Villa Campanella is located in the beautiful Sabina countryside, just an hour northeast of Rome and close to the southern Umbrian border. This lovely independent villa with generous garden grounds and private pool is situated just 2km from the walled medieval village of Collevecchio in Sabina. The house offers lovely views over the valley and hills that are the countryside of Sabina. Shops, café bar, restaurants and pizzeria can all be found in the local village.
The Villa itself is set in generous garden grounds with lawns, pergolas and sun terraces to provide plenty of alfresco options. The private swimming pool is set into the garden near 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 also 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. Within about a half hours drive are the Sanctuary of Vescovio, the Abbey of Farfa, the Church of S. Andrea in Flumine and the Church of S.Elia (Nepi). The natural reserves of Tevere-Farfa, Monte Soratte, Monte Rufeno, Selva dell'Amone and the WWF Oasis of Pian S. Angelo and Alviano with Monti Reatini are within easy reach and offer bird-watching opportunities and hiking.
Other wonders for the interested and independent traveller include the Etruscan Necropolis around Viterbo, the Marmore Falls, the Monster park of Bomarzo, the cities of Viterbo (with its thermal baths), Tuscania and Civita di Bagnoreggio. The lakes of Bolsena, Vico, Martignano and Bracciano and the cities of Todi, Spoleto, Narni and Orvieto are about an hours drive. Also within easy reach for day trips are Perugia, Arezzo and Siena.
The train station at Collevecchio has a frequent service to Rome. Collevecchio, a fine medieval village in its own right, has shops, restaurant, bank, post office, pharmacy and supermarket market. There are many excellent traditional (and untouristy) restaurants located in this area, great food and they won't eat into your holiday funds too much.
Collevecchio also has a direct connection by train with the airport Leonardo da Vinci (1h 40m). The trip into Rome on the same train takes 1 hour.
