What a wonderful holiday!
We stayed here for two weeks. The contact with Rosella was always very nice and friendly during that time and the meal that Teresa prepared for us on the fist day was excellent! The house and garden are just right for two adults and their dogs. The house stays cool during the day, the garden gets a lot of sunshine and is very private. We had lovely weather and spent a lot of time outside. The house is located in the center of the old village. You don't need to go to a gym, bring your walking shoes, there's a lot of stairs to overcome. Go out and have a drink at the Orange Bar or eat some icecream on the village square. It's a beautiful place, green and quiet. There is a lot to see in the surrounding area as well. We have become very fond of Umbria and we plan to go back there sometime.

Perfecto!
This property was perfect for us. We actually chose Corciano among other small (non-touristy) hill towns in Umbria because of this VRBO listing. It is just as delightful as the description and photos. It is its own property, not attached to any other occupied unit and on the main street that circles the small town. The property is so comfortable with a very useful kitchen (we cooked many meals during our 10-day stay), a lovely patio where we often had breakfast and/or lunch. A comfortable living room and table/chairs. A half-bath downstairs and upstairs the bedrooms (one queen, one single) and a full bath with shower. Everything worked perfectly. Rosella is a lovely and helpful host. Theresa, whom others have mentioned, is so nice to have across the street. She made us dinner (asparagus risotto and a fabulous salad, Umbrian bread and biscotti) and sold us many fresh vegetables from her garden. They also offer some transportation services and drove us to and from the train station in Ellera. Corciano is very small so it won't suit everyone. It did suit us very well because we wanted to begin our month in Italy with a quiet spot. There is the wonderful Orange Caffe, with Sara as owner which serves simple snacks, great drinks and cafe. A gelateria, two restaurants, a wine bar that also has substantial and nice small plates and a bar with small plates. There is a small grocery with a very friendly owner that was substantial for our meals at home. We loved it!

Perfect place in a perfect location
We enjoyed our time at this beautiful stone house. Rosella was an excellent host and we would definitely return. Our flight was delayed so we arrived later but Rosella mentioned (as have others in the reviews) that her neighbour Teresa could prepare a meal for us. It was amazing! Homemade pasta and bread, tasty salad, vegetables and fruit all from her garden! She finished with “la crostata” a lovely regional dessert. We loved it! We asked her to prepare a meal for two additional nights. The price was cheaper than a meal at a restaurant. We paired it with a lovely local wine that Rosella gifted us upon our arrival. Grazie! In the mornings I would prepare espresso and we would sit and enjoy the view of the valley in total privacy. Corciano is situated in the perfect location that is central to all main Umbrian cities which we visited by car. We also ventured out to Cortona in Tuscany. From the house it’s a short walk to the piazza where we enjoyed a cappuccino after church and a gelato after an evening stroll. We also dined at a lovely restaurant about four minutes from the house. A memorable stay that we hope to revisit again. Thank you Rosella for your hospitality. Grazie da Claudio e Maria

Lovely house location and owners
Beautiful property which we thoroughly enjoyed staying in. The lovely cool terrace in the evening was a great respite from the hot days and most enjoyable. Ideally located to do both Umbria and Tuscany. Recommended.

Unforgettable time in Corciano, Umbtia
This comfortable and tastefully decorated Home with well equipped kitchen & nicely done bathrooms, and gorgeous outdoors - 3 terraces with the breathtaking view situated in the stone walls of the small medieval town and in close distance for travelling to many attractive locations of Umbria and Tuscany made it the best choice for us. Would love to come back and would highly recommend the place to our friends ! Thank you to the owners who were extremely helpful and always "easy to reach"! The important part of our enjoyable stay were the evening meals prepared by our neighbor Teresa ! Her multi-course Dinners were amazing! Just to mention her hand made tortellini and all kinds of pasta , fresh meets and veggies and desserts! What is travelling without the taste of the local cuisine?! Teresa's meals were recommended by the owners of the house and we give her all 5 STARS!

Wonderful stay in Corciano
Have just returned from 9 days in Corciano staying in this lovely villa. We arranged to meet our host, Rosella upon entering the village and she directed us through the narrow streets to the house. (If you are hiring a car we suggest a small one as many of the medieval villages like Corciano have very narrow winding roads.) The house is on the outer edge of the village with views across the valley. It is very well equipped and very comfortable for a couple. We enjoyed breakfast on the sunny patio and were grateful that it was shaded during the afternoon when the sun was at its highest. Corciano is a great base from which to explore this part of Umbria particularly Assissi & Perugia. Following previous guests' reviews we asked our neighbour Theresa to cook an evening meal for us and can thoroughly recommend her. All the fresh ingredients come from her own garden. She is a fantastic cook and the taste, variety and quantity of the dishes are amazing. We were so delighted we booked her for another two meals during our stay. She speaks very little English but is fluent in French ( if that helps !). Rosella was quick to respond to any questions and couldn't have been more helpful. Overall a stunning experience. Thank you Rosella, Massimo & Davide for a wonderful holiday. Clive & Angie Sept 2019

A lovely hill top town with beautiful veiws
We have enjoyed our 2 weeks in Corciano. Pretty Umbrian town. Rosella was most helpful. We loved the little orange cafe and ate twice in il Convento restaurant 2 minutes walk from the house the ambiance is amazing. I would have give. 5* but agree with an earlier comment that the noise from quarry in the valley during the week spoils the tranquility a little and we could have done with a parasol for the table it was impossible to eat at it when the sun came round. But overall a lovely get away

An enchanting house
The Rock house surpassed all our expectations from the website. It is so tastefully furnished and decorated with books , lovely vases and 'objet d'art'. It was not only a house but a home. There was a beautiful terrace and gardens with choice to sit in the sun or shade. The kitchen was well equipped and Rosella introduced us toTeresa With her home grown produce which one could buy and whose culinary skills were wonderful. With a day's notice she will cook you a 3 course meal and deliver it Rock House is in a good position for visiting places e.g. quite close to Perugia, Assisi,Spello, Gubbio,and Lake Trasimeno which has some very picturesque villages along its shore. Further afield there are Siena and Florence. We had a wonderful relaxing holiday. We would return. Thank you Rosella and the Quaglia family Marion & Hanns July 2019. London

What a wonderful villa. We couldn't have picked a more appropriate place to stay.
This villa in in the heart of the country and a great place from which to make day trips. Rosella was great to work with, even when we locked ourselves out the first day. Her neighbor, Teresa, is an excellent chef. We were only sorry that we could have her dinner for one night.

Relaxing space inside and out!
Beautiful little hilltop town, easy to get about, house is convenient to restaurant, bar, coffee bar. The home had everything you need places outside to relax, equipped kitchen if you like to cook at home? Stone home has been renovated but still remains in character. Rosetta met us and no problems, introduced to Theresa who will cook traditional Umbrian dinners with produce from her garden. We indulged twice in the week as it so good and easy to come home to after a day of touring the area. Thank you for a very special holiday and warm memories.
