Da Nonna Pasqualina

The accommodation and location were both beautiful. Ciorlano is such an evocative and peaceful place. Our host Giovanni looked after us so well throughout, thank you

Lovely and clean accommodations, and outstanding hospitality!

The host, young Giovanni, Is exceptional. He does everything in his power to help you have a wonderful stay. The setting also is extraordinary.. a tiny medieval village on a hill ! We were comfortable, slept wonderfully, walked for miles between the towns in the area, made use of the quite adequate kitchen facilities, and enjoyed Nonna Pasqualina's cake. Giovanni brought us more than enough food for our breakfasts. He also checked in with us at least daily to see if there was anything we needed.

note: I advise anyone booking to make sure you're getting what you need, especially in terms of the number of beds. The listing is confusing. We stayed in both the rooms available on booking. The mountain view room has one queen bed and a little fold up bed that would be useful for a child. There is no sofa bed there. The terrace room has a queen bed and two twin beds, plus a sofa bed. Neither place had a washing machine, but Giovanni was happy to offer us ways to get our laundry done. All in all we are super happy with our stay in Ciorlano ! grazie mille, Giovanni <3

Wir konnten nicht in der Unterkunft schlafen, da sie trotz Bestätigung von Hotels com ausgebucht war. Wir erhielten ein anderes Zimmer ohne Fenster und Möbeln zum gleichen Preis. Wir konnten nicht duschen, weil kein warmes Wasser vorganden war.

Giovanni has been an exceptional host attending promptly to all our needs or questions. The house is pretty cool in hot days, which is great. Very nice, peaceful location at the top of the hill. Well equipped with all you need for a stay with the kids. Excellent price/quality ratio.

The evening before I was due to arrive I had a message to say there had been a problem and I couldn't stay there for a couple of nights: Giovanni met me and took me to a B&B which was perfectly adequate. This shows his genuine concern for his guests. Da Nonna was then sorted and he showed me in. Breathtaking mediaeval top of hill village with spectacular scenery. Moto parked just outside the walls and a short walk to the apartment, which was, perhaps a little compact, simply great. Wonderful views, comfy bed. Well stocked for breakfasts with plenty of teas and coffee. I would have been happy to stay for much longer. Even when I woke up at night, the church bell chimed away to tell me the time! Then on the morning I left, Giovanni gave me a huge cake to take with me, and told me the suppers he had provided at the first B&B were a gift: beat that for true hospitality! Thank you for everything.

I suppose I must find something - um - um - a pair of scissors would have been useful, but I realise they are not normally found in Italian apartments!!

What a beautiful little apartment in a quintessential Italian village perched up thought on a hill. Looked up as we were driving there and thought, wow we’re staying there! The village is a close knit community that used to be a castle. No cars allowed but free parking outside and a very short walk to the apartment. We arrived on an extremely hot afternoon and Giovanni was held up but he left the keys in the apartment front door ( yes a very safe area) and had thoughtfully turned on the air con and the fridge! Basic things that a lot of places do not do! There was water and juice in the fridge, tea and a coffee machine with ample yummy biscuits, cakes and other breakfast foods already there. We chose the apartment with terrace which had a queen sized bed and two singles in the room ((if travelling with family). The terrace was outside the door. Ok was a little small, really I’d call it an entrance terrace but was perfect for us. Kitchen was well equipped and if we needed anything Giovanni was a text away. He dropped in to give us extra breakfast with fresh eggs, sausages, more juice and bread, salami, cheese and fresh cake! Ample. The village closeness meant interaction with the neighbours was often which we found lively (and the local dog/cats) We learnt the ring of the church bells and so never needed to look at watches but slept soundly. We explored the local area over two days but also took time to chill and experience this lovely Italian village and its inhabitants! Definitely would stay here again.
