Surrounded by many points of interest, such as the Archangel Michael Basilica in Monte Sant’Angelo , a medieval , quiet, picturesque village , the Umbra Forest , the white high cliffs of the coast nearby , set on the edge of Adriatic Sea , the house makes a perfect base from which to explore the area.
It is very nicely suited to simply relaxing in a quiet place , on a hillside overlooking the sea , although the beaches (both rock and sand) are not far from here and there are hill towns and a plenty to discover in the valley and nearby mountains.
Built in 1878 to be the summer dwelling of a noble and cultured family from this area , Villa Basso , nowadays , has been carefully renovated by the new owners who really love this place.
In 1964 the villa has been the set of the british movie " The high bright sun", whose main character was Dirk Bogarde.
