The Casa di Lugo was born in the early 1900s as a building annexed to the railway, now no longer existing. Over time it has been renovated and inhabited by both improvised artists and well-known personalities in the upper Vicenza area, until in 2001 I was lucky enough to fall in love with it and get hold of it. I renovated it trying to preserve its style, even the external decorations are the original ones. For me, the light that comes in through the many windows is what makes it extremely welcoming.
"La Casa di Lugo" is a single house on three floors.
On the first floor a small rustic-style kitchen, a bright dining room, a comfortable living room.
On the second floor a double bedroom ideal for singles or couples and two communicating double rooms ideal for families.
On the ground floor there is a tavern with a fireplace and an adjoining reading room.
Outside a garden to live on hot days.
All spaces in the house are accessible. You can cook, watch TV, listen to music or read a book in one of the common rooms. If you choose to book one of the rooms, you will have the opportunity to share the other rooms with other guests, otherwise if you prefer you can book the whole house for yourself.
Lugo di Vicenza extends from the plain to the mountain. From the house, a walking path leads to the center of the village where there are shops, restaurants and the Church of San Giovanni Battista dating back to the early 1900s. On the hill of San Pietro near the seaside town stands the Church of San Pietro born at the beginning of the 15th century.
From the house you can easily reach the banks of the Astico stream, which can also be seen from the windows, ideal for peaceful walks.
In Lugo di Vicenza stands Villa Godi-Malinverni built in 1540, the first undisputed work of the architect Andrea Palladio, with important pictorial works and a fossil museum. Palladian inspiration is also the Villa Piovene Porto-Godi with a park of inestimable naturalistic value.
A few minutes drive from Lugo di Vicenza are the towns of Thiene, Breganze, Marostica and Bassano, small and characteristic with their historic alleys, full of works to discover.
Just 30 km from Lugo di Vicenza there is also the Asiago plateau or also known as the plateau of the seven municipalities.
