About this property

Delightful stone cottage surrounded by olive trees with a splendid viewpoint, ideal for relaxing holidays in contact with nature. The cottage is located in the historic part of Spigno Saturnia, on the slopes of the Aurunci Mountains; mountain enthusiasts, from the town center, will be able to easily use the vast network of paths that wind through the Aurunci Park, while sea lovers, in a quarter of an hour by car, will be able to reach the most renowned beaches of the Gulf of Gaeta; on request, it is possible to book, exclusively, a daily excursion aboard a 10-meter sailboat to discover the splendid stretch of coast between Formia and Sperlonga.
The surroundings are all to be discovered, both from a naturalistic and historical and cultural point of view: the archaeological area of Minturnae, the Roman sites of Formia, the Riviera di Ulisse park, the Montagna Spaccata di Gaeta, the seaside village of Sperlonga.
Excellent base for day trips to the Royal Palace of Caserta, Pompeii, Naples and the fascinating islands of Ponza and Ventotene, connected daily by ferries and hydrofoils from the nearby Formia.

traumhafter Urlaub in einer Ruheoase

Ohne Fernseher und WLAN hatten wir viel Zeit, uns zu erholen, die Umgebung zu erkunden und von den traumhaften Terrassen in die Ferne zu schauen. Das Haus war sauber, gemütlich und funktional ausgestattet. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war unkompliziert und einfach. Daniela war sehr nett und entgegenkommend und jeder Zeit erreichbar. In dem kleinen Dorfladen bekommt man alles Notwendige für den Alltag und Wanderwege in die Berge beginnen im Ort.

Abenteuer im Berg

Die Lage ist zunächst großartig. Der Telefonkontakt zur Vermieterin funktioniert gut. Also drehst Du den Schlüssel rum, der im Schloss steckt und betrittst ein ziemlich heruntergekommenes und sehr verschmutztes Häuschen. Die Schlafräume sind oben über eine extrem enge und steile Wendeltreppe zu erreichen. Aber dann der Ausblick von 2 riesigen Balkonen: traumhaft! Im Ort selbst kannst Du nichts einkaufen und im Mai ist auch keine Kneipe oder Rest. geöffnet…

Tranquilità assoluta

Bellissima casa, tranquilità assoluta. Magnifica la vista dai terrazzi da dove godere un pasto o leggere un libro è un lusso per chi viene dai rumori della città. L’unica pecca è stata la scala a chiocciola molto ripida. Per il resto perfetta, anche la posizione che permette svariate gite giornaliere.

Panorama strepitoso e tranquillità assoluta

Da un lato terrazzi con vista mozzafiato sulla vallata ed il mare. Dall'altro ulivi e piante di ogni tipo in un rigoglioso giardino mediterraneo. Casa spaziosissima e super attrezzata. Proprietari simpatici e gentilissimi. Non manca proprio nulla.

Superbe découverte

Première fois dans cette région d'Italie, et superbe séjour. Les hôtes sont très chaleureux, la villa est fonctionnelle et dispose d'une vue à coupé le souffle sur la vallée. C'est reculé, parfait pour se déconnecter mais en même peu loin de la mer (15 min en voiture). La région possède de beaux lieux de visite (Gaete, Sperlonga et bien sûr la fabuleuse Naples à 1h30 de route). Je conseille vivement.

Entspannter Urlaub

Das Haus ist in einem kleinen Dorf. Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber war gut. Es ist alles so, wie in dem Inserat beschrieben. Zum Strand mit dem Auto ca. 15-20 Minuten, zum nächsten grossen Supermarkt 15 Minuten. Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit dort.

Schöne Tage

Das Haus ist ideal gelegen für Ausflüge in die Umgebung und nicht weit vom Meer. Von den Terrassen hat man einen herrlichen Blick über das Tal zum Meer und in der Hängematte im Schatten der Olivenbäume lässt sich die Zeit bestens vertrödeln.

A Peaceful retreat in the mountains

Great location in a small village with splendid views over the valley, snow-topped mountains on the other side and seashore on the other side. Huge terrace on both floors. Not for people who have difficulties with stairs, since stairs to upper floor are steep. Short distance to walking paths and to beaches. Hosts were really helpful with all the arrangements, all our wishes were fulfilled. We had a really successful vacation.

Relax e atmosfera romantica

Abbiamo soggiornato in questa splendida casa con una vista spettacolare a pochi km dal mare. La zona è molto tranquilla e rilassante. Ringraziamo i proprietari che sono stati disponibili per ogni nostra esigenza e sono stati molto gentili. Con noi avevamo 2 cani e per loro è il posto ideale perché il giardino è completamente recintato. Ci rivedremo sicuramente. Consigliatissimo.

weit ab von allem Geschehen aber wunderschön

Das Haus war wunderschön in einem großen Garten gelegen. Grandiose Aussicht ins Tal von beiden Stockwerken. Auf beiden Stockwerken eine riesige Terrasse. Von jedem Zimmer aus erreichbar. Kontakt freundlich und Problemlos. Zu erwähnen wäre vielleicht noch, dass vom Erdgeschoß zu den Schlafzimmern und Bad eine ziemlich enge Wendeltreppe führt für füllige Personen eher beschwerlich. Bettdecke war nur mit einem Bettlaken eingeschlagen also ohne Bettbezug. Gesamtbilanz für uns positiv.

Charmante maison sur les bords des monts Aurunci

Nous avons passé deux merveilleuses semaines dans cette maison localisée sur les pentes des monts Aurunci. La maison a beaucoup de charme et la vue depuis les terrasses en façade est à couper le souffle. Les propriétaires sont agréables et disponibles. Le logement est particulièrement bien adapté et équipé pour 2 adultes et 2 enfants. La maison est décorée avec beaucoup de goût. La literie est de bonne qualité. La localisation est idéale : Environnement directs verdoyants et à proximité de nombreux départs de randonnées dans le parc des monts Aurunci. Mer à une vingtaine de minutes en voiture (Formia) et non loin des magnifiques plages de Sperlonga et de Gaeta. Situation centrale entre Rome et Naples. Possibilité de visiter de nombreux sites archéologiques à des distances raisonnables (Pompéi, Herculanum, Rome, ...). Proximité du site archéologique antique de Minturno (peu connu mais vaut le détour). Visite de superbes grottes (Pastena, Falvaterra, ...) Commerces et grandes surfaces à 15 minutes en voiture Restaurant dans le village : La Capra Blu (pizza excellentes) Points forts : Le charme de la maison. Le superbe paysage. La localisation à proximité de nombreux points d'intérêts. Points faibles : L'escalier menant à l'étage est très raide et étroit. Il n'est pas adapté aux personnes présentant des problèmes de mobilité. Malgré une localisation excentrée, les environs sont un peu plus bruyants que nous ne l'aurions espéré.
