Whether to come to sojourn:
For the hospitality of a calm ancient abode, for the serenity that offers the surrounding
landscape, for the facility of connection with the Venetian greatest cities of art as Venice and
Padua.
to taste wines typical of the hills of the hinterland Euganeo, to relax in the healthy and iodized sea of the Sottomarina, for the ecological walks in bicycle along the banks and the shores of the river
Bacchiglione.
Complex architectural risalente at the end of the 1500 beginnings 1600, constituted by Main Villa, Barchessa and other
nearness.
It rises along the left shore of the river Bacchiglione.

workers, cortivo and brolo", over that from a good number of
fields.
In 1661
his/her Brothers Zuani and Alvise Contarini, ridichiarano the ownership
"Sunday House with his/her different Factories and Brolo."
The possessions will be reinstated by the Contarinis up to 1740, but in 1782 with will of Nicolò
Contarini, part of the good of this family to Giacomo and Zuandomenico Almarò Tiepolo (and under the name of Almarò we find again them in the inventory 1809 Napoleonico).
This noble family would have built in 1445, a rural church entitled to S. Maria Maddalena, that passed to the Contarinis in 1695 and subsequently to the family I Lift up.

hearth.
Behind the threshing floor or
courtyard, completely surrounded by tall boundaries and hedges of laurel on I break down
it, the barchessa completely restored you/he/she is
characterized, as the villa, from a moulding indented under the leaning one of the
roof.
The eight arcs that are
followed, more the others two to the sides create a tall parvis from the trusses in wood paved in
stone, here the plan superior once is leaned out reserved to barn and
stores, now turned to inn with six great rooms with bath, luxuriously you
furnish.
