We especially loved the pool, comfortable furnishing, beautiful view and most of all the hammock!
The nearby restaurant was fantastic (down the hill)!

"The villa is set in a beautiful and quiet setting in the hills of Umbria, short ten minute drive to the nearest town that provided all services.
It was lovely to meet the owners of the villa we rented, they were very kind and welcoming.
Home in Italy has provided a Courteous and prompt service! Our booking process went well and the villa was even more beautiful than what we expected! The concierge service was friendly and quick to meet our requests. Would highly recommend Home in Italy! Thank you for excellent services!"

"The experience, the villa, as well as the trip as a whole, far exceeded our expectations.
Villa Ada was perfect for our extended family and was much nicer than we had expected.
The homeowners were wonderful. They were very welcoming and proand provided an excellent orientation to the home. We enjoyed meeting them as they were as gracious and accommodating as could be.
We really enjoyed Ristorante Calagrana located at the bottom our driveway. The owners/chef were extremely nice, the food was outstanding! The service was excellent! We had dinner there twice and these were some of our favorite meals.
We visited Umbertide, Gubbio and Cortona. Gubbio and Cortona are two very unique towns and both a must see if staying at Ada. Umbertide was convenient for gelato, church and had a lovely river walk which we enjoyed.
We used the car service for transportation to the airport in Rome for our children but another guest took the train from Cortona and that worked out very well (as long as flight is later in day).
As you can see, we can't say enough about how great everything went.
The Villa was amazing! Can't say enough about the professionalism and responsiveness of the entire staff at Home In Italy. Our concierge Rachele was extremely helpful and patient when we called and emailed her with our numerous requests and questions.
We appreciate your assistance. The service was excellent. You were recommended by a good friend who has used your company in the past and we will certainly recommend you to others, as well as be calling you again when we are ready for our next trip to Italy. We would like to thank you and your team for helping us have a truly spectacular family vacation. You could not have done any more and we are all very appreciative of working with and getting to know you. A+ all the way."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Ada. We found both houses to be equally inviting with comfortable beds, nice linens, well stocked kitchens and typical Italian decor. The garden and pool area were nicely landscaped and very well tended, the villa offers majestic views. The Home in Italy concierge staff was extremely helpful, as was Sonia at the nearby tennis court. We would definitely recommend this property."

"Villa Ada is superb, from the twin standpoints of its accommodations, equally the main villa and the guest house, and its location. This property has been restored exceptionally well, with excellent taste in conveniences, appointments and furnishings. The bedrooms are spacious, more than sufficient, and the main bathrooms are lovely, large and convenient (the smaller bathrooms are a little tight). The two houses feel genuinely Italian, appropriately modernized, and are very comfortable, good for mixed groups and families, with plenty of opportunity for both togetherness and privacy. The grounds and the views are extraordinary. Working with the Home In Italy staff (first Daniela, then Rachele and Elena) was a great pleasure; I felt as though they were my agents, my hosts and my friends. While there were minor, short-lived difficulties with the heat and hot water (one day in the guest house), and the TVs did not work at first due to a storm that knocked-out the satellite service, Rachele managed the attention we received from Elio (the groundskeeper) and outside technicians professionally and with great care. We could not have asked for better attention to all the details. I will not hesitate to call Home In Italy again the next time a trip to Italy would be served well by the rental of a superb villa, according to these high standards."

"The Villa Ada is a beautiful Villa located high in the hills of Umbertide, Province of Perugia, Italy. The location is remote and you will need to rent a car to provide access to any of the small towns surrounding the villa. The Villa consists of the farmhouse and guest house. Both properties are beautifully decorated and have all the amenities needed, including hair dryers, washing machines, and refrigerators with ice makers. We rented this property for one week after spending time in Sant'angelo and Rome. It was a lovely way to wind down and explore the small towns of Italy and get a real taste of this beautiful country."

- well appointed, well furnished with multiple seating area's indoor and outdoor, in shade and in the sun, as required
- surrounded by established and well cared for gardens
- ideal for large groups in that there are 7 bedrooms and all bedrooms are comfortable
- the beds are very comfortable and the linen and towels clean and in good condition. We could not fault the Villa in any way and would be delighted to return to the property."

"After deciding to elope to Italy, I started a 6 month search for the perfect villa. I was looking for the perfect blend of traditional with modern conveniences. Cleanliness and breathtaking vistas a must! Once I connected with Rachele ~ the concierge, the arrangements for the accommodations had the utmost attention. The pictures did not do the villa justice ~ they were beautiful, but could not prepare me for this remarkable villa. The vista views were from high on the mountain overlooking the valley. The grounds were impeccable and loaded with flowers and olive trees (even poppy fields nearby)! I loved waking up to the animals and birds ~ wishing me a good morning. Upon arriving at the villa, I had the pleasure of meeting the owners ~ we talked for hours, ensuring all our accommodations were to our liking! All was perfect!"

"Villa Ada was the venue for our wedding in May 2016 and could not have been more perfect. There was a villa for our family and the guest house for friends with plenty of space for people to be with each other and spend time alone as well. The pool, although very very cold in early May, was too inviting to ignore and became a space for relaxation. The inside space was as fabulous as the outside which was great because the weather wasn't ideal for outdoor weddings! We still had our first dance under the pergola on the terrace though! The villa felt luxurious and cosy as well as beautifully open to the landscape which we could not drag our eyes from. Home in Italy staff were great giving me lots of advice to help with the wedding and giving me the contact for my wedding planner. When we had some issues with hot water, a solution was found really easily and quickly. Home in Italy also booked us on a wine tasting trip which was amazing! We felt looked after throughout. We can't wait to come back! Are you open at Christmas???"

"Hi Rachel,
first of all sorry for taking a while but as i arrived back in Germany many jobs were waiting.
So busy in this autumn but now I take the time to give you my feedback.
The location Villa Ada was just great for our production. Even if the weather was kind of tricky (mornings full of fog) we did manage to shoot all what was planned.
For our next time we just have to talk about the heating system ;-) We didn`t expect this cold but it worked out well in the end.
Thank you very very much for your support during our stay. You did an excellent job and me and my team where very happy to have you „behind“ us.
Looking forward for the coming projects in autumn and hope to get back to your sweet portal as soon as possible."

"I'm happy to give my feedback, which is mostly positive.
Villa Ada is a beautiful, gracious home. It has been beautifully renovated, designed and landscaped, and was a perfect place for three couples to stay.
I particularly want to commend and thank Chiara, who was available to me at all times for many small problems, and who was always quick to offer a solution. She really made the trip more pleasant.
I am back in New York now, but part of me is still sitting on the patio, looking at the beautiful, peaceful view."
