Escapar para Elegance: Modern Villa italiano

L'endroit est magnifique, la vue imprenable, le gîte propre et spacieux. La propriétaire très gentille et discrète. Il manque néanmoins quelques détails pour que cela soit parfait. Il n'y a qu'une seule chaise longue au bord de la piscine, les 6 autres sont de grosses chaises sur lesquelles on ne sait pas s'allonger c'est vraiment dommage. De plus, nous nous sommes retrouvés plusieurs fois avec une autre famille qui louait le second gîte, nous étions au total 9... il n'y avait pas assez de chaises pour tout le monde. Nous étions 5 et sur notre terrasse, il n'y avait que 4 chaises pour manger et deux toutes petites tables rondes, impossible de déposer des plats une fois les assiettes à table. Cela manque une peu de vaisselle également: pas de grand plat allant au four, pas assez de petites assiettes (que 4), pas de louche et un très petit frigo. Pas d'aspirateur. Il est également mis animaux non admis mais les deux familles qui ont loué dans le deuxième gîte à côté avaient chaque fois un chien. La piscine est sous surveillance d'une caméra, ce qui ne met pas très à l'aise. Ce sont des détails mais qui pourraient faire la différence et rendre cet endroit paradisiaque.

Das Haus ist traumhaft, wir konnten uns gut erholen und haben es sehr genossen. Es liegt in einer schönen Landschaft mit tolle Aussicht. Die Region bietet viele schöne Orte und Städte, welche man besuchen kann.

We loved our stay here and will definitely be back. It was a little piece of heaven. Comfortable villa, stunning views and sunsets, cooling breezes and a wonderful swimming pool to relax beside. Tanya was amazing, so warm, welcoming, wonderful with our children and so incredibly generous. An amazing find for us. Location was perfect, so much to hand, beautiful villages, Rome, Florence, Perugia, Assisi all within a comfortable distance. Decent sized shops and bakeries not too far away. Our boys were so sad to leave, as were we. Definitely recommend this property.

The winding roads to Fratticola Selavatica was the start of a wonderful exciting adventure . For us being from Holland, it was a worth while treat! With the help of Anna, we found ourselves taken to a steep downward road, that led to the most breathtaking views. The converted farmhouse is beautifully restored. Tanya and Xavior very gracious hosts!

We were a group of 8, five adults and 3 teenagers . We had two suites. From the moment we came, we were enamored with the serenity and beauty of our surroundings and view. The lovely salt water infinity pool was a soothing and refreshing welcome from the hot climate. We spent much our time at the pool.

Tanya and Xavior had a vision when they restored and created this place. Of course one could nick pick a couple of the minor details that comes when renting a holiday home, however they are new to the game and with every guest they will be very seasoned with what family's with kids or teenagers needs are.

We were fortunate enough to be there for their annual barbecue for the amazing people who helped them create their home. Thank you for including us! We all had such a wonderful time.

Definatly a car is needed! The location is perfect point to explore Umbria. Cannot tell you how interesting and charming the landscape and surrounding city's are. Tanya suggested one of their favorite places to eat that is not to far from the house. It is called L' Osteria Del Bosco. What a treat!! One of the best meals we had during our two week stay. Highly recommend ! Another spot was in Spoleto, it is called Casina Dell Ippocasiano / cafe bistro. It offered one of the best menus for our vegetarian companion . Tanya and Xavior, much thanks, our hellos to Alex and Chris. We will definatly pass the word about your beautiful serene place. Susanne and I would like to extend an invitation to both. If your ever out, our way! From the whole gang/ Hauge and SF,

Thanks again, incredible two weeks!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our month at this villa. The views were exceptional especially around the pool at sunset with a glass of wine. The villa, although looking old, is actually brand new with all the amenities for a comfortable stay. The owners made good suggestions of places to visit, none of which were very far away. We really enjoyed visiting all the small hill towns of Umbria which have only begun to be discovered by tourists and the roadside views were spectacular. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and hope to return one day.
