Collections, art and culture at Villa Amapola

The beautiful location of Villa Amapola is complimented by our unique and eclectic collections - of original art, ceramics, glassware, books, films, music and - the jewel in the crown - our collection of miniature perfumes.

This exquisite collection was put together by our family over many years, and some of the bottles are quite rare and precious.

Colourful glassware, Granadian stained glass lamps, and Moorish ceramics add to the eclectic effect.
