About the host
Hosted by Larry Kading
We have always searched for the perfect home in Italy in a region we dearly love. It took 7 years to find this place, and find it is a place the family can enjoy and experience a home life away from the busy city life in California. As travelers, we also know that experiencing local life outside of the Hotel experience is a key part to understanding the place you are visiting, so it's our opportunity to share the experience with others that are looking for a few days of 'living like the locals'.
Why they chose this property
Nestled in the small village of Slivia, the location provides central access to beaches, nightlife, and the bustling city of Trieste. From here it's easy to get to Slovenia, Croatia as well as north to the Alps and Austria. For those looking for day trips, Venice is 90 minutes by train with fast trains to Milan and other northern cities.
What makes this property unique
Unlike a newer house, this Villa is over 200 years old but fully restored for comfort, while keeping the original charm. For those wishing to emerse themselves in Italian living, and relax at night with a glass of wine, or local grappa while enjoying the friendly nature of this village of 130 people. Just 20 meters behind the house in the village is a 4 star local restaurant, with Osmisa's being open during certain periods of the year.
