The villa is only 20 Km. distant (appr. 14 miles) from Rome. It can be reached by bus from the village of Monte Porzio, by train from Frascati (only 3 Km appr. 1.8 miles distant). Moreover, if you have a car, the nearest Rome subway stop with car park is only 10 Km. distant, appr. 6 miles. With the subway (line A), you can reach all central sights within minutes.
Rome's Ciampino airport, where most charter flights from Europe land, is only 15 Km. distant (appr. 9 miles).
The villa has two entrances, and two
foyers. The first (not shown in the photos) introduces
to the hall with the stairs and the sitting room (photo

and to the guests' bathroom on the ground floor.

The sitting room continues with a very
comfortable dining room (d), including a long table
for eight persons, a corner cupboard, a most elegant
side cupboard, a trolley, a chandelier, fine paintings.
The knick-knacks, like in all the apartment, are very
fine and tasteful. They were purchased personally by
the proprietors in their journeys around the world.
From the windows of the sitting room, one can see the
village of Montecompatri, as if it were a painting.

etc, and also other appliances (mixer, toaster, ice cream maker

There are three double bedrooms and one single bedroom. |
All bedrooms (photos i, l, m) have elegant
wooden furnitures and fine fittings. All have wardrobes,
bedside tables, set of drawers, chandeliers, paintings,
and also a sink, so one does not have to go to the bathroom

chairs. |

The second one has a crib bed, and a precious 19th century set
of drawers with mirror, and oriental decorations. The third
double bedroom is just a little simpler, like the single bedroom.
All the bedrooms though have a balcony.
In fact, the entire house is surrounded by a balcony,
where from you have panoramic views of Rome and of the
surrounding Roman Castles. In the sleeping quarters
there are two bathrooms, one with bathtub, and the second
with shower box.The house is equipped with telephone,
colour tv, washing machine, dishwasher, two freezers,
autonomous heating, stereo Hi-Fi, crib-bed for babies
and infants.
The house has a warden who lives with his wife and
child in a little separate annex of the property. The
warden, a reliable person, works all year round as a
gardener in the property. This service is included in
the price. His wife works as a maid in the house, and
this service (generally weekly) is included in the price
for weekly rentals, but not for longer stays (in this
case it is billed separately if it is required). |
