Guest comments
Slenders Marielle 2005-03-13 In August we visited Buon Riposo. Just one week and we were sorry to have to leave. The environment and Il Glicine was really beautiful and relaxing. Thank you for a great stay. My parents will visit you in 2005!
Dave Craig 2005-02-20 Fantastic place had two brilliant weeks in August 2003 staying in il Gilcine apartment. The apartment was very clean on our arrival with some complimentary wine from its own vine yard. Swimming pool was a blessing as the temp was 47 one day. Owner spoke quite good English and can fully recommend this place. We hope to return some day.
Jo Tunnicliffe 2005-02-07 My husband and myself stayed buon riposo August 2004, with our 2 young children my parents and nephew aged 10. The holiday was enjoyed by all and we are hoping to return again in the future. Both the grounds and apartments are relaxing and as for the wine and olive oil produced on site. Well we certainly found a taste for it. Thank you to Buon Riposo
