Country Estate in Campagnano

Hidden in the greenery of the Roman countryside, this six-bedroom country estate stands in complete privacy, with generous indoor and outdoor space and a setting made for families and groups who want to be together without living on top of one another.

At the heart of the property is a large private swimming pool, framed by gardens and open countryside. Beside it stands a substantial pool house, a room of its own for long lunches, drinks and slow afternoons, so entire summer days can be spent outdoors without going back to the main house.

Two of the six bedrooms sit directly beside the pool. The others are spread through the main villa, which gives larger groups both company and distance when they want it.

Inside, the house has the warm character of an Italian country home rather than anything formal. The communal rooms are large and made for gathering: comfortable living areas with open fireplaces, generous dining spaces and a fully equipped kitchen with a professional range, ready for anything from breakfast to a long family dinner.

Outside, the estate opens into extensive green space where the pace slows right down. There is room to swim, to read beside the pool, to eat outdoors at the barbecue and the firepit, or to spend an afternoon doing nothing at all under the trees.

For all its quiet, the villa is well placed for this part of Lazio. Lake Bracciano is within easy reach, and Campagnano di Roma, Formello and the historic villages north of the city make easy day trips. Rome itself is close enough for a day of sightseeing before returning to the countryside.

A guardian lives independently elsewhere on the wider estate, discreet and entirely separate from the guest areas, which means help is close by should anything be needed. The villa, the swimming pool, the pool house and the outdoor areas are private to the guests throughout the stay.
