The town of the villa ? what was right near the villa and what was around it via driving ? many, many, day trips. Staying the in the adjoining house allowed us full use of the whole property, but had this little bit of privacy as well. it took a while to figure out the coffee maker, and the washing machine?s 2 ½ hour cycle was a bit much, but we worked it out. At first the lack of dryer seemed to be a problem, but was not at all.? a wonderful location, a beautiful place, a most gracious owner/greeter. The surrounding area was beautiful as well as the town having some places to go .? Loved the local restaurant, which has been recognized in other reviews? very good food, friendly staff, and right across the street.Great place. the service from Papavero was great, and the availability of many properties is wonderful. I?d highly recommend the service ? Had a lovely time and will definitely use Papavero again, either in the same place or a different place. .Papavero Note - Washing machines normally take 2 1/2 hours to fun their cycle and dryers are rare in Italy. But I am glad you got into the Italian way of life and found it wasn't that bad to wait for laundry to dry! Thanks for your remarks!
