3. Idyllic home with archways and garden, in castle near beach, 1 hr from Venice

Step through time at La Vicinia, once the medieval tribunal, now transformed into a captivating stone residence within one of Italy's most ancient private castles.
The moment you arrive, you'll feel it – this isn't just accommodation, it's living history. The same noble family who built this fortress over a millennium ago still lives in the castle's main building.
Strassoldo itself has earned its place among "I Borghi più Belli d'Italia" (Italy's Most Beautiful Villages), an exclusive designation recognizing its extraordinary historic and aesthetic value.

The heart of La Vicinia is its lovely arched portico – your personal retreat for candlelit dinners or lazy afternoons with a book and glass of local Friulian wine.

Your private garden, enclosed by a wooden fence, offers the perfect blend of intimacy and privileged access to the castle's beautiful gardens.

Inside, 150 square meters of thoughtfully restored interiors spread across two levels.
Downstairs, a welcoming living space with elegant wooden furnishings invites conversation and relaxation.
The kitchen balances rustic charm with modern conveniences for creating memorable meals with local ingredients.
Upstairs, two bedrooms – including a unique "open concept" sleeping area – feature handcrafted furniture painted by local artisans, with en-suite bathrooms providing contemporary comfort.

The surrounding village of Strassoldo is no tourist trap, but an authentic Italian borgo where crystalline spring waters flow through verdant gardens, creating an almost mystical atmosphere.
Being recognized as one of Italy's Most Beautiful Villages means it has preserved its architectural integrity and cultural heritage in ways that few places can claim.

Your strategic location puts you just 20 minutes from Grado's golden beaches, one hour from Venice's iconic canals, and minutes from Roman Aquileia. Slovenia and Austria wait just beyond, perfect for day-tripping through a fascinating cultural crossroads largely untouched by mass tourism.

La Vicinia isn't simply accommodation – it's your temporary home in a living, breathing piece of Italian nobility, where the whispers of a thousand years of history enhance every moment of your stay.

Available year-round, unlike our other castle residences and pet-friendly.
