Vacation rentals near Borgo San Pietro

The apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The terrace had a spectacular view and was perfect for breakfast or for a glass of wine in the evening. We loved the little town with its steep cobbled streets. We enjoyed walking to the trattoria on the square for morning coffee, and we were able to get basic supplies, including bread and milk, at the little shop there. Our host responded immediately to questions and was very helpful.

A beautiful place to stay with magnificent views and fabulous owners. The house is perfect to enjoy a quiet holiday and Paolo responds quickly to ensure an enjoyable stay. Local restaurants have wonderfully tasty local cuisine.

La Meridiana in Oliveto is a peaceful, beautiful haven. The house is distinctive and contains everything that it is possible to need for a wonderful holiday. Split into three parts it is gives many possibilities and as a party of six we used the three large, comfortable bedrooms in the house plus the bedroom in the annex which is close enough to feel part of the main group but also a place where one could have some time away from the family. We played table tennis by the annex which was a lot of fun. The kitchen is well equipped although not very large. We like cooking and enjoyed the fact that there were plenty of pans and fridge space. It was a delight to have help with the cleaning for 4 hours a day and consequently we spent a lot of time in the very large and clean infinity pool. As it was particularly hot we did not venture far into the local area. The main town is Rieti which contains the usual shops and little boutique areas, it is not especially attractive but there is an exceptional gelato shop! Playing tennis in 38C sun is not to be recommended but we had a go and even though the tennis court is not pristine it was a lovely bonus. Having visited Tuscany and Umbria many times we thought that the scenery was very similar and quite stunning in parts but there did not seem to be so many little welcoming villages but perhaps that is a plus as it is not too ‘touristy’. As with most large villas there was a bumpy track but as seasoned travellers we expected that and were not put off although it did not work well with the people carrier that we had hired! The family and staff were very helpful in every respect. We had a brilliant holiday, loved the house and hope to return!

I arrived at the home with 8 other family members and friends, and was very disappointed to find that the interior of the home had not been cleaned. There was a layer of dust and dirt on all of the surfaces, including the tables and furniture, as well as all of the kitchenware. The toilet was dirty, the floors had not been swept, there was a mummified lizard on a window sill, and some of the linens had dead bugs on them. We contacted the owner, who insisted that the house was in fact clean, and when I asked for a refund of the rental fee, he refused, and continues to do so. While the home is in a beautiful location, the owner was dishonest with us and is not behaving responsibly..
