A magnificent large Italian villa rental comprised of two semi-detached properties, in the desirable and conveniently central Italian region of Sabina. Nestled in the rolling landscape of pine forests and farms, this is a territory still untouched by mass tourism, yet only 50 kilometers north of Rome.
The semi-detached layout of the villa allows for large groups to travel together and take advantage of the stunning communal spaces whilst maintaining an element of privacy. The interior is entirely renovated and stands up as a prime example of classical Italian colonial style, complete with grand chimney and fireplace, and Tuscan terracotta floor tiling.
The entire villa is suitable for wheelchair access and has a disabled bathroom, a rare feature in such a traditional property.
The villa sits within the privacy of a neatly manicured garden with its own pergola dining terrace and private swimming pool, perched on a hill over looking the vineyards and olive groves. All guests also have access to their own tennis court, table tennis and a five-a-side football field.
The estate that Villa Rovani is located within produces a notable red wine and the local Sabina olive groves are credited with a reputable extra virgin olive oil. This property is the perfect base from which to explore the many nearby cultural and artistic attractions of central Italy, with Rome, Tuscany and Umbria all within a short day trip.
***For larger parties it is possible to rent sister properties Villa Conconi (sleeps 8) and Villa Faruffini (sleeps 8) virtually next door - please follow links for more information.

Location:
Villa Rovani lies in the Italian central region of Lazio, in a perfect position for sightseeing Rome and day trip to Umbria and Tuscany.
The Estate is located 7 km from the quaint town of Magliano Sabina, in the enchanting Sabina area, a region still authentic and unspoilt. In a landscape of gentle hills where agriculture is in perfect harmony with the surrounding nature, you'll find an array of Roman villas, medieval castles, churches and abbeys and many remains of Italy's historic, cultural, architectonic and artistic past.
Riding schools, golf courses, natural bolted cliffs for free climbing, along with Mount Terminillo, ski resorts offer sports lovers an uncontaminated natural environment in which to play.
The area is alive in winter and summer for the holiday of your choice. Along pleasant country roads, you can easily reach breathtaking places still unknown by tourists. The motorway A1, instead, gives you an easy and quick access to some of the most important artistic sights of central Italy, such as Viterbo, Orvieto, Spoleto, Perugia but also Arezzo, Florence and Siena. Rome itself is just a few miles away, and very easy accessible, in less then one hour, by train or car.
