Located in Valpolicella area, the luxury farmhouse is the ideal location for wedding reception. Surrounded by an elegant garden and the romanesque 13th century chapel, it is an utterly hospitable place to stay with your guests.
The Villa which was built in the Valpantena valley following the wish of the Counts Giusti in the fifteen hundreds, is only 6Km from the centre of Verona.
The first document of the Villa dates back to January 3rd, 1255, when the ownership passed from the Visconti family to the Benedictine monastery of San Michele. Important noble families, the Verità and the Nichesola, gave the villa its definitive structure during the course of the fifteenth century and the first decades of the following century. In 1500 the Counts Murari of the Corte di Brà commissioned the frescoes of the interior.
The present building dates back to 1400, while the frescoes on its inside walls and the noble chapel date back to the sixteenth century (school of Paolo Caliari, known as the "Veronese"). Worth noticing is the Hall of the Emperors, whose ceiling, frescoed with grotesquerie decorations, is the work of Bernardino India, who collaborated with Andrea Palladio. The park, of romantic taste, with the path that leads towards pleasant resting places, and the intimate Italian-style garden, towards which all halls of this ancient villa open, become an oasis of tranquility and grandeur and help widen the interior spaces even further.
A sixteenth-century Venetian Villa, between sweet, rolling hills and the vineyards of Valpolicella lies this patricians residence and national monument. It was built throughout different ages, from Roman age to Renaissance. Surrounded by a big and luxury park, the villa hosts rooms, two award restaurants and a wine cellar.
