The Lovers'
Cottage
A wooden house for two, set apart from the villa, with its own bathroom and its own private garden.
A hideaway for
those who treasure
silence.
La Casetta degli Innamorati — the Lovers' Cottage — was created for couples looking for something different. Not a hotel, not a B&B: a cottage all your own, set apart from the villa, with a private garden just for you. All around, the big garden and the pool shared with the other guests, and the peace of Tuscia.
Your own bathroom just inside, coffee under the porch in your own garden in the morning, in summer, a swim as the sun goes down. Moments you will never forget. One caveat: we cannot accept pets in the cottage.
Every detail
designed for 2.
Pets: we cannot host them in the cottage. In the two apartments in the villa yes — one pet per apartment, with a daily supplement.
Three independent accommodations — two apartments for up to 4 guests and the cottage for two: garden, pool and outdoor kitchen are shared. Stefano's parents live here too and keep everything in order.
The cottage's
private garden
Around the cottage there is a garden that belongs only to whoever is sleeping there: the lawn, the path, the lights in the evening, the seating and the porch. That is where you have breakfast with coffee from the capsule corner, and where you stay when you don't feel like seeing anyone. Just beyond it begins the rest of the property, which is shared with the two apartments: the large 3,000 m² garden, the pool, the outdoor kitchen. Two different spaces, and you can choose which one to be in, every time.
Small outside,
complete inside.
One warm, wooden open space: the double bed, a living corner with sofa and TV, the coffee station and a private bathroom with shower. Outside, a covered porch with a table for dining al fresco and, in front of it, the garden with a stone path leading to the pool.
The cottage sits in the villa's greenery, a few steps from the pool yet tucked away enough to feel completely alone. In the evening the lanterns light up among the trees along with the porch lights: the atmosphere you see in the photos is even better in person. And when you feel like exploring, the whole Tuscia is around you — Bomarzo, Civita di Bagnoregio, the Popes' thermal baths.
In summer
and in winter
The cottage is open all year round. In summer there is air conditioning, and it is the only accommodation in the villa to have it; the pool is open from mid-May to mid-October, 8 am to 10 pm. In winter there are radiators, and the wood does the rest: it is the season when the cottage feels most snug. Check-in is from 3 pm and check-out by 11 am, an hour later than the apartments. We ask for no deposit, and in Bassano in Teverina there is no tourist tax.
One hour from Rome,
ten minutes from Bomarzo
The cottage is in the garden of Villa Vacanze Valentina, in Bassano in Teverina, in Viterbo's Tuscia. From Rome it is an hour by car: the A1 motorway exit at Orte is 15 minutes away. The Monster Park of Bomarzo is 10 minutes away, Vitorchiano 15, Viterbo 25, Civita di Bagnoregio 45. You leave your car in the car park inside the property. The Wi-Fi reaches the cottage and the garden too.
Before
you book.
Will we have the whole villa to ourselves?
Let us be clear from the start: no. Villa Vacanze Valentina has three independent accommodations — two apartments (up to 4 people each) and the Lovers' Cottage (2 people), and the garden and pool are shared. Enzo and his wife, Stefano's parents, also live on the property: they are the reason everything is always in order and someone is really there to welcome you. For a day of exclusive use, just ask — we can look into it.
Can I bring my dog or cat?
Not to the Cottage: it is the only accommodation where we cannot accept pets. In the two apartments in the villa yes — one pet per apartment, with a daily supplement: just tell us when you book.
Is the Lovers' Cottage really just for couples?
Yes. It is an independent hideaway designed exclusively for 2 guests: it stands apart from the villa and has its own private garden, shared with no one. The large garden, the pool and the outdoor kitchen are shared with the other two accommodations. The ideal choice for a romantic getaway in the Tuscia countryside.
Does it have a private bathroom?
Yes: the cottage has its own indoor bathroom with shower, entirely yours. By the pool there is also an open-air shower, shared with the other guests of the villa.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, the cottage is fully climate-controlled: cool on the hottest summer days and heated whenever needed. Inside you will also find a TV and a coffee corner.
Is breakfast included?
Served breakfast is not included: the cottage has a coffee corner with capsules. The table under the porch is yours, and there is a bar in the village a few minutes away.
Where exactly is the cottage?
In the garden of Villa Vacanze Valentina in Bassano in Teverina (Viterbo): the Monster Park of Bomarzo is 10 minutes away, Viterbo 25, Rome about an hour. The A1 motorway exit at Orte is a quarter of an hour away.
Can we cook in the cottage?
Inside there is a coffee corner with a fridge and a microwave, not a full kitchen. For cooking there is the outdoor kitchen in the garden, with the barbecue, shared between the three accommodations: that is where summer dinners are made. Village restaurants are a few minutes away.
What time do we arrive and leave?
Check-in is from 3 pm and check-out by 11 am, an hour later than the apartments. If you need a different time, write to us in advance: early arrivals and late departures can be arranged, for an extra charge.
Is the cottage open in winter too?
Yes, all year round. It has radiators and, being all wood, it is especially cosy in the colder months. The pool is closed from mid-October to mid-May: in winter you come for the cottage and for the villages.
Is there Wi-Fi?
Yes, and it reaches everywhere. The villa's network covers the whole property: inside the cottage, under the porch and in the garden. The same goes for the shared spaces, around the pool.
Where do we leave the car?
In the free car park inside the property, shared with the other accommodations. Your car stays behind the gate for the whole of your stay, and from the cottage you get around on foot within the garden.
Is there a deposit or a tourist tax?
No. We ask for no deposit, and in Bassano in Teverina there is no tourist tax. If you book through our website you can cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before arrival; on the portals, their own conditions apply.
