The Yellow House is a haven of peace and tranquillity in the heart of rural Italy, it is secluded, hidden in a valley and surrounded by mature trees and beautiful views. The villa itself is elegant and comfortable and perfect for self-catering holidays for family groups. Happy days can be spent enjoying the large private pool, playing badminton or bocce on our outdoor court, exploring the 10 acres of land and fishing in the stream. On rainy days you can play table tennis, table football and pool, or cards on our card table. There are lots of board games, a small library and for the little ones, a dolls house.
THE POOL
The large private swimming pool (5m x 15m) is situated on the side of a hill and below is the winding valley. The pool is secluded and peaceful. The pool is surrounded on one side by a mature rosemary hedge providing a beautiful perfume in the evenings and fresh herbs for cooking. The marble patio is spacious with plenty of room for 8 sun loungers. Most of the area around the pool is unshaded and there are no parasols but for those who prefer not to sunbath, there is shade in the afternoons by the pool under an oak tree where there is a stone table that seats 6.

There is a lantern in the oak tree which provides the perfect light for intimate suppers or large parties in the evening.
