Villa Sogara: A Historic Retreat in the Heart of Valpolicella
Escape to the enchanting green hills of Valpolicella, just 10 km from Verona, and discover Villa Sogara, a stunning 15th-century villa steeped in history. Once graced by the presence of the Emperor of Austria in 1857, this meticulously restored villa, built upon Roman ruins, offers a luxurious and tranquil retreat.
Villa Sogara boasts six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a dining room, a library, a music room (complete with a piano), multiple living rooms, and inviting outdoor relaxation areas. A brand-new swimming pool and terraced sunbathing patio overlook 10 hectares (25 acres) of picturesque vineyards and orchards, creating an idyllic setting for relaxation and exploration.
Experience the Best of Veneto:
This prime location is the perfect base for discovering the wonders of the Veneto region. Explore historic cities like Venice, Vicenza, and Padova, or venture to the shores of Lake Garda.

Attend one of Verona's many international fairs, such as Vinitaly, Fieracavalli, or Marmomacc, or experience the magic of the Opera Festival in the Arena.
A Culinary Haven:

About the host
Hosted by Tommaso Peruzzi
This historic house was bought by my great-grandparents in 1929. Now it's my duty to preserve it in good shape and to share it with those who appreciate this kind of mansion and look for the charm and tranquility of the Italian countryside. I had great days staying here with my grandfather when I was a child, and I hope that you will be able to have such a good time too.
Why they chose this property
The villa is located in the countryside in the eastern part of Verona. While the property is surrounded by vineyards of Valpolicella wine DOC production area, it has also easy connections to the motorway, to the airport, and to the cities of Verona, Venice, Padua, Mantua, and Vicenza. Lake Garda is also easily reachable in about 30 minutes, and with the new high speed railway lines also Florence and Milan are an easy destination for a daily trip. Guests come here to spend a vacation in a true piece of history, and also for many activities like food and wine tours, art history, museums, Opera, and so on.
What makes this property unique
Are you tired of hotels that look pretty much all the same? Have you had enough of cold, impersonal courtesy? Do you appreciate historic houses furnished with original antiques and surrounded by nature? Are you in search of a 'home away from home' to spend time and relax with your family and friends, surrounded by lush countryside? Villa Sogara is the place to be!
