If you're looking for a truly restful retreat in the undulating hills around Rome, this home is for you. Switch off, kick back and relax on the spacious terrace with views over the countryside, a glass of local wine in hand and your favourite book on your lap. When you need a break from the Italian heat, cool down with a dip in the nearby seawater pool. It's impossible to feel the stresses and strains of everyday life from this blissful base. Inside, traditional features blend with modern comforts to create a homey space. An open brick-built fireplace centres the living room, which houses plenty of interesting oddities – from wooden masks to woven chairs and a Persian-style rug. The Italian capital is just an hour away, so hop in the car and make a day of it. Walk the ancient streets and visit the must-see sights, then take your souvenirs back to your hilltop home and feel a renewed sense of appreciation for your bucolic surroundings.
