Villa Mandriola is a luxurious Venetian Villa which the owners, who still live in one of its wings, have decided to open to a limited number of guests. The guests can enjoy the exclusivity offered by this kind of accommodation and enjoy its relaxing tranquillity even though it is so close to the centre of Padova. The central part of Villa Mandriola is available to the guests who have the possibility of weekly stays or for a minimum of three nights, year round. A sojourn in Villa Mandriola is especially pleasant because of the quiet, pristine natural park. A special place, which has been preserved for centuries, where you can rest and relax spending time doing activities like swimming or walking in the Villa’s woods, or riding a bicycle along the channel’s bank which runs nearby, leading to the Euganean Hills’ Park. Its geographical position is certainly very convenient: it is adjacent to the centre of Padova, along the National Road 16, in the direction of the nearby Monselice and en route to Este. ROOMS Four double bedrooms, two single rooms and four bathrooms with bathtubs are reserved for our guests, who will enjoy the atmosphere that this particular Venetian Villa conveys. The bedrooms face the romantic park and are furnished with historical furniture, but modern comforts are not neglected. All the ceilings in the Villa were painted at the end of the 19th century. The ground floor is formed by a long and bright gallery, a wide, completely equipped kitchen, a large fireplace, a dining room which can host 12 people, a decoratively painted living room where you can relax, watch TV or listen to music, another living room “degli stucchi” where you can play board games and find useful information on the surrounding area, and a bathroom. Immersed in the quiet nature you will forget about city life even when taking advantage of all the comforts. A walk in the woods is an opportunity to experience the gorgeous scenery and to discover the scent of the flowers in the springtime or mushrooms in the autumn.
