The property was everything we hoped, very clean and good facilities. The children loved the pool! The hostess was very friendly and spoke excellent English. We had a fantastic time would recommend to anyone.

• We were unusual renters since we spent 5 months at Casale Eredita, from November 2013 through March 2014. We are two retired sisters who now rent for 5 months every year in a different area of Europe, immersing ourselves in a select region, becoming a part of the community and getting to know the surrounding areas. It is almost hard to say how much we loved this wonderful home and the village of Orte and on March 31st, it was very difficult to leave. The converted barn was perfect - modern, comfortable, completely outfitted for ease of living, and wonderfully situated in the countryside and farmlands of the Tiber Valley. But most of all, Giacinta and Gianpiero and their two daughters are the absolute perfect hosts. They are warm and friendly owners – very accommodating but never intrusive and Giacinta is always available to answer questions about the area. This was our fourth year renting in Europe, and this is the first rental we’ve had with each of us having an equally huge, comfortable bedroom with our very own en suite bathroom. Being here during the off-season months, we did not avail ourselves of the large swimming pool, but the gardens, even in winter are big and very beautiful. Orte is in itself and ideal location being only minutes from the major North-South highway so we could easily visit Siena, Assisi, Todi and Orvieto, just to mention a few. And the Orte station allowed us to easily train into Rome and Florence. There just couldn’t be a better, more central location.

This is one of those places you want to tell the world about. But at the same time keep to yourself.

We stayed at Casale Eredita for four fantastic weeks!

The house is perfect. There is everything you could possible need. And if something is missing the wonderful Giacinta fix it right away.

Every room is decorated with a lot of tought, love and good taste.

We stayed in the yellow room. The view from the bed was like a picture in a fancy magazine. Olive trees, pink roses and the turqoise water from the pool. We have a 9 month old son and for him Giacinta made a adorable baby bed.

Outside is a big private garden. Full with diffrent plants and roses, well taken care off. Very nice! During the day, when the sun moves there are diffrent places to find shadow. This was very good for us and our baby.

The location is on the countryside. All you can hear is the wind and diffrent birds. If you enjoy going for a walk or run it's perfect. You can go in any direction and you will have a private time. Just you and the beutiful nature with the oaks like a roof giving you shadow. Sometimes you just have to stop to look at the hills, the fields and the diffrent villages you can see in distance.

Orte is a beutiful little village. Quite few tourists. You have the local market, fish store (fresh fish tuesday and friday), bread (won the price for best bread in italy), meat and vegetables. When you shop at these places you can make your own spagetti vongole or vitello with some lemon. Perfect!

Your host, Giacinta, is simply the best! She is a varm and caring person. Who knows when to stop and chat or just say ciao and walk by. She helped us out when our boy got sick and had accident so we had to go to the dentist. To us she became very special.

She showed us the real Italy and took us to places we nerver would have found. Like the best buffel mozzarella, oil and wine fattoria.

You would think that staying that long in the same place you would have something to complain about. But we don't (and we have traveled a lot and we're picky).

It's simply a fantastic place and so are the surroundings.

You would make a mistake not coming here!

Het is een mooi huisje op een super locatie! Ik heb er een mooie tijd gehad en de eigenaren zijn erg aardig!

Zum ersten Mal haben wir unseren Sommerurlaub in der Casale Eredita verbringen dürfen. Das wunderschön gelegene und sehr gepflegte Haus besitzt 3 geschmackvoll eingerichtete Schlafzimmer mit jeweils einem eigenen Bad.

Die kleine Küche ist komplett mit allem Komfort ausgestattet. Erholung pur, durch den geschmackvoll gestalteten Garten mit 100 verschiedenen Pflanzen und den großen Pool, der zur alleinigen Nutzung den Gästen zur Verfügung steht.

Besonders hervorzuheben sind die fürsorglichen und liebenswerten Vermieter, die gerne bei Bedarf mit Rat und Tat zur Seite stehen.

Trotz der ruhigen und erholsamen Umgebung kann man Rom in nicht mal 1 Stunde bequem mit dem Zug erreichen (Tagesticket pro Person derzeit 12,- Euro).

Ein eigenes Auto ist auf jeden Fall erforderlich, da die Geschäfte + Bahnhof wenige Kilometer entfernt sind.

Wir freuen uns schon auf nächstes Jahr und auf die ausgezeichneten Kochkünste von der Vermieterin Giacinta (unbedingt Pizza und Tiramisu probieren).
