Around Asolo
Villa Cipriani can be the starting point for reading a part of the Veneto where art, architecture and landscape change within a few kilometres.
Palladio, Canova, Carlo Scarpa
At Maser and Fanzolo you meet the villas of Andrea Palladio; at Possagno the Gypsotheca and the Tempio of Antonio Canova; at San Vito d’Altivole the Brion Tomb by Carlo Scarpa. Different eras, yet the same corner of the Veneto, and together they make a coherent cultural itinerary. Bassano del Grappa adds its Palladian bridge and its relationship with the river Brenta; Marostica brings the celebrated Piazza degli Scacchi, its chess square, into its historic centre.
Hills and wine
Asolo gives its name to Asolo Prosecco Superiore DOCG. Further east, the landscape rises into the Prosecco Hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Cellar visits and tastings can become one of the most rewarding things to arrange from the Villa, especially when the concierge can suggest producers and handle bookings.

[PLACEHOLDER] Asolo remains the place to come back to: the village on foot, the garden and the restaurant make it easy to alternate days out with time spent at the Villa.
