Vacation Rental Name: Villa del Castello

This was our second rental through Rentvillas. They are wonderful to deal with, and make the whole process effortless. Any questions or concerns are answered quickly.

Villa del Castello is in Torre Alfina, situated right up where Lazio-Umbria-Tuscany meet up. This villa exeeded all our expectations. The pictures are only a taste of what you will see and experience. We were greeted on our arrival by Jeff, who is the owner with his wife Robin. They are both such gracious hosts. On arrival, there was a whole spread laid out for us, of meats, cheeses, olives, and a scrumptious walnut torte.

There is nothing that is lacking in the villa. The kitchen is setup for a chef to cook, every size of clad cookware you can imagine. And the cupboards were stocked. Especially the delicious wine that is there for you to enjoy, a whole wine cellar full.

Everything was found to be first class. The furnishings, the bathrooms, and the lush linens. We felt like we were royalty, especially being next to the castle.

The village of Torre Alfina is perfect for walks around town. A great bakery is nearby as is the gelateria, a must to have. There is also two great restaurants. But you must have the mushroom soup at Ristorante Nuovo Castello, it is heaven.

We were situated perfectly for daytrips to all the areas, even up to Cinque Terre. The gardeners Alex and Olga spoke english, and were very eager to offer help where needed.

We enjoyed our two weeks of living like a dream. Rentvillas are great to work with, and we hightly recommend them. If you are looking for a place to stay in Italy, check out Villa del Castello, you will not be disappointed.
