Casale Madreterra - Casale Madreterra

===== Exterior =====

Casale Madreterra is an old restored original stone farmhouse dating back to the 1700s which today offers a corner of paradise to those who want to enjoy a holiday immersed in nature, surrounded by
greenery, the scent of flowers and trees, the chirping of birds and the songs of cicadas just 20 minutes by car from the main city of Rieti.
The main basic services are found in the small town of Colli al Velino where people still live and spend the day with a rhythm now forgotten by those who live in big cities but which is worth rediscovering even just for a few days.

===== Interior =====

Casale Madreterra is a typical rustic stone farmhouse from the 18th century, spread over two floors and covering approximately 200 square meters, with bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Nestled in the tranquility of the hills between Umbria and Lazio, it’s only 15 km from the city of Rieti. From the moment you pass through the gate until you (alas) leave it behind, the backdrop to your vacation is filled with only birdsong and the rustling of leaves.

The villa is also surrounded by a garden filled with trees, flowers, and aromatic plants, filling the air with Mediterranean scents. From here, you have an incomparable view of the surrounding valley. Admit it, don’t you already feel more relaxed?

On summer evenings, you can enjoy dinner on the veranda or, if you’re with friends, use the large table on the side patio, spacious yet private thanks to the numerous shrubs that surround it. And to end the day, what could be better than a good glass of local wine in complete tranquility, surrounded by pristine nature?
