Absolutely lovely! Villa di Montelopio lived up to all my crazy movie-inspired expectations of what a week in a villa in Tuscany should be. Maria, the cook, made us delicious dinners almost every night, taking just Sunday off. She, her helper Maria Paola and the caretaker Tubi were as friendly and helpful as could be. The villa itself is incredible, just as in the pictures. Just a few caveats: The villa staffers are wonderful, but they barely speak English; pointing and gesturing will get you only so far if no one in your group speaks Italian. Get GPS in your car; it's worth every penny. And if you go in September, buy plenty of bug spray. But those are just quibbles. Our stay was everything I hoped it would be, and I would go back in a heartbeat

We highly recommend Villa Di Montelopio it is a wondefully maintained villa that dates back as far as the 12th century. Each day a new treasure unfolds as you learn more about the villa. The staff Maria, Sig. Dubi and Maria Palo are fantastic. They are on site to help with all of your needs. Maria's cooking is fantastic and provides an authentic taste experience in Tuscan cooking.Set on beautiful grounds the villa staff has a large garden, presses their own olive oil and makes their own wine. Montelopio is a quaint small village convenient to most Tuscan towns.The accomadations are outstanding and the staff alone provide a huge plus. Five out of five stars!!! We will be back.

Hi Simona, I just wanted to say what a fantastic time we had at Mentelopio. It was even more beautiful in real life then it looked on the internet which is saying something. We all loved it. Also, could you pass on huge thanks to Dubi (not sure how you spell this), Maria and Paola who were all brilliant. Maria's cooking was delicious and Dubi was really efficient and couldn't do enough for us. I loved the puppy Morro too. I'm sure he'll be a great guard dog when he grows up. Victorio was very kind and helped us fix up the wifi. Thanks also for all your help in organising this. If you need a testimonial or anything, don't hesitate to ask.

“…Maria is an incredible cook, and this is the opinion of a group that travels extensively and eats very well..”
