CASTLE RENTAL - SPA-LIKE, POOL, SAUNA, THREE JACUZZI'S. VIEWS & CHARM

Siince I am in the lodging business I aways say those guests that have a bad time are the ones that always have time to write 'reviews'. Since our stay at Palazzo Massarucci was perfect, I have to let you know how very special this place is. For our celebration, with 16 of us meeting from different parts of the world, it could not have been better. Great accommodations, nicely furnished, remote location, and the staff could not have been more helpful. Wifi was a bit sketchy but fun to watch as guests huddled in the early morning to check emails.........but soon expressed there was really no point. We had all we needed. La Fontana catered 6 dinners for us that where exceptional, and the food kept coming, delivered to the table. Fresh and expressed so much of the local flavors. We are all talking about a return trip! Can hardly wait.

We just enjoyed a superb holiday in this wonderfully restored old castle. The new fittings are modern and comfortable while respecting the antiquity. The owner was very helpful as was her staff who settled us in and then left us to our privacy. It was a cold April but the castle was cozy and comfortable. We found it perfectly located away from hustle and bustle but near enough to enjoy many day tours. The restaurant, La Fontana, just below the castle was sublime with homemade pastas, good wines and delightful servers. We had children of all ages and they enjoyed all the nooks and crannies of the castle as well as the beautiful gardens and surrounding forests and trails. We plan to return in the summer months soon and we highly recommend it to all travelers. Five stars to be sure!!!

Pallazzo Massarucci is incredible. My wife and I stayed there for a few weeks in March 2007. It’s an enormous place with large rooms, but very cosy at the same time. It was still too cold to use the outdoor pool so we had to “settle for” the sauna and nights around the fireplaces. And there’s plenty to do around the area. We ended up many afternoons just wandering around the hillsides. It’s an historic building but recently, and lovingly renovated with all modern conveniences. We can’t recommend the place enough. And the nearby restaurant has delicious, real, local food. A great deal for what you get. CindyHave just returned from a stay in this sensitively refurbished large old palazzo, beautifully restored without loss of authenticity or character, very comfortably furnished and fully equipped with everything one could possibly want. Very clean, and prompt service on hand for any problems. Wonderful grounds, with good size pool, covered dining area, fire pit for barbecues and grassed area. Fantastic all-round unspoiled views, extremely quiet and peaceful -- and very friendly village. Ideal for a getaway -- but not too remote for a large choice of more local sightseeing or a day trip to Rome, or just hill walking but we were far too relaxed to attempt that. Ideal for large groups or families -- we were ten adults and ten children; perfect location and accommodation. Highly recommended. Tony
