My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights at the Bellisimo and loved it, definitely want to go back! We opted for breakfast and it was delicious, the grounds are spacious, we got to bring our dog along, and our upstairs mini-home was very private. It's about 15 minutes from Fredericksburg with the majority of the local wineries between the B&B and the city, so it works out really nicely. We only wish we would have had more time to relax outside with some wine. Great vacation!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+.

My husband and I stayed here for a romantic weekend and it was exactly as described. Very clean and very cute. The bed was comfy and they made us feel at home. They have runs for dogs and even accomodate large breed dogs as I have. The patio is a wonderful area to relax and enjoy a glass (or two) of wine. We even added to their collection of corks on the table. Only minutes away from several wineries and some fabulous restaurants. We will definitely come back.Recommended for: Sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway.
Owner response: We love hearing how our guests enjoy our patio and just relax. We've had many wonderful conversations there and on a clear night, star gazing. Thanks for the review!

The Italian Place was a wonderful experience for us! From the beautiful Italian theme to the "chocolate mice" to the firepit under the stars.....Thanks Amber and Bill and blessings for a bright new year!Recommended for: Romantic getaway.
Owner response: It's amazing how many stars you can see when you are away from the city lights! We love conversations with our guests around the firepit. Oh, the stories we tell! There are many areas on our property for private conversation and we invite you to make The Italian Place your place for relaxing and renewal.

My wife and I traveled from Ft. Worth to Stonewall in October to visit the wineries and the food fest in Fredericksburg. The room was wonderful.

This is a wonderful, inviting haven from the hetic world. The design is very homey and comfortable. The hosts are very friendly and accomodating. We had a nice chat around the fire pit in the outside living area. We watched some great DVD movies on a large TV. It was very relaxing and we will return!Did you find this review helpful?

The Italian Place is one of the nicest stays we've had. It was cozy and everything was clean. If you want a quiet stay with nice patios and outdoor areas, along with a comfortable atmosphere all around, check out the Italian Place.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0
