Tetti Marquet is situated in lovely countryside just 10km north of Lake Bolsena at the crossroads of Lazio, Umbria and Tuscany. Bordered to the north by Tuscany and to the east by Umbria, Tetti Marquet is situated in a land of gently rolling countryside, volcanic craters that gave rise to the beautiful and uncontaminated lakes of Bolsena and Vico, thermal pools popular in the treatment of various ailments, and medieval hilltop villages (Civita di Bagnoregio, Orvieto, Orte, Montefiasone, Tarquinia to name but a few). Within 10 to 15 minutes drive, the lake of Bolsena provides beaches for lazing or picnics, a wide range of water sports, spectacular scenery, and three thriving little towns: Bolsena, Marta and Capodimonte. Bolsena, on the northern shore, has a museum full of Etruscan relics, a fine medieval castle, some picturesque alleys, and two early churches. Marta and Capodimonte, on the southern shores, are pretty little villages with beaches and from where you can organise boat trips around Isola Bisentina. To the south is Viterbo, with its papal palace from the middle ages, and the Tarquinian necropolis. To the west, Sorano and Pitigliano, of medieval importance and interest, are picturesquely striking up on their hills. For gastronomic delights you are offered the chance to sample the local specialities: various lake fish in the villages around lake Bolsena, mushrooms at Vetralla, chestnuts at Soriano al Cimino, beef steak at Monteromano, wine at Montefiascone and many, many more! The beaches of the Maremma can be reached in under an hour and Rome, Siena and Florence are all accessible for day trips. A holiday here is to experience a taste of the old Italy and an extremely laid-back way of life. The owner is very welcoming and particularly knowledgeable about the region and is happy to suggest some very interesting local excursions.
