Excellent base for sightseeing and relaxing
Submitted: December 28, 2008
Stayed: April 2008
We spent a week at Il Bosco during the summer and found it to be well equipped and very central in the region which made day trips easy to lots of places. San Daniele, famous for its ham is a must as too is Venzone, a walled city to the north. There is so much to see in this beautiful alpine area. A place we will visit again.

A truly wonderful and relaxing holiday
Submitted: October 13, 2010
Stayed: September 2010
We have spent another glorious fortnight at 'Il Bosco' and fully intend to return for another holiday soon! This is a wonderful, relaxing and beautiful place to stay, in one of the most unspoilt and pretty regions of Italy. We love it here and have even made plans to buy a property in FVG, in the not too distant future! 'Il Bosco' is lovely - set in a perfectly quiet spot off the long and winding road up to Monte Prat. All you hear, while sat on the lovely, well equipped terrace, are the sounds of nature (crickets, buzzards etc) and the occasional (very quiet) peal of church bells. Inside, 'Il Bosco' is very well equipped - lovely big kitchen and comfortable lounge with a fantastic wood burner to enjoy in the evenings! The bedrooms are spacious and there's plenty of wardrobe/drawer space too. The en -suite shower is very good (hot and powerful) and the beds really comfortable.
Places we visited again this year were Spilimbergo (lovely restaurants, and a famous mosaic town); Udine (great food festival in mid Sept), San Daniele (for the catherdral, bell-tower, and of course the local prosciutto! and Tolmezzo (almost at the border with Austria and a lovely town with great restaurants, shops and bars).
June (the owner) is lovely and will give you lots of tips on great places to visit, and is always pleasant and happy to help.

Unspoilt Beautiful Italy
Submitted: September 20, 2010
Stayed: August 2010
We had a fantastic week at Il Bosco this August, and truly relaxed in what is a fabulous unspoilt part of Italy. The house is in a wonderful location and is great for exploring the local area and wider.
Among our favourites were Venzone, Splimbergo and Palmanova. Small local towns with wonderful Italian atmospheres. Of the bigger places we enjoyed Udine, and Pedonone, and we were ambitious enough to head to Venice for the day where we will certainly be returning next year; a truly magical city.
The house itself was comfortable and well equipped,and by far our favourite bit about it was breakfast time on the terrace looking out into the green meadow with the only sounds being the nature and faint church bells in the distance.
We would fully recommend a stay at Il Bosco, and you will get a great taste of what is a wonderful unspoilt part of Italy.

Just back from a very enjoyable week at Il Bosco. We found the "gite" was well-equipped and the website description accurate. The elevation
means that you are away from the heat of the valley - the road up to Monte Prat has hairpin bends but it is well-graded and maintained.
Places that we enjoyed visiting included:
1. The shop of San Daniele producer Dok (on the outskirts of the town) which also has a Restaurant which was packed
2. Cividale del Friuli which was setting up for the Palio di San Donato.
3. Udine - frescoes by Tiepolo and a lovely city just to stroll around.
4. Aquileia - major Roman port and stunning mosaics in the Basilica.
Our visit to Villa Manin was de-railed by an Iron Maiden concert!
