"We’re back safely and just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Casa Marconi. It was everything that we wanted and we loved Capena. We’ve driven to Italy quite often and had city breaks in Rome staying in Trastevere which we feel is like a big city version of Capena. What we particularly wanted this time was experience of living in a small Italian town and this is exactly what we got. I’m currently doing GCSE Italian as a ‘senior’ evening-class student and our stay was worth an awful lot of hours of tuition! Casa Marconi was splendid and Pucci very helpful – please pass on our thanks to her again.
"We thoroughly enjoyed a meal at L’Anatra Grassa and very much hope it proves a successful venture for Michaela and her husband. In conversation Pucci mentioned some plans for offering a ‘cooking’ related holiday – my wife would be very interested. If it were ever to be linked with learning Italian (for me – I like eating Italian food not cooking it) would be irresistible..."

"Just a line to say what a great time we had in the apartment and how impressed we were with the thoughtful way it was fitted out. Really spacious and comfortable – even plenty of hangers! Capena was charming and we spent a lot more time in the town than we intended. The House Notes were very useful – Rome by car and train was straightforward as described. Restaurant advice we also took – Big Ali's was great food and value – so impressed with L'Anatra Grassa we ate there 3 times."

Archaeologists"Casa Galilei provides the best possible holiday experience one could wish for. With dramatic views across the gorge, the house is located in the oldest part of the settlement, on a site that has been in use for some 3,000 years. At the same time, its spacious, cool rooms and, above all, tasteful and modern interior all ensure that your stay will be most comfortable. However, the best part of staying at Casa Capena is that you will feel part of the local community, guided by Pucci's unfailing support for the visitor!"

“Staying in Casa Galilei was a wonderful experience. My family and I truly enjoyed the old town charm that Capena has offered. I hope to return again to wonderful and sunny Italy.”

Casa Galilei is the most unique place I've ever stayed in!







“Had a great time in Capena. Places we visited which we can recommend are Cerveteri, Orvieto and Villa Adriana. Had a great time exploring Rome too. Went to some great restaurants to and can particularly recommend L'Anatra Grassa, which has amazing food. Da Felllicino up the hill is good for standard Italian fare too. Thanks for a great week in Casa Marconi and particular thanks to Pucci for looking after us and making us feel welcome in Capena (we've left the directions Pucci gave us for a great parking spot in Rome. 2 euros for the whole day and really central! Just over the bridge from the Olympic stadium).
