Villa Sabrina sits on a hillside north-east of Rome overlooking a splendid patchwork of vineyards, olive groves, field and woods. Comfortably furnished and well-designed for a large group, the villa offers two living areas, both with fireplaces, that open to the garden. Terraces at three different levels offer quiet, sunny spots for contemplating the view, which is perhaps best enjoyed from one of the loungers around the private swimming pool just below the house.

The charm of this relatively unknown area, with its olive groves and vineyards and its proximity to the medieval and renaissance delights of Italy, makes it a wonderful place for a perfectly relaxing and cultural holiday. In this idyllic location you are within easy reach of the hill towns of Etruria, Umbria and southern Tuscany: Orvieto and Assisi are each only 70km away, while Rome and Viterbo (with all the Etruscan sites) are within 50km. Also within easy reach for day trips are Perugia, Arezzo and Siena. The train station, with a frequent service to Rome, is in Stimigliano only 8km away and the small town of Poggio Mirteto, with shops, restaurants and good weekly markets is 6km. There are many excellent traditional, and untouristy, restaurants located in this area and a supermarket is within 3.5km. Tennis, golf and horseback riding are all available within a few minutes’ drive.
