Udine is the capital of the province whose once Venetian dominance is evident in the architecture. To the North is the walled village of Venzone totally razed to the ground by the earthquake of 1976 and Bordano where you can visit the House of the Butterflies, one of the largest in Europe. Visit the Val Resia whose people has origins dating back to the 7th century when some Polish nomads wandered into the valley and settled. They still retain ancient customs no longer practised in Poland. To the south of Forgaria lies Spilimbergo whose Mosaic School is one of the finest in Europe, guided tours are available, prebooking is necessary. Further north on the Austrian border lies Tarvisio, Sella Nevea and the Pramollo pass where there is excellent skiing. To the south the beaches of Sabbiadoro and Grado. Something for everyone.

Reviews for this vacation villa rental in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy

Rating
4 out of 5

Excellent base for sightseeing and relaxing

work Leeds, West Yorkshire, UK
Review Submitted: December 28, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
We spent a week at Il Bosco during the summer and found it to be well equipped and very central in the region which made day trips easy to lots of places. San Daniele, famous for its ham is a must as too is Venzone, a walled city to the north. There is so much to see in this beautiful alpine area. A place we will visit again.
Owner's Response: I am so pleased you enjoyed Il Bosco and thank you very much for your review. I look forward to welcoming you back this year.
