we were looking for a place as a family that we could relax, enjoy and revive. Casa Wales provided all of this; a beautiful, very old farmhouse lovingly restored set amidst rolling hills, and surrounded by mountain top villages. It was like finding a little piece of heaven and a very busy world. Iian and Judith were very responsive in a timely manner to any questions we had. Would highly recommend.
Our stay at casa Wales was sublime ! Very nice house and what a beautiful garden and view with a lovely pool. Our stay of 8 days was too short for us so definitely worth repeating. Thanks Lain and Judith !

We arrives three teenagers, one 10 yo and one 12 yo, plus three adults.
The house was SO great, the surroundings magical. Cleaning was perfect and we didn't need anything!
Previous guests were very nice to leave things like pasta, oil, icecream, sunblock and so on - we did the same.
Everybody had an amazing time, the rooms were very nice in regards to tempreature.
We read all instructions thoroughly, and had no problems with either electricity or water or anything.
Loved every moment of our stay, we can really recommend going here!
Thanks for letting us stay here!
No hesitation whatsoever to give this house a 5* review. Weâre just back from a two week stay with various family (adult and late teen) and the house was pretty much perfect. All 5 bedrooms were en-suite and great, the kitchen and the house in general were well provisioned and comfortable but the main selling point is the outside area- the big table is completely shaded all day but there are plenty of other seating areas in the sun if you prefer, the views are insanely lovely, the pool is a really decent size (big enough for all of us to play volley ball) with enough loungers for everyone. Pictures donât do it justice, itâs a really lovely private spot, with plenty of gorgeous hilltop towns nearby.
What a lovely house. The outdoor eating area is perfect for a large group, especially because it stays in the shade all day long. The bedrooms are comfortable (fans were v useful in the heat!) and the bathrooms are lovely. We really enjoyed cooking in the well-appointed kitchen and using the delicious herbs growing in the garden. The ice machine was a godsend! I baked bread in the mornings, ate and swam all day and slept like a log. We experienced fireflies, the cat, golden orioles and wild boar! Thanks so much.
Zeer aangename en romantische woning met prachtig uitzicht over vallei. Deze maand juni was zeer warm doch de talrijke schaduwplaatsen waren zeer aangenaam.Airco zou een pluspunt zijn en eveneens een betere keukenuitrusting. Toch vonden we het verblijf zeer aangenaam en voor vatbaar voor herhaling.
Casa Wales ligt prachtig, omgeven door natuur met prachtige vergezichten. Het is er heel rustig.
Het huis is heel ruim en goed uitgerust.
We hadden er een heel aangenaam verblijf. Klein minpuntje was de hitte binnen, ook snachts. Airco zou een goede investering zijn.
We were 2 families (4 children and 4 adults) from Sweden living in this great house on the Italian countryside for a week. The space, the pool and the location was excellent. We went to see the waterfalls in Sarnano and swam in Lago de Fiastra high in the mountains, and even got invited to a night at the nearby dutch camping site for drinks and karaoke. The only problem we had was that the master bedroom on the top floor was very hot but that was a small problem as there were many bedrooms to choose from. We would all love to return here.
Das Haus ist wirklich so wie auf den Bildern dargestellt. Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Die ruhige Lage war herrlich. Wir haben die Woche sehr genossen und allen hat es sehr gefallen. Auch dir Ausstattung war Einwandfrei.
Wunderschöne Zeit in dem groĂen Haus mit Pool. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt und die wilde Landschaft und Ruhe genossen. AusflĂŒge in die Umgebung sind sehr vielfĂ€ltig. Berge, StĂ€dte und Meer sind erreichbar und jeder Ausflug lohnenswert.
Das Haus ist sehr gerĂ€umig ĂŒber 3 Etagen. Im Dachgeschoss muss man aber bisweilen wegen der DachschrĂ€ge den Kopf etwas einziehen. Die Ausstattung aller Schlafzimmer mit Waschbecken, WC, Dusche/Badewanne ist sehr praktisch. An heiĂen Tagen bzw. in den NĂ€chten sind die Ventilatoren in den SchlafrĂ€umen sehr wichtig.
Der Pool mit AuĂendusche ist unglaublich angenehm, es gibt genug Liegen rund herum - und 2 groĂe Sonnenschirme spenden ausreichend Schatten.
Super ist auch der groĂe Platz mit Esstisch und StĂŒhlen schattig unter dem Vordach. Dort ist es angenehm zu essen - und man sitzt dort fein bis in die spĂ€ten Abendstunden.
Der Blick ĂŒber die waldigen HĂŒgel der Marken ist einzigartig. Die nĂ€chsten HĂ€user sind weit genug entfernt, so dass man seine Ruhe haben kann. In Gualdo (ca. 10 Minuten mit dem Auto) gibt es einen kleinen Lebensmittel-Laden, einen BĂ€cker, Metzger, ein GemĂŒse/Obst-GeschĂ€ft. Eine sehr gute Pizzeria ist ebenso dort in der NĂ€he des Ortes.
Vi var en familie pÄ 3 generationer 2-61 Är, der har nydt 14 dage i et dejligt hus og skÞnt Ude omrÄde med pool, rigt pÄ dyreliv, skÞn udsigt og masser af plads.
VĂŠrtspar et har vĂŠret super hjĂŠlpsomme under optakten til vores ferie. OmrĂ„det har ikke de store kulturelle oplevelser, men vi kĂžrte til et par vandfald og bedende, en sĂž og bade, sommerfuglepark, drypstenshuler, de "dĂžde" byer der var efterladt efter jordskĂŠlvene i 2017-2018, besĂžgte de mindre byer og nĂžd de dejlige rĂ„varer fra omrĂ„det (samt urterne fra havenđ)
Heerlijk huis met ruime keuken en kamers. Goed (snel) contact met de eigenaren.
Suggestie: toch enkele kamers voorzien van airco. Het wordt geregeld zeer warm in de slaapkamers.
Das Haus hĂ€lt, was es verspricht. Es bietet angenehmen Aufenthalt fĂŒr kleine Gruppen bis zehn Personen. Jeder findet in Haus und Garten ein PlĂ€tzchen, um auch mal fĂŒr sich zu sein. Die KĂŒche ist so ausgestattet, dass das Kochen SpaĂ macht. Die Betten haben gute Matratzen und man erwacht entspannt. Dazu trĂ€gt auch die meist stille Umgebung bei.
In Gualdo gibt es verschiedene LÀden in denen man einkaufen kann. Der örtliche Supermarkt bietet eine gute Auswahl. Die Leute, mit denen wir es zu tun haben, wirken gelassen, zugewandt und freundlich.
Vom regelmĂ€Ăig gesĂ€uberten Pool lĂ€sst man sich gerne zum Bade laden. Bei der groĂen Hitze wĂ€hrend unseres Aufenthalts sind die Windmaschinen in den Zimmern ebenso hilfreich wie der Eisschrank, der stets Eis vorrĂ€tig hat fĂŒr kĂŒhle GetrĂ€nke.
Tip: Wer gerne bei offenem Fenster schlĂ€ft, sollte ein Moskitonetz mitbringen, denn abends fliegen nicht nur die GlĂŒhwĂŒrmchen.
Fazit: FĂŒr uns war die Casa Wales ein guter StĂŒtzpunkt, um die Schönheiten der Marken zu entdecken. Wir können das Haus empfehlen. Allerdings dĂŒrfte fĂŒr Familien mit kleinen Kindern die ZugĂ€nglichkeit des Pools ein Thema sein.

We live in Perthshire in Scotland. We fell for this part of Italy many years ago and purchased this lovely house as a family holiday home 14 years ago before embarking on a restoration programme with a local geometra known to us through a mutual friend. We have had many great times in Casa Wales with our 3 children, family and friends. We love it very much.
The area is very beautiful, peaceful and populated by lovely people. It is endlessly interesting, but never overrun by tourists, even in high summer. There are many restaurants to choose from, and an abundance of beautifully preserved hill top villages and small towns to explore. The area is great for walkers and we particularly love the gorge walks in high summer, though there are many high peak options too. Also a great area for cycling (road bikes, mountain bikes, ebikes) which we love. There is information in the house on walks and on many local attractions.
The house benefits from being very accessible, whilst is secluded without being remote. There are quite likely to be memorable wildlife encounters during a stay at the house with deer, boar, porcupines, buzzards, lizards, fire flies and many other animals in the vicinity. The village, which benefits from an excellent restaurant/pizzeria, two bars and a good range of shops, is about 1.8 kms away, and is walkable along tarmac (uphill on the way there) or via the 'white' road that cuts through the fields.
