Villa Cimbrone, Historic villa and gardens in Ravello, Italy
Villa Cimbrone occupies a rocky promontory 365 meters above sea level, offering panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and Amalfi Coast.
The villa dates from the 11th century and underwent extensive renovations by Lord Grimthorpe in the early 1900s, incorporating architectural elements from various Italian regions.
The villa gardens feature classical statues, temples, and the Terrazza dell'Infinito, a belvedere adorned with marble busts overlooking the Gulf of Salerno.
Visitors can access the gardens daily while the villa functions as a five-star hotel with a Michelin-starred restaurant called Il Flauto di Pan.
The property served as a secret retreat for Greta Garbo in 1938 and attracted numerous intellectuals including Virginia Woolf and Winston Churchill.
