Idyllic Villa, with Infinity Pool, 4 air conditioned bedrooms & stunning views.

Nestled atop a picturesque hill, and cooled by summer breezes, our stunning villa overlooks the charming town of Torino di Sangro on the unspoiled Trabocchi coast in Abruzzo. Surrounded by spectacular views of the Majella mountains and the ocean, you'll find the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday.

Our villa allows you to enjoy the local Italian village's charm from a comfortable distance while providing ultimate privacy and relaxation. Swim in the refreshing infinity pool during the day or take a 10-minute drive to one of Italy's cleanest and safest beaches for a wonderful beach experience.

Only recently upgraded, the house now includes a children’s bedroom with four bunks and an additional bathroom/laundry room. We have also installed air conditioning in all the bedrooms and strengthened the management team.

Set within private, gated grounds, our villa features a beautiful garden and several terraces for al fresco dining. Inside, the open plan kitchen, dining space, and comfortable sitting room with large leather sofas offer a cosy space to unwind together.

The ground floor houses two double bedrooms and a bathroom, while upstairs, you'll find the master bedroom and bathroom alongside a minstrel's gallery with a comfortable sofa overlooking the local village. The roof veranda, furnished with a wrought iron table and chairs, sets the perfect stage for evening suppers in the balmy summer air.

For those seeking more energetic activities, a games room provides table football and table tennis matches. This space is also ideal for children, as we offer two sets of bunk beds in the games room for extra sleeping arrangements. A new bathroom is located off the games room, housing a washing machine for your convenience.

Villa Farfalla is designed for guests who appreciate a harmonious and respectful atmosphere, providing the perfect balance of relaxation and enjoyment in the heart of Abruzzo.

When you're ready to explore beyond the villa, indulge in delicious local food and wine at the nearby bars and restaurants.

Here are some of the nearby attractions (short drive) you can enjoy during your stay:
Vasto – Explore the lovely hilltop town of Vasto, overlooking the Adriatic Sea. The medieval center boasts beautiful 15th-century buildings, the impressive Caldoresco Castle, and the Palazzo d'Avalos. Wander through narrow alleyways and discover Roman excavations, churches, and mansions. After exploring the old center, relax on the nearby golden beach or enjoy a delicious lunch by the Vasto Marina. In the evening visit charming boutiques, artisanal shops, and local markets which offer a unique selection of Italian crafts, fashion, and delicious regional delicacies.

Beautiful Villa
We had the most enjoyable stay at the villa. We arrived with grandparents and small children. It was the perfect spot for exploring on day trips or staying put and enjoying the pool/scenery. Something for everyone. Thank you vivien for sharing your beautiful sanctuary with us.

Stunning tranquil location
We had a lovely time in Villa Farfalla. The property is very well equipped, our 3 year old especially loved playing with the toys and in the pool. We enjoyed visiting the local village, nearby beaches and relaxing by the pool while taking in the stunning views. Ana Maria and Domenico also provided us with a fabulous seafood dinner. Thanks for your hospitality, Alex.

Stunning Villa & location
We really enjoyed our stay in Abruzzo, Villa is gorgeous and the views are spectacular. Torino di Sangro is a typical Italian Village and the people are so friendly and polite. Beaches are spectacular with a visit to a local Trabocco a must, but be prepared to eat lots. My Mother is Italian so am used to the culture and food but this was our first trip to Abruzzo, we love it so much we are hopefully going to buy a holiday home in Torino di Sangro, Vivien you should start getting commision! AnnaMaria and Domenico who look after the property are also lovely and helpful. Not everything os open in October but a great time to just chill and the weather is still better than an English Summer. We had a lovely holiday, can't recommend it enough.

Bella!
A fantastic villa with stunning near 360 degree views whose owners are attentive and a pleasure to deal with. We stayed with my family of 5 (two teenagers and a 10 year old) together with two further adults: there is enough space outside to all enjoy the fantastic sea and mountain views and just enough space inside using a sofa bed for all to sleep comfortably. The kitchen is an adequate size and is well stocked with pans and utensils. All bedrooms have good beds and linens and there were numerous board games to supplement the TV (which we didn't turn on). The local village is near but the walk is not suitable for the aged / infirm / moaning teenagers who might view the steep roads as a chore! The local beach is well organised with loungers and has lovely sand and a calm sheltered swimming area. Local restaurants are of a good quality and reasonably priced (e.g a main pasta for 10 Euros, a meat or fish for <15 Euros, wine around10 Euros etc). Vivien the owner is a pleasure to deal with and we understand that she spends some time at the villa herself when possible - the place has the feel of a home rather than a straight rental property and is all the better for it. There is a games room with a table tennis and table football games for any rainy days (we had zero) and the pool is a really good size with offset steps and a fixed depth (about a metre?) For non-swimmers there is the attached spill over smaller pool which is shallow and would be great for little kids to splash in. The local management contacts are a pleasure to deal with and Domenico can be your personal chef if desired (he's an ex restaurateur from Milan!). Try to learn some Italian before coming to this area as it is very local but this was exactly what we wanted! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and its the only villa we've stayed in where we would seriously consider a return visit - highly recommended!

Beautiful as every year!
We enjoyed two wonderful weeks in this beautiful place. We have had tropical days, unusual here, and so we cooled down in the pool or at the sea. Italien food is our favorite, we enjoyed dinners with "cozze e vongole" and fresh fish. This year was our 3rd here, we feel very comfortable here and have recommended this wonderful place to our neighbours who will visit Torino next year.

Stunning. Loved it. Beautiful views and a great week taking in the village festival
I love it every time I go. I adore the peace and quiet. Wonderful wildlife with swallows coming every evening to drink from the swimming pool. As the sun sets behind the ancient village it is almost as though one is in another world.

Villa Farfalla
Nous nous sommes rendus dans les Abruzzes pour retrouver la famille.la maison est très bien placée entre montagne et mer et le beau temps au rendez-vous (entre 22et28 degrés).Le ménage mériterait d’être approfondie mais l’accueil a été très sympathique malgré l’heure tardive de notre arrivée, nous avons bien apprécié la bouteille de vin qui nous attendait ! La maison était très agréable et nous avons passé un très bon séjour

Merveilleuse semaine à la villa Farfalla
Nous avons passé une semaine en famille dans la très belle maison de Vivien et tout était parfait. Même avant d’arriver, tout est facilité par sa réactivité et sa gentillesse. On voit tout de suite que c’est une vraie maison de famille : d’abord parce qu’il n’y manque rien et surtout parce qu’elle est pleine de charme. Le cadre est splendide, avec une vue imprenable sur Torino di Sangro (très beau coucher de soleil à admirer de l’une ou l’autre terrasse). Il y a toujours un endroit adapté selon l’heure de la journée pour profiter au mieux du soleil ou de l’ombre. La piscine est magnifique et quelqu’un vient s’occuper de son entretien. Mais la mer n’est qu’à 10-15 minutes. Mi-septembre, l’eau était à 28°, donc nous en avons bien profité. Un peu plus loin, il y a de très belles randonnées à faire dans les Abruzzes, de tout niveau et nous ne nous attendions pas à voir des animaux (cerfs, sangliers) ni à ce que la région soit si verte, on est quand même en Italie ! Mais ça on se le rappelle dès qu’on mange une glace à la gelateria de Casalbordino… Nous sommes venus de Normandie en voiture donc c’est un très long chemin, mais tous les cinq y reviendrions volontiers.
