We were 4 audlts and 4 children, ages 9-11, who stayed for a week in this beautiful house. Yes there were lots of ants wanting to share our breakfast outside in the mornings, yes there were the occasional frogs jumping into the pool, but the amazing surroundings, the atmosphere in the spacious house, the quiet and completely private location and the lazy hours beside the pool, on the sun beds when the kids where playing in the pool outwheigh the ants and frogs by far! We felt very welcome, both by Federico and his son Tommaso, who were very helpful with suggesting restaurants, as well as making reservations for us, and daytrips - made our stay even more comfortable.
Tips: do not do your grocery shopping in the nearby Penny Market or Eurospin, drive the extra minutes to shopping centre Continento Mapello, there is a big IperCoop with fresh food and a large variety of grocery. But do take a morning walk down to the local bakery and buy fresh bread, ham, cheese and other delicacies.
