Roberta's cottage and magical property exceeded our expectations on every front. We booked without much knowledge of the area, mostly based on so many 5 star reviews.
The location is perfect for anyone who wants a vacation that combines city, country, and ocean. It's one hour to Rome, one hour to incredible beaches, and surrounded by ancient villages. Then, of course, the towns of Bracciano and Trevignano Romano and all that the lake has to offer. I can't recommend this location highly enough.
Roberta's property including the pool, gardens, and incredible views is a relaxing oasis to return to after a day in Rome. The cottage is comfortable and clean, and she provides everything you need for a great stay. I also recommend her delicious Italian breakfasts which she will provide upon request.
The pool is perfect for young children as there is no deep end. It is unheated which we preferred in the heat of Summer and Fall.
My kids loved the geese who wander the property in the evenings, and the swings and hammock.
Roberta stays on the property in a neighboring cottage and is always available to answer questions or offer advice on local adventures or restaurants. She takes hospitality very seriously and prides herself in being a warm, welcoming host, paying attention to every detail of your stay. She is a big part of why we loved our trip and we hope to return to stay with her again next year!
