Casa Sabina is a spacious, restored 17th century apartment in the historic heart of Soriano nel Cimino. It is owned by the Casciani family who have been part of the town for generations. The apartment sits on one of the oldest roads in the town, built directly La Rocca, the medieval centre of the town which forms part of Mount Cimino. There is a mixture of new and mid-century modernist and vintage furniture – we have designed the apartment to provide peace, privacy and a calm environment amid the hubbub of Italian life.
