Umberta is the real star of this property. She is so welcoming, helpful and friendly. It’s like staying in Grandma’s spare rooms. You’ll need to use translate if you don’t speak Italian. The villa is in an incredible location, with beautiful gardens to wander and the pool is down the road. The resident cats are friendly and there were heaps of birds and even wild deer. So peaceful. A walk to the castle is well worth it. The apartment itself is huge, spacious and traditionally furnished. Lots of art and objects around you that are beautiful. The bed in the main bedroom on the verandah side was super comfortable and slept so well. Be aware that many of the amenities listed were not in the apartment - microwave, television, washing machine. When we asked Umberta she kindly let us use the washing machine downstairs. There was also no kettle for tea. Theres a coffee moka pot for the stove but no coffee provided. You definitely need a car - there is nothing nearby for food or drink unless you drive. Overall, its a peaceful place hosted by a gorgeous nonna. A better equipped kitchen and more accurate listing would raise it to 5 stars in our opinion.

Umberta was very welcoming and pleasant! She gave us some homemade wine on arrival. She was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed staying in her large apartment! The heating system worked well, and we were very comfortable in the accommodation! She even gave us a tin of homemade biscotti, which was very nice and unexpected. Highly recommended!

Umberta was an excellent and generous host. The pool was wonderful and driving to sites was very easy.

We had a fabulous 10 day stay here. The apartment was superb with a balcony, table and sunshade where we ate breakfast and supper most days and gave lovely views of the Umbrian countryside. The communal pool just down the road was lovely to cool off after a hot day out. And Umberta was a most welcoming host providing home made biscotti, tomatoes and a delicious tart and always happy to give any help or advice. We felt like part of the family and did not want to leave. Highly recommended.
