Tranquility, style and nature - just wonderful
This old country house has been restored with attention to detail, a beautiful place to relax and recharge batteries. We had a wonderful time and already look forward to coming back next year. Carmelo and his partner are excellent hosts and helped us greatly to manage quarantine rules. Thank you!

Could not recommend enough
Where do I start, this property is an absolute gem. We were a group of 4 that stayed for 8 nights and could not get over how beautiful the villa and property were. The pool area is perfect for soaking up the sun, and the small seated areas around the property give you lots of really cool areas to hang out in. The villa itself has so much space, and Olga & Carmelo were super friendly and easy to deal with. Would 100% come back and stay here again

A stunning typical Italian country property
The house is amazing!! It has mod cons but has been refurbished tradionally - the pictures are an accurate representation. The grounds are stunning- huge, with lots of hidden corners, an absolute pleasure. The hosts were lovely and suggested a few trips and were helpful with things like supermarkets and dealing with the power being turned off by the electricity company ( only 1 day, did not spoil things and added to the adventure having candle light). 2 caveats for future bookers. Just be aware the 3rd bedroom and library are accessed via a very steep ladder. Not a problem for us with teenagers but may be an issue. The natural pool sits perfectly in the setting. Have to admit if you are used to traditional clinical holiday pools you may find it a shock to swim with frogs, a turtle and smell pond like after your dip!! Was good to cool off though, just to make you aware of the reality of having this type of pool. The kitchen is very well equipped all you need for your break. It is an absolute hidden gem. I want to buy it and live there forever!! Would love to experience a Christmas there - fingers crossed one day ....... Highly highly recommended
