A very special place

mirivan Norway
Review Submitted: March 24, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
A beautifully restored villa with a very special history as an ancient glass factory. It is situated in a quaint village which makes you feel a part of the culture. The accomodations give a sense of the old atmosphere and yet with all modern conveniences. The property is very well maintained and the service is delightful and always helpful.
With a car, one can visit all the attractions both in Umbria and in Tuscany. Staying one week was not enough and we look forward to coming back another time.
Owner's Response: We are so very happy that your stay in September in L'Antica Vetreria Villa and our beautiful village met your every expectation! We and our Italian hosts strive to provide wonderful service and help to our guests. And we welcome you back to stay anytime you want to experience "la dolce vita" and the true beauty of Italian life in a village. We certainly agree that one week is not enough time to explore all the sights of Umbria and Tuscany available within a short distance! So come back soon.

A piece of Italian heaven

trish0220 Seattle, WA, USA
Review Submitted: March 26, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
My family and I stayed in the Villa unit... amazing! Gorgeous, spacious, historic... all in the quaint town of Piegaro (lovely people and restuarants). We also loved the pool... what a lovely addition. We used it daily. One night, 3 generations of Italian women came into our Villa kitchen and gave us an authentic italian cooking lesson! So fun... and delicious!

Perfect Place to Stay!

Atlantamom Atlanta
Review Submitted: March 24, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
I want to go back!!! If that does not sum up a perfect stay, I don't know what can! L'Antica Vetreria is perfect - it offers the "old world" of a historical glass factory with the old stone fireplaces and walls in this beautiful apartment villa in a wonderful small village, with "new world" conveniences of a full granite kitchen, modern bathroom with hairdryers that really dry, and comfortable beds with wonderful linens. Colleen and Tom make every effort to make your stay comfortable and memorable. The village of Piegaro offers several restaurants, a butcher, a market - whatever you need within seconds of your door which makes it wonderful for you to be able to walk to dinner and gelato. It is also conveniently located near Chiusi (10-15 minute drive), where you can catch the train if you don't want to drive into other major cities. Piegaro is in a very convenient location to visit the many villages of Tuscany and Umbria.
My daughters and I had the trip of a lifetime! We felt completely at home and found we could ask for help about anything, which is such a special thing to find when traveling.
The kitchen is fully equipped, which we enjoyed using when we came in from a long day touring the countryside. The rooms to the apartment are quite large and spacious, and the pool and terrace are a wonderful place to unwind after a long day of travel.
Be sure to visit the original glass factory, and ask for a tour of the new one. Watching the process of making all the many bottles is amazing! Don't miss learning how to make Pici Pasta!! A hightlight of our trip was our pasta party with Tom and Colleen. We have even brought that tradition home and shared it with our friends and family. It is a place for a honeymoon, a family reunion, a special celebration - or just a place to get away from everything. It offers the comforts of home in a place that is more beautiful than you can imagine. I hope you can travel there and share all the wonderful experiences we had.
