A note from Jo
The owners have gone out of their way to ensure that every guests stay is as luxurious and enjoyable as possible. at this villa in Orvieto. Villa Piera genuinely does provide the best of both worlds - all the privacy and comfort of a self catering villa in Orvieto but with all the luxuries of a hotel stay. For example, there is a daily complimentary breakfast service along with a daily turn down service too should you want it. And all guests will be treated to a free bottle of wine on arrival too. Not only that but guests will also receive a complimentary copy of 'Piera', a novel written by the mother of the owner. The book is fascinating and describes her survival and love story during World War II in both Italy and Greece. Should guests wish, the owners would also be delighted to organise an accompanied walking tour either along all or part of the 5 kilometre long Anello della Rupe path, or within Orvieto itself. For those staying for a week or more, you will also be welcome to enjoy a complimentary dinner at this villa in Orvieto too.
