Mystery villa

We got off to a bad start as it took me an hour to find the house. The name of the villa is not shown on any signpost or gatepost. We called at the villa next door and the had never heard of Villa Elisa. We asked various locals who were walking in the area but received only blank looks. We did not realise that it was part of Villa Salcotto - fortunately my son turned up and his google map led us to our destination. We received a very warm welcome from the owner and a guided tour of the property and grounds. The grounds and pool were very impressive. The accommodation was tested to the limit as the temperature during our stay was mid thirties to forty and we were plagued by mosquitoes. Our only complaint would be the lack of air-conditioning in most rooms. A problem with the dishwasher caused an upset as the owner did not want us to contact the agency - although there was a sign up in kitchen telling us to do so and our lack of Italian combined with her lack of English could not have resolved the problem. We had a wonderful week at Villa Elisa and little things such as bus timetables to Cortona, names of local taxi firms, recommended local restaurants would have been very useful. It is about a 20 minute walk to Camucia which has a number of very good restaurants and bars. The views of Cortona from the pool are spectacular as are the woodpeckers and hoopoe in the grounds. As light upgrading of air-conditioning and mosquito repellents would have given us the perfect holiday

Grand old property in the valley below Cortona

The property is a grand old farm with loads of both indoor and outdoor space and charm, a fabulous pool looking up on Cortona and with all the conveniences, however it seems a bit past it’s prime and in serious need of some updating in the house- especially the beds which were quite old and uncomfortable. There were several kitchens but the main one was in serious need of updating. The dishwasher for example was old and held together with tape. We were even charged 6 € per wash to use an old clothes washer. In all our many, many vrbo rentals we have never been charged to use the washer. There was also a 750€ deposit in cash and a 250€ cleaning fee, both of which along with the 6 € washer fee we only found out about after booking and paying Posarelli, which is disapointing. As I said we have rented many, many times and never had such high extra charges. The gardens are lovely and it is very private. One section with 3+ bedrooms has air conditioned bedrooms which is greatly appreciated in summer, but a second seperate section is not air conditioned.we were 6 adults (3couples) so we only used the air conditioned section yet we were chharged for the entire place even though we locked up and never used one entire section. The house is crammed full of antiques and objects ( perhaps partly explaining the 750€ Deposit,) but it made it seem very cluttered. The owner did take 50€ off the cleaning fee but it was still outrageously high. Beautifull, but in need of updating and too expensive for what it offered.

Alte Villa mit großem Grundstück und sehr schönem pool

Das Grundstück ist riesig und es gibt viele Sitzmöglichkeiten direkt am Haus, im weitläufigen Garten und am Pool. Das Haus ist eine alte Villa mit tollen alten möbeln und genügend Platz für alle, auch genügend Bäder und Raum zum Rückzug. Die Lage unterhalb von Cortona ist perfekt und Cortona ein schönes altes Städtchen zum bummeln und essen gehen. Auch der Lago di trasimeno ist schnell zu erreichen mit perfektem Strand auch für kleine Kinder.
