Restaurant

Because of its architectonic structure characterized by wood ceilings and a-frames, the hall is the most spacious room of the restaurant. In fact it can host almost 200 people. It’s perfect for parties and ceremonies with a high number of guests, but it can also be used for different types of settings depending on what you need. During the evenings and weekends, it’s full of tables of friends, groups and families with children, but always aiming at your comfort first. Thanks to the direct access to the observation deck and to the side courtyard, the hall is perfect for those events where outdoor spaces, buffet and dancing parties are needed.

Among the many available rooms, Sala del Camino surely is the most intimate and comfortable one, being able to recreate that rural atmosphere which for the majority of us means total relaxation, escape from the city and rediscovery of the authentic values. The suffused but warm lights, the classic table cloths and the stone walls contribute to make this room the most requested during the winter time, when the magic of the burning fireplace heats not only the body but also the soul. Particularly good for groups, it can be arranged for small groups or themed events, in fact it can host about 30 people.

The loft overlooks the reception room and it has two connecting rooms that can host up to 40 people. The wooden roof with exposed beams and the parquet floor contribute to making warm and friendly the atmosphere, that is perfect for private parties. In fact one of the two smaller room can become ballroom or a gaming room for children. This versatile and friendly loft is chosen also for romantic evenings, in fact it can offer more discretion. The loft has a reserved bathroom, that makes it independent from the other rooms.

Thanks to its perfect position, the large terrace of over 100 square metres is well lighted and heated by the sun throughout the day and offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding lands. A privileged point on the deep green of the Sabine hills, surrounded by olive and walnut trees as far as the eye can see. The terrace can also become a location for a lunch immersed in the nature, a place for receptions, events and balls. The lateral curtains, the wooden roof and the outdoor heaters make possible the use for the whole year, with the exception of the coolest months.

The courtyard, next and parallel to the hall, has a direct access to the inner forecourt. It is situated in front of Casale del Gelso. A space for relaxation and convivial interlude in the reception areas, offers a break in the open air that is often an occasion to bring forward or extend the pleasures of good food, seated in company on original brick benches. Its more than 300 square metres can be equipped, on request, with parasols, tables and chairs and used both for breakfast by the guests and for buffets or outdoor meetings.

Borghetto d’Arci offers to its guests an outdoor equipped playground for children from 3 to 8 years. The Playland is situated near the main entrance and allows children to have fun without disturbing the guests of the restaurant. Playhouses, paths, slides and rocking equipments are delimited by a perimeter fence: this area is free but not provided on any surveillance, so parents are in charge of their own kids.
During the meals and crowed events, a babysitting service is provided upon request.
