"-I finally found a great option
for
independently minded clients flying through Fiumicino (FCO - Rome
airport) and using Civitavecchia as their embarkation/debarkation port: Fontana
del Papa a farm-house B&B.
The first great bonus in staying here for a
pre or post cruise stay is location: a mere 20 minute
drive from the pier in Civitavecchia and only 45 minutes from Rome's
Fiumicino airport. The owners will provide very reasonably priced
pick-up and transfers to and from these points as well
as the train station in Civitavecchia. If a guest were to spend a few
days or a week here there are cooking classes, wine-tasting sessions,
recommended tours to the Etruscan tombs in Tarquinia,
to Viterbo and one could
even make day-trips into Rome itself
The place
is a dream come true.
My only
regret is that I didn't spend more time there. This is for
clients who would a appreciate a wonderful Italian
countryside experience and hospitality. With only 5 guest
rooms, this B&B is obviously geared to individuals or families and not
larger groups or people expecting large hotel facilities
.... If
have any questions beforehand I will be happy to speak with them.
Believe me will be forever grateful for the recommendation and you can
rest easy knowing they will be
cared for superbly!
