Villa Le Terrae is a charming holiday home in a fabulous location at the very Heart of Italy. Amidst the vineyards, oak forests, and sunflower fields of the Tiber valley, it borders Umbria, Lazio and Tuscany. We have opened our vacation home to travelers since 1998.

The Villa is a perfect base to explore Rome, Spoleto, Orvieto, Assisi, Perugia, Civita di Bagnoregio, Lake Bolsena and the Mediterranean Sea. In addition there are innumerable other art cities, quaint hilltowns, and naturalistic and archaeological sites, all within half an hour to one hour distance from the Villa. Florence is two hours away by train, and within day trip range.

Our Villa is situated in a panoramic and peaceful position that is extremely well connected by the main A1 freeway and central train system that runs north and south through the Italian peninsula.

The very spacious villa (3.500 SQFT) with three + levels comfortably accommodates 7 people with three double bedrooms, one single bedroom and three and a half bathrooms. It is also wonderfully spacious for just a couple, with open verandas on every side to choose from to optimize the views and lighting any time of day.

The Villa is furnished, entirely floored with terracotta tiles, and finished with hand-painted ceramic tiles in the kitchen and bathrooms. Le Terrae has all the warmth and comfort to make you feel at home.

A spacious round staircase in the heart of the villa features an architecturally designed and fine crafted spiral wrought iron handrail, painted in a Mediterranean shade of blue, comfortably linking the three levels.

The first floor has a spacious living room with a sofa, and a great 11-foot long antique table for unforgettable celebrations. There is also a fully equipped kitchen with a second smaller dining table, one double bedroom, one single bedroom and one bathroom with shower.

The second floor has a living area complete with a fireplace, couches, and a table ideal for quiet activities, games, telecommuting, or opening a big map to study the area for the next day’s adventures. The large room opens up onto the covered, furnished terraces with many colorful flower pots. From the terraces, and along the full perimeter of the villa, are open views of the surrounding landscape and garden, with roses, jasmines, lilacs and lavenders.

Villa Le Terrae is unique in that it has large living spaces and yet it also has many cozy niches perfect for those wanting some individual time.

On the third floor two bedrooms: a master suite with king-size bed and en-suite bathroom with tub, one room with double bed (or two twins, depending on the guest’s preferences), and a bathroom with shower. The enchanting views from the windows open to the lush landscape of the Cimini Mountains and the rolling hills of Umbria. The choruses of birds in the adjacent hazel nut orchards and vineyards provide a delightful background completing this idyllic vision.

On the large and completely private and enclosed 5 acres property, there is a wonderful centuries old oak, that is among the largest ones in the area. Beneath this monumental oak is a very large table for al fresco dining, and an adjacent bocce-ball court. Closer to the villa, an outdoor traditional wood oven to cook fantastic bread, pizzas, or locally raised whole roasted chicken with potatoes dressed in the centuries old fashion of the local farmers.

The whole Villa is rented undivided, with no other buildings on its grounds. In addition to being a tremendous value, Le Terrae is spacious, light-filled, elegant, and full of carefully designed architectural details.

• Please NOTE: While we welcome all families and PRIVATE groups of friends traveling to our beautiful area, we do not rent the villa as a base for third party, commercial activities of any type.

    Villa Le Terrae is a beautiful home full of character and charm. It's spacious. Our seven family members slept comfortably. We visited in winter and were pleasantly surprised by the warmth and comfort of the house. There was one room on the first floor off the kitchen that had a slight draft, but the host arrived with an extra blanket, so that was not a problem for our stay at all. Any questions we had during our stay were immediately answered. Every restaurant, grocery and cafe recommendation from our host was absolutely wonderful. We love the surrrounding property. The bocce ball court provided hours of entertainment and the rosemary growing everywhere provided a lovely herbal extra to our pasta sauce one night. We used the nearby commuter train parking lot to do day trips to Rome and Florence during our stay. This villa and host made our family vacation so fantastic. Thank you!

    My wife, daughter and myself stayed here Nov 15-20 and it was amazing! Amazing is a bit of an understatement, but it was everything one could possibly want in a property! Our check-in process was smooth as silk, the owner was extremely communicative and helpful. She walked us through the home, showed us where everything was, shared insights on visiting Rome (1.25hr away) and was always available for questions, even checking in on us halfway through the stay to ensure we were doing good and to offer any insights we needed for the local area....From this location we visited some of the most stunning non-Rome locations like Orte, Ovieto, Civita, Saturnia, and of course Rome/Vatican....everything was within 1.5hrs by car away and amazing...The house is massive!! at over 3200sqft and 4 floors accented by a beautiful towered spiral staircase, two living rooms, a well appointed kitchen, 3+ bathrooms and 4 bedrooms...all amazing to say the least....The grounds are equally amazing from the fruit bearing Pomegranate to the lavender plants, Peonies and succulents the grounds are private, removed from an road sounds, surrounded by old Oaks, and a beautiful field..not to mention the sweetest resident cat, Angioletto (Little Angel)....I could type and type about how wonderful our stay was, but safe to say, if you are contemplating a stay here, do it...You will not be disappointed in the slightest!!

    It was such an easy check in process, the kitchen was great to cook in and so many terraces and books to read and enjoy the few and the quite. The tub, the fireplace, and the walks in the surrounding area were my favorite .

    The property is serene, with no extra frills, perfect for a quiet stay and base to explore Lazio and Umbria. The owners were lovely, flexible with our schedule, and very responsive to our questions via WhatsApp. Nearby restaurants to try: Maria Rosa in Vasanello. Only a 5 minute drive and wonderful food and atmosphere. Orte won't keep you busy beyond a few hours, so keep that in mind - expect to be driving at least an hour to visit many of the sites from this location, but you'll have a wonderful and quiet retreat to base yourself from.

    La Terrae was the perfect home for the six days we were in the area. The owners were lovely and very responsive to all of our questions, before and during our stay. The house and land are spacious and beautiful. We were a group of three people and could easily be together or separate in the house, as we desired. A party of 6 could have the same choices because of the clever design of the house with its three stories and multiple outdoor porches. I would highly recommend this house for someone visiting Italy. Also, the area where the house is, in northern Lazio, was central but not overrun by tourists. Thank you Anna and Alessandra. Sent from my iPhone

    We had a great time and it's a wonderful property...a few of the screens had some holes which lead to some insects coming in, but other than that it was great. We happened to be there during the early heat wave of 2019 across Europe and thus could have benefited from air conditioning on the upper two levels, but the fans really helped and made it bearable up there...the bottom level remained comfortable throughout our stay.

    It's all Italian! The Villa is private! Love the feel of the whole setting and it's quite the adventure if you don't know Italian. We did just fine and the people in the local villages were so nice! Driving was interesting! Make sure you have a map and don't go by numbers, follow the towns! Allesandra and Anna were very helpful! Train is easy into Rome- go to the machines in Orte at the train station and you can select English in order to understand purchasing a ticket! A lot of fun!!

    If your looking for a secluded place in the country this place is perfect but not too far out to be inconvenient.House and property just beautiful.Cabs were easy to get and charged 20 euros to town although we ended up taking the train to Rome and renting a car which in the end was the best choice.Anna and Alessandra were great.Very good communication which we found to be a problem at other places we stayed.Everthing in the house worked.Can't think of anything that could have been better.Even enjoyed feeding the cat.

    Anna was a considerate host. The property is near enough to be able to drive to sightsee. The pizzs oven was not really operational, but the kitchen was complete, and it was fun to eat on the patio. There are many sitting rooms in the house, so it's easy to find privacy if you are with a group.
