Lazio villas, a quality villa selection from Villas Worldwide, the ultimate villa centre for Lazio villas. It is only in the last few years that visitors have awoken to the attraction of renting villas with pools in the Lazio area, few have been disappointed. There is the obvious attraction of being near to Rome which can be easily accessed by train from most main towns.
Less obvious is the attractive coastline and the beautiful, sparsely populated rolling hills, volcanic lakes, mountains, ravines, vineyards and olive groves which lie to the north and south of Rome itself plus the wealth of Roman and Etruscan sites which lie amongst them.
There are two International airports serving the Lazio region, Ciampino to the south and Fiumichino (Leonardo di Vinci) to the north which make the Lazio region particularly accessible from many UK regional airports.
In the north at Bomarzo is the Parco dei Monstri, a 16th century sculpture park of fantastic creatures and monsters which is really enjoyable for both adults and children alike. Civitavecchia was once an Etruscan fortified port and today it is a fascinating village recently returned to the Italian people by the Vatican, it offers a delightful day out by the sea.
Another gem is the Etruscan acropolis at Cerveteri, it’s vast in scale and quite amazing to visit, again it is surprisingly enjoyable for children as well. Etruscan art is beautiful and the incredible mini pyramids are hugely atmospheric and surprisingly intact.
The Lazio weather is often warm and sunny, it’s no surprise that grape vines grow so well here, and you will appreciate taking a dip in your villas pool, particularly after a day out. Check out our unrivalled selection of Lazio villas.
