We couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay
The villa is beautiful with large, spacious rooms and a wonderful mixture of more modern and older pieces of furniture. The pictures just don't do it justice. The kitchen is well equipped with ample pots, pans, cooking and serving dishes and enough cutlery, crockery and glassware to accommodate a small army!
The outside areas are equally impressive with a wonderful loggia just off the kitchen for alfresco dining or chilling. The outside kitchen is also close by with its wood fired grill and pizza oven, gas hob and sink with running water. There is also a patio area with sofa, stools and a low table and of course the pool with its own terrace and sun loungers as well as a volleyball net in the garden and table tennis under the covered parking area.
As a party of 7 adults from 6 different households we found there was plenty of space for us all to function as individuals and as a group.
The villa is very secluded and peaceful but so many places are easily reachable within an hour and the landscapes are stunning.
Michela is a very genuine and warm hearted person and was a wonderful host; always quick to respond to any messages before and during our stay. She went out of her way to help us on more than one occasion, even picking up two of our party when transport plans went haywire. The property and its grounds are meticulously maintained and Daniel and/or his wife, Aurica, discreetly turn up every other day to clean the pool, attend to the chickens and ducks.
