I am looking for one of these, Villa Valguarnera, owned by Princess Vittoria Alliata di Villafranca, a title bestowed on her family in 1609 by the King of Spain. I’d heard about the property from an old friend.

What to do in Villa Valguarnera?

Villa Valguarnera is one of Italy’s most outstanding National Historic Landmarks. Villa Valguarnera offers 3 outbuildings and the main building for rent. Princess Vittoria Alliata is an Italian writer, translator and journalist.

Is this villa Valguarnera from Dolce & Gabbana a real place?

I recognise the building from a Dolce & Gabbana video starring Sofia Loren and directed by Giuseppe Tornatore, which follows the extraordinary renovation of a roofless, pigeon-infested ruin. In reality, Villa Valguarnera lies somewhere between the bohemian and the magnificent.
