Lovely villa with spectacular views.

The villa was comfy and well kitted out and the setting was amazing. The villa is beginning to show its age. The photos on Vrbo need updating as there is no pool and the garden needs some TLC. Kate was helpful in answering any questions.

Super schöner Urlaub in tollem Haus

Wir waren super zufrieden in dem Haus von Kate. Das Haus ist richtig schön eingerichtet, war sehr sehr sauber und hat alles, was man braucht. Wir hatten ein kleines Heizung-„Problem“ und Kate hat sich sofort gemeldet und sich direkt gekümmert. Wir sind super happy mit allem und würden immer wieder kommen. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit!

Absolutely LOVED Poggio Catino and the house

I travelled with my partner and our dog for my sabbatical leave and we enjoyed our stay beyond expectation. The house has a wonderful vibec and is also very practical- it shows, that it was not built only to rent it, but has a real soul and human touch. We enjoyed the breathtaking views from the balcony and terrace, and also the days we stayed in and just relaxed. Our stay took place in October and November, some nights were a bit colder, but most of the days are nice and sunny. I definitely recommend to stay in this beautiful house. Kate, altough we have not met in person, was always very helpful and answered everything promtly. I ppretiated also the tips for trips and restaurants we recieved prior to our stay. The village of Poggio Catino is also very charming and people extremely welcoming.

Magnifique !

Tout était parfait lors de notre séjour. La maison est magnifique avec tout le confort nécessaire pour 6 personnes (et plus). Décorée avec bon goût, nous nous y sommes tout de suite sentis bien. De nombreux livres et jeux ont occupé les enfants lorsqu'ils n'étaient pas dans la piscine. La vue est superbe. Nous avons profité de magnifiques couchers de soleil... Les différentes terrasses permettent de toujours être à l'ombre ou au soleil en fonction des envies du moment et nous n'avons pas souffert de la chaleur. La maison se situe à 90 km (environ) de Rome. Nous nous y sommes rendus en train et nous avons pu visiter la ville de manière détendue... Nous avons également visité Orvieto et fait quelques randonnées dans le coin. La région, quoique très sèche en cette période, est très belle... Par ailleurs, Kate a toujours été disponible pour répondre à toutes nos questions dans un délai très court.

stylish villa with stellar views!

We really enjoyed our time in the peaceful countryside of Italy, and having this house as a home base was just perfect. It is very private with a locking gate and no neighbors in view. The home itself is very stylishly appointed with many interesting books and art pieces. The views from the sitting room and patio are stunning!!! We enjoyed several sunsets and watched an amazing thunderstorm roll through one evening as well. The homeowner Kate responded very promptly when we had questions while there. She also checked in to make sure we were doing well, and to see if we needed any suggestions on things to do. Prior to our arrival she had sent some links to her favorite things in the area and we did several of them. We recommend Bomarzo Gardens, and exploring Poggio Catino itself as well as the Hermitage up the mountain. This property is in the country. You will be driving up a lot of winding roads to get there. For us this is perfect as we love to wander. The town of Poggio Catino is mostly Italian speaking. Again, to us this added to the adventure, but communication was sometimes a challenge involving pantomiming, lol. Everyone we encountered in small towns was very kind even with our poor Italian, and always did the best they could to communicate with us and understand what we needed. When visiting larger towns or cities ( Rome, Orvieto, and Ostia Antica), english was more widely spoken. I would highly recommend this home for those looking to experience the "real" Italian countryside. ~ Rene & Mike

Homely property in a stunning location

The villa is in a stunning location in the hills, where you can experience true rural Italy. The route up to it is windy, with great views and there is plenty of space for parking at the property. It is a 20-30 minute (pleasant) drive to the local railway station. We found the villa to be a very comfortable place to stay with all the facilities we needed. It feels quite spacious with high ceilings helping to enhance this. It is clear that the owners use the villa as well and there are a number of personal items around - we loved this aspect as it made the place seem immediately welcoming. The villa does not have air conditioning, but even in the height of summer we did not find this a problem as the windows all have insect screens, so we could leave the windows open and get a nice through-breeze (and of course it is cooler in the hills). The one thing we did notice was that the area is incredibly peaceful, but sound travels a long way in the hills so some nights we were disturbed by the sounds of barking dogs during the night - take ear-plugs if you are a light sleeper! The owners had put a temporary raised swimming pool in the front garden that was quite welcoming when coming home from a hot day in Rome! We made full use of the barbecue, cooker, washing machine etc and everything worked well (the barbecue in the thunderstorm being particularly memorable!). The owners were very helpful and sent us lots of information about the area beforehand. They also replied quickly to our communications (via e-mail) before, during and after the holiday (e.g. when we found the satellite TV did not work). Overall we would recommend this property and would consider returning to it in the future.
