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
