Veneto Villas & Venice Apartments

Veneto and Friuli is on the north eastern corner of Italy and is a region of tremendous contrasts. This region encompasses the striking beauty of the Dolomite mountains, the eastern side of Lake Garda which is Italy's largest lake, the rolling Euganean hills, and wonderful cities such as Verona and Venice as well as the coastal resorts of Jesolo Lido and Bobione Pineda which make up the Northern Adriatic Coast.

Veneto is a region in the north of Italy that offers some of the greatest locations of Italy to spend your holidays. The most well known is the city of Venice, one of the most romantic cities in the world and a place where we have some fabulous Venice holiday apartments to rent in some stunning old Palazzo's. For holidays in Veneto Authentic Italy offers self catering accommodation in Veneto villas near Lake Garda or Veneto apartments around the Valpolicella area, which is, of course, famous for its wine; not just Valpolicella but also the nearby Bardolino and the other range of wines including the magnicicent Amarone.

The Romas built frontier towns on the fertile land of Veneto-Friuli on the silt deposits, and these towns have survived until today and are known as Padua, Vicenza, Verona and Treviso. These towns prospered under Roman rule due to being key to the network of roads.

Today Veneto as a successful wine exporter as well a stextile producer and agricultural region. The Friuli area is a fouce for more modern technology as well as being largely agricultural as a base. Bothe Veneto and Friuli are popular tourist areas despite having to compete with the ever popular and romantic Venice. So it is well worth considering a holiday in Veneto or vacation in Friuli.

Let's not forget that Verona is also the home of Romeo and Juliet and the balcony where the famous scene allegedly took place, can be visited by tourists by entering through a covered gateway into a courtyad very close to the centre of the old town. Padua in contrast is an old university town with a famous academic history. The city is rich in history and has many attractions. Vincenza is the great Palladian city and also a very wealthy city. It is celebrated all over the world for its splendid and varied arhcitecture. There are also elegant shops, boutiques and cafes to visit. For an authentic Italian vacation rent a Veneto apartment or veneto villa in the countryside or one of these lovely cities.
