The whole villa and rose gardens are very beautiful, the furniture was perfect for the whole Italian feel of the place. Even the architectural walls outside and statues were on point. A little structure to the side reminded me of the Colosseum in Italy.The water fountain was very relaxing to hear. Bedroom was devine. Bed so comfortable and the beddings were really luxurious. Everything was so tasteful. A bit of olde world charm. Patio too comfortable, you would want to take a good book and read it there whilst looking at the multitude of colourful roses. Bathroom fittings was amazing and really neat. I think the underneath of the sink looked like a singer machine it was so thoughtful whoever designed and decorated this place is really a genius with the whole theme in mind. The little touches , paintings on wall, furniture fits into this place like a glove. Nothing seems out of place at all. It all fits to make your visit memorable.

I arrived late on a Saturday night and they accommodated me with the late check-in and I REALLY felt like a beer after travelling and I was gifted a Quart (Heineken Stout I think) - better than a chocolate on my pillow :)

    we loved the fact that the place was quiet and private. It was the perfect space for two to enjoy. There was a heater provided for the cold nights which was great and the hosts provided great information and made themselves available for any questions.
