After a scenic one-hour drive towards the South East, you’ll arrive at Villa delle Magnolie, an enchanting estate nestled between Zagarolo and San Cesareo.
Your hosts, Eddy and Jessica, the passionate owners of the estate, will welcome you to their world of art, music, and delectable cuisine.

As first course, you will savor the famous Roman Pasta like the delicious “Amatriciana”, or a fantastic “Carbonara” or the famous “Arrabbiata” with spicy tomato sauce. As for the second course, the meat will be the main cast, with the “Pollo alla Cacciatora” (chicken with wine, sauce and vegetables) or “Abbacchio al forno con patate” (roast lamb with potatoes). The perfect way to finish a Roman dinner is sharing a tempting fruit salad or a delicious Ice Cream.
