IT1283 Villa dei Cinghiali

Exclusive vacation villa in Lazio - Villa dei Cinghiali is a beautiful country villa with a smart, contemporary style, set among 40 acres of splendid parkland and century-old olive groves producing some of the finest olive oil in Italy.

Recently built to traditional specifications, the versatile accommodation is split between a main villa, studio and pool house.  Every inch of this unique property has been thoughtfully planned and decorated using vibrant colour and luxurious soft furnishings; a central tower housing the staircase has been turned into a stunning sundial feature, with sunlight tracking across the dial throughout the day.  Outside, the gardens have been created by an award-winning designer and offer an utter sense of tranquillity with stunning views across the surrounding Sabinian hills and striking sunsets.

The entire Sabina area, only 30 miles north of Rome but off the main touristic routes, is dotted with castles, ancient villages, Roman ruins and splendid aristocratic palaces, one of them being only a five-minute drive from your villa, in the village of Oliveto. Roccasinibalda and Nerola feature great castles, Poggio San Lorenzo, Casperia and Labro are all pretty villages with lovely markets. To fully enjoy the outdoor country living your trips should include the awe-inspiring Marmore water falls, the tallest in Italy. For some relaxing sports activities you can try horse riding and hiking. A private tennis court is situated 100m from the house and is shared with only one other villa which is 5 minutes’ drive away – perhaps you can challenge guests of Reggia dell'Olio to a holiday tournament…..and may the best team win!
