{ "source": "Fashion Week Venues", "title": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva", "description": "Tenuta la Selva offers a spacious garden area by the pool, perfect for celebrating birthdays, communions, and other events. Enjoy various entertainment options with games for children, table tennis, foosball, a small soccer field, and volleyball, ensuring fun for all guests. The venue includes covered structures, with one accommodating over 70 seats, suitable for hosting buffets or themed stations such as a bar, DJ, or culinary displays. Tenuta la Selva is an ideal location for your special events.", "tldr": "Tenuta La Selva is a 1,000 sqm (10,764 sq ft) outdoor estate venue for rent in Sant'Angelo Romano, in the hills northeast of Rome, built around a pool terrace, open lawn and covered structures. The character is rural Lazio countryside rather than urban warehouse, with a single day rate of 900€ and a one day minimum rental. Best For Strongest fit is poolside cocktail receptions and seated dinners for up to 70 guests under cover, followed by private brand parties and client hospitality days, outdoor collection previews and resort or swimwear presentations, and brand shoot locations needing pool, lawn and terrace backdrops in one hire. Sample sale space and buyer preview formats work here only in the covered structure, which can be booked by the day. Standout Features A full swimming pool with surrounding garden terrace anchors the site, and one covered structure seats over 70 for buffets or themed stations such as bar, DJ booth or live culinary displays. Additional differentiators include a complete kitchen suitable for full catering setup, fitting rooms with garment rails and counters carried over from retail use, on site parking for guest and crew vehicles, installed lighting plus sound and video equipment, and recreation zones with table tennis, foosball, five a side pitch and volleyball court. Every listed feature is vetted by Fashion Week Venues before the space goes live. Location Sant'Angelo Romano sits roughly 30 km northeast of central Rome, reached in about 40 minutes by car via the A1 and SP23, with Guidonia Montecelio rail station around 15 minutes away by road and Rome Ciampino airport approximately one hour. The immediate street is quiet countryside with direct vehicle access to the gate, so production crews can unload trucks beside the setup area and guests arrive without city traffic or loading restrictions. Availability Minimum rental is one day at a published day rate of 900€, and the venue is currently available for short-term rental with single day bookings only. Book six to eight weeks ahead for May to September dates, when Roman outdoor venues at this scale typically sell out, and allow longer lead time around Milan and Rome fashion week windows in February and September. How to Book Send your brief with dates and guest numbers to request availability and our team will reply within 24h with a hold, with no charge until confirmed. Permit paperwork, catering and event staffing, and fit-out coordination are handled by Fashion Week Venues on the brand's behalf, so enquire now to secure your date.", "activationIdeas": "This is the format the site was built for, because the pool terrace and the covered structure sit adjacent to each other and let you run drinks in the open and seated service under cover without moving guests across the property. In practice the 1,000 sqm footprint holds 120 to 150 standing comfortably, while the covered structure seats over 70 for a plated or buffet moment. The on site kitchen means catering arrives with a working base rather than a temporary tent. Resort and Swimwear Collection Preview A working pool with garden terrace does the job that resort and swimwear presentations usually pay to fake on a set, which is why this reads as a credible fashion presentation location outside Rome. The fitting rooms and garment racks already on site handle changes and steaming, so you are not building a backstage from scratch. Plan for 60 to 80 seated guests under the covered structure, with the pool edge used as the presentation line and the lawn kept clear for circulation. Product Launch The covered structure gives you a controlled reveal area with installed lighting and sound and video equipment, which is what makes this workable for a launch rather than just a party. Brands running launches in spaces like this typically set the product display and stage inside the covered zone, then push guests out to the pool terrace for hospitality once the presentation ends. Fixtures, plinths and branded surfaces can be brought in through our production and build team within the one day build and strike window. Brand Shoot and Editorial Location Day Strong location day value, because you get pool, lawn, terrace, covered structure and rural Lazio hillside backdrops inside a single 900€ hire. Crews get direct vehicle access to the gate and on site parking, so trucks unload beside the setup area with no city loading restrictions to schedule around. Electricity and installed lighting cover interior and dusk work, and the kitchen doubles as a crew catering base. Budget the full day, since the lease is single day only and there is no overnight hold. E-commerce Shoot What makes this work for e-commerce specifically is the retail infrastructure already in place, with fitting rooms, garment racks, counters and a stock room that let a styling team run high volume look changes without a separate wardrobe build. A two or three person crew can cycle 40 to 60 looks in a day using the covered structure as the shaded shooting bay and the terrace for daylight sets. Air conditioning and heating keep the covered area usable across shoulder seasons. Video Production Workable for campaign and social film because the property is quiet countryside, roughly 30 km from central Rome, so ambient noise and passing traffic do not compromise sound takes. Power, heating, air conditioning and existing sound and video equipment reduce what you need to truck in, and the pool provides a reflective water setup most urban studios cannot offer. The constraint worth knowing is the single day maximum, so multi day narrative shoots need to be scheduled as separate confirmed bookings. Influencer Event and Content Creation Day Built for content capture, since the pool, lawn and covered structure give three distinct visual environments within a short walk, which is what a creator group needs to produce varied assets in one visit. We would cap this at 30 to 50 creators so the pool terrace does not congest and each set stays shootable. Guest lists, seeding and creator selection can be coordinated through our influencer marketing team alongside the venue booking. Summer Press Day and Media Preview A credible press day venue for a summer or resort collection, because parking on site removes the arrival friction that usually limits attendance at venues outside a city centre. Set the collection on garment racks and counters inside the covered structure for viewing and note taking, then use the terrace for a hosted lunch prepared from the on site kitchen. Realistic capacity is 40 to 60 press and stylists across a staggered morning and afternoon schedule rather than a single seating. One Day Sample Sale Physically well equipped for a sale, with counters, fitting rooms, garment racks, a stock room and a security system already in place, so the retail layer is close to turnkey. Be honest about the location though, since this is countryside rather than high street and there is no passing footfall, which makes it suited to an invitation only or private client sale of 200 to 400 shoppers driven by direct outreach. Card terminals and checkout flow can be arranged through point of sale and payments.", "neighbourhoodMood": "Production crews, event caterers and photo teams working out of Rome are the people who actually use this pocket of the Sabina hills, far more than any resident retail or design community. Sant'Angelo Romano sits in the working orbit of Guidonia Montecelio, where set builders, scaffolding and staging suppliers, lighting hire firms and catering kitchens operate from the light industrial strips along the Via Tiburtina corridor, and where crews from Cinecittà and the Tiburtina production houses come out for exteriors they cannot get inside the GRA. The village itself is anchored by the Castello Orsini Cesi on the hilltop, with a handful of trattorias, a bar on the main piazza and very little commercial fabric beyond that. Wedding planners, food and drink brands, motorsport and eyewear clients shooting summer campaigns, and Roman agencies producing client hospitality days are the recurring names in our booking sheets here. In our experience placing brands in this area, the value is in what you can build on site rather than what already exists around it, which is why it reads more like a production asset than a short-term commercial space in a creative quarter. Brands choose this address over central Rome because the city centre simply cannot give you a pool, a lawn, covered dining for seventy and truck access on the same footprint at any sane price. Via Margutta and the Tridente around Via del Babuino and Via dei Condotti deliver prestige and press proximity but come with tiny floorplates, protected facades, tourist saturation and permit friction that eats your build schedule. Trastevere and Monti offer atmosphere and walk-in energy but restrict amplified sound and late finishes because of residential complaints. Ostiense and the Testaccio market zone are the honest urban alternative for raw industrial volume, and they are the right call when your guest list arrives by taxi from a Centro Storico hotel. What this venue offers instead is a controlled private site roughly forty minutes from the centre by car via the A1 and SP23, close enough to Tivoli and Villa d'Este to bundle a location day, with parking that removes the arrival chaos entirely. What it does not offer is press walk-ups, boutique adjacency or buyer footfall between appointments. If those matter more than space and privacy, use our venue sourcing team to weigh this against an inner city option before committing. Arriving here feels like arriving at a private estate rather than a venue, and that shapes the entire guest rhythm. The approach is a quiet country road with olive terraces and low walls, the gate opens directly onto hardstanding where a production van or catering truck can reverse in beside the setup area, and there is no queue, no kerbside negotiation and no loading window to argue about. Mornings are near silent apart from agricultural traffic and school runs in the village above, which makes the site excellent for early build days and clean daylight shooting around the pool and terrace. Afternoons warm considerably between June and September, so shade planning and timing matter, and the natural energy peaks in the golden hour when the pool and the hills behind read best on camera. What we consistently hear from brand teams who activate here is that guests treat the day as an outing rather than a drop in, which lifts dwell time and content capture significantly, and our production and build crews find the open plan far easier to dress than a listed city interior. Be clear on the limitation: this is not a location for temporary retail, spontaneous walk-in traffic, street visibility or any format that depends on passing consumers. Every single attendee arrives because you invited them and gave them directions.", "faq": [ { "question": "Is this space available for pop-up shops?", "answer": "Yes, Tenuta La Selva can be booked for a pop-up shop, but the retail element needs to sit inside the covered structure rather than out on the open lawn. The 1,000 sqm estate already carries counters, garment racks and fitting rooms from previous retail use, so the merchandising backbone of a temporary retail setup is on site rather than trucked in. Because Sant'Angelo Romano is a quiet hillside village roughly 30 km northeast of central Rome, this works best as a destination or invitation-led pop-up rather than a footfall-driven one. Brands running this format here typically pair the retail zone with poolside hospitality so guests have a reason to make the 40 minute drive. If you want a street-facing shop with organic passing trade instead, we can point you toward alternatives when you enquire." }, { "question": "What does Fashion Week Venues handle on my behalf for this booking?", "answer": "We handle the full path from brief to load-out, and what we manage on your behalf at this address specifically is the temporary use agreement with the estate owner, local permit paperwork for outdoor amplified sound and catering, and coordination of the kitchen and event staffing. We also brief the crew on the countryside access route via the A1 and SP23 so trucks arrive at the gate without a wasted hour. Furniture, lighting plans, DJ or bar station builds and on-the-day floor management are all coordinated through us, and you can add retail staffing" }, { "question": "How much does it cost to rent Tenuta La Selva for a day?", "answer": "The published day rate is 900€ for the full 1,000 sqm estate including the pool terrace, lawn and covered structures. That figure covers the venue hire itself, not catering, furniture beyond what is installed, staffing or production build, which we quote separately against your brief. For a poolside cocktail reception of 70 guests in Lazio, brands typically land somewhere between two and four times the venue rate once food, drink, staff and lighting are added. You can model your own numbers with our budget calculator" }, { "question": "What is the minimum rental period?", "answer": "One day is both the minimum and the maximum, so this is a single-day short-term rental rather than a multi-week residency. That means your build, event and strike all need to fit inside the booked day, which is realistic here because the covered structure is move-in ready with lighting, sound and video equipment already installed. In our experience handling single-day bookings at estate venues outside Rome, the practical rhythm is an early morning crew call, guests from late afternoon, and clear-down the same night. If your concept genuinely needs two or three consecutive days for build and shoot, tell us at enquiry stage and we will ask the owner whether back-to-back days can be released." }, { "question": "How many guests can the venue hold?", "answer": "One covered structure seats over 70 guests for a buffet or seated dinner, while the wider 1,000 sqm garden and pool area holds a considerably larger standing cocktail reception. The occupancy figure on file for the site is just over 1,000 across the full grounds, so the binding constraint on your numbers is almost always catering and covered shelter rather than square metres. For a brand presentation we would normally seat or stage 70 under cover and let the overflow circulate around the pool terrace and lawn. Confirm your headcount when you request availability so we can size the covered footprint and staffing accordingly." }, { "question": "Is the space suitable for a fashion shoot or content production?", "answer": "Yes, and it is one of the stronger uses of this venue because you get a swimming pool, an open lawn, a garden terrace and covered interiors in a single day rate. Resort, swimwear and eyewear campaigns shoot well here given the Lazio hillside backdrop and unobstructed sky, and the on-site fitting rooms and garment racks mean styling and changing do not need a separate unit. There is installed lighting, full electricity, parking for crew vehicles and a working kitchen for crew catering, so a small production runs without generators. If you need a build element such as a set wall or plinth, our production and build" }, { "question": "Where exactly is the venue and how do guests get there?", "answer": "Tenuta La Selva sits in Sant'Angelo Romano, roughly 30 km northeast of central Rome and about 40 minutes by car via the A1 and SP23. Guidonia Montecelio rail station is around 15 minutes away by road and Rome Ciampino airport is approximately one hour, so international guests can reach you comfortably in an afternoon. Most brands running events here arrange shuttle transfers from central Rome because public transport to the village itself is limited, and we can coordinate that as part of the booking. If your audience needs to be inside the city rather than outside it, you can also compare browse all spaces" }, { "question": "Is there parking and vehicle access for deliveries?", "answer": "Yes, there is on-site parking for both guest cars and crew vehicles, and vehicles can pull directly up to the gate beside the setup area. This is one of the practical advantages of hiring a countryside estate rather than a central Rome address, since there are no loading windows, no bus lanes and no residents parking restrictions to schedule around. In our experience handling bookings at rural Lazio venues, a 3.5 tonne van or small box truck unloads without permit paperwork, which removes a whole layer of cost from your production. Send your vehicle list with your enquiry and we will confirm turning space and access timings with the owner." }, { "question": "What equipment and amenities are already installed?", "answer": "The venue comes with internet, air conditioning, heating, electricity, installed lighting, sound and video equipment, a full kitchen, a stock room, counters, garment racks and fitting rooms. There is also a security system, an elevator and parking, which is unusual for an outdoor estate and reduces what you need to hire in. For a cocktail reception or press day this means you are largely furnishing rather than building, and any gaps in seating, tables or display can be covered through furniture rental" }, { "question": "Can I use the pool as part of my event?", "answer": "Yes, the pool and its surrounding garden terrace are the anchor of the site and are included in the 900€ day rate. Brands use it as a visual centrepiece for cocktail receptions and swimwear or resort presentations rather than for swimming, and we normally recommend confirming supervision and liability terms with the owner if guests will actually enter the water. Poolside lighting and a DJ or bar station on the terrace edge is the layout that works most reliably for evening events at this venue. Flag your intended use of the pool in your brief so we can build the correct clauses into the licence to occupy." }, { "question": "What permits do I need for a brand event here?", "answer": "For a private brand event on this estate you are generally working under a temporary use agreement with the owner rather than a change of use permit, with additional local clearance needed for amplified outdoor sound and for food service from the on-site kitchen. Sant'Angelo Romano falls under the Provincia di Roma, and the practical requirements are noise curfew compliance for evening music and confirmation that your caterer holds valid Italian food handling registration. If you are selling product on site, that adds a commercial element which we declare in the paperwork. We prepare and submit this on your behalf, and our permit guide" }, { "question": "Which event formats work best at this venue?", "answer": "Poolside cocktail receptions and seated dinners for up to 70 guests are the strongest fit, followed by private brand parties, client hospitality days and outdoor collection previews. The recreation zones with table tennis, foosball, a five a side pitch and a volleyball court also make it viable for full-day team or partner events where you need programming beyond food and drink. Sample sale and buyer preview formats are possible but should be staged in the covered structure using the existing counters and fitting rooms. What does not work well here is anything relying on walk-in traffic, since the setting is rural and access is by car." }, { "question": "How far in advance should I book?", "answer": "Book six to eight weeks ahead for any date between May and September, which is when outdoor venues at this scale around Rome fill first. Allow longer lead time if your event sits near the February or September fashion week windows in Milan and Rome, as crew, catering and furniture suppliers are all stretched in those periods. For a straightforward single-day cocktail reception with light furnishing we have turned bookings around in under three weeks, but that assumes the date is still open. Request availability with your target date and we will confirm whether it can be held." }, { "question": "How do I enquire and what happens next?", "answer": "Send us your dates, guest numbers and event format and we reply within 24h with availability and a provisional hold on the date. From there we issue a costed proposal covering the 900€ venue rate plus catering, staffing, furniture and any build, and once you approve it we move to contract and deposit with the estate owner. There is no charge until confirmed, so the enquiry and proposal stage carries no financial commitment for your brand. If Tenuta La Selva turns out not to be right for your brief, we will suggest comparable Italian venues from the same enquiry rather than making you start again." }, { "question": "What is the day rate?", "answer": "€900 / day. Weekly and press-preview rates are quoted on request." }, { "question": "Is staging, branding and fit-out permitted?", "answer": "Yes. Fashion Week Venues runs the full production build — signage, fixtures, lighting, sound, catering and staffing — subject to venue rules. Include your fit-out brief in the inquiry." }, { "question": "What is included?", "answer": "Included on-site: Internet, Air Conditioning, Security System, Stock Room, Counters, Fitting Rooms, Garment Rack, Lighting." }, { "question": "How far in advance should we book?", "answer": "Fashion week windows book 6–10 weeks out. Off-season activations can be secured in 2–3 weeks." } ], "editorialFaqCount": 14, "city": "Sant'Angelo Romano", "country": "IT", "lat": 42.04383376, "lon": 12.68544855, "areaSqm": 1000, "areaSqft": 10764, "priceLabel": "€900 / day", "priceEur": 900, "coverImage": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-1.jpg", "gallery": [ { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-2.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-3.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, interior vi…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-4.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, second inte…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-5.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, third inter…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-6.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, additional…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-7.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, further int…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-8.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, detail view" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-9.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, further det…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-10.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, interior vi…" }, { "url": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/i/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00-11.jpg", "caption": "Versatile Event Space with Pool - Tenuta La Selva, 1000 sqm, private event, pop-up rental in Sant'Angelo Romano, second inte…" } ], "amenities": [ "Internet", "Air Conditioning", "Security System", "Stock Room", "Counters", "Fitting Rooms", "Garment Rack", "Lighting", "Furniture", "Sound & Video Equipment", "Electricity", "Heating", "Parking", "Elevator", "Kitchen" ], "useCases": [ "private event", "cocktail reception" ], "canonicalUrl": "https://fashionweekvenues.com/spaces/versatile-event-space-with-pool-tenuta-la-selva-8c539e00" }
