Montefiascone is situated approximately 100 km miles from Rome, and it takes about 2 hours by car to Villa Helena. The property Villa Helena is situated in the peaceful and rural Vallemanna, just a 7 minute drive away from Montefiascone. Montefiascone is about 580 metre over sea level, and is the highest town in the Region Lazio. There are approximately 12.000 inhabitants in this idyllic, little Italian town. The old part of the town has been well preserved. The Santa Margherita cathedral, with its characteristic dome, stands majestically on a hillside. This beautiful dome is the third largest in Italy. Montefiascone is situated on a mountain ridge over Italy's largest volcanic lake, Lake Bolsena. From the town there is a fantastic panoramic view across the lake and the hills in Tuscany and Umbria. There are many safe, sloping beaches for children, lovely old promenades, and a good selection of cafés, restaurants and pizzariers. It takes about 15 min to drive from the Villa.
