The apartment is a recently restructured attic consisting of bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room (with comfortable bed-settee).Simply, but tastefully decorated, with tiled floors and wooden beams, it is completely self-contained with its own large terrace for eating, sunbathing or admiring the view. There's a staircase from the garden, where where in the summer you can cool off in an attractive small pool with waterfall.
The local station of Pianabella is only 4km away, where regular trains run to Rome - so avoiding parking and traffic problems in the city.
We have our own olive trees and vineyard, and sell wine, oil and other local produce.
