Very relaxing holiday in an ideal location
What a lovely house. The outdoor eating area is perfect for a large group, especially because it stays in the shade all day long. The bedrooms are comfortable (fans were v useful in the heat!) and the bathrooms are lovely. We really enjoyed cooking in the well-appointed kitchen and using the delicious herbs growing in the garden. The ice machine was a godsend! I baked bread in the mornings, ate and swam all day and slept like a log. We experienced fireflies, the cat, golden orioles and wild boar! Thanks so much.

How to relax
Our stay was blissful. If wanting to get away & chill, then this is the place to stay. Beautiful scenery, dips in the pool, twilight meals outdoors watching the fire flies dart about. The area has numerous quaint hill towns to visit. It was a wrench to leave.

About the host

Hosted by Iain and Judith

Host profile image
We live in Perthshire in Scotland. We fell for this part of Italy many years ago and purchased this lovely house as a family holiday home 14 years ago before embarking on a restoration programme with a local geometra known to us through a mutual friend. We have had many great times in Casa Wales with our 3 children, family and friends. We love it very much.

Why they chose this property

The area is very beautiful, peaceful and populated by lovely people. It is endlessly interesting, but never overrun by tourists, even in high summer. There are many restaurants to choose from, and an abundance of beautifully preserved hill top villages and small towns to explore. The area is great for walkers and we particularly love the gorge walks in high summer, though there are many high peak options too. Also a great area for cycling (road bikes, mountain bikes, ebikes) which we love. There is information in the house on walks and on many local attractions.

What makes this property unique

The house benefits from being very accessible, whilst is secluded without being remote. There are quite likely to be memorable wildlife encounters during a stay at the house with deer, boar, porcupines, buzzards, lizards, fire flies and many other animals in the vicinity. The village, which benefits from an excellent restaurant/pizzeria, two bars and a good range of shops, is about 1.8 kms away, and is walkable along tarmac (uphill on the way there) or via the 'white' road that cuts through the fields.
