Podere La Vigna Locazione Turistica

Un cottage avec toutes les commodités, en retrait de la ville, mais à deux pas, des hôtes charmants et accueillants dans un câdre champêtre, que demander de mieux ?

The beautiful kind caring owners.Treated us like family. The peace and calm. Stocked with everything you need and more.

Uitstekend huis, van alle gemakken voorzien (inclusief airco), en met een prachtige, zeer grote tuin, plus boom- en wijngaard. Zeer gastvrije ontvangst door de eigenaar en zijn vrouw.

We chose this spot as a place to recharge between Rome and Florence, in search of a little peace and a garden view, somewhere close to a proper small town. It checked every box. The house is well equipped everything you need, nothing you don’t. There’s a pool for lazy afternoons, and the garden has enough corners for you to lose yourself with a cup of coffee or an impromptu picnic. The hosting family? Top notch. And the people of Orvieto are genuinely warm. It’s a refreshing change of pace after the chaos of Rome 😂. Getting into town is an uphill walk with only a sliver of sidewalk, but most drivers are alert, and we never felt unsafe. Honestly, it’s the perfect excuse to burn off all that pizza and pasta 😂. If you’re after a slice of real Italy, where you can actually hear yourself think, this is your place.

IIf you have small children or are not in good physical shape, you will need a car, as the walk to town is along a main road and requires a certain level of fitness. During our stay, the internet was not working due to a general outage in the region. This was not the host’s fault. Fortunately, we were able to use our own mobile data, although there were moments when that was also limited.

Pierluigi and Alessandra were exceptional hosts, welcoming, generous, and very helpful. Pierluigi drove us into Orvieto the first evening so that we could get our bearings and not have to drive back in the dark on our first night -- very much appreciated! The house is large and comfortable, situated in a farm but with easy access to Orvieto, either via a steep 1 km walk to the city walls, or a 3-minute drive to a very convenient parking lot with elevator access to the city. We loved spending the day sightseeing in and around Orvieto, and then coming back in the late afternoon to the peaceful house amidst olive trees, fruit trees, chickens. Our hosts were so generous with multiple gifts; when we arrived, we found everything we needed for the first day (all basic kitchen provisions plus milk, fruit, pasta, homemade tomato sauce, their own olive oil, biscotti, etc. etc....) and frequently during our stay, one or the other of our hosts would stop by with some eggs freshly laid by their chickens, or a bottle of homemade jam... We stayed nine nights, but it was not enough!! We very much hope to visit again.

We had some problems with unreliable Internet access. Sometimes Internet service worked fine, but then suddenly stopped working. It was not a major issue for us, but somewhat inconvenient.

A lovely house very convenient for Orvieto, but in peaceful countryside. Extremely well equipped. Delightful owners - lots of useful advice about places to visit, parking etc, and we really appreciated their thoughtful gifts of fruit and homemade produce.

Peaceful yet very close to Orvieto and train to Rome. A welcome pool in a rustic setting. Comfortable, clean house with lots of art . All the equipment you will need. Alessandro and Pierluigi were both friendly and helpful. We arrived late and it was so nice that there was pasta and homemade tomato sauce we could cook . They also gave us some home grown fruit .Our boys enjoyed the sweets. We had a lovely stay at Podere La Vigna .

Nothing.

What a lovely spacious house with all amenities needed. You get loads of privacy and the private use of the pool was a lifesaver in the very hot weather we had in the week we were there. Its a very short drive into Orvieto and there are loads of interesting places to visit within 30mins driving. The hosts are always present when you need them, but invisible when you want privacy. They gave us fresh eggs and tomatoes. And we were welcome to help ourselves to fruit from the trees or veggies from the garden. We had such a lovely time!

We loved our stay in Podere La Vigna. The owners are friendly and thoughtful, the house feels like a cosy home away from home and has everything you need. Orvieto is a great town and only 5 minutes away by car.

Nothing

Beautiful rural property and welcoming, generous hosts. Located just out of Orvieto so we were able to have a hire car and tour the surrounding wineries and towns. Cottage had everything we needed for an exceptional stay.
