Location

The villa roja is located on the very outskirts of the ancient village of Airole, about eight miles inland in the direction of Cuneo from Ventimiglia. Originally the customs house marking the French/Italian border, the building has been the subject to substantial renovation and refurbishment to create the ten luxury apartments which now form "Roja Valley".

In the immediate vicinity there are three other residential properties, all with stunning views of the Roja river valley. The medieval village of Airole itself, which clings to a rocky outcrop on the eastern valley wall, is about a mile away. A charming settlement of some 600 folk, its narrow, winding streets offer typical Italian atmosphere, and a limited selection of shops, restaurants and services. At the pinnacle of the village, there stands a wonderfully ornate church, from where a virtually uninterrupted 360 degree vista of the valley below can be enjoyed.

Travel south from the village, and you reach the interesting historic settlement of Ventimiglia - translated this means '20 miles', and signifies that Ventimiglia is 20 miles from the old French/Italian border, which used to be marked by the river which forms the boundary to Nice airport today. The town of Ventimiglia is on the main SS1 from Nice to Genoa, and is also on the main trans-riviera motorway the A10, running from beyond Nice to beyond Genoa.

Monaco/Monte Carlo lies just about 20 miles west of Ventimiglia. Here a totally different shopping experience can be had! For many years, Monaco and particularly Monte Carlo have become synonymous with wealth and fame. Visit the world renowned casino, stroll through the many interesting streets which are packed with extremely up-market shops specialising in designer names merchandise, visit the marina and take in the spectacular views, or simply sample the history and culture of the old town of Monaco itself, perched atop a rocky cliff.

The Villa is situated in the floor of the River Roja Valley on level ground, surrounded by densely-wooded, steeply-sloping hills.

Extensive landscaped gardens surround the property, with the river Roja forming its western border. This is approached via a gently sloping, short walk through the gardens. Two sandy beach areas have been created here for relaxation.

In the grounds there is swimming pool, for the use of apartment owners and their guests.
