Awesome view

House with a lot of character and history. Views of the mountains and lake were very peaceful. Remote location for quiet time. Kitchen was rustic but functional. Fireplace was a nice feature. Access road is scheduled for update.

Incredible hospitality at this amazingly beautiful hillside villa!

Barbara was the best host we’ve ever had through VBRO. The pictures of the accommodations were 100% accurate. Property was gorgeous and immaculately kept. She was in frequent communication and had answers for every question we asked. We will be returning to stay again guaranteed. She was outstanding.

Great Countryside Getaway

We had a wonderful Christmas time in the tranquil Italian Countryside. Coming from the buzzing city, this place was exactly what we were looking for. Calm, cozy and big enough to host the family for a short week away.The house offers enough space for up to 8 adults, which each couple having their own bathroom. Everything is exceptionally clean and the house is WELL equipped for cooking, and surviving in general.The owner keeps you in close coordination over the days to ensure your satisfaction. We were very happy with our stay there and would recommend it 100%.

This property is set a top a mountain with beautiful views. It’s a very old home fully refurbished that offers a glimpse at the past. Barbara is a pleasure to work with and helpful beyond words. I look forward to a future visit during warmer weather to enjoy the beautiful pool and do some hiking.

Beautiful Villa with view

Great place to stay, but for us, we were out exploring surrounding area most of the day. The villa is up a rough road, so you won’t want to go up/down too much. Pool is not used after summer.

The property was wonderful with so many eating areas and facilities. Every detail has been thought of. The host, Barbara, was extremely helpful. Make sure you have a high car or SUV as road up is steep and rocky.

Great property and host, convenient base for Tuscany/Umbria

Lovely property with ancient stone walls but all modern conveniences. Great outdoor spaces as well and great pool. Beautiful views over Lake Trasimeno. Outstanding communication from Barbara, the host, who also had great suggestions about the region. She arranged two dinners for us at the villa which were excellent. Curated local wine at villa was great, esp the Stucchio. Convenient base to explore many of the small towns of Tuscany and Umbria -we highly recommend Pienza and Gubbio especially, and the castle at Castiglione del Lago is also great (eat at L'Aquario). Highly recommend the propery and the host!

Perfect family holiday

We had a fantastic time at Barbara's villa. It's well set up and nice and cool for the July heat (good AC in bedrooms) and fans/sufficient cool walls downstairs. The views were beautiful from the house, we loved having breakfast outside and thoroughly enjoyed our afternoons in the huge pool. The kids loved the table tennis table and trampoline and we all enjoyed a good BBQ. Barbara could not have been more helpful and responsive with our queries. The road up to the house is quite steep and bumpy so be prepared for that but it didn't put us off exploring each day. We'd love to come back some time. Thank you Barbara! each morning and
