It offers a unique experience: the best of the countryside, the city and the Italian tradition in one location: convenient railway links and easy auto routes to Rome make it possible to combine the rustic tranquillity of a magical landscape with the excitement of the Eternal City.
The family who owns the Villa has always nurtured and shared the pleasure of gathering with friends in the countryside for the family's most important festive occasions. It is in this tradition that the Villa was created. For the owner, sharing the family Villa is a special opportunity to expose international guests to the pristine (and often overlooked) beauty of a land they love -- a mere stone's throw from ROME.
The Villa organizes, upon request, WEDDING RECEPTIONS, special cooking classes (Italian gelato, hand-made pasta, wood-burning-oven pizza), olive oil tasting, guided tours in the Sabina region and Rome, Italian language/culture special itinerary guided tours, and on-site art workshops.
CATERED MEALS & AGRITURISMO RESTAURANT: Catered meals can be arranged at the Villa upon request. The Villa’s clients can also take advantage of the Agriturismo restaurant next door, a very nice family-owned genuine home-made Italian food rustic place (open during week-ends and available for them upon request during the week).
Villa La Tartaruga Sabina is a rare find!

Hints and Tips The Villa is near Palombara Sabina, a charming ancient town, only 30 min from ROME (by train or car). Built on a hill at the foot of mount Gennaro and surrounded by olive and cherry trees typical of the region, Palombara Sabina has everything tourists may need: stores, restaurants, post office, hospital, etc. Of particular interest are the old town centre with the beautiful Savelli-Torlonia castle on the top of the hill, and the Abbey of San Giovanni in Argentella.
30 min drive from the villa is the town of Tivoli, famous worldwide for two of the most beautiful villas of the ancient Roman era and the Italian renaissance: Hadrian's Villa and Villa D'Este both part of UNESCO's world heritage sites.
25 min drive from the villa is the Abbey of Farfa, an ancient marvellous Benedictine abbey of the VIII century.
