Beautiful villa in idyllic location
My family and I spent a wonderful week at La Viridiana and I can’t speak highly enough of the villa itself, the setting and the service we received by the hosts. Antonio and Irene made the whole week so easy, from giving us all the information we needed in the run up to our stay, answering any questions we had and giving us lots of advice for where to visit and how to get to Rome. Irene was available all week to help us, making restaurant bookings for us and giving advice on various things like which train tickets to buy. Their service to us made it a fantastic week and I couldn’t recommend the villa highly enough!

Dépaysement !
Dépaysement total dans cette superbe villa avec une vue magnifique. Propriétaire parlant francais, et super sympa. Très belle piscine. Seuls petits bémols, l'accès , les moustiques et la facture d'électricité.
