Overall:
Truly amazing time had be all - the property itself (walks, pool, lawn, animals) through to the facilities - bedrooms, bathrooms, eating areas (inside and outside) - with 7 families - 14 adults and 21 kids no one could think of a better place to enjoy the real Italian countryside experience. We could not have been looked after better by the caretakers and the local chefs brought in for the dinners were world class.
Enjoyed Most:
All aspects - truly unique property at all levels.
Enjoyed Least:
Wouldn't be appropriate to suggest anything negative about the property - the experience was amazing and every family who stayed would return in a heartbeat
Surrounding Area:
Proximity to great towns - Gubbio, Assisi, but still wanted to spend equal time at the castle itself - perfect balance.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Carbonesca - yes, 3km.
Tips or Restaurants:
Eat in at the castle and get them to utilize Gianni and his wife - fantastic cooks. Gubbio is a great town well worth multiple visits.
Directions:
Two points on the directions - the gate is blue, not green, and it should be noted that once you turn into the blue gate before the soccer field, you then follow the road 2km to the castle - other than that directions are spot on.
Check In Out:
Worked like clockwork - no problems.

Carbonesca was about a 30 min walk.
