Location
The house is 1Km from the village of Giove, awarded an orange flag for being one of the most picturesque villages in Italy.
It is some 12Km from the walled Etruscan town of Amelia and 12Km from the A1 Rome-Florence Autostrada, giving access to Rome in an hour and a quarter and Florence in 2 hours. There is a regular and inexpensive high-speed train service to Rome from nearby Orte, making commuting a practical option.
The attractive cities of Orvieto and Montepulciano, in southern Tuscany, are within 1 hour, as is Viterbo (30Km) which will be the location of Rome's second airport when Ciampino is closed to low-cost carriers in 2 years' time. The area has many excellent country restaurants and there are therapeutic hot-springs nearby.
