For my wife & I, this has been a special place. The small house is wonderful, the countryside marvellous. There are restaurants nearby even though it is out in the country. We simply cannot say enough good things about our host, Maria. She is a kind and caring lady. For us she has helped us immensely through some personal difficulty. As well, she has some alpacas that unfortunately she will be selling ( they are a lot of work). These lovely animals have been entertainment for us.Maria is wonderful. We would definitely come back. Highly recommend this place.

Out of the way place near Alvito

We enjoyed spending a week here. The place was charming and definitely tucked away down a quiet street surrounded by mountains. Our host Maria was easy to contact. We only met her once as she was mostly out of town when we were there but she was gracious enough to let us see the 4 alpacas up close and feed them. The apartment is 2 stories with the bedroom and bathroom upstairs. Comfortable enough. Downstairs had the kitchen area and a couch tucked under the stairs. Everything was fine for our stay. Only recommendations/comments for future guests to know is: 1. The stairs creak quite loudly when walking on them. This would really only be an issue if someone was sleeping and another was using the stairs. Maybe some corkboard or something would help dampen the noise. 2. There is a street light just outside the entrance area that stays on all night. Id recommend to guests to bring an eyemask if a light sleeper. There is a curtain but its light material. We used a blanket to help cover up the window bit maybe a black out cirtain would be better for this. 3. Unfortunately we had a bunch of rain during our stay and therefore kept windows closed which made the inside a bit stuffy. Only the kitchen window had a screen to keep bugs away. Additional screens for the other windows of possible would be a great addition. The place is quiet which is great but you will need a car to get to anyplace. Alvito is the closest town about a 5 min drive away. Many great small villages in the area.

Marias house is in the most beautiful place you will need a car to travel around the local area but thats what i loved about it a tranquil relaxing atmosphere. Marias house has everything you would ever need and even left me a bottle of water and croissants for breakfast ❤️. The place is so clean and tidy. I travelled to Sorano Picinisco and Cassino Monastery in the 3 days i was there. If you have a dog or cat i know they would be more than welcome too. There is also a large parking space to the rear of the property. I will definitely be back next year to stay for a longer time thank you Maria for your hospitality x

Beautiful location!

The location is beautiful and peaceful with the mountains all around. A short drive (or electric bike ride!) will bring you to many tiny towns up in the mountains. Also very close to the Abruzzo national park. We loved it here!!!

Wonderful location in nature, yet accessible to many places, spotless, welcoming hosts

After hours of research, i settled on this place due to it’s beauty and proximity to nature as well as accessibility to easily travel to the eastern Italian coast. The host greeted me with a hot comforting fire in the stove. The place is extremely well set up and the gift package of goodies came in handy. Although this place offered all i was looking for in terms of being so close to Parco Nazionale d’Abruzzo, i was amazed by the nearby grocery store that was stocked better than any I’ve seen in the US. Best of both worlds here. Enclosed in the peace and quiet of nature as well as the most comfortable of beds, sleep was the best i had during my three week stay in Italy! Maria gave me the unforgettable time in her garden to feed the alpacas. I will always remember the generosity and kindness of Maira and her father the night I was stranded in the park. The car rental agency had not responded to my over three hours calling for road side assistance, yet Maria and her father made immediate offers to help…. And they did’!! Not only did they come out to help, they drove me back to their place, fed me….. and of MOST value to me, was that they shared a small piece of their fascinating family history. To be sure, they were always there if I needed anything, yet were never intrusive. I hope to return this year, and will plan more time there.

Piacevole soggiorno

Siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti della struttura in generale e ci ha fatto molto piacere trovarla ben pulita e accogliente. La signora Maria e la sua famiglia si sono dimostrati molto disponibili e gentili e hanno saputo rispettare la nostra privacy comportandosi con discrezione ed educazione. Consiglio vivamente a chiunque cerchi un posto dove rigenerarsi e dal quale si possono raggiungere dei bei posti a contatto con la natura.

Splendida casa in pietra e calorosa accoglienza

L'abitazione in pietra locale é stata recentemente ristrutturata con grande amore dai proprietari che accolgono gli ospiti con uguale cura e attenzione. Un posto prrfetto per una fuga dalla città alla ricerca di calma e bei paesaggi . Il vicino borgo antico di San Donato Val Comino ospita bar e locali frequentati sino a tarda notte.. Dalla casa si può anche partire per piacevoli passeggiate in bici in mezzo ad una campagna perfettamente mantenuta. Maria ed il marito colmano di intelligenti e discrete attenzioni l'ospite.

Siamo appena tornati da una piacevolissima vacanza di due settimane al "Piccolo rifugio Alvitano": la casa si trova in campagna, in un posto tranquillo ed è completamente accessoriata, ordinata e pulita; è comoda per poter visitare molti borghi della Ciociaria. La casa è adatta per proprietari di cani, con un giardino recintato. Un grazie a Maria e alla sua splendida famiglia per l'ottima ospitalità.

Beautiful apartment, lovely quiet setting, kind and friendly host

We stayed for 3 nights at Maria’s apartment and it was lovely! We used the kitchen which was very welll stocked, and we slept very soundly here because it was so quiet and on a road withou much traffic. We had a car and were visiting family in San Danato Valdicamino so it really was the perfect location. Very short drive to S.D. Valdicamino, easy drive to Alvito, about 30mins to Cassino, and 3 hrs to Leonardo Davinci airport. Sparkling clean. I think if visiting in the winter the apartment might be a bit cold. We had a great stay and hope to be back!
