Italian flair & a game of boccette at Eveline's! At B&B Vol Liefde, we saw how Eveline not only immersed her guests in romance and sunshine, but also introduced them to a quintessential Italian billiards game: boccette!

In its beautiful location in Italy, the billiard table became the scene of a cheerful and strategic battle. With colorful balls and pins on the table, the game revolved around precision, tactics, and, above all, lots of fun.

What is Boccette? A billiards variant where players try to get their balls as close as possible to the blue ball. But be careful: hitting the pins with your own ball results in penalty points! It's all about clever positioning and thwarting your opponent, Italian style.

Just play it at home! You don't need a special Italian table—boccette can be played on a standard pool table. Ideal for home or at your favorite pool club.

• The central red cone is right in the middle.
• The four white cones are arranged in a cross shape around it, each 12cm away from the red cone — one above, one below, one to the left and one to the right.
