About this villa rental
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.

We had a great stay. We were with a group of five people and there was plenty of room for everybody!
The view is amazing. You can see the mountains and the see. Because of the high temperature the swimmingpool was nice and refreshing. Check in was quick and easy! They tell you everything you need to know about the house.

We loved our stay here, the villa is situated in a stunning spot and within an easy drive of Pescara (take the coast road from the airport for a slower journey with lovely views). Everything was well equipped and comfortable. Vivien and Rob were on hand for any queries and very responsive. If you like wildlife you will be in your element as you can sit by the pool bird watching for hours, the view extends all the way to the sea, and there are various walks from the villa as well. We had four adults staying, with plenty of room. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Villa Farfalla was a beautiful place to spend10 days! Our kids enjoyed the pool every day. The views are breathtaking. Vivien and Domineco were quick to answer any questions or concerns. The newly installed air conditioning was a pleasant surprise.

We spent one week in that beautiful Villa. I have so say only one week because we all agreed we could have spent month. The house, garden and pool were very clean and you could just feel comfortable and relax. I have experienced so many accommodations in my life but this one was really the best ever. Even the contact with the owner Vivien (not living in Italy) was very warm and friendly. She is really taking care of her guests and want them to enjoy their vacations. To make a long story short I can just recommend spending vacations in that object. Thanks to Vivien, Ana Maria and Domenico!

We loved staying in this property. We had originally intended to just stay a couple of days as a stop over but loved it so much that we drove back over 200 miles to stay there again! The house is comfortable, warm and well equipped. We stayed in January and were very warm and comfortable. The views all around the property are absolutely magnificent. The owner, Viv, is very easy to communicate with and Ana Maria and her husband very helpful and supportive without being at all intrusive. Thanks so much to Viv for a wonderful couple of stays.

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.

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.

My family 2 adults and 4 children had a wonderful time in Villa Farfalla. Lots of sun made the pool a magnificient place to cool down from the early morning to the late evening. Everything worked fine and we enjoyed our stay wishing for more time, when we had to leave.
Perhaps we will come around again, but then for 14 days.
Ana Maria was very helpful with all our questions.
We are now looking back at lots of good memories.
Thanks !!!

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.

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!

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.

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.

Met by the friendly and helpful Ana Maria, whose husband Domenico also cooked a super meal for us. The villa is beautifully laid out - breathtaking views, especially from the wonderful infinity pool. Well-equipped, Viv and Rob have thought of everything, including lots of information about the surrounding area. None of us wanted to leave and all of us want to come back!!!
