A very special place

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.

Magical, One-of-a-Kind Place

Review Submitted: April 7, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2010
I don't know if I am a poetic enough writer to do justice writing about this property. Not only is there beauty to the eye in the unique, historical building, in the gorgeous views, and in the sweet village, there is also beauty for the soul in all of these elements. An experience like this is my favorite way to travel: some days my family took day trips to local sites and played tourist; other days we hung around the village, being a part of everyday community life. For the owners of this property, Colleen and Tom, this endeavor is so much more than a business; it is a passion of the heart that is evident in every detail, large and small. They are completely accessible by email, phone, or in person to share their joy and knowledge of the region, the people, and each and every logistical question you can throw their way. I traveled here with my husband and 6-year-old son, and we all found something to enjoy, and we all wished we could stay much, much longer than we were able. I can't imagine not visiting here again.

I Can't Wait to Go Back!

Review Submitted: March 10, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2010
A friend and I were travelling throughout Europe this summer and our last week was booked at L'antica Vetreria in Piegaro. We fell in love with L'Antica and the lovely, quiet village. It was the perfect place to spend our last week relaxing and enjoying this beautiful area of Umbria and Tuscany. The owner, Colleen, gave us tours to nearby villages and places of interest that we would never have gone on our own. We also visited some of the more well known tourist towns but the charm was in the places not well known to the tourists. Her knowledge of the area, the culture, people and history made our stay very special. Our room was completely furnished so we shopped at the local stores and cooked several meals in but also favored the local eating establishments that had fantastic food. You must try the Pizza Colleen at Osteria Juni's...I'm sure I'll never have one as good until I can return there. We had a beautiful view from our room of the and valley below and the village square is just a few steps from the entrance. Colleen gave pasta making classes one day to guests which was great fun and the glass factory offered etching classes and we each brought home a treasured piece.. I can't wait to go back. It's not just a place to stay, but Colleen has endeared herself to the local people and because of that, they make you feel welcome and embrace you as part of the village. A great stay, don't miss it.

Your hospitality made our 40th anniversary trip a true gift! We loved the villa and vowed we would come back some day. We have sent many other friends to your web site and have told them of the beauty and warmth of the people and Piegaro.

Highly Recommend and Great Location!

Review Submitted: March 10, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2010
We stayed at L’antica Vetria for one week from May 15th to 22nd.Colleen the owner was an excellent host, full of information about the area and very helpful. The little town that they are located (Piegaro) in is very nice and the people there are very friendly, tho may not speak much English so bring along a phrase book! Within a 1 minute walk is the little café (open good hours) a bank with ATM, a butcher, grocery story, glass museum restaurant. Within a 3 minute walk is a little store that sells everything you may have forgotten (tutti por la casa) And the local bakery post office are maybe a 10 minute walk at best. There is another store in that direction too about 5 minute walk at most just past the main parking where the Wednesday market is. We stayed in the AWESOME 5 bedroom Villa. Let me tell you that the Villa is spacious. It has 5 bedrooms each with their own full bathroom, it has a full kitchen, livingroom and fireplace and huge table on the mainfloor, along with 2 bedrooms. On one side you go up stairs to see 2 more bedrooms. On the other side you go half way up the stairs to a bedroom in the tower (with its own fireplace), and then at the top of the stairs you have another living room with TV and fireplace. There is a pool outside and each unit has their area with chairs and BBQ. As the weather was cooler than usual Colleen was able to order us some wood for the fireplace and we had a fire in the upstairs part of the villa 4 nights in a row to warm up after busy days of sight seeing. This place would be perfect for 3 to 5 couples easily. Colleen gave us a tour of the whole facility and all the rooms look awesome and would be great to stay in. This is a wonderful place to stay and a great location for visiting Tuscany and Umbria, We will definitely return here someday soon I hope!
