Just on the shore of Bolsena lake , charming countryhouse with private beach and restaurant service.
Conveniently located at the crossroads of Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio , we are 4 km from the town of Bolsena, in the province of Viterbo, along SS 2 Cassia road , roughly 100 km north of Rome , 100 km south of Siena , 140 km from Firenze , 70 km from Perugia , 25 km from Orvieto.
Our Farm consists of kiwi, plum and olive orchards. One of these, which covers about 10 hectares (over 22 acres), is centered around an old stone farmhouse dating back to 1850 and its attached rural buildings. The complex has been restructured into eight one, two and three-room apartments , all ground level, able to accommodate from 2 to 7 people with a large grassy area in front for relaxing and playing.
Each apartment have a well-equipped mini-kitchen and dining area, an elegantly appointed bathroom with a shower and hairdryer, and a porch covered with open chestnut beams and terra cotta tiles that offers another table and chairs for outdoor dining. The carefully chosen furnishings, the warmly colored and welcoming fabrics, the antique furniture and elegant wrought iron finishings together make the Farmhouse Arlena agritourism complex one of superior level that remains respectful of its country style
The surrounding fields, which extend to the edge of the lake, are covered mostly by kiwi orchards. A 150-meter-long path cuts through the orchard and leads you directly to the quiet of the lake. There you will be welcomed by a stretch of lawn and beach equipped for bathing, where your privacy is assured by the impenetrability of the adjacent reeds. The sandy shore gradually declines into the lake, lending to a shallow area that is well-suited for swimming, even for small children. A splendid \"ontano\" (alder), a typical lake tree, sinks its roots directly into the shore and acts as a frame for this suggestive corner of the lake.
Canoe outings along the reeds will allow you to bird watch the many species found on the lake, while sun worshipers can enjoy laying in the sun on the beach, or directly on the water on one of our \"Malibu\" floating beds.If you like fishing you can enjoy with the Black Bass spinning or Carp fishing . The Bolsena lake is the cleanest and largest vulcanic lake in Europe , and \"Bisentina\" island is the pearl of the lake . Once a papal summer residence, it was recently returned to the admiring public offering guided visits with daily departures from the port of Bolsena.
Homemade jams (kiwi, plum, fig, raspberry, kumquat) and breakfast sweets will cheer your stay. We directly also sell fruit , vegetables, olive oil and local wine. Restaurant service and Pizzeria available inside the dining room of the ancient hamlet , reserved only for the farmhouse’s guests . Upon request, we can organize informal meals directly on the beach.
