A wonderful house in a great location
Casale Baiardo is a wonderful house in a great location, just as described, large and well equipped - also with some nice music lovers decoration.
We enjoyed having dinner in the garden. We had BBQ a few times, afterwards it was wonderful to sit in the garden lounge furnitures with a glass of wine, looking into nature and up to the stars coming out.
We also went to some restaurants - there are nice (and also not expensive) ones in Manziana, but also "La Riserva" nearby is good.
As it was very warm in July we were happy to have the large pool (cleaned and checked each day early morning), reach the beach at Cerveteri in just 30 minutes by car or Lago Bracciano (very nice) in 15 minutes - although the best public beach at the lake was Spiaggia Libera in Trevignano Romano (25 minutes).
The house was also in a great spot to explore sights and surroundings. From Manziana we used the train to visit beautiful Rome (about an hour, "Birg 4 zone" ticket 9.30 Euro to Rome and back incl. public transport in Rome). Other nice spots to see are Antica Monterano nearby, the "Cascata di Castel Giuliano (Cascata della Mola)" waterfalls where you can take a bath and outstanding nature shower (some walk but worth it), Tolfa up on a hill, or Civitavecchia harbour city - good to combine with a visit at the Aquafelix water park for the kids.
MaTe is an outstanding host - a very nice lady, who answered the few questions we had fast and always in a helpful way. All the best for your future!
