Do you have a group of friends who all want to book a villa in Italy together ?
There are hundreds of beautiful Villas on the net. Location is probably the most important factor as 8 people will not wish to be in an isolated area where you have to drive miles to a restaurant every day and night.
1. NEAREST TOWN
What part of Italy do I wish to be in – there are 21 regions – e.g. don’t go to a region just because it is a lovely house – find out what the nearest town is like and the surrounding towns are like.
2. ACTIVITIES IN AREA
Do you like the coast and lakes for swimming or country and mountains for walking – e.g If you all get bored in the country make sure you are near a busy tourist town.
3. SHOPPING & RESTAURANTS
Do you want to be near a pretty village or easy access to eating out and shops e.g. make sure the nearest town is a not an industrial center. Find out how long it takes to drive to some of the famous tourist centers as well as the nearest supermarket.
4. DRIVING or BUS ACCESS
Will driving be difficult in the area if you are not used to driving on the Italian roads eg in the Chianti area – there are some very windy hilltop roads – Amalfi coast & Cinque Terre driving is not for the faint hearted or inexperienced drivers ( Amalfi can be a nightmare due to narrow cliff edged roads and hairpin turns)
