About The Experience
Overlooking the Tevere River Valley, which is on the border of Umbria and Lazio, is where this vacation rental rests. In addition to panoramic views, this Italian villa has a private swimming pool and beautifully furnished terraced grounds. Private and independent, this holiday accommodation is just right for a family, as the town of Otricoli (and its fun springtime fair!) is still just a few minutes drive away.
Location Description
The property is located three kilometers from Otricoli, a town situated high on a hill with fantastic views. In the heart of the town is an ancient archeological site of Ocriculum, an early Umbrian settlement that was reconstructed during the Renaissance. Otricoli is home to a nice selection or shops, restaurants, and small markets as well as an ancient church. A fair is held each spring, or 40 days after Easter, showcasing the local products and culture. A beautiful and fascinating city to visit many times is Orvieto, a city built on volcano tufa rock with a magnificent Duomo and charming streets. It also features once secret labyrinth of caves and tunnels that lie beneath the surface. Many homes of noble families where equipped with these passageways as a means of escape from times of siege. Guided tours are now offered for the visitor! Another possible daytrip destination is the Eternal City itself: Rome.
Rome: 85 km
Orvieto: 50 km
Narni: 15 km
Orte: 10 km
Otricoli: 3 km

    Customer Reviews

    Overall:
    It was a nice experience though the cleanliness of the kitchen and other areas was not adequate (bathrooms were clean). I assume we were the first people using the property so there was no excuse for the cobwebs and the grimy dusty kitchen shelves. The refrigerator had an odor. The swimming pool must have been just filled prior to our arrival as the water was cold which did warm up as the week progressed it would have been nice if the caretakers would have filled it a week earlier. It would have been nicer to have had two hand towels in each bathroom for each week - sharing a hand towel with another person for a full week I think is too much.
    Enjoyed Most:
    The bedrooms were on the lower level with ceiling fans which made it cooler for sleeping.
    Enjoyed Least:
    There were caretakers (never mentioned in the literature) that live in the house. I felt they were often underfoot which did not provide for a sense of privicy. The BBQ was not convenient being located down the hill with a number of steps and I question when the last time it was used the area was uncared for.
    Surrounding Area:
    The ability to visit different communities
    Nearby Events or Locales:
    Otricoli - not walking distance. Not enough space elsewhere - we had wanted the services of a Chef were told cook service was availabe which proved to be the wife of the caretaker very simple (we had 2 meals were not impressed) which meant we ate out most nights. The kitchen was not conducive to preparing our own meals.
    Tips or Restaurants:
    We stayed for a couple of nights prior to entering the villa at the Hotel Umbria in Otricoli (simple but adequate). The family owners were delightful and very helpful in getting to know the surrounding area. They have a nice restaurant which also serves lunch on the week ends.
    Directions:
    We used a GPS and still had difficulty directions were not adequate (there was a right turn, not mentioned) following the left turn onto the dirt road. They were not actual turns but forks in the road (signs were at the first turn for other properties which could have been used as a reference point.
