From Rome, take the A1 Napoli from the GRA, then the San Cesario exit, through tolls, turn left. Follow main road for 3 km, turn right onto the Casilina. Further 2 km turn left onto the Prenestina Nuova (signed Palestrina)

Electronic Maps:
You can use Maporama or Via Michelin or Mappy but none recognise Via Loreto correctly, but will show it up as Via Marcigliana or Via Santa Maria. If you find the Via Formalicchi on the map, we are on the junction and the Formalicchi and the Santa Maria, or the Marcigliana
For those of you with Microsoft AutoRoute, enter Via Marcigliana 1, 00036 Palestrina, and it will be very close.
For those of you with satellite navigation systems, the coordinates are Lat 41° 48' 52 N (41.81444) and Lon 12° 53' 15 E (12.8875) or x = 1434600m and y = 5104700m
Autostrade tolls - the toll from Roma Sud (heading towards Napoli) and exiting at San Cesario is 80 cents. The machines are automatic, put your card in that you received on joining the toll road, the sign will indicate how much, and you put it in the basket. If you lose or damage your ticket, you will have to pay 48 euros.
Local Map
The flashing lights, which never worked, at the end of our street have been replaced by a roundabout.
Coming from the south, having taken the Valmontone exit, and following the signs initally for Rome, then in Labico follow signs for Palestrina, (look for the Carabinari sign). After 3.5 km you arrive at the house (on the left)
Coming from the north, you will pass Gallicano nel Lazio on your left (don't turn left into Gallicano, although ultimately you must visit the old walled city), and you come onto the Via Piedemonte. Follow this until it ends (T junction with the Banca di Roma on your left) and turn right. After 100m cross the flashing lights into the Via Santa Maria, which, after 1 km (at the cemetery) turns into the Via Loreto.
Coming from Rome (or the airports) having taken exit 19 on the GRA, and exited eventually at San Cesario, turned left, then right then left, you are on the Prenestina Nuova. Follow this, past Zagarola on your left, until you reach the outskirts of Palestrina. Keep going for another 1.5km, and you reach the lights. Turn right into the Via Santa Maria, which, after 1 km (at the cemetery) turns into the Via Loreto
Once you reach the Via Loreto, drive for another 1.5 km, Anne's Place is on the right.
