"Welcome to our beautiful
resort is a place to make friends and relax amid the
stunning natural beauty of the Etruscan and ancient Roman footpaths
that
surround the Lake "

together with ancient Roman hospitality which as it has been for centuries, cordial and personal. We consider
hospitality an art which has to be preserved and looked after".
Villaggio
Punta del Lago
At the outskirts of Rome this is your
Australian home
Lake Vico (it's ancient
Lacus Ciminus) is a large lake of volcanic origin set on the Cimini
Mountains, one of the most charming areas in the province of Viterbo.
The lake formed about 400, 000 years ago after some violent volcanic
eruptions.
Today, many excellent
resorts built around the lake make it a favourite tourist
destination. The area offers much to those who enjoy quiet and
tranquil places. Covered with chestnut, oak and beech trees, the hills
of the Cimini Mountains are ideal for a relaxing holiday. However
for the more energetic there are excursions on horseback and treking
both along panoramic paths. The economy of the area is mainly based
on hazelnut growing; while staying with us and visit
one of the many small ancient, Etruscan, Roman and medioeval towns
on the hills, be sure to taste a tozzetto (a typical local
biscuit
made with hazelnuts) when visiting one of the small ancient
Etruscan, Roman or medioeval towns in the hills. Wonderful nature and good food
are just two of the reasons that make this area a lovely place
to stay.
Just a few miles from
the lake you can find some hidden jewels, such as Farnese
Palace at Caprarola and the Roman amphitheatre at Sutri; or typical
medieval towns, such as Ronciglione and Soriano nel Cimino.
