The Cardinal’s Villa: a memorable stay among stuccoes and marmorini.
Villa Il Galero, built in 1691, is an enchanting example of Venetian architecture, just below the Rocca of Asolo. It’s situated on a sloping terraced land, from which you can enjoy a spectacular view of the surrounding plain, on a clear day you can see the Euganean Hills and Venice. It has a strategic position, surrounded by the tranquility and greenery of its centennial gardens and trees, just a few steps from the historic center.
The prestige and the uniqueness of Villa Il Galero is given by the harmony of the architectural proportions and by the sophisticated decorations on the stucco walls and Venetian marbles of the 1700s well preserved that give an elegant and bright appearance.
At the heart of the property there is the Villa with the two porticoed barns that were the old stables and barns now transformed into rooms, and a Chapel.
In addition to the pleasure of walking or taking advantage of the relaxation areas in the garden, there is a beautiful swimming pool with a panoramic view. An opportunity to relax, a romantic moment, a cultural or culinary journey through the Asolo hills of prosecco.
