A note from Jo
This is a great apartment, perfect for 3 adults or for a family with 1 or 2 children. It's the perfect mix of old and new, giving guests the best that the 21st century offers with the character of an older property. The owner of this apartment - Oscar - is absolutely superb at ensuring guests have a fantastic holiday in Umbria. From the moment you arrive to the moment you depart, you will experience the thought and care that Oscar has put into his property.

Joanne made our booking experience so easy and her company delivered. We asked for her advice and made our decision based on her feedback . The apartment was as described, a good layout and nice fittings with lovely touches such as the slippers and toiletries – almost perfect but just missing in a few basic kitchen items. It didn’t matter too much – serious cooking wasn’t an issue as food in local restaurants locally was good and generally inexpensive. The pool was lovely and Oscar the owner did everything he could in setting up our trip and special requests before we arrived. Full cleaning mid week was an unexpected bonus although charges for use of laundry and pool towels were not – maybe my fault for not reading all the details. To Oscar’s credit also on a national holiday when other guests arrived from the UK with no food or drink he and his ladies achieved a miraculous shopping trip to an otherwise closed supermarket – can’t imagine this happening anywhere else ever! Thank you Joanne and Oscar we had a great holiday and certainly would come back again.
