A Great Place to have a Great Time
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009
Date of Stay: April 2009
Our group of seven friends and family, aged from 28 to 66, fully enjoyed our one week stay here in late April of 2009. The house and grounds were fully as nice as advertised, as a matter of fact, they exceeded our expectations. The surrounding vinyards, orchards, and fields were fragrant and colorful with spring blossoms. We were really delighted with the location.
The owners are very nice people and were extremely helpful to us before and during our stay. Their suggestions for local restaurants and activities were just great.
We spent one week in Tuscany and then one week here in northern Lazio, and although our villa in Tuscany was terrific, with all the most modern conveniences, we wound up liking this villa and this area better. The villa seemed more authentic, and more relaxed, and the people in the nearby towns are more friendly than in the tourist-laden area to the north.
We took the train into Rome one day, and had no problems for a great day of sightseeing. The villa is well located for visiting hill towns in southern Tuscany and Umbria and we drove to quite a few of them. Certainly our favorite activity was visiting the farmers' markets in the nearby towns. The local produce, cheeses, and meats were just great, and we had fun making pizzas in the wood-fired oven at the villa. We hope to visit Villa LeTerrae again some day, and we certainly recommend it for anyone who would enjoy a taste of authentic Italian living in a villa that is delightfully out of the ordinary.
