This
lovely country house, dating back to the early 19th century,is located 35 km north of Rome,in a beautiful area called Sabina,well-known for its extra virgin olive oil. The
farm house has recently been restored, yet maintains its antique style:
some of its features, such as the internal staircase and the beamed
ceilings are original. On
the ground floor the old stable has been turned into a billiard room; in
the portico, connected to the billiard room, there is a wood-burning
oven, excellent for baking pizza. Outside, in the huge garden, there is a swimming-pool (13m x 7m) a private
five-a-side football pitch and several games for children (swings etc.).
The
farm house is structured as follows(8 people):
Places to visit
Tivoli:
20 mins. By car from Palombara. An interesting visit is to the famous
Villa D’Este, well-known for its symmetrically terraced garden,
landscaped with splendid vegetation and enlivened by waterworks (Bernini’s
Fontana del Bicchierone is famous the world over). When
in Tivoli a visit to Villa Adriana is also worthwhile. This is one of
the largest and richest among the imperial Roman villas, built in the
year 125 by the Emperor Hadrian: here he reconstructed the places and
buildings he had loved the most in his extensive travels throughout the
Roman Empire. A visit to the Abbey of San Giovanni in Argentella, a national monument near to Palombara is also a must. (Call 0774 –66093 before going).
