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.
