Frascati Country House

It is a beautiful location near Frascati and Rome. It was an apartment and was comfortable. This place would be perfect for someone who needed peace and quiet. It would be the perfect place for an author who is finishing a book and needs not to get distracted.

It was fairly remote. The stairs leading to the apartment were somewhat difficult to negotiate. I don't think each apartment location has the stairs. They made accommodation to have me part in a different area which was good.

it’s old nice building in very nice area with great gardens

Very clean and well equipped apartment.

Pool is some 200-300m away from the property, which became as a surprise. Pool itself was clean and well taken care of.

I like that the property came with its own private pool and there was a local vineyard close by which really added to the authentic feel of the stay. We had everything we needed there at the property and were provided with a complimentary bottle of wine from the local vineyard. Staff always tried to go above and beyond when asked for help and would try as best as they could to resolve the matter.

Arrived around 8:30 pm but found it difficult to get a hold of staff at first and the address on booking didn’t match where we had to do. When we called the booking number, we were told to call another number which didn’t get us anywhere. Quite scary given the time of night and the fact that we didn’t speak the language, luckily we had an amazing taxi driver who waited with us until we were finally able to get a hold of a staff at the property. The staff initially seemed confused by our arrival although we had confirmed a check in time between 8-9pm. Given the location we struggled to get service for the first night and the WiFi in the house didn’t work. Again this was only for the first night, as staff came to resolve the matter the following afternoon. The shower drain was clogged with a lot of hair so the water went down slowly filling up to our ankles at times. Again this was only for the first night, as staff came to resolve the matter the following afternoon.

The grounds are beautiful, especially the pool area. The accommodation is clean and comfortable. Fernando who lives on site is very helpful and friendly. It’s in a good location for visiting Rome, but you can’t walk around after dark due to wild boars in the area. we didn’t see any though!

We stayed in the apartment with roof terrace which is advertised as having air conditioning. It does have it but only in the bedrooms. This is fine if no more than 4 people are staying, but if there’s 5 or 6, then 2 people are on the sofa bed in the living room and therefore don’t have the benefit of the AC. I think this should be made clearer.
