About this villa rental
Close to rafting, cave exploring, and more, this family-friendly villa brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 14-minute drive to Val di Chiana or the 20-minute drive to La Scarzuola (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).
Relax by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the garden of this 4844-sq-ft villa, which also features a deck or patio and a firepit. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at billiards, or enjoy the WiFi, cable/satellite TV, and stereo.
As you settle into this 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental, you'll find a living room, a sofa bed, a BBQ grill, and a fireplace. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, a bidet, and towels. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.

FABULOUS!!
FABULOUS!!
Let me start by saying what wonderful and helpful people Daniela and her family are! The accommodations could not have been more perfect for our family (my husband, myself, and our 4 children), my mother-in-law, and my parents. So that was 9 people total and we never felt the least bit crowded. There was plenty of space for us to convene as a large group, but at the same time, we each had our own quiet, private space to retreat to when we needed. It was too cool for us to use the pool, but it was very tempting!
We picked this location specifically because we could use it as a home base and explore Florence, Siena, and Assisi each in a separate day trip. It worked beautifully. We gained a true cultural experience by exploring the village of Ficulle, using our minimal knowledge of the Italian language, hand motions, and the friendly people's eager helpfulness.
100% recommend Casale Rotanselva!!
*Note: We actually stayed here in 2013, but it wouldn't let me input that date.

Wonderful and Relaxing environment
Wonderful and Relaxing environment
Rotanseva is an “Agritourismo” in a bucolic environment with views of the countryside. My wife and I vacationed at Rotanselva for three weeks in late Spring and had a memorable, comfortable and relaxing time. The main house and cottage accommodated our family of 13 with ease and complete privacy for us, our adult children and grandchildren (ages 3 to 13). The swimming pool was cleaned daily by Roberto.
The town of Ficulle was a picturesque walled medieval village having a marvelous restaurant with local food. However, be prepared to enjoy a leisurely dinner.
Travel by train was easy. From the station, only 7 kilometers from Rotanselva, trains go directly into the center of both Florence and Rome.
The Etruscan city of Orvieto (22,000 people, approximately 15 kilometers down the Autostrada) offered an underground necropolis dating back to the 6th century BC., as well as many wonderful shops, museums, and restaurants.
Sienna was also easily accessed by rail; however, we drove to enjoy the countryside.
All in all, we would recommend Rotanselva as a destination in Central Italy facilitating easy access to other historic Italian cities and sites.
The only negative was the 1.8 kilometer State maintained dirt road from Ficulle to Rotanselva which needed extensive repair.
We found the owners, Daniella and Roberto, genuinely gracious, easily accessible and dedicated to providing their “guests” a comfortable and friendly environment.

The dream come true
The dream come true
Magnificent, beautiful and big house! Owners decorated the house with great love and attention to small details. We felt right at home. The beautiful countryside around makes you forget about all and enjoy the life.We have visited Siena, Montepulciano and Lake Trasimeno. We have visited a winery, where local wine have tasted.
The owners are very welcoming and kind people. We are very happy that met them. Daniela - the owner of the house - unique person. She knows many languages, so there were no problems with communication. It was a memorable evening organized by Daniela, when her son and his friend (both professional chefs) gave us master class on the Italian cuisine. It was fun and perfectly.
Daniela, thanks a lot to you and your family for a wonderful holiday.

Lovely and huge house in beautiful countryside...we stayed here with nine people and far more space than we needed...good pool, clean, good facilities (table tennis pool table, well stocked kitchen - we made our own pasta! etc). Quite a long unpaved track from the town but not really a problem even in our rubbish rental cars. Owner extremely nice, helpful and easy-going...recommended a couple of bars in town and the pool was cleaned every morning. Taverna restaurant in Ficulle good, but funny opening times. Good agri-tourismo half way to Fabro too, but hard to find - there's a turning on the right that looks like a golf course. Only slight downside is that it is next to a working farm so quite noisy in the early morning - overall though a great place to stay, good views and relaxing holiday.

Klasse Urlaub mit klitzekleinen Mängeln
Klasse Urlaub mit klitzekleinen Mängeln
Zu 14. sind wir Ende August für 10 Tage nach Ficulle in die Villa Casale Rotanselva gereist. Es ist ein wirklich riesiges Anwesen mit allem, was das Herz begehrt und genau so, wie es die Bilder zeigen. Alles perfekt sauber!
Die Häuser selber waren wie auf den Fotos zu sehen liebevollst eingerichtet. Normalerweise sind ja Ferienhäuser/-wohnungen eher spartanisch eingerichtet, da sicherlich Dekogegenstände "Füße bekommen" und bestimmt auch viele Mieter nicht wirklich sorgsam damit umgehen. Hier konnten wir von "spartanisch" nichts spüren. Ganz im Gegenteil: in jedem Eck, an jeder Wand ein Hingucker. Auch die Häuser waren sauber und was mir sehr gut gefiel: Mückengitter an den Fenstern! Wir konnten in den 10 Tagen in unserem Zimmer keine "Untermieter" ausmachen. Anders war das allerdings bei unserem Bekannten, der das Zimmer neben der Küche bewohnte: dort wimmelte es leider von Heimchen, kleinen Grillen. Jeden Abend machte er sich mit Spray und Schuh bewaffnet auf Jagd. Zum Ende des Urlaubs fanden wir dann auch überraschend die Ursache: Unser Zimmer lag genau über dem unseres "Heimchen-Bekannten", unser Sohn duschte und plötzlich schreit der Bekannte in seinem Zimmer los. Da kam ihm doch tatsächlich das Duschwasser unseres Sohnes aus der Decke. Und da tummelten sich auch diese kleinen Biester. Das wird nun wohl nach unserer Abreise behoben.
Beim Kochen mußten wir uns gegen Mücken ohne Ende wehren. Die hatten es in erster Linie auf unsere Beine abgesehen. Aber mit geeigneten Mitteln machbar. Im Vorratsraum erledigte ich 2-3 kleine Kakerlaken, ich denke, das ist für die Jahreszeit und die Temperaturen normal.
Draußen hatten wir Freude an jeder Menge kleiner Eidechsen.
Was sehr störend war waren nachts Hunde, die sich wohl von Ort zu Ort durchs ganze Tal "unterhielten": gejaule, gebelle usw. Die Schweine im Nebengebäude gaben gen morgen zu üblen Gerüchen auch gerne mal störende Laute von sich und die Hähne ... na ja....
Auch erwähnen möchte ich unbedingt die Zufahrt: neues, tiefergelegtes Auto -> UNMÖGLICH! Tiefe, wetterbedingt ausgewaschene Löcher, machten die Fahrt jedesmal zum Höllenritt.
Ansonsten waren wir mit den Vermietern höchstzufrieden, hatten einen netten Kontakt und können das Haus wirklich weiterempfehlen, wenn man ebenfalls über die "klitzekleinen Mängel" hinwegsieht.

Wunderbare Woche
Wunderbare Woche
Wir waren mit 6 Erw, und 6 Kindern für eine Woche dort und haben alle bequem in das Haupthaus gepasst und auch nur dort die Küche benutzt, immer draußen gegessen bei herrlichem Wetter. Ich empfehle an mind. einem Abend den Koch zu buchen (25 Euro pro Erw., 15-20 Euro pro Kind, 4 Gänge), das war sehr angenehm.
Das Gelände ist weitläufig und abgeschieden, am schönen Pool hatten wir sehr viel Spaß. Vermieterin Daniela war hilfsbereit und freundlich.
Der Anfahrtsweg ist Geschmackssache, aber nur die Rückfahrt mit voll bepacktem Wagen bergauf bei Gegenverkehr ist eine wahre Herausforderung, sonst geht es schon - dafür ist man eben auch unter sich.

Villa da sogno immersa nella campagna umbra
Una villa davvero speciale! Qui ci si sente davvero a casa, avvolti iun atmosfera mozzafiati, circondati da arredi straordinari, legno , cotto e farro batturo dalle finiture straordinarie. Gli esterni sono altrettanto affascinanti: c'è un grande parco con zona piscina recintata e sicura per bambini. dalla zona piscina si gode una bellissima vista su uliveto e valle del Chiani. La piscina è tenuta molto bene, pulita dai proprietari ogni mattina !!!Uscendo dalla proprietà si possono fare camminate bellissime senza prendere l'auto. I proprietari sono molto gentili e disponibili. La prenotazione è stata facile, le comunicazioni veloci e molto chiare, i prezzi trasparenti e senza sorprese!...Insomma un esperienza indimenticabile nel cuore verde dell'umbria

SPLENDID PLACE!!
SPLENDID PLACE!!
We had a very nice holiday at Ficulle.
The lady of the house Daniela and her husband Roberto were very nice, friendly and helpful.
The house is beautiful and clean and big enough for our 3 families, including 6 adults and 7 children.
The garden is also big with a beautiful swimmingpool. It's a very quiet place, we loved it.
Ficulle is a little town and the kindness we received from the owners, we also received from all the italian people we met during this week.
In a "little supermercato" in Ficulle, we tasted delicious homemade olive oil and cheese.
Umbria is a beautiful region, we saw Orvieto, the lake of Bolsena, Todi and we made a trip with quads that braught us through meadows, rivers and beautiful places in nature. We will never forget it! ;)
We really recommend this house to pass your holidays.

Umbrien für Genießer
Umbrien für Genießer
Wunderschönes Landhaus, dass mit viel Liebe zum Detail individuell eingerichtet ist und sich in einem sehr guten Zustand befindet.
Das Anwesen liegt auf einem großen, gepflegten Grundstück und besteht aus 2 Gebäuden (2. Gebäude Appartement) und hat uns (6 Erwachsene und 6 Kinder) sehr viel Platz und einen herrlichen Blick über und in die Landschaft Umbriens geboten.
Die vorher gemachten Angaben stimmten zu 100% und die Räume, die Gebäude und das Grundstück sind geräumiger als es auf den Fotos erscheint.
An der Ausstattung und den Zimmern gab es, bis auf wenige vernachlässigbare Kleinigkeiten, nichts auszusetzen und haben unsere Erwartungen übertroffen.
Besonderheiten:
-Pool ist weiträumig mit einem Zaun umgeben (ohne das man dieses großartig merkt), was für Eltern mit kleinen Kindern von Vorteil ist.
-W-Lan Anschluß vorhanden und funktioniert tadellos
-toller Pool, der täglich gereinigt wurde
-Liegen am Pool und genügend überdachte/beschattete Sitzgelegenheiten
-Anfahrt erfolgt über Schotterstraße (ca. 2 km) von Ficulle
Von der Anfrage bis zur Abreise erfolgte eine sehr kompetente, hilfsbereite und herzliche Betreuung der sehr gut deutschsprechenden Anbieterin.
Fazit: Ein wunderschönes Landhaus mit viel Charme zum genießen, in dem man sich sofofrt heimisch fühlt und dass wir (Erwachsene + Kinder) zu 100% empfehlen können!!
Ausflüge:
Orvieto: toller Ort mit vielen schönen Gassen, Gebäuden und Dom. Allerdings sind die Höhlen dort nicht so interessant. (ca. 30 - 40 Min.)
Lago Bolsena: Schöner See zum Baden oder Bootfahren (ca. 1 h)
Montepulciano: laut Aussage unserer weiblichen Teenager Drehort zu Szenen aus "twighlight 2" bei der Piazza. Aufstieg erfolgt über eine sehr schöne Straße mit vielen Weingeschäften (Toskana ca. 40 Min)
Ficulle: Eisdiele mit super leckerem selbstgemachtem Eis, schöne Keramiken im Zentrum. Turm Samstags und Sonntags von 10.30 bis 12.30 Uhr geöffnet
Assisi, Perugia und vieles mehr.....

Traumwoche in Umbrien
Traumwoche in Umbrien
Sehr netter Ansprechpartner! Das Haus ist wie vom Märchen, sehr schön ausgerüstet, mit vielen ursprünglichen Objekten. Grosser Garten, Swimmingpool gross und jeden Tag vom Besitzer gereinigt. BBQ, schneller Wi-Fi Internet-Anschluss. Wir haben fast kein Fehler gefunden.
Die Zufahrt ist nicht optimal - Feldweg - aber damit muss man beim Urlaub auf dem Dorf rechnen.
Dies Haus kann ich jedem empfehlen!!
