The Amalfi Coast Retreat

With views over the bay, this villa, which has been divided into two self-contained apartments, has a dream location. Take in the vistas from the pool and terraced gardens – there’s also a large outdoor dining space, a barbecue and an enclosed outdoor kitchen with a wood-burning oven. Both apartments, one on the ground floor and the second on the first floor, have a cosy living room, a dining room, a well-equipped kitchen and access to a terrace. Also, the third bedroom in each of the homes has a sofa bed. Well-placed for sightseeing, this place is 2 kilometres from Sant'Agata sui Due Golf and just over 10 kilometres from Sorrento and the ancient ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum.

Home truths:
*This villa is divided into two self-contained apartments. Both apartments have a third bedroom with a sofa bed. Apartment one has access to a good-sized terrace, and apartment two, which can only be accessed through an outdoor staircase, has a smaller terrace.
*The garden is set on a hillside with many steps.
*There's a gas barbecue here.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair. You'll need to request them in advance.
*There's parking space for several cars available – however, due to the narrow driveway, smaller cars are advised.
