La Coccinella

Eight rooms in a family-run guesthouse on the wooded slopes above Lake Bracciano, La Coccinella sits within the volcanic crater landscape of the Parco Regionale di Bracciano-Martignano, roughly 35km northwest of Rome.

Anguillara Sabazia occupies a medieval promontory over the lake, and the guesthouse's position on Via dei Bravi keeps guests a short walk from the old town's lakeside trattorias and the ferry pier. The rating of 9.7 across early reviews points to attentive hosts rather than resort-scale amenities.

Train connections from Anguillara to Roma Ostiense run roughly every hour, making day trips to central Rome straightforward without a car.
