RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE. Villa degli Ulivi is set in a wonderful olive grove in the heart of the renowned Valpolicella, on the Veronese hills. A villa of an elegant modern style, it is characterised by large windows giving a sense of continuity between the interior and exterior and creating true works of art that furnish and complete the living area. Once past the entrance gate to the property, a dirt road flanked by olive trees leads to a large parking area which then leads to the main entrance of the villa. The welcoming living area with its large windows, from where you can admire the panoramic view of the Verona skyline, the elegant furnished terrace, the outdoor areas and the swimming pool, set in an olive grove, make the property the ideal destination for those wishing to spend a relaxing stay in a bucolic setting, yet very close to one of the most beautiful cities in Italy: Verona. Villa degli Ulivi is located less than 10 km from the heart of the city; it is a short distance from Lake Garda and in an excellent position, too, for exploring the whole Valpolicella region, where you can visit numerous wineries and let yourself be conquered by the marvellous landscapes and medieval villages. In a small apartment with independent entrance live the caretakers who manage the daily maintenance of the garden.

Amenities and feature
Location and distances
Villa degli Ulivi is located in the renowned Valpolicella, on the Veronese hills, a fascinating area where the beauty of the countryside, dotted with precious vines, historic villas and medieval borghi, combines with the important food and wine tradition of this area which boasts a vast selection of internationally famed wines. Furthermore, this territory has been, since ancient times, a fulcrum for the extraction of precious tuff, which can be perceived by walking in the historic centre of Verona, known as Urbs Marmorea, City of Marble; the amphitheatre itself, the Arena, symbol of the city of Verona was built with local stone. Villa degli Ulivi is the ideal destination for all those who do not intend to only visit cities of art such as Verona (10 km), or characteristic cities on Lake Garda such as Sirmione (40 km), Padua (95 km) or Venice (120 km ) but also a place to explore the countryside and the food and wine traditions. The property is easily reached from the airports of the region, those of Verona (18 km) or Venice (135 km). The closest motorway exit, Verona Sud, is 18 km away. The Verona station is 9 km away while just 5 minutes away are the supermarkets and main shopping areas of Verona.
