Villa Zaira – Tenuta Le Franite
This post is also available in: Italiano (Italian)
This complex dates back to the early ‘700 inside a 42-acre estate featuring a park full of flowers and rare plants, holm oaks (Quercus ilex), and Mount Tabor oaks (Quercus ithaburensis), as well as a peculiar, ancient tea room decorated with three arches. At the centre of the park, there’s the ancient baronial palace that belonged to Baron Nicola Lopez y Royo, one of the Dukes of Taurisano.
The avenues lead to a recently restored riding track equipped with several guest facilities; there is also an old tennis court which can accommodate up to 500 people, an ancient charcoal pit surrounded by a large wood, a pine forest with an expanse of English lawn, an ancient oil mill full of historical artefacts and decorated with beautiful starred vaults (700 people can be accommodated here). Not to mention, two orange groves with an English lawn, two cloisters with arches leading to the oil mill, and a large parking lot created among the olive trees adjacent to the estate.
