WHERE TO FIND THIS AGRITOURISM IN UMBRIA

Back to the agritourism description

Comments guests Il Biologico Back to the description of Il Biologico, organic farm Umbria   Dear Saskia and Willemijn, We have had a super holiday Valfabricca at Il Biologico. Nice appartment, great surroundings, lovely pool and Marjatta is a great host who cooks like an angel. Pity we only booked for a week. For our part it might have lasted 3 weeks. To thank her we sent Marjetta 'klompen' but we haven't yet heard from here. Hopefuly she did receive them. A small point of attention: from the main road the driveway of the agriturismo isn't pointed out very well. It is hard to see the sign. There is also some litter, wich is a shame, because the terrain and the agricultura are beautiful and well looked after. Also our compliments for your website. We will in any case recommend your site. Kind regards, Nadja and Peter   Hello Willemijn, As written before: we had a fantastic week. Splendid surroundings, very hospitable family, great appartment, wonderful food. After our arrival (we were very late) we were immediately able to join the table and enjoy our first biological meal together with another Dutch family. Save one night we (to give Marjetta a bit of a rest) we ate every meal at her place and loved it! I immediately set out to hunt for a Umbrian cookbook. In the meantime i also have a little supply of biological olive oil. A shame I only read about your favorite ice cream parlour in Perugia on returning home. When you wrote about it we were already in the area. Ginger ice cream with Spanish pepper I didn't really want to miss that. We enjoyed, Gubbio, Assisi and Orvieto. Apart from that we took a few delightful mountain hikes for wich every time we drove in the directions of Monte Subasio. We had a nice climb and relished the quietness of the mountain meadows. What a delight. Your weblogs are always read with pleasure. Kind regards, Edith   Dear Willemijn, A short note after our holiday at Il Biologico. We really liked it there and we look back at a very pleasant time, also because the owners have a great feeling for service, contact, care etc I also would like to - it was nice by the way to meet you personally - thank you for your advice and support to secure a place for us at this well suited location. It was our first contact with you and your activities, and another thing we enjoyed! We are not visiting italy every year but as soon as we start thinking about that direction, our great experiences at Il Biologico will surely surface again and we will make sure to visit your website. Good luck with your activities and regards,  Ton and Olga   Hello Willemijn, In the meantime we have arrived back in Holland. We would like to let you know that we tremendously enjoyed our stay at Il Biologico. Perfect location, well arranged, very kind and friendly people, lovely food! We also enjoyed communicating with you. Regards, Jos   Hello Willemijn, We would like to thank you for pointing Il Biologico out to us. We have had a very nice week there. The owners are very hospitable and there is a nice informal atmosphere. Nice big apartment in great surroundings and a restaurant. The cooking course was great, also came at a great moment since there were some showers wich past unnoticed. Marjatta is a skilled cook and is very able at transferring her knowledge. Also Pasquale contributed to the introduction of some real italian pasta sauces by preparing two of his family recipes together with us. It was a nice and unique way to get to know Umbria. We will make sure to recommend the villainumbria website to everybody and especially Il Biologico. Kind regards, Evert and Sylvia   Dear Willemijn, In the end it didn't  work out: make an appointment with you while in Il Biologico. A pitty, but such a holiday flew by. We especially enjoyed our first week in Umbria, the hospitality of the owners, their farm, the splendid food. It was like we were at home and could be ourselves. If we are to return to Umbria, it will undoubtedly be a new visit to Il Biologico, even if we normally don't visit the same place twice. But for Marjatta we'll surely make an exception. Thank you for your mediation and the permanent quick reply to our emails. Kind regard, Gemma   Hello Willemijn, We have had a splendid holiday in Valfabricca. It wonderfully situated and we really appreciated Marjatta's hospitality. Kind regards, Els   Back to the description of Il Biologico, organic farm Umbria
