Wonderful Country Home near Todi
Review Submitted: 04 June 2011
Date of Stay: May 2011
We recently spent the week of May 7-14, 2011 in this beautiful stone country house near Todi. We loved the house, the gardens and the location, which was perfect for exploring the towns of Umbria such as Orvieto, Spoleto, Perugia, Assissi,etc. The house is very large and is extremely well furnished, in fact, it is furnished beautifully, with antique furniture and art work. As there were only two of us, we were very comfortable, but this house could easily accomodate large families, maybe even 10-12 people. There were several bedrooms we never even went into! The house is on three levels- it is very large. Also, the hospitality of the owners, Greta and Alberto, made our visit all the better. They have compiled folders containing recommendations of things to do and see in the area. Even in one week we could barely scratch the surface, but we did have a marvelous experience eating Sunday lunch at Titignano, which is a castle perched high on a hilltop overlooking a beautiful lake. The lunch started at 1:30pm and went until 5:00pm. we were served endless platters of wonderful Italian home cooked dishes- we believe it was about a 20 course meal in total!! It was fantastic- not only the meal, but the setting as well.We never would have known about this if not for the recommendation of Greta. So all in all, we had a fantastic week, and I would highly recommend this lovely home to anyone who would love the experience of living in a country village and exploring Umbria.
