TESTIMONIALS:

We stayed at Vecchia Casa in April 2008, for a Romantic week-away (or so my Wife tells me). The exquisitely and thoughtfully appointed apartment, complete with antiques is the perfect base to relax or visit the numerous historic and beautiful hilltop towns and villages of Umbria and Tuscany.

Even a day trip to Rome was relaxing, as the mainline, Venice to Rome railway station is only a short 30 minutes drive away in "sleepy" Chiusi.

Great restaurants and a helpful "hostess" in Karen-Louise, ensures we will return to Umbria as soon as possible.

My husband and I stayed at Vecchia Casa for 5 days last May, 2006. We wanted a private and lovely stay in Umbria that would allow us to explore nearby areas including Tuscany. Vecchia Casa has all that and more. Karen, the energetic devoted proprietress was a wonderful hostess and we had all the privacy we needed in the tastefully constructed and decorated apartment that connects to her charming country house on a hillock in a tiny commune near Tavernelle. She helped us locate the markets and sites to visit including Panicale, Cortona, Assisi, and Perugia. One needs a car to explore the countryside, but in the entire 5 days of our rental we didn't need to fill up once with gas.

Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer.
