Doganella is a nicely furnished small villa facing part of a 150 hectares of private estate, at the doors of Rome, along the antique roman Flaminia road. The Eternal city can in fact, be is reached in a 30 minutes car journey.
On entering the majestic, electric gates, the estate is immediately visible in all its glory: the spectacular beauty of the private park along which an avenue of trees first leads to an old manor house and towards villa Morolo.
In the past, this large estate belonged to the Borghese family, it was the Pope’s family estate, and now it is owned by an aristocratic Roman family. The trees, the modelled hedges and the avenues of trees that cross the marvellous park all bear witness to an ability to model and preserve the beauty of the countryside. Two other villas complete the estate: one is an old villa, rarely visited at weekends and on a 400 metres distance from Doganella. The other, villa Morolo, with a distance of 1 kilometre from Doganella, may also be rented together with Doganella to provide space for a group of up to 16 guests. Due to the distances between the villas, absolute privacy may be guaranteed. Each villa also has its own outdoor areas and private gardens. the distances are such, that neither of the other two villas can be seen from Doganella. Doganella has a private swimming pool and a tennis court which is shared between the guests at Doganella and the very rare visitors to the other villas.
The villa is within easy reach of the motorway, in fact only a 20 minutes drive. This large estate really is a green paradise at the gates of Rome!
