2011:We loved every minute of our time in Umbria!
The house was perfect and Ivo was a helpful and gracious host.
Best Regards, Sarah, Colin and Brianna
Dear ladies,
our holiday was once again fantastic, the holiday rental Casa del papa as well.
Only small remark is that the gate was not working with the remote control and the owner said it would be repaired, but this did not happen during our stay. Apart from this, all the rest was SUPER!
Best wishes, family V. W.

Dear Saskia and Willemijn,
Got your email and wanted to send on comments, for feedback on your website!
Loved our stay at Casa del Papa! Charming home, fabulous view; this Villa over looks surrounding Hill Towns of Umbria. Despite poor weather, it was truly a highlight of our 4 week tour of Italy! Saskia and Willemijn were extremely helpful.
Also enjoyed their Abbey Tour. Would return anytime and highly recommend staying at Casa del Papa!

Hello Umbria,
We are extremely enthusiast about our stay in "Casa del Papa" near Todi where we stayed for a week. It was super! Splendid views, lovely house, complete privacy. The house is very complete with an oven, dishwasher, washing machine, water cooker, coffee machine and the list goes on. Also lots of glasses an plates. Great!
We have been going to Tuscany and Umbria but this was the best residence we have ever stayed in. In fairness I do have to mention it was our most expensive one till date.
The owner is extremely friendly. Pity he only speaks Italian but it does not really pose a problem.
Thank you and who knows till next year. We give this house a 10 out of 10!

Dear Saskia and Willemijn,
How we liked our stay in Casa del Papa or 'casa bella vista' as we called it? Terrific! Every morning we woke up with an incredible view over the Umbrian hills. Ivo is a very good-natured host and thereby very discreet. Twice a week pool cleaning and after a week clean linen. We did not expect that.
The house is tidy and has all modern amenities. We didn't care for any hustle and bustle and loved how we could go to the nearby villages to get some groceries or gelati. We also found enough possibilities to satisfy our gastronomic desires. Cultural excursions are easy to arrange and even Firenze and Rome are within reach. We brought our 10 months old daughter and even she had all she could wish for, high chair, babybed with linnen and lots of space to try out walking.
We used your documentation to plan our stop while travelling to and from Umbria. All in all we have been very satisfied with our stay. This was our second visit to Umbria and we are sold.
Thanks for your services! N.
