Guest comments
This beautifully restored location is in a tranquil small town yet is close to many other major cities of great variety and interest. It is easy to get to Morra by car and we enjoyed walking the surroundings and could get all our groceries. We enjoyed excellent meals at the nearby restaurant "Il Bosco" when we did not wish to cook. The pool was a great delight in the heat, although the views accross the fields in the valley below kept us cool and unhurried as well! All in all we would like to stay in this lovely location with our charming hosts again soon (Sue T. South Africa).

Une très belle propriété dans le village rural , au bout d' une vallée tranquille de tabac. La maison est très agréable, meublée avec goût dans la tradition de la région. La piscine est très vaste et lorsque l'on se baigne on est entouré par les belles collines de l'Ombrie . Les hôtes sont très sympathiques, font tout pour que le séjour soit le plus agréable. Une adresse à retenir (NathalieW. Reims).
