“From the moment we entered the villa we were enchanted by its loveliness. The first day really set the tone for the rest of the week. Alex showed us around and made us feel very welcomed and fortunate to be spending our vacation at Villa del Castello. He provided a light meal for us including chilled wine which we enjoyed under the lovely grape arbor. He also stocked the frig with eggs and other breakfast items we’d need in the morning. In short our stay and the accommodations always met or exceeded our expectations. ”

“Fabulous from the welcoming introduction to the farewell dinner the owner arranged for us in Acquapendente. Provided so many extras that made our visit easy and most enjoyable. The 4 bedrooms were so equally wonderful that we had a difficult time choosing our favorite. The pergola and outdoor table were great, even in October. The Nature Preserve was a nice surprise, although I’d recommend driving there instead of our walk which meant we had no more energy to walk around the park itself. Loved relaxing in the morning and late evening after our days’ activities. Great launching location for drives to Todi, Orvieto, Montepulciano, Pienza, Pitigliano, Civita di Bagnoregio, Bolsena, Perugia and many more we didn’t have time for.”

“The villa is more beautiful than the pictures would indicate. The town has a lot of history and is very picturesque. Leave your expectations at home. This is a perfect place to hang around and relax, or use as base camp for day trips. But leave plenty of time to enjoy the villa and the town. Simply try to communicate in Italian and folks will jump in to help. This is not the place for anyone who is rigid in their daily routine! ‘Bo with the flow’ and you will have one of the best experiences in your life!”

“Everyone in our party raved about the villa and were sorry they had to leave. The beautiful views, outside dining area pergola, heavenly beds, beautiful bathrooms, overall decor and cleanliness, town of Torre Alfina, unlimited supply of wine from the wine cellar . . . the list goes on and on! And, of course, Arnoldo, the caretaker, who would enjoy a glass of wine with us almost every early evening. Despite the language barrier, we all seemed to understand each other perfectly. Despite 8 adults and one small child, hot water for showers was never a problem and there was plenty of room for all. The owners were so friendly and helpful. They even bought a portable crib, wonderful stroller, and high chair before our visit because we had a toddler with us. Washer and dryer were very helpful. ”

“We have stayed in numerous villas through out the world and I assure you, that we have yet to find one that is as fully equipped and as clean as this one. Excellent property for families. Owners greeted us with wine, cold cuts and cheese and had milk and soft drinks for the kids. An incredible vacation.”

“Another wonderful visit to Torre Alfina! We hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for our Italian friends...we so appreciate the well-equipped kitchen.”

“This is our third year here — and it only gets better!”

“Amazing, peaceful, relaxing atmosphere surrounded by charming scenery. Exactly how I pictured Italian countryside.”

“Loved the property. It was so much more than we expected. We felt comfortable in it from the moment we entered. The villa was large, well appointed, fully equipped and had lovely grounds. The view of the castle from the backyard was amazing.”

“Tutto era perfetto! ”

“We all had a marvelous time. The beds were most comfortable, the other furnishings were good quality and in good repair. We especially liked the physical location because of the easy access to places and experiences we wanted to enjoy. The caretaker and his wife were so very helpful throughout the visit. By the end of the week, we felt completely at home and sort of resented the next group of renters coming in to take “our” villa.”

“Wonderful!!! The Villa itself was lovely, comfortable and cozy, the beds provided great sleeping, and great bathrooms. The grounds around the Villa were spectacular as well the views, especially the view of the Castle in Torre Alfina.”

“Wonderful villa - when we first drove into Torre Alfina, I thought “Did I make the right choice? This is a tiny town!”, but it was PERFECT. Very centrally located for day trips into the towns. We went as far as Pisa, and everyone loved coming back to the villa at the end of the day. VERY relaxing, and there was enough going on in the town in the evening for our 18-year-old son and his friend as well.”

“The property met all of our expectations. It had that villa-in-the-country feel we wanted, plus it had its own castle. What more could you want? Each member of our group noted that it more than lived up to the expectations they had for their Italian Villa experience. Thanks for a great experience.”

“We all had a marvelous time. Your villa is absolutely beautiful. We so enjoyed mornings and evenings in the Adirondack chairs or under the pergola, dinners we made and shared around the dining table inside (thank you for equipping the kitchen well!), and nesting with our guidebooks to plan the next day in the living room at night.”

“This was our third time, and as always, it was a magical experience.”

“Even better than the beautiful pictures. Torre Alfina is a wonderful small village with friendly people.”

“Absolutely incredible!”

“I could not have asked for anything more — the place exceeded my expectations.”

“This villa has everything you could possibly need or want. It is beautifully decorated but is still authentically Italian.”

“One of the nicest vacations ever! Will definitely return!”

“What a perfect piece of heaven! We have loved every moment in this beautiful place.”

“Staying at the Villa Torre Alfina is like being in paradise! The villa is charming and set in serene and peaceful gardens. Lovely soft air, amazing views of the medieval castle, coffee in the garden listening to nature under the pergola covered with climbing vines. Privacy, yet at the edge of the village. One of the best holidays I’ve ever had anywhere.”

“This was our second visit to the villa and it did not disappoint. The villa is a home away from home, with better amenities. We are a couple who love to cook and eat and enjoy downtime away from our everyday lives (yet with good connectivity). The beds are great, the villa is well-appointed. The highlights are the view of the castle (torre) from the backyard and the pizza from the restaurant next door. We will be back.”

“The house and village have beautiful views — they are charming and authentic with world class gelato twice daily.”

“Having spent last week in another villa, staying here has been a HUGE improvement! You have foreseen every eventuality...We’ve loved this location, the village and the nearness to some other beautiful towns.”

“Your house, the grounds, the village and the area surpassed our every expectation. We loved the beauty and simplicity and unspoiled nature of the village and the surrounding towns.”
