Our group of 13 had a wonderful stay at the villa. My personal highlights were the cooking lesson and the hot tub which was always ready to hop into. The villa was very tastefully decorated and comfortable. Sitting on the terrace in the evenings was also very enjoyable. The location was very tranquil and the owners of the villa were very approachable and friendly.

We absolutely loved staying at Podere Il Doccio. Easy reserve made the reservation process very swift and simple. When we arrived we were greeted by Irene who was fantastic, she was so welcoming and helpful with showing us around the property and giving us so much information on things we could do nearby. Irene was also easy to contact to help us make dinner reservations and put together itineraries for us over our trip. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We were a big group and there was space for all of us, including them accommodating us and adding an extra bed. The pool was beautiful and the we thoroughly enjoyed hanging out in the evenings on the terrace. I couldn't recommend staying here enough. Thank you for our wonderful stay.

Vi havde to fantastiske uger med familie og venner i dette dejlige hus! Ejeren var yderst ydmyg, venlig og uforstyrrende. Værten var forbi tre gange og var interesseret i vores velbefindende og var yderst hjælpsom. Huset er velekviperet, og er køligt i varmen og har dejlige og rummelige værelser. Poolen bliver omhyggeligt rengjort hver 3. dag. Terrassen og omgivelserne i skoven oplyses om aftenen med med hyggelige lys, og i området er der rig mulighed for at besøge vingårde, hvor du kan købe og smage vin. Denne kan med fordel nydes i de rolige og hyggelige omgivelser om aftenen på terrassen. Der er en meget stejl nedkørsel til huset. Der er mange parkeringsmuligheder. Der er ca. 10-12 min til nærmeste indkøbsmuligheder. Vi vil SÅ gerne tilbage igen!!!

Better than "excellent", more precisely our experience was extraordinary.....in every way. I would return to Villa Il Doccio if at all possible, on another visit. Everyone, really everyone, in my family of 12 from ages 70 years (me) to 10 months (grandbaby Holiis) celebrated this choice of vacation locations. Irene,our host, made us feel as if we were her special and only guests. The dinner she and her brother Eduardo prepared for us from scratch, complete with cooking lessons for the kids, was memorable. Enjoying this dinner, prepared in part by us, will be a etched in our collective minds forever....sitting at the long table on the veranda, under the grapevines....fantastic. The renewed rustic house with 4 separate living quarters was even better than described, comfortable and charming. The pool area was extravagant in space and was used daily and enjoyed by all of us. The kids had a ball. I could not have wished for anytihing better or different.
On a personal side note, I have to extend my special thanks to Irene, who when she learned during our dinner that my wife's brother was taken seriously ill back in the USA, she volunteered to drive with me back and forth to the Rome airport that following morning to put my wife on the next plane back to be with her brother. Her kindness and much appreciated help brings a tear to my eye.
I know you will love the Villa Il Doccio and Irene and her family should you be lucky enough to visit there.
