"We did not know Italy at all before this stay, and wanted somewhere not too busy with tourists - this villa turned out to be perfect! The villa itself was great - big, well appointed, and cool in the day. There was so much space outside, plus the beautiful pool. There is a footpath that goes to a small stream and then the village, and it was great to be able to walk to the bar / bakery / restaurant. Recommend Il Pozzo! We were a bit surprised when a few dogs found their way into the garden but then realised the footpath runs behind the large hedge (you can’t see people, but do hear them and see their dogs sometimes) Not a problem but given the otherwise remoteness of the villa, it can give you a start to suddenly hear voices! We found it easy to get out and about - we did Cinque Terre one day (not to be missed!) and also very much enjoyed Castiglione, the village just up the hill. Access into the villa’s driveway is a bit tight but we soon got used to it, and worth it for the peacefulness of the villa at the end of the track. Loriana was there to welcome us on arrival and was easily contacted if we needed anything (we didn’t but good to know). We would love to come again to this area, and would not hesitate to book this villa again."

"We had the best time, beautiful house, pool, grounds. Can’t wait to come back!"

"We absolutely loved our stay in Elisabetta's beautifully restored farmhouse. There was everything we needed there , even for committed cooks. The house is very authentic and copes with the local weather perfectly even without aircon. The views were magnificent, the beds comfortable and Elisabetta could not have been more welcoming and helpful.The village of Castiglione is a short walk and offers a restaurant, a pizzeria a great bar and a couple of shops. A very charming spot.The surrounding areas are worth exploring and there is plenty of walking too.All in all a perfect holiday.Thank you Elisabetta xx"
