DescriptionCasetta della Volpe is a rare rental villa that offers complete seclusion from external influences for small groups wishing to enjoy a relaxing break. The villa is simple, cosy and fully equipped with stunning views over the sea and Capri from the two bedrooms on the first floor which open onto a shaded balcony, perfect for afternoon siestas. The living room of the villa which features a live rock wall and open fireplace opens onto a large paved panoramic courtyard and portico area. A further covered outdoor area houses a wood fired barbecue and pizza oven. A short stroll through the lush gardens leads to the swimming pool terrace with stunning views over the sea and Capri. The area is equipped with sunbeds and a shaded pergola to assure a relaxing vacation. The surrounding area is has been recently declared National Park; it is close to a WWF protected zone and is therefore a veritable oasis of peace, immersed in the Mediterranean scrub and olive trees. A downhill walk, very steep at the end, starts at the entrance gate and leads to the pebbly beach below. If you feel too lazy to go down for a swim, you can plunge into the small pool and enjoy the sea view from the semi shaded terrace or just relax in the garden under the shade of an olive tree. The property has ample external spaces, 300 sqm of garden, a firewood pizza oven, in - built barbecue and even a bocce field. Not suitable for toddlers! The road leading to Casetta della Volpe is challenging to drive down due to its steepness and narrowness, but the secluded and private nature of the house makes the effort worthwhile. An alternative parking space can be found at 300 mts from the villa. For further details on this villa's accommodation, please click on 'technical description'

Nearby localities
As the road winds out along the coast road from Sorrento, one can tangibly feel that they are leaving the city way of life behind. Local farmers (contadini) with their three wheeled Ape Utes tend the olive plantations that string along the rocky hillsides and every now and again the bushes open up to the stretches of blue sea and sights of Capri and the other islands in the Bay of Naples.> more
Situated approximately 14 km from Sorrento, the Nerano locality is a primarily agricultural/fishing community which in bygone centuries had little to do with its neighbouring areas. Blessed by a pleasant climate, wonderful outlook and steep sun drenched descent towards the sea it was the enclave of a small number of families who handed down their interests from generation to generation. Even today it is possible to recognise a strong concentration of the family surnames.> more
