“Steeped in traditional history, this charming country retreat was built by Italian musician Fabrizio De André. A romantic setting with beautiful garden and vine covered balconettes. This secluded escape is perfect if you want to go 'off-the-grid' and completely disconnect.”

Hotel review

Surrounded by olive trees and set in a peaceful scenic garden, you can't help but feel relaxed when you set eyes on this charming vine covered country house. Bedrooms have a rustic feel with vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams. Antique furniture and Sardinian art adorn this secluded dwelling. Hammocks and lounging spots around the grounds are perfect for switching off and immersing yourself in a book. Owners Fabrizio and Angelica have good local knowledge if you wish to go off exploring or enjoy the hotel restaurant, it serves wild boar and local Sardinian wine.

L’Agnata di De André

Arriving at this ivy-draped hotel buried within a thickly wooded valley is like stumbling on a precious secret. It was the Sardinian home of the late Fabrizio De André, one of Italy’s most loved troubadours, and today offers discreet luxury and total repose in a stunning setting.
