We had a lovely week in this very spacious house. It was very good to have 6 bedrooms, all of which were ensuite. The kitchen is very well equipped with lots of big pots and pans, and had plenty of plates and glasses. It was very easy to cook big meals and all sit very comfortably around the long dining table. The swimming pool is a very good size and has lots of shaded areas around it. Unfortunately there were lots of mosquitoes and horseflies which comes with living in the countryside in a hot country. A hardly used road separates the house from the swimming pool area but it is very safe even for children as there were hardly any cars going by while we stayed there. The house is an old monastery attached to a small church so the bells provide a lovely touch. The owners were wonderful and very helpful. Thank you for a very pleasant stay.
Beautiful grounds and pool. Everything you need in the house. Good beds and bathrooms. Special feature airconditioning in all bedrooms. Lovely and helpful hosts. One disadvantage was a bit of a dark but comfortable living room. And overall no telephone reception except in kitchenand bedrooms. Great if you want to take a break from work and socials. Beautiful surroundings and we had great trips and hikes in the neighbourhood.
Excellent equiped countryhouse in a wonderfull landscape. Very friendly and helpfull owner. Absolutly tastefull interior and a lot of space for at least 12 people. We will come back for sure! Thanks a lot!

We were a group of 12 visiting the area to spend time together and celebrate a birthday. The accommodation was lovely - and an en-suite for each bedroom was a bonus. It was a hot week but each room had a fan which was perfect. The house had everything we needed and the hosts were very kind. The welcoming cake and local produce was a super touch. The pool area was wonderful and much used.Just be aware that one room with 2 single beds is reached through another double bedroom. This could be a problem if 4 adults were needing the beds. Fortunately, our children made use of those two rooms.
JeĆŒeli potrzebujesz wypoczÄ Ä od zgieĆku miejskiego to moim zdaniem nie ma lepszego miejsca. Dom przestronny i bardzo dobrze wyposaĆŒony. Basen duĆŒy i czysty. DuĆŒo miejsca w ogrodzie do relaksu i wypoczynku. Miejsce do wspĂłlnych posiĆkĂłw przy basenie dla 12 osĂłb. Zdecydowanie polecam ten dom
Beautiful place in the amazing Umbria location. Away from civilization. We loved it. Kids loved it. Everybody loved it. Thank you Vincenzo for your and your wife's hospitality. We definately recommend that location for families with children.
We had a lovely stay in Umbria with a total of 10 friends (and 4 small children).
It is a lovely place, perfectly suitable for such large groups. We enjoyed the lovely garden, barbecue and swimming pool a lot.
Thank you!

Beautiful location and perfect host for a restful holiday
Val di Rose is an ideal "far from the Madding Crowd" location because with Vincenzo and Monica on site we had the benefit of their proximity while being in the depths of the tranquil beautiful and genuine Umbrian countryside where some of us actually came across at night a pair of native porcupines (a truly rare sighting)!! The accomodation was welcomingly and thoughtfully rustic, clean, tidy, spacious, and well equipped - ideal for minimising the need for restaurants or eating out. The landscaped garden around the pool is magical and practical for maximising "al fresco" gatherings and meals. We were also fortunate that the garden fig trees were heavy with ripe fruit ready for eating with Italian charcuterie! On arrival, Vincenzo and Monica provided us with a freshly home baked cake, lasagna, and garden vegetables & fruit. We also enjoyed great pizzas prepared by them. Altogether a perfect Umbrian countryside holiday with helpful and very hospitable hosts. We would love to return.

Idyllisch gelegene WohlfĂŒhloase
Wir waren mit 3 Familien und insgesamt 12 Reisenden fĂŒr 2 Wochen GĂ€ste von Enzo und Monica. Es war eine wunderbare Zeit, in einem wunderschönen historischen Fleckchen Erde. Die Gastfreundschaft von Enzo's Familie ist grandios, so gab es am ersten Tag beispielsweise als Willkommensgeschenk frisches Obst und GemĂŒse aus dem eigenen Garten und eine Lasagne im KĂŒhlschrank. FĂŒr Rat und Tat stand die Familie Cuomo auch stets zur Seite , ohne dabei aufdringlich zu sein. Ausflugsmöglichkeiten gibt es einige, und auch kleinere LebensmittellĂ€den, Bars sowie medizinische Versorgung (brauchten wir leider) stehen nur ein paar Autominuten entfernt zur VerfĂŒgung. Was auch optimal ist, dass jedes Zimmer sein eigenes Bad hat, was bei so vielen Personen echt praktisch ist. Ich kann diese Location aus tiefstem Herzen jedem empfehlen der etwas Ruhe haben will, aber dabei auch nicht allzuweit "weg vom Schuss" sein will. Wander- und Mountainbikemöglichkeiten gibt es der vielen .
Danach einen Sprung in das erfischende Wasser des gepflegten Pools... Herrlich...
Enzo and his wife are the PERFECT Host and Hostess. We arrived to a wonderfully clean house and there was a CHOCOLATE CAKE made for us and a LASAGNE in the Fridge. A box of tomatoes waited us on the table, so wine and basic provisions.
The rooms (all en suite) were clean, cool and had good views.
Ours at the EAST end had a small balcony and the VIEW....breathtaking.
The outside area was Perfection, 3 sitting areas with tables and chairs or benches, though we preferred to eat "en famille" neare the pool.
There was a BBQ (which we did not need to use).
The Pool was cool as....
The garden was manicured.
The House had a spacious kitchen with 2 fridge/freezers (one under the stairs in MY OFFICE!)
The Clothes Washing machine was also under the stairs in MY OFFICE!
There was a DISH Washer in the kitchen, Micro, toaster, kettle, electric hand whisk (wand).
There was an indoor dining room (10-12) and seating area, next to the kitchen and cool in the evening, romatic by candle-light.
On our last evening Enzo and his wife made us PIZZA - 1 with mushrooms (funghi), one with tomato, one Marghertia (tomato and basil) and one plain (for a friend who had dietary needs).
They were perfect hosts and lived above us, so were always there to answer any questions.
Parking is outside but screened from the sun.
RECYCLING - always a problem in Italy in the past, but now 4 small bins in the house and 3 outside in the grounds.
NOTE: Italy uses 3 plugs - one for power and 2 for lighting (one small pin and a slightly larger pin)
There IS one unit in the kitchen which covers all three sizes. But check your appliances before leaving home. Adapters are available at most supermarkets.
THIS WAS THE MOST WONDERFUL PLACE TO STAY, Grazie Tanti famiglia Cuomo.
