Excellent facility....I would recommend an iPod dock / radio to play some music. Also would suggest getting a wi fi extender in the kitchen so that wi fi can be used outside of the house. Maybe some books or games would be a nice touch as there was only BBC news on the TV. Very well equipped kitchen. I would highly recommend this villa.
Absolutely wonderful. The house looks even better than the pictures, top quality.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gran Ducato!!! Everything was perfect and even better than it looked on the website. Francesco and his team were the perfect hosts, arranging a restaurant, wine tour, and a gourmet meal cooked for us at the villa, all of which were fantastic! The setting is gorgeous, and Montelopio is as quaint as you can imagine - we loved our morning capuccinos at the little cafe/shop! We hope to come back someday! The only minor complaint: the freezer was broken, so no ice... And one tip: bring mosquito repellent - they are ferocious in the evenings!
Muy bien atendidos, de maravilla. Es aconsejable. Muchas gracias por el consejo recibido en su día
