Villa in Via Milano, 13, Orotelli,

The area sits on the basaltic and granitic uplands of central Sardinia, with the higher mass of the Gennargentu range farther to the east and visible only at greater distance. The Tirso river system runs through this part of the island, and the Lake Omodeo reservoir lies within this wider inland zone. Within about 15 km the main place of size is Nuoro, which has the province’s main services, shops and hospital. This part of Barbagia and the Marghine is known for pastoral landscapes, cork oak and holm oak countryside, and for Sardinian traditions linked to herding and village festivals.
