Great location worth visiting but book carefully
Although not clear from the Vrbo details on line, this is one of four properties within a relatively small area, managed by a staff who are on site during the day. It felt mostly private although staff watering plants and sweeping up leaves were always around in the morning and tended to do their work (sometimes a bit noisily) at 7-8 am. Things we liked: Location was very good for travelling around. Accommodation was a small cottage but nicely appointed with a gorgeous outside patio area which is mostly private. One of the owners, Ginevra, runs the restaurant that opened on Friday and Saturday. She is genuinely a great host, very friendly and we recommend the dinner experience, due to Ginevra and the nice location. Ginevra also had prepared a very good guide left in the property with advice on places to visit and restaurants to go to and information on local wines. She also brought us vegetables and fruit from her farm. We liked the shared swimming pool which is very large. Things we didn't like: We were caught by surprise when we were checking in. Despite our careful selection of a property which offered WiFi, laundry and air conditioning, we were told on arrival that we needed to pay an additional 100 euros as the air conditioning had just been fitted. We said that the property details included air conditioning and therefore we did not feel additional charges were reasonable which was accepted. We later observed that the air conditioning system did not appear new. We were then told that laundry facilities didn't exist on the entire site and were told that we needed to go into town (next to the supermarket) in order to wash our clothes. This was apparently due to Coved restrictions but property details on Vrbo had not been updated. The WiFi was one of the worst we have experienced despite the property details saying that the WiFI would be excellent ("a very fast WiFi connection"). The WiFi was working for only a few hours over the whole of the seven days. Despite asking for it to be fixed, we were offered the use of the office which of course isn't suitable for family purposes. Trip planning, use of google maps and family contacts were very difficult. The response to our requests to fix the internet was rather poor and appeared to rely on sitting it out. There were some other minor annoyances such as the two sun beds being covered in cat hair for most of the week until we asked the cleaning staff to deal with it.

Ausgezeichnete Ferienwohnung
Eremo delle Fate ist eine wunderschöne Ferienanlage mit drei separaten Apartments, jede mit Zugang zu einer Terrasse oder Freisitz. Es gibt einen großen, parkähnlichen und sehr schönen Garten und zwei Swimmingpools. Man kann im Garten sitzen, grillen (es gibt ein Grillplatz), oder einfach zwischen den Olivenbäumen spazieren gehen. Die Blumen und riesige Töpfe mit Zitruspflanzen sind auch sehr schön. Man merkt überall die Liebe für Details. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig, mit einem wunderschönen Blick über Olivenplantagen, sehr nah an Spoleto (1 km) und vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten in Umbrien. Die Apartments sind geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber und geräumig. Wir hatten das kleinere Apartment (Folletti), aber das war perfekt für zwei Personen. Die Lesenische am Fenster war besonderes gemütlich, und es gab eine gute Auswahl an Büchern (auf Englisch und Italienisch). Ginevra und Ihre Familie haben uns beindruckt mit Ihrer ausgezeichneten Gastfreundschaft und haben uns auch gut beraten bezüglich Essen und Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Umgebung. Wir haben insbesondere Ginevras Hilfsbereitschaft sehr geschätzt (ich hatte mir einen Zeh gebrochen und wir mussten kurz das Krankenhaus besuchen). Sie ist wirklich eine tolle Gastgeberin, energievoll und mit vielen guten Ideen, die den Aufenthalt zu einem besonderen Erlebnis machen (z.B. was wäre mit ein Picknick an den Römische Ruinen von Carsulae? Oder eine spontane Vorführung wie man frittierte Salbeiblätter als Vorspeise vorbereitet). Wir haben sehr unsere informativen Gespräche genossen (Ihr Englisch ist sehr gut). Es gibt eine kleine Locanda vor Ort, wo die Besitzerin nach Vereinbarung für die Gäste kocht. Wir können das nur jedem empfehlen, das Essen war sehr fein und die Atmosphäre draußen am Kamin wirklich etwas Besonderes. Insgesamt, eine ausgezeichnete Ferienwohnung die wir weiter empfehlen können!

Perfect Holiday Destination
I Folletti is perfect for 2 people. It has all the facilities we needed for a two week stay. The location is absolutely beautiful - very peaceful with lovely grounds. There was plenty to do and see within easy reach, but it was also a pleasure to spend lazy days without going anywhere. Ginevra is an excellent host, and I recommend the cooking lessons she offers.

OTTIMALE PER VISITARE L'UMBRIA E PER RIPOSARSI
CON LA FAMIGLIA (4 PERSONE) ABBIAMO DECISO DI TROVARE UNA BUONA SISTEMAZIONE CHE CONCILIASSE LE VISITE AI BORGHI UMBRI CON IL RIPOSO; NON POTEVAMO SCEGLIERE DI MEGLIO. INOLTRE LA PROPRIETARIA SI E' SPESA PER INTEGRARE LA VACANZA CON IL DIVERTIMENTO PROPONENDOCI VARIE INIZIATIVE (RAFTING NELLA VALLE DEL NERA, CENA IN GIARDINO CON GLI ALTRI OSPITI, SERVIZIO FOTOGRAFICO E SUPPORTO NELL'ORGANIZZARE UNA TRASFERTA NELLA VICINA CITTA' DI ROMA). LA STRUTTURA E' NUOVA E COMPLETA DI TUTTO CIO' CHE NECESSITA PER STARE BENE. NESSUN DUBBIO NEL PROPORLA ANCHE AD AMICI E COLLEGHI. GRAZIE A GINEVRA ED AI SUOI COLLABORATORI.
