We had a wonderful week in honor of my mother's 80th birthday. The host warmly welcomed us with freshly baked foccaccias! Everyone had their own apartment and yet we could also cook and eat together in the lovely room downstairs. The pizza night was a great success and also the tastiest pizzas we have ever eaten. Really a top house if you go with several families.

Great stay! The owner was very welcoming. The property is superb
Arrival 31 July 2021
We had a really lovely holiday - the house, garden and pool were perfect and the owners are really great, very welcoming and friendly. The location is quiet but not isolated, we did some very nice walks and there's lot's to see and do in the area. We'd definitely recommend!
Lovely villa in a small town, with many possibilities to visit the surrounding mountains and national parks. The villa is separated into different apartments, which is extremely useful for families or groups that sometimes want to withdraw to their own apartment. Owner was also really helpful and made our holiday even better. Would certainly recommend!
