We enjoyed a three week stay in the middle of winter with snow, exploring Umbria and enjoying the fantastic hospitality of Francesco, Claudia, Aziz and Eva, with the dogs daily visitors to our villa. We learned a lot about Italy and it's gregarious and hospitable people and the history of the area. We enjoyed cooking in the farmhouse style kitchen,... more

We have recently returned from a two week break at Casa De La Roccia at Pianciano and I have to sincerely say that this was one of the best holidays that we have ever had ( and we have had a few in our time!). We were slightly apprehensive about what our 18 year old daughter and her boyfriend would... more

We spent a week in Casa dell Arco at Pianciano and found it just as great as all the previous reviews state. We were greeted by Francesco with a bottle of wine and pasta already prepared for our dinner that night. The villa is 600 years old, and has all the rustic charm that you hope for, but also has... more

Unspoiled sceneries, tastefully restored houses, extremely kind and available hosts, Pianciano goes beyond all expectations. It offers peace, beauty and serenity. Many villages and towns around to relish authentic Italian art, style of life, great wines, organic products, untouched outdoors and pleasant walks amongst wild flowers. Yes, we shall return ! more

We took advantage of both the homemade pizza's and the home cooked meal, My mother who is 83 and has poor walking and sight coped well with Il Cipresso. Cluadia and her team were very friendly and made... more

If you want to experience the atmosphere of the truly italian countryside, that is the place to go! Great base for daytrips around the beautiful Umbria. Also close to the... more

Pianciano is simply magical. We stayed in the Casa Del Arco. It was wondrefully appointed and the views were spectacular. Care takers Aziz and Eva were so kind and helpful. Pizza nite is a must w/Aziz. If you are looking for a countryside experience among 20 thousand olive trees look no further. All the "hilltop" towns are within a 20-30... more

this is just a very quick note to thank you for the gracious hospitality extended to us at beautiful Pianciano, When we arrived there, we could not believe we were not in some kind of dream or hypnotic state !!! Everything in, and around, the house was so beautifully, tastefully, and thoughtfully arranged. As we walked from room to room... more

It was every bit as good as the website suggests. Lovely villa, restored in sympathy with surroundings. Very helpful and friendly hosts. The kids loved collecting eggs from the hens each morning and we loved the terrace, the view, the house, and pretty much everything about the place. more
