This was our second time staying at the Casale and it was just as charming as the first! Such a relaxing and beautiful place. George welcomes you and makes you feel like family. The location is perfect as we did day trips by train to Rome and Florence. We also enjoyed the quaint towns located nearby all while enjoying the views of the vineyard and olive groves. I highly recommend staying at this property. As we told George - we will be back!

We had a magnificent multi-generational family gathering at the Casale Sonnino. The house was perfect for our needs. We had a delightful breakfast each morning, ample room to gather & visit, lovely grounds... just a perfect setting. We were close enough to the city to see the sights, while enjoying the countryside. The house itself was gorgeous... exactly what we had in mind.The hosts put us in touch with excellent tour guides & helped us organize outings... I especially recommend the cooking class. Finally, George & Claire helped me organize a final night birthday dinner for my wife that was an absolutely delightful!We look forward to our next trip to Rome, so we can visit the Casale again.

Excellent location, outside of Rome with stellar views in an amazing, historical family home. The history was so interesting to hear, and we loved getting to know our hosts, George & Claire. The home is beautiful and very comfortable, with inside and outside lounging/eating areas, and is a great location to explore from - we were glad we kept our rental car.

Wonderful property. Absolutely beautiful location. A 10-minute ride to the metro station & you have a straight shot directly into the heart of Rome. Which is great, but you could also spend your time here at the Casale & surrounding areas and simply wonderful experience without the craziness of Rome. We will be back!

Beautiful Views and Comfortable Stay for Leisure in Italy

The Casale was excellent. Nestled far enough from Rome proper to remain a paradise when we needed it; yet close enough to nearby towns and Rome to allow us to enjoy them at our leisure. Our first thought when arriving was that the photos didn't do the Casale justice. George was incredibly helpful throughout our stay with excellent recommendations and advice. We could not recommend the Casale experience more highly, and would seriously consider revisiting in the future!

July at the Casale

We absolutely loved our stay at the Casale! We adored George - and Taki and Mr. Big as well! We loved our time with each of them - George is such a sweetheart and made us feel like we were right at home. The grounds were breathtaking and the home was beautiful. The morning breakfast was so delightful, the surrounding views made you feel like you were waking up to a fairytale setting! We are so grateful for our time and hope to return to the Casale in the future!

Fantastic stay at Casale Sonnino

Casale Sonnino is an absolute jewel in the countryside outside of Rome. The grounds are simply gorgeous with vineyards, olive trees, flowers, lemon trees and spectacular views all the way to Rome. And the house itself is warm, inviting, comfortable and full of antiques- you can feel the wonderful family history throughout the home. George was a great host, creating an exceptional meal for us when we first arrived, conducting a fascinating tour of the caves below the house and answering our many questions. We visited Rome by train several days and the surrounding towns on the other days. It was a fantastic week and we are so happy that we spent it at Casale Sonnino!

Our wonderful Italian Villa experience

A huge shoutout to George and Claire for a truly fantastic villa experience. Special thanks to George for going the extra mile for our group and being flexible with last-minute changes to our plans. The villa was as advertised and we all had a wonderful time. Included breakfast was wonderful each morning. Sitting outside in the garden was relaxing and the scenery was spectacular. This villa is a real treasure and has been in their family since the 1880s. Part of the original foundation is 2000 years old.

Magical Italian Views from every point!

Incredible true villa w/vistas from every part of the property. From landscaped vineyard views, to cobbled walkways, vast Italian cypress trees lining a cinema-like driveway, olive trees in abundance, and rooftop area to add to the experience. Hard to do this stay without Georgio to concierge certain referrals and guidance. Fabulous stay, vintage design and decor worthy of a palace. Great location to wineries, ristorante, and bigger Frascati town loaded with shops, trattorias, conveniences. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime escape to Italian countryside living and many nearby hilly towns. Nearby train stations make for an easy trip to Rome (30 minute ride) and more Italian culture along the way.

Unforgettable !

Our stay at Casale Sonnino was perfect. I took my mom and two of her lifelong friends to Italy and we spent 6 nights at this beautiful villa. Our hosts, George and Claire, were like old friends. We felt warm and welcome the minute we arrived and we were all a little sad to see our time come to an end. Just a short and easy train ride from Rome, we had the best of both worlds. The hustle and bustle of the big city during the day and the peaceful privacy of the villa in the evenings for conversation and fellowship. Thank you George and Claire for opening your home to us and allowing us to have the experience of a lifetime.

Perfect

An overall amazing property that’s conveniently located in the Rome country side. The villa is located 5 minutes from the train station and was so easy to navigate for our first Italian family vacation. Claire and George were excellent hosts and were full of great information. George had dinner and drinks with us one evening and let us know all about the local history. Claire set us up with our tour guides and recommended a professional chef to cook for us one evening. Jo was an AMAZING cook, very reasonably priced, and that dinner was one of the highlights of our trip. Very close to the grocery store. Would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property.

Easter Week 2022 visit to Casale Sonnino

We had a wonderful experience at Casale Sonnino and the local region. George, Claire and their local friends Michelle and Jo were incredibly kind and accommodating and went out of their way to make our experience special and memorable. The entire week was just an incredible delight full of unexpected experiences and highlights. THANK YOU! Casale Sonnino is a beautiful property and met and exceeded all of our expectations. The accommodations were excellent, the vineyard, olive orchards and outdoor garden areas were peaceful and beautiful. The Roman tunnels under the property were a fun and unexpected highlight. We enjoyed the access to the surrounding areas including Monte Porzio, Frascati, Colonna, the Tusculum Roman ruins, Lake Nemi, Castel Gondolfo, Marino, Grottoferrata, Tivoli, Hadrian’s Villa and of course Rome.

Great Villa Near Rome

What a wonderful stay we had at Casale Sonnino. Before the trip, Claire was very helpful in providing suggestions for our trip. During our stay, George could not have been any more accommodating in making recommendations and ensuring our visit was a success. The Villa is spacious with beautiful views in all directions. We travelled to Rome multiple times during our stay and could be downtown using Google Maps easily with 45 minutes. We found wonderful restaurants in the neighboring town and the best Gelato ever in Frascati, a short drive. During your visit, make some time for George to take you to the caves on site. It is well worth it! If we returned to Rome, we would definitely call Claire and George to set up a return stay.

Thanksgiving at the Casale

The Casale provided our family with a home away from home for Thanksgiving! With our daughter studying abroad in Rome for her fall semester, we wanted a place for our family of 7 to spend time in Rome as well as together as a family for the holiday. With well appointed bedrooms for all, spacious living and dining areas, beautiful grounds and wonderful hosts it was the perfect place! The nearby small towns and proximity to Rome let us explore the countryside and the city so easily. The Casale’s housekeeping staff was simply wonderful! Imagine waking up each morning to the scent of warm buttery croissants! A highlight of our trip was most definitely our pasta making class and Thanksgiving dinner at the Casale with local chef, Josephine Wennerholm. Jo was so wonderful to work with in planning and executing a pasta making dinner at the Casale for our group of 7. A few evenings later we had a most elegant Italian style Thanksgiving dinner prepared and served by Jo. I highly recommend having her cook for you at the Casale! All in all our stay was beyond our expectations and we cannot wait to visit again!

Casale Sonnino 2011

Our family rented Casale Sonnino for a week during October 2011. We were six adults and a toddler (all family). We chose Casale Sonnino for it's size and location. Making the choice of Casale Sonnino and triple-checking all of the home details was handled easily and graciously by the owner Claire Treves Brezel. Upon our arrival at the casale you will need a rental car for your stay, our expectations and more were immediately met and exceeded. The physical home was just what we hoped for and the staff, headed by George (Claire's brother) were more accomodating than one would reasonably expect. This remained so throughout our stay. The ladies who maintained the home and cook, if so requested, as well as George's workmen gave attention with warmth, care and good-humor(especially needed if no one in your party speaks Italian). If one individual stands out it would have to be George. The "buck stopped with him" and he knew it. Our days were filled as we chose. We took the train into Rome, very easy, and toured the surrounding area filled with history and beauty. There was never a dull moment unless we so chose. Returning each day to Casale Sonnino was a welcome respit filled with excellent local wine purchased from local vintners minutes away and food purchased locally and prepared by ourselves or the staff ladies that was delicious each and every meal. Bedtime was always preceeded by the last bit of wine outdoors on the deck overlooking Rome and it's lights in the near distance. This is a holiday not to be missed by anyone wanting some "dolce vita". We will be returning guests.

Now a treasured memory

Our family stay at Casale Sonnino was beyond anything we could have imagined! True, we expected what we saw in the photos and what information we had from our conversations with Claire. . . so our expectations were pretty high. The surprises lay in the reality of immersing ourselves into the authenticity of Casale Sonnino: the kindness & genuine warmth of George and the staff; the awesome beauty of the vistas that surround the Casale for miles & miles into the distance (think -- acres of undulating plains, vines & olive trees, with metropolitan Rome ever in the background); the cleanliness & comfort of bedrooms & baths; the incredible luncheon spread -- such a welcomed surprise upon our weary arrival; the delectable coffee/breakfasts (& cleanup) served with smiles & laughter every morning; the most welcoming outdoor pergola where we could so beautifully relax as a group; the top floor deck with it's unsurpassed views of Rome & the countryside; George's fascinating tour of the caves beneath the house & his family history; the riotous bloom & scent of spring flowers (jasmine! evergreen! roses!) ever present in the air. All in all, Casale Sonnino literally reverberated with pulse of our family group of eleven!! Our group spent an incredible week listening to music, visiting the many villages close by (Tivoli gardens a personal favorite), claiming a quiet spot to read or chat or discuss the day, using the charming & well-equipped kitchen to prepare meals. What we loved most was the drop-dead gorgeous views of the Italian countryside from every window & every garden resting place! Like living in a painting! We are grateful to Claire & George for sharing such a paradise with our family. . .

Casale Sonnino: Picture Perfect

I think our family would say we left part of our hearts at Casale Sonnino. The experience there exceeded all of our expectations. We were in Italy to attend a wedding nearby, and not only was the Casale conveniently located, but it was beautiful, historic, spacious, immaculately clean, and had the most gracious hosts and staff. Prior to our trip, Claire was exceedingly helpful with travel tips, directions and recommendations for restaurants and local attractions. Upon arrival, we were delighted by the beauty of the villa and the surrounding gardens, olive trees and grape vines. We found ourselves mostly sitting in the picturesque garden in our free time, although the common areas of the villa were gorgeous with high ceilings and fabulous, comfortable furnishings. Did I mention the bowls of Italian fruit jelly candies in every room?! Our three young adult children were thrilled to find they each had their own charming bedroom, in addition to our master and another for friends. And, daily housekeeping! Breakfasts were truly a highlight of our four days there. George and his staff laid out a beautiful spread every day, including dark Italian coffee, fresh seasonal fruit, creamy yogurts, and delectable pastries that George personally selected from a local bakery. And, more! Windows open, birds chirping, and a long gracious dining table set with table linens that were just what you’d expect to find at a charming Italian villa. George was the consummate host. Besides being helpful with directions, train tickets, recommendations, and dinner reservations, we all loved hearing from him about the history and workings of Casale Sonnino. He gave us a fascinating tour of the Roman tunnels underneath the property. On our final day, he kindly accompanied us to find an ATM, and get gas for our rental car before his daily pastry run! Above and beyond. We wholeheartedly recommend Casale Sonnino for anyone wanting to experience the Italian countryside, while being ten minutes away from nearby Frascati, and a quick, 30-minute train ride away from Rome.

What a fantastic alternative to staying in central Rome! Hosts George and Claire were fabulous. The home is spectacular and nestled in the Italian countryside near Frascati. Quick, 30 minute train ride from Frascati into Rome for about 2. The staff had a wonderful breakfast ready for us everyday and was ready to assist with laundry, etc. The home is plenty big for a large family (we were a total of seven adults) with spacious common areas. George is extremely knowledgeable about the area with things to do and restaurant recommendations. There are some ancient, Roman caves under the property with some incredible history and George was eager to give us a guided tour. He even shared some terrific sorbet he had made the evening before. Felt like family. The communication both before and during our stay was great. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you George and Claire!

Casal Sonnino was the highlight of our stay in Lazio!

Casale Sonnino was a marvelous getaway for us and 6 of our friends and family. The approach to the house is along a lane through the olive groves, and the house itself is quite elegant and comfortable. One of the couples who stayed with us remarked that the bedrooms are so comfortable they didn’t want to get up in the morning. The breakfasts were an enticement to do so.There are comfortable sitting rooms and we also had access to the kitchen, when we wanted to cook, as well as a roof patio. The 2 ladies who work at the house were friendly and helpful and quite willing to work with what Italian the guests had, and George, the. host, is generous with his time and his help (and his tales of the house and the underground caverns are interesting and entertaining). George took us with him to watch the olive harvest of the day get turned into oil at a nearby frantoio, and then we got to taste the fresh oil! While we were there, there were also 2 dogs and a cat (outdoors only) who were quite entertaining. The closest train station (Colle Matteo) is just 5 or 10 minutes by car, and the train to Rome takes about half an hour. The famous Castelli Romani are also very close by car. Overall, the Casale Sonnino itself was the hightlight of our group's stay in Lazio!

Roman Holiday! Special place to stay and experience true Italian culture and hospitality

Our pre-stay interaction was fantastic. Claire took care to make sure we knew everything about the villa and was helpful with information and suggestions to make our stay perfect. She communicated all of our special requests and needs to George who was more than eager to fulfill them. The on-line listing doesn’t do the villa justice. When you arrive at the huge gates and drive down the narrow gravel path you are left intrigued. Then you turn a corner and see the magnificent home. We were greeted by George and his little dog pal Taki. George gave us the tour and went over the basics. What a gracious host! George was available for ANYTHING we asked day or night regardless of the situation. He went out of his way and above and beyond all expectations on a daily basis. When you enter the home it is like opening a book. Every room is like a new chapter. The first rooms were nicely furnished and comfortable. Perfect for congregating with friends or watching a little TV. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything you could possibly need or want. Eventually you make your way to the back of the villa…the dining room, formal living room and sitting room are gorgeous. Head upstairs and you find five well appointed bedrooms and two full baths. (I forgot to mention there is also a single bedroom and full bath downstairs). The staff was also amazing. Every morning when we woke up a lite breakfast was served in the grand dining room. The women were busy working on cleaning and doing laundry. When we left for the day they would clean up after breakfast, head upstairs, make the beds and leave fresh towels. This was all done without any intrusion. They were in a word AMAZING. We were In Italy during a severe heat wave which made the weather uncomfortable but there were fans in each room which helped cool things down in the evening for a good night sleep. If you plan to visit during the summer months expect to be hot! The villa is a working farm so expect workers to be milling about doing their daily chores. It was like a perfect Italian dream. The location of the villa, just outside of Frascati and a short ride into Rome was perfect. We were able to day trip to many historic locations. I recommend renting a car during your stay. It makes everything more convenient. The only thing left to say is thank you Claire and George for making my Italian dream vacation a reality!

The Perfect Wedding!

We hosted our wedding here in June 2018, and the spot was absolutely perfect. We had around 50 guests, and set it all up outside. Guests were also able to go inside to relax or up on the terrace for a great view. Not only that, but Claire was able to help so much in any part of planning we needed, and while we were there George would do anything to make sure things went smoothly. Such great people as hosts who truly care about their guests! Our guests were saying it's the best wedding they've ever been to, and nothing would top it. It was intimate but fun! We also had 8 people stay at the Casale which really helped with fine tuning wedding details and not having to stress about leaving. The breakfast they set up is delicious and in a beautiful open room. We were all very comfortable and honestly wished we could've stayed more. We highly recommend it and hope we can return in the future!
