Ravello
Built in 1927 into the cliff below Ravello, for 30 years a celebrated writer's home, in nearly three hectares of parkland.
The villa
A clifftop house built in 1927, reached by a private tree lined avenue below Ravello. It shared its fir and cypress parkland with Villa Cimbrone, later became the home of a celebrated American writer, and has hosted artists, musicians and royalty.

More than 1,000 sqm of rooms and terraces, all facing the sea. Six suites with fine furniture and art, every bathroom with chromotherapy. The largest has a four poster bed, a living room with fireplace and a panoramic veranda; two deluxe rooms have fireplaces and 100 sqm terraces; two suites have a Jacuzzi cut into the rock.
Outside
Nearly three hectares of landscaped gardens and parkland run along the cliff. The pool overlooks the sea from a furnished poolside terrace, and there is space for dining outdoors.
