Villa Clova

Villa Clova is set in its own extensive grounds and this really is the place to come if you want to get away from it all. The villa isn’t overlooked so offers all the privacy and seclusion you could possibly want. It sleeps 12 people across 6 bedrooms – 4 in the main house, and 2 in a self-contained guest house.

The décor is formal but modern – think gilt edged portraits of someone else’s ancestors, wooden beams and exposed stone walls, but with luxurious bedrooms and bathrooms, WIFI, and a state of the art kitchen with all the bells and whistles, along with an extra drinks fridge, just in case. The kitchen is excellent – fully fitted units, modern appliances and all the utensils you (or someone else) might need to cater for your guests. There’s also a separate pantry and utility room with washing machine and dryer, so all the clutter generated by a large group can be tucked away.

There are two sitting areas – one a more formal living room, and the other a family room – both have TVs and sofas, one is more of a chill-out room, and the other might be where you’d sit with a G&T before dinner – unless you’re out on the terrace admiring the view of course. Here on the ground floor there’s also the first of the bedrooms, a double with en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower - if you’re travelling with older members of the family, this could be the perfect room for them. Up on the first floor are three further bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and air-conditioning – one a double, the remaining two are twin bedrooms.

Across in the guest house, you’ll find everything you need – it’s completely self-contained from the main house, so ideal if you’re two families holidaying together and want to keep a little independence. There are two double bedrooms here, both en-suite, a fully fitted kitchen with all appliances, and a sitting room with TV.

Outside, the property really comes into its own – private grounds with their own private roads, swimming pool, and a choice of terraces with different seating areas, BBQ – the list goes on! So all you need to do is decide, a dip in the pool, or a trip to the beach? Either way, you’re away from the crowds, so you won’t see another soul, perfect!
