VISITS, ACTIVITIES AND PLACES OF INTEREST

The position is strategic, giving easy access to many important historical cities such as Padova (with its splendid hills, the Colli Euganei), Vicenza, Verona (an hour's drive) and Venice (15 minutes by train, 20 minutes by car and 40 minutes by bus). It also offers the possibility of pleasant trips to the sea (Sottomarina 40 km/ Jesolo 60 km) or to the mountains (Asiago about 100km). It is the ideal point of departure for visits to the very famous Brenta Riviera with its stunning villas (notably the Villa Pisani at Stra) set in beautiful surroundings, that were, in the 1700s the luxurious meeting-place for the Venetian nobility. Mini-cruise boat trips between Venice and Padova through the Doge's lands with the burchiello are also fascinating. (For information see http://www.ilburchiello.it/.). The owners will always be or the charming streets of Dolo, either on foot or on bicycles which we can provide free of charge. For nature-lovers, in the month of September, you have an opportunity to assist with the grape harvest (with wine-tasting included, naturally!).
