Lovely italian cuisine in a beautiful environment

A beautiful place to have lunch or dinner in Sabina is the agriturismo TerraSabina near Poggio Mirteto. Make a reservation by phone and enjoy tasty organic food, mostly fresh from the garden.
Serena and her grandmother Olga are preparing and serving you a wide variety of antipasti, pasta or rice dishes, fresh salads, fruit or home-made ice-cream.
You feel like eating in the living-room of  good friend, and the views over the surrounding hills are stunning.


 Take a further look at TerraSabina.

New sun blind

Finally we put a beautiful big awning on the wall to bring more shadow over the terrace. With the help of our friend now you can sit under a nice sun blind in the typical Casa Pace colours yellow and green and enjoy even more the sight over the green hills and Cottanello.

Fresh look for Casa Pace

To make Casa Pace even more a place for resting, relaxing and enjoying the surrounding, we created a beautiful garden, almost zen-like, with plants and stones in harmony.
 We also planted another olive tree overlooking the fantastic view to the Soratte mountain:
 And also the barbecue is now even more an inviting place for long warm summer evenings...
 But also inside we wanted to bring more Pace and Natura into the rooms. In one of the two sleeping rooms now hangs a heart on a branch of a tree....
 ....and in the other sleeping room a buddha watches over your restful sleep :)

The living room got new comfortable seats and a big olive branch on the wall for the mediterrenean flair...


Only the view from the terrace has stayed the same: beautiful landscape that cannot be improved.

Piediluco

Yesterday we have made a lovely trip to Piediluco, a small village at the lake Piediluco near Terni.
Beautiful weather and nature, so we did a walk half around the lake.
 Slow Life everywhere...
 Beach-Life!!

The path is also a part of the Via Francigena, the Italian pilgrimage route to Rome.
On the other side of the lake we could take a cold drink in a small cafe and then hop on the AcquaBus, a little ferry that brought us back to Piediluco.

Swimming Bath in Casperia

Need some cooling in the summer heat? The swimming pool in the near village Casperia is open in the summertime.
It's in a little hidden place, surrounded by the nice views over the hills, and not totally public. Guests of Casa Pace are very welcome though :)

Medioeval festival in Vacone

Last Saturday we went to a medioeval festival Vacone in the evening. Gladiators, maids, gladiators and arabic belly-dancing women were creating a show for the emperor (and the spectators). 



Yoga

Who would not love to do yoga on a platform with such a marvellous view over the fields of Sabina? 
Every Saturday Gabrielle Long makes us a little bit more flexible...



She also offers Massages, and Meditation Courses.
