Karsten, you and your family were great guests to host, thank you so much for staying, you are welcome back anytime,
This lovingly restored villa is a wonderful mix of the old and the new. The bathroom and kitchen are stylishly designed, boasting great appliances and the pool is clean and was lovely and warm throughout our stay. The top bedroom
Is very cosy and quiet, while the bottom room is spacious and airy. It’s very clean and has been carefully and thoughtfully maintained. Best of all, it’s situated in a really friendly town square, yet because of the thick, old high walls, it feels quiet and secluded when you’re in the house and outside by the pool. We loved the local area and the community. There’s everything you need within walking distance and everyone is very helpful. Any little issues with the villa were dealt with promptly by our approachable hosts and we had a relaxing, comfortable holiday!

Enjoyable stay but some improvement points
We have enjoyed our stay in this nice region. The house is located at a nice church square. Check in process and overall communication with owners was excellent.
However, we were confronted with some surprises:
-the add mentions airco in the house, but this is only available in the living room (Rooms have a fan).
-The (non-renovated) children’s room is located at a separate part of the house, required to pass by a balcony (long distance from parents room), with a balcony of a separate house just below.
-WiFi is inexistent.
Preferably, the add should be amended to better reflect this reality (especially for parents with young children)
Overall cleanliness leaves to be desired.
Great restaurants in the immediate area + plenty of commerce stores for provisions

If you had looked at the description and the photos, there is also a video!! before reserving the house you would have seen that it tells you:
1. Air conditioning ONLY in the living room, where there is also a ceiling fan. Ceiling fan in the downstairs bedroom.
2. Upstairs bedroom is accessed through a short passage, the only room we have kept in its original form, as this part of the house dates back to the late 17th century, and we like it like this.
3. There is excellent WIFI, if there wasn't we could not have the alarm system, or receive notices that there are any sort of problems with the various electrical things. If you had an issue, why did you not tell us? Sometimes in the whole area, there are problems with the WIFI due to weather conditions, nothing to do with the actual house!
4. You also mention “ Overall cleanliness leaves to be desired. The house was spotless when you arrived, if you had an issue with something, why did you not inform us?
We spent six nights at Valentino's house and it was great. The livingroom, kitchen and main bedroom are very spacious with a very high ceiling, giving it a very free and open feel. The outdoor area is also spacious, especially given the house is right outside of the town's main square.
The house is well insulated because once in the house the sounds from the square are very distant.
The swinning pool is not massive but in accordance with the website photos and very refreshing on hot days.
Kitchen is well equipped and the bathroom has all we needed as well.
On one of the previous reviews there was a complaint about the distance of second bedroom. This was no issue for us as we used the main one for the four of us but one should not expect it to be used for small kids only.
The distance from the town to Barcelona was absolutely fine. We really enjoyed the combination of the more personal town vibe with the day trips to city madness.
Thanks Marnie and Jake

The stairs inside the house are mentioned in the listing!
There is a perfectly good, free parking area less than 5 minutes walk from the house,
Unfortunately, we cannot do anything about the neighbor's trees! The pool is perfectly clean, when the wind blows of course leaves may blow in!
