Reviews of Podere La Vigna Locazione Turistica

We chose this spot as a place to recharge between Rome and Florence, in search of a little peace and a garden view, somewhere close to a proper small town. It checked every box. The house is well equipped everything you need, nothing you don’t. There’s a pool for lazy afternoons, and the garden has enough corners for you to lose yourself with a cup of coffee or an impromptu picnic. The hosting family? Top notch. And the people of Orvieto are genuinely warm. It’s a refreshing change of pace after the chaos of Rome 😂. Getting into town is an uphill walk with only a sliver of sidewalk, but most drivers are alert, and we never felt unsafe. Honestly, it’s the perfect excuse to burn off all that pizza and pasta 😂. If you’re after a slice of real Italy, where you can actually hear yourself think, this is your place.

IIf you have small children or are not in good physical shape, you will need a car, as the walk to town is along a main road and requires a certain level of fitness. During our stay, the internet was not working due to a general outage in the region. This was not the host’s fault. Fortunately, we were able to use our own mobile data, although there were moments when that was also limited.

A lovely house very convenient for Orvieto, but in peaceful countryside. Extremely well equipped. Delightful owners - lots of useful advice about places to visit, parking etc, and we really appreciated their thoughtful gifts of fruit and homemade produce.

Peaceful yet very close to Orvieto and train to Rome. A welcome pool in a rustic setting. Comfortable, clean house with lots of art . All the equipment you will need. Alessandro and Pierluigi were both friendly and helpful. We arrived late and it was so nice that there was pasta and homemade tomato sauce we could cook . They also gave us some home grown fruit .Our boys enjoyed the sweets. We had a lovely stay at Podere La Vigna .

Nothing.

What a lovely spacious house with all amenities needed. You get loads of privacy and the private use of the pool was a lifesaver in the very hot weather we had in the week we were there. Its a very short drive into Orvieto and there are loads of interesting places to visit within 30mins driving. The hosts are always present when you need them, but invisible when you want privacy. They gave us fresh eggs and tomatoes. And we were welcome to help ourselves to fruit from the trees or veggies from the garden. We had such a lovely time!

We loved our stay in Podere La Vigna. The owners are friendly and thoughtful, the house feels like a cosy home away from home and has everything you need. Orvieto is a great town and only 5 minutes away by car.

Nothing

Beautiful rural property and welcoming, generous hosts. Located just out of Orvieto so we were able to have a hire car and tour the surrounding wineries and towns. Cottage had everything we needed for an exceptional stay.

Everything. Great location, quiet, beautiful country setting very close to the walled city of Orvieto. The hostess was welcoming, always ready to help and recommend activities or visits.

Nothing.

The Chiodi family hosted my daughter and myself for our week-long stay in Orvieto. They were charming and generous hosts. If, as I hope, we return to Orvieto next year we would certainly seek them out again.

We had a wonderful stay here. The owners were lovely & generous with fruits & vegetables grown right there & some homemade tomato sauce. The apartment was spacious, comfortable & quiet. It was a short drive into Orvieto so it was very convenient for sightseeing but so peaceful. There was one hiccup as the refrigerator stopped working in the apartment during our stay. The owners immediately tried to fix it & offered to let us use their refrigerator. These things happen & I wouldn’t mention it except that it does show the owners quick response & willingness to do everything possible to resolve it.

Mosquitoes, but if you bring mosquito spray like we did, you can enjoy some lovely walks around their property.
