Holiday rentals near Azienda Agricola Marisa Taffuri Pouchain

My family and I had a wonderful stay. Lovely holiday house, very clean and well equipped, great air conditioning, lots of space and pretty garden. Lots to do in the area, great day trips to Pompeii and Vesuvius and Casarta palace and water park - only wish we had time to stay longer.

It’s not often that I’m left lost for words; however I genuinely struggled for the first hour or so of being at the property due to being totally overwhelmed by how lovely it is! From the furniture and fittings, to the pool, to the little extras such as the welcome food and wine package and complimentary toiletries, the owners have thought about every detail and the property is stunning. Set in a very quiet location, the main noise you’ll hear is that of the crickets in the trees and grasses nearby… There are 2 good supermarkets within a 15 min drive, and it was less than an hour’s drive from Naples train station, to the airport and to Pompeii (all journeys that we did). The owners were responsive and incredibly helpful with communication and the welcome booklet had all the information we needed. Only change we would have made would be another sofa as when we needed a break from the incredible heat, there weren’t many comfy seats for us as a family; that being said, the covered patio area at the back was great for card games and reading out of the sun! The pool is a lovely size for a family of 3 or 4 and provided a great way to cool down - it was also a bonus in the evenings and we never felt worried about disturbing anyone due to the private setting. You’ll need bug spray/anti-mosquito cream for certain but even the itchy bites didn’t stop us from enjoying every moment of our stay in this superb villa. We hope to return again!

It was with great excitement that we arrived at the impressive iron gates at the entrance to Tenuta Torellone. Once through we continued along the lane with heavily laden vines to left and right and olive trees beyond. Turning the corner the house came into view - it was beautiful. The grounds are substantial with rolling lawns, lots of magnificent mature trees and pretty flower beds. We were welcomed by the owner, Sergio, a delightful man who is rightly proud of his property. He is always available, replying to any queries immediately. He made the planning and build up to the holiday so easy with his quick and friendly responses to many questions!! Inside the house is grand yet homely and beautifully maintained. With 5 bedrooms, each with en-suite it afforded us plenty of space. All with individual air conditioning and larger comfy beds!! The grounds include a lovely swimming pool, covered pagodas to escape the midday sun and a tennis court- oh and two hammocks!! The kids were completely obsessed with the pool and it’s a perfect location to spend a week. The house is a wonderful base for a relaxing week in the Italian sunshine. We can whole heartedly recommend a stay in this little bit of paradise. Grazie Sergio - You run this amazing house with love and attention and it shows!
