Ski:
Guest book 2007 I would like to thank you in the name of all the members of our group for the excellent accomodation in the Villa Habsburg. It was a real joy to stay there- (Stiftung Preussische Schlösser und Gärten, Berlin, Oct 2007). The villa was a great find and we loved our time there (Richards Wimbledon Sept 2007). We have had a lovely time and absolutely loved the house and garden. We feel very lucky to have been able to stay there (Guest House 1 Field Reid London August 2007). We had a wonderful time. The acccomoodation was really superb with fantastic views. It was a pleasure to sit on the terrace watching the sun go down whilst enjoying a bottle of wine...bliss..(Piano nobile, Bruce ,Angus June 2007 ). We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Rome. The apartment was ideal and both the housekeeper and the driver were very helpful (Guest House 2, Main Middlesex July 2007). What a beautiful house, we will be recommending it to our friends.(Rankine Portugal Nov 2007).
