Casa Airone - R39

Casa Airone is a restored stone farmhouse in the Sabina countryside, 80 kilometers northeast of Rome.  It is located far enough off the beaten tourist path to afford guests a tranquil country setting yet within proximity to the ancient Roman villas, medieval castles, churches and abbeys that are sprinkled throughout this area.  The spacious farmhouse accommodates up to twelve (12) in rooms attractively furnished with antiques belonging to the owner’s family.  It is set inside a walled garden and is surrounded by comfortable outdoor living areas.

Casa Airone is on two levels and has a total of six (6) comfortable bedrooms and six (6) bathrooms.  On the first level there is a spacious living room and dining room with a large fireplace and a kitchen that will delight the cook, large and well-equipped with a dishwasher, two small refrigerators, a triple sink, a 5-burner stove and oven, a microwave, and a fireplace.  This level also contains a bedroom with a double bed and an en suite bathroom with shower, a laundry room with a washing machine and two freezers, and a full bathroom with a shower.  Both the dining and kitchen areas open onto an outdoor patio for accessible “al fresco” dining.

On the second level, there are five (5) bedrooms and four (4) bathrooms.  One bedroom is a suite with a double bed, a sitting area and small terrace.  There are three more double bedrooms (one with a fireplace and one with twin beds and a small terrace), and one single bedroom. Several of the bedrooms have en suite bathrooms with tub and shower and there is a separate full bath with a tub and hand shower as well.

The outdoor living areas of the Casa Airone are as inviting and comfortable as the interior with splendid views of the Sabina countryside and nearby lakes.  Guests can relax in the garden on both covered and open patios furnished with rattan garden furniture or swim  or relax around the large in-ground pool situated 15 steps down from the garden. Children can enjoy games on a small soccer area.   Nearby are the beautiful Roman ruins of Quinto Assio’s villa (1 km),  several typical restaurants and trattorie offering traditional Umbria and Sabina dishes (3 km), a farmacia and alimentary (grocery store) (.5 to 1 km), and it is just a ten-minute drive to the medieval town of Rieti and the Umbrian border.  Public transportation to Rome is readily accessible from the train station at Farfa, 40 minutes away, or by bus from Rieti.
