There are nine double rooms, two twin bedded rooms, one single and a dormitory for 4 children, plus accommodations for extra guests or staff at extra cost. There are twelve bedrooms in all.
There is a large dining room, many common rooms and every room is well appointed and impeccably furnished with the finest furnishings.
There is a games room in the Liminoia annex where there is a Table tennis and foosball tables, and there in the main villa there is a children’s television room with a Playstation and racing seat for Gran Turismo.
The gardens are beyond spectacular. The plan of the Villa Cetinale gardens is in the Giardino all’italiana style, with a strong solo primary axis.
It begins at the lower terminus far below the house, with a gigantic statue of Hercules. The axis extends across the natural and agricultural landscape, and the midway immediate villa surroundings, to its upper terminus, a hermitage Romitorio high on the hill above.
On axis at the front facade of the villa is the Limonaia, a semi-walled potted lemon garden, accented with statues by Giuseppe Mazzuoli (1644-1725) and ‘Baroque style’ topiary. On axis at the rear facade a symmetrical double staircase rises to the primary villa entry, at the piano nobile (‘floor one’) level, following the Roman custom of reserving the ground floor unnumbered for the domestic service uses.
Behind the villa an avenue of Italian cypress (Cupressus sempervirens) defines the axis through gardens and fields to the base of the hill. A significant and very long stone stairway carries the axis up through the hillside’s woodlands, to the focal point of the hermitage tower- which was built on top of the hill for one of Pope Alexander VII’s relatives to live in to serve penance in after killing a person.
From beside the villa a secondary axis extends northeast across a balustraded terrace, and through an olive grove to a very tall masonry bell tower, with clock.
There are several original non-axial elements of the gardens. Northeast of the main axis beyond the bell tower a garden walkway proceeds around a hill, going through the ‘Holy Woods’ with stone statues and sculptures of animals, also by Guiseppe Mazuoli. West across the axis a long looping walkway passes through open woods past a series of religious shrines with statues. Olive groves are also part of the landscape surrounding the villa and long axis.
