From the road between Cannigione and Arzachena, a 2km private driveway lined with ancient cork oaks, junipers and maquis leads you all the way up to the house. Built according to the principles of ecological architecture, the house is situated on a hillside overlooking an expansive, partially rocky landscape dotted with the vegetation that is so typical to Sardinia.
With a surface area of 180m2 and featuringa large swimming pool and a spacious garden with numerous seating areas, the house can accommodate a party of six with plenty of room and privacy. Cars can be parked on the grounds.
Here, on top of the hill, far away from the noisy streets, you can truly unwind in peace and quiet. In a few minutes, however, you can reach the small yet lively villages of Cannigione, Arzachena, San Pantaleo and Porto Cervo, the centre and harbour or Costa Smeralda with its colourful markets, cosy cafés and restaurants (you will find recommendations and contact details inside the house), speciality shops and supermarkets, magnificent seaside promenade and charming playgrounds. Sailing and motorboats, as well as bicycles and motorcycles, can be rented in the harbour of Cannigione. Here, you will find the docks where sightseeing boats lie at berth waiting to take you to the 60 islands making up the Maddalena Archipelago. Other parts of this island world are protected by natural conservation laws. Corsica can be reached in only one hour by boat, and Sardinia’s most beautiful beaches with their picturesque coves – where you can go snorkelling, scuba diving or windsurfing – are located a mere stone’s throw away. You can also go hiking or horse riding through rugged landscapes, or explore ancient cities and fortifications, prehistoric nuraghi and excavations. Further north towards Palau, you will run into the world-famous archaeological windsurfing village on the Isola dei Gabbiani peninsula with its many windsurfing, diving, kite and sailing schools for children a well as adults.
Back at the house, peace and quiet await you – and a large swimming pool to cool off in! And on days when the weather is not so pleasant, there are plenty of board games in the house for players of all ages. There is little chance indeed of anyone suffering from boredom here!
