La Doccia


The houses with swimming pool at La Doccia are just 5 minutes from the town of Ambra, but seem away from the world, hidden in a clearing in a wooded valley, along a stream, that runs next to the houses, and a little waterfall. Its position gives the Doccia a romantic and almost fairytale ambience, characterised by peace and intimacy.

La Doccia boasts a big swimming pool and a large garden. Furthermore, guests will find an old wood burning pizza oven, which they can use to prepare delicious pizzas and roasts of all kinds. Next to the oven is a small covered terrace with a masonry barbecue and a worktop where they can prepare their meals.

The estate consists of two old farmhouses:

  • The Mulino (3 bedrooms, sleeps 6) housed, until a century ago, a water mill dating back to the Middle Ages. Today, after restoration, its rooms still retain the atmosphere of the past.
  • The Granaio (2 bedrooms, sleeps 6), now a bright and spacious abode, was in the past used for grain storage and as a barn for tools.
