Rustico/casale

The area is in the Monte Soratte and Agro Veientano countryside on the north side of Rome, with low volcanic and tuff hills, wooded patches and farmed land. The Tiber valley is nearby, and the Veio Regional Park lies within reach to the south around the old Etruscan landscape between Formello, Sacrofano and the edge of Rome. The nearest larger town is Monterotondo, with full everyday services and a rail link toward Rome; Rome itself is the main urban centre for work and services. This part of northern Lazio is known for Etruscan sites, tuff-built historic centres and commuting settlements on the fringe of the capital.
