Week with small children
Great stay in Villa Carlotta with three small children. Alberto was always very quick to reply, however the actual communication in Viarigi is with a lady called Laura who was lovely but spoke no English. She brought someone else with her who could speak a bit of English but it did make the check in a bit less clear. The property isn’t so easy to find (google maps didn’t recognize the road) so we met in the town of Viarigi and followed them to the property. We had problems with the WiFi then getting hold of someone to help was a bit difficult although not a major issue. We had small 3 children with us (aged 10 weeks, 18 months and 2.5 years) and it worked out very well with them. The gardens to the property are huge, however there are steep drops and no fence around the pool. This actually turned out to not be a problem for us but worth knowing! The jacuzzi was a bit hit and the pool was warm the whole time (August) so we could swim every day, also with the kids. Inside the house was clean and very well equipped, especially the kitchen. Cots and high chairs were provided for the children and fresh veg was available from the garden. The bedrooms are all large, beds are comfy and the air con was much appreciated in August! Definitely recommend going to the restaurant in Viarigi to eat - great traditional food. There is also a supermarket within a 10 mins drive which is open 7 days a week.
Overall we had a fantastic stay and would definitely go back!
