Description:
RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE. Montepietraia Country House is situated within a farm, L'Olivaia, 40 km north of Rome between two prestigious golf courses, in the hills of the Tuscia of Viterbo, immersed in a large olive grove. It is located in the centre of 4 lakes (Bracciano, Vico, Martignano and Monterosi) in an area rich in history and culture. The villa has an independent entrance and a large park at the guests' complete disposal. The property, built in the mid twentieth century, underwent careful renovation in the ‘90s including characteristic elements such as terracotta floors and exposed beams and furnishing which has been chosen with great taste. It is well-suited to families or groups of friends who wish to spend relaxing days in good company but, at the same time, to enjoy moments of privacy. The farming activity takes place in areas that do not disturb the quiet of the houses. L’Olivaia is certified Organic and D.O.P. Tuscia. It is laid out on the hills of Tuscia, between the Roman amphitheater of Sutri and the ancient Via Francigena, at the center of four volcanic lakes that determine optimum climatic conditions for the development of the olive. The olive grove stretches of about 20 Ha with over 7000 olive trees and is organized for fields and cultivars in order to allow the separate collection of cultivars Leccino, Frantoio, Maurino and indigenous including Caninese and Bolzone, following the different maturation. The English roses planted at each row start, restore color and fragrance to the fields and indicate the different cultivars. During the months of October, November and December the olives are harvested and guests are invited to participate and to receive the equivalent of the olives they pick in oil, crushed in Tuscus: the family olive mill in the nearby village of Vetralla. The villa is situated within walking distance of a prestigious golfing area with two golf courses (18 holes) of great quality and international fame: The Golf Club Le Querce, home of the Italian Golf Federation that borders the property and can be reached on foot; a paradise for golfers and for all those who love the great outdoors!
