A country estate in the Comino hills
Valle dell'Aquila occupies a stretch of the Valle di Comino at Settefrati, where the hills of southern Lazio run towards the Abruzzo National Park. Its old stone buildings, bio-farm and private gardens make up a four-star hotel di charme, with ivy-covered walls, classical statues and a stone fountain among the grounds.
Vows in the garden, receptions under canvas or in the Sala Bianca
Ceremonies are held beneath a white wrought-iron gazebo on the lawn or on the patio that overlooks the valley. For the reception, couples choose between a candlelit marquee and the country-chic Sala Bianca, with the garden and the lit pool for the hours after dinner. The estate takes weddings of up to 300 guests.
A table drawn from the bio-farm
The estate restaurant cooks from local and seasonal produce in the Ciociaria tradition, and wedding banquets are built around the bio-farm's own harvest. Herbs and botanicals appear as centrepieces, and tables can be laid in the Sala Bianca, the marquee or the garden.

Hotel stay
Beautiful spot
My husband and I stayed here for two nights whilst on our Honeymoon tour of Italy, his family were originally from Settifrati so it was a good place for us to visit. The grounds and hotel are very well kept and I understand they host a lot of weddings, I think it would be an excellent venue. There were only a couple of other guests staying at the same time and we were the only two to eat in the restaurant one evening. Whilst the food was good I missed the company of other guests. The bedrooms are ok but on the small side, particularly the bathrooms. Breakfast whilst included is very basic and didn't compare well to others we have enjoyed on our trip.
There is lots of nice walks etc to do in the local area and I would recommend a visit to the local lake, the water is incredibly clear and whilst freezing cold, it is worth a dip!!
