Better than the brochure

Lynd Penarth UK
Review Submitted: October 24, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We visited in June and fell in love with the views and scenery in this lovely setting. The apartment has every luxury and is better then described in the brochure.
Really enjoyed visiting the surrounding villages, morning coffees in local piazzas and evening meals under warm moonlit skies.

Will definitely visit again next year. Thank you for a wonderful holiday in a fantastic apartment at your outstanding refurbished farmhouse.
Owner's Response: Hi Lynd,
We remember June - warm and sunny, clean mountain air, fresh local 'real' food - in fact all the things you can expect from an Italian holiday at Casa Bella Vista.

Thank you for your kind comments about the farmhouse, the views and the scenery. We are so pleased you enjoyed your holiday and will be booking again next year.

You are most welcome guests and we look forward to your return.
Kind regards, Alan and Carole.

A memorable holiday !

B & N Cardiff
Review Submitted: October 22, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Truly a wonderful place for a holiday. The accomodation is superb, with a sense of luxury throughout. Shops and restaurants are close at hand and there are many places of interest within easy travelling distance. The best part of the holiday - sitting on the balcony with a glass of red wine, enjoying the magnificent scenery and watching the sunset - followed by another glass of wine !
Owner's Response: Hello B & N.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your holiday, the area and the views.
The extension and balcony were sympathetically designed and built, especially to take advantage of the awesome views and outstanding scenery. So we are particularly pleased that you enjoyed the balcony, the views and the apartment so much and had such a great holiday.

Casa Bella Vista views have been there for 400 years and will certainly be there on your return which we hope will be soon. Thank you for visiting.
Regards - Alan & Carole.

Immoglie - a little piece of Paradise!

A, J & R Swansea
Review Submitted: August 6, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Had a wonderful & memorable time int the casa that had been in my Arcari family for generations but which has now been sympathetically yet practically restored for modern living by Alan & Carole. Area is incomparable, views and sunsets the like of which you'll never see anywhere else. The rugged beauty of this place is breathtaking. Skiing/hill walking not too far away for those who want an active holiday, but equally, with transport, many beautiful old towns, hamlets & villages within easy reach. Will definitely return in the future.
Owner's Response: Hello A J & R. After nearly 4 centuries in your family ownership, we are delighted to have re-united you with your ancestors' home you thought lost through age and war - welcome Home. We are so pleased that you approve of our careful restoration and wish to return soon.
'Incomparable' and 'breathtaking' - it surely is.
Kind regards, Alan and Carole.

Casa Belle Vista

J - Wales Pembrokeshire, South Wales
Review Submitted: August 3, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2008
What a wonderful area of Italy your property is located in. The views were fantastic and it provided me with a great base from which to explore the 'real' Italy. The accommodation was first class and the attention to detail was second to none. The location suited me perfectly as it was tranquil, but not isolated, and the locals were so friendly and helpful. I certainly shall return
Owner's Response: Hi J. from Wales, Thank you so much for your generous comments. We try to make the apartment just so; we try to make your stay restful; we try to make the sun shine! but the people, the food and the area have always been this way - it's just the 'real Italy' - so glad we could share it all with you. We look forward to your return soon. Regards Alan and Carole.

Italy Atina

cjlana U.K.
Review Submitted: July 24, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Having recently spent a few days at the extremely well named "Casa Bella Vista" I have to say it is a really peaceful area to sit and read, walk in the surrounding hills,and eat in the numerous restaurants in the local towns and villages at a realistic price.

Monte Cassino is a must in my view just half an hour away,the nearest beach forty minutes - well worth the variation in scenery. In reality an area to roam and discover, meeting the local population when drinking your morning coffee being an experience in itself.

In winter the hills are covered in snow , there is a Ski-centre in the hills above the Casa catering for the novice to experienced winter sport enthusiast

The area is equi distant from Rome and Naples one hour forty-five minutes served by both fast railink and motorway

The Casa itself has everything one would require for a very pleasant stay in tastfully appointed warm cosy surroundings, i highly recommend
We had a lovely stay

Spent two wonderful New Years at Casabella Vista.The evenings spent around a log fire and days walking and enjoying the amazing view from the villa.The accomodation and facilities in the house are first class and the owner provides all the information and help you could possibly need.The house is serviced and in immaculate condition.

The Local people in the village are friendly and restaurants and local bars and coffee shops are excellent.
Will definitely return and hope it will be very soon.
