Hello! My name is Corinna and I am the owner of this charming farmhouse together with other two holiday accomodations in Umbria. Renting holiday accommodations is my family business and I am also the producer of an award-winning extra virgin olive oil! - that's me in the picture during the olive harvest! :)
I love to cook, to read and to share my knowledge about Umbria with my guests.
Hope to see you soon.

Unica parola , meraviglioso. Posto stupendo in mezzo agli ulivi, nel mezzo del più alto concentrato di cultura e storia d'italia, una casa dove ritrovare la pace interiore concedendosi anche una sinfonia gastronomica senza pari. Da non perdere l'ottimo olio di produzione propria dei titolari. Giandomenico Mancinelli Francesca Fiorindo

It is true what I had read online. The villa stay was even better than I had imagined it would be. Corinna, our hostess, was so helpful and spoke perfect English. She gave us advice on touring and added such a personal touch. The Mimosa was large enough to give each of four couples ample privacy.The view and the accommodations are even lovelier than can be captured by the website photos, and the pool is wonderful. We found Villa Rosy to be the perfect location from which to explore Assisi and surrounding hill towns. My friends even went to Florence for a day by train. As someone as already said, one hates to leave the villa to do any touring, it is that wonderful. A highlight of the stay was a five-course meal catered by UmbriaCooks4U. We stayed with two other couples and all we can talk about now that we are home is when we are going back. Best vacation ever!

From the instant of arrival at the Rome airport we felt the care of the Tontis for our comfort. They are wonderful hosts taking pleasure in their care. Villa Rosy, situated in the middle of a large olive grove, is a vacationer's delight. It is comfortable, clean, and 12 people, like our clan of three generations, can easily find privacy or get-together places in the spacious rooms and huge dining room. The suggested attractions like the visit to Luciana's handweaving atelier and the Lunch with Umbriacooks4u added unexpectedly to the enjoyment of the unusual week we spent at Villa Rosy. Last but not least is the location: At the crossroads of Umbria, Toscana and Marche, the lands of Piero della Francesca. Wonderful!

We zijn de tweede week van juli in Magnolia geweest. Het was perfect. Groter als gedacht, on-italiaans verzorgd (dus alles werkte perfect) en een zeer goede gastheren. Zeker iets om weer naar terug te gaan. De foto's op de website spreken voor zich, in werkelijkheid is het mooier!

We had a great vacation at Villa Rosy. The house is spacious and comfortable, secluded and private. The view over the valley is fantastic, the pool is delightful and we enjoyed taking all our meals on the lovely patio under the pergola - always comfortable even on the hottest days. There is no shortage of things to do in the area and the Tontis are friendly and admirable hosts; they come by nearly every day to look after the place but they don't get in the way.

How fun it is to arrive at a property you have selected based on photos, and have it much nicer than you had expected. The only downside to our visit (besides taking a few wrong turns) was the rain and we can't imagine why Corinna was unable to do anything about this. We didn't have an opportunity to use the pool, but the views more than made up for it. What a comfortable location to use as a base after making trips to Assisi, etc. We even used the well appointed kitchen to serve up some wonderful meals, but they could not top the great,affordable food we had in the area. All in all, a very positive experience for our family!! We'll work hard to afford the trip back sometime.

I wanted to second the comments posted by my mother. Villa Rosy is beautiful- the perfect location for a family vacation! The villa is beautiful, clean and well-appointed. The view is spectacular and you hear the church bells every morning. You are accessable to major roads but still in a private, secluded location. We hope to return someday!
