The property is a converted barn that has been restored very tastefully and to a very high standard. We were slightly disappointed that the overall 'minimalist' style meant that some of the basics were missing (limited storage space, no full size dinner plates, no kettle, no tin opener) but Francoise and Giacomo immediately accommodated our additional requests. It would also have enhanced our stay if some of the basics for cooking were provided (some other properties that we've stayed in have been well provisioned with basics such as herbs, seasoning and cooking oil, and it's a welcome addition when travelling abroad). But this is just a suggestion of what could be added - lack of salt and pepper certainly didn't detract at all from our stay! The property is in a beautiful location, well-placed for walking and visiting the surrounding area, and the pool was an added luxury to enjoy. We felt slightly overlooked when using the pool, as it beneath the front of the owners' house, but the owners took care to ensure we had the pool to ourselves whenever we wanted to use it. For those wanting somewhere completely private and quiet, you may find the proximity to the owners' house, and the occasional little bit of noise from their two small children distracting, but only something to bear in mind if complete solitude is what you're after; the peaceful rural location and access to private sitting areas in front of the property offer plenty of opportunity for quiet contemplation, and enjoyment of flocks of bee-eaters using the valley below. We took advantage of Francoise's culinary skills on one evening and enjoyed a wonderfully delicious meal, mostly comprising fresh organic produce from their own garden - highly recommended. Overall, it's a very lovely property in a wonderful location, with welcoming owners who are keen to let you experience their organic and eco-friendly lifestyle.
