About this property

Delightful apartment in the greenery that tells the story of the Sabina

Located in Roccantica in a private internal village of the 17th century, with a splendid communal garden, this apartment offers the charm of ancient houses and the colors of an uncontaminated landscape. Completely renovated, it has all the amenities for a comfortable and relaxing daily life. Spread over two floors, it places on the lower floor a large living room with fireplace, a spacious equipped kitchen and a bathroom. Going up the staircase, where you can appreciate the rock walls and a lovely trompe-l'oeil, there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The context is full of opportunities for recreation and interest, but it also offers tourists tired of well-known and very popular itineraries the opportunity to take alternative routes, reserving unusual and fascinating aspects.
To the quiet of the place and without a car it is possible to associate excursions on foot in the above Sabini Mountains, discover naturalistic and cultural itineraries, practice free climbing.
For those who love walking the Sabine Mountains, beautiful even if not very high, are rich in panoramic ridges, vast woods, deep ravines, several interesting small plateaus. The dolina of King Votano reserves great charm, reachable with a walk of about an hour following a path located a few meters from home. The Sabines as a whole are a small universe of quiet, pleasant excursions, full of suggestive corners and vast panoramas and therefore there are numerous excursions that can be chosen, supported by the maps and books available in the house. A few meters from home, a beautiful cliff surrounded by a landscape full of greenery and woods allows you to choose a total of 34 climbing routes.

Traveling a few kilometers by car you can reach suggestive villages of the Sabina. The paths of the Via Francigena and the Cammino di Francesco wind their way a short distance away. Culture and mysticism are mixed by visiting the Franciscan places of the Reatina Valley, arranged in the shape of a cross: Poggio Bustone, Fontecolombo, Greccio, La Foresta. Day trips allow you to visit numerous cultural centers and sites: Rieti, Orte, Orvieto, Bomarzo, Villa d’Este and Villa Adriana in Tivoli, etc. Rome can be reached in just over an hour, even by train.
During the beautiful spring / summer season in all neighboring countries the evenings are full of cultural and gastronomic events. For more than 20 years in Roccantica, the "Middle Ages in celebration" has been taking place. Favored by the typically medieval structure of the country, the scenography of that time is reconstructed through costumes, foods, music, processions, games, towers, portals, auctions, flags, torches, torches. To complete and in harmony with this typically medieval scenario, the "HISTORICAL CRAFTS WORKSHOPS" are opened, wrought iron, basket maker, medieval tailoring, wooden objects, painting, typical products, artistic glass processing, miller, weaver, stonecutter.

Trekking e storia medievale
Luogo incantevole tra natura e storia. La proprietà è esattamente come descritta, anzi più bella. Il piccolo giardino esterno, non a uso esclusivo, completa il comfort dell'appartamento. Non consigliato a persone con difficoltà motoria. La cortesia del proprietario è squisita. Certe gentilezze non sono dovute ne scontate. Grazie per il piacevolissimo soggiorno.

fantastisch
Dieser Ort ist etwas ganz Besonderes. Dass er etwas abgelegen und ruhig sein würde, konnten wir an der Beschreibung und an Hand der Karte erahnen. Trotzdem fühlt man sich in keinster Weise einsam, eher ein wenig wie aus der Zeit und wie in einem kleinen Paradies. Der schmale parkähnliche Grünstreifen gehört zu dem Gesamtkomplex eines größeren Anwesens, den wir mitnutzen durften, und der von der Veranda aus einen wunderschönen Ausblick auf das hügelig bergige Umland der Sabiner Berge bietet. In der Dämmerung tummeln sich zahlreiche Mauersegler idyllisch in der Luft um die alten Gemäuer von Roccantica. Die Wohnung ist wie auf den Abbildungen sehr charmant und heimelig eingerichtet. Geschlafen haben wir sehr gut. Die Schlafräume im oberen Geschoss blieben kühl, sofern man die äusseren Fensterläden tagsüber geschlossen ließ. Das Untergeschoss war selbst bei geöffneten Fenstern und Türe stets kühl, da die Räume teiweise in den Felsen gebaut und dennoch nicht feucht ! sind. Die Kommunikation war stets zeitnah, sehr bemüht mit nützlichen Tipps und liebevollen Hinweisen. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen mit selbst gebackenem Kuchen, vielfältigem Obst und gekühlten Getränken. Das haben wir bisher in dieser Art nie erlebt und hat uns sofort das Gefühl gegeben, angekommen zu sein. Reizvoll und pittoresk war die gut einstündige (einfach. Nur mit gutem Schuhwerk!) Wanderung zur dolina de revotano. Alles in allem ein sehr entspannter und erholsamer Aufenthalt!!!

Visiting relatives in Cantalupo
With many rentals under my belt, this property certainly ranks near the top. Giovanna was wonderful, a fresh tart, cold dairy products, and all of the other amenities she provided ensured a wonderful stay. The views were wonderful, and the location ideal. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for old world charm, with all of the modern amenities.

Guardando il paesaggio
Una casa molto bella, confortevole, in un'area riservata e silenziosa di Roccantica. Un grande giardino condiviso dal quale osservare il paesaggio dà alla casa un'apertura sul monte Soratte, colline verdissime e un'ampia veduta delle valli e paesi della Sabina. I proprietari sono gentilissimi, sorridenti, disponibili. Se si cerca un po' di pace, di silenzio, di vero relax, questa è la casa giusta.
