Borgo Roccantica - Self-catering apartments in Lazio
Via dei Nobili 37, 02040 Roccantica, Rieti
Lazio,
Italie
This 17th-century family castle is now divided into various residences to form a private hamlet. Grand del Conte is heirloom-filled and each room decorated with original frescoes. It's big with two living rooms, two fireplaces and a huge kitchen, knockout vistas from each window and its own terrace too. Sweet La Torretta (a tower on three levels) is the perfect love nest for two: nicely private and charmingly informal.
Easy-going La Mola was the old olive press, now it's a comfortable space for four with lovely exposed stone walls. There's a lush garden too, which you can rent separately, filled with roses, cypress trees, spaces to sit and a pool. Dine at their very good restaurant in the village, Le Cucine del Borgo.
This is lovely countryside, perfect for gentle walks. Strike out for olive tours and tastings, abbeys, Roman archaeological sites, hiking, cycling or catch the train to Rome — the staff can help with everything.

Local points of interest from Marzina Marzetti:
Points d'intérêt locaux proposés par
Marzina Marzetti:
- The Borgo is marked by history throughout the centuries and is renowned for its interesting architecture, which is proudly preserved. The elegance and luxury of the residence and the enchanting nature of the Sabina countryside blend together harmoniously.
- The ancient kitchens of the palace now host the LE CUCINE DEL BORGO restaurant; a unique setting given the charm of the surroundings and the panoramic view over the green, unspoilt valley below, still well away from busy tourist routes. Menu 25-35€.
- During the summer months there is usually a fête of some sort on in different villages across Sabina, often two nearby on the same day, due to a lack of communication and traditional rivalry between neighbouring village.
- Rome is easily reached by train in 45/50 mins from Poggio Mirteto station -15 mins away with free parking. €9.30 for a day ticket covering the train, metro and all buses in the city -
- The hot mineral Spa at Viterbo is a favourite with visitors, as is the old papal town itself, whereas a visit to the waterfall at Marmore could be combined with a visit to the Franciscan monastery at Greccio.
- The fascinating "monster" park at Bomarzo is about an hour away with gigantic statues and grotesques from the 16th century.
