Great food, Great wine, Great weather and Lots of Culture. A PERFECT holiday!
Everything has been thought of, a perfect villa for 3 couples of varying ages with different activity levels. LOVED our week!
Thanks Deborah for the wonderful cakes, and to both Deborah & Louie together for making our stay so memorable. We will be back I am sure.

What a wonderful place for a family vacation! We so enjoyed exploring the hill towns during the morning and returning for an afternoon swim. Louie and Deborah are wonderful hosts and we appreciated so much the home-baked surprises. The pool was a perfect place for us to relax with our kids, and the spectacular sunsets and surprises were just another bonus.

What a wonderful week we have had. The hospitality of Louie and Deborah exceeded all expectations. We enjoyed all their recommendations and enjoyed exploring the area. The kids loved the pool and always looked forward to a swim after touring the beautiful Umbrian towns.

We’ve had a fabulous week in your beautiful home - wonderful towns to explore in the area but we also recommend the rafting and tubing at Arrone. Thank you so much for your hospitality - you have really thought of everything to make a week here so relaxing and enjoyable!

Deborah & Louie,
Thank you so much for hosting our week, our most memorable week, at Il Casale di Mele. The website photos are beautiful, but when you arrive you realize quickly that your expectations have been exceeded. We sincerely appreciated your sharing the Umbrian experience - from the TomTom programming to the pool-side conversations- not to forget the unbelievable wine tasting and delectable appetizer evening. Thanks for your company, the fantastic weather, and most importantly, thanks for making this such an enjoyable and memorable holiday week!

What an unforgettable experience! ~ the house, the views, the countryside. It was all we wanted and more than we expected. Deborah and Louie, you make your guests feel as if they are living next to their best friends. Thank you for your hospitality and wonderful treats. You went beyond the “norm”. We are so glad we stumbled upon your website.
Grazie mille,

Dear Deborah and Louie,
No photographs or description of your home compare to the moment we walked into your farmhouse for the first time and realized that your home surpassed our expectations. The little “extras” like the gift basket and baked goods made us immediately very comfortable in your home and beautiful surroundings. Your generous hospitality including your tips for the area and the GPS helped us to find some of the many treasures in Umbria. We loved the markets, and our favorite towns were Todi, Orvieto, Montefalco, and Spoleto. We only wish we had more time to explore!
We hope to some day return to Il Casale di Mele

Deborah and Louie,
I have been dreaming and planning this trip for a year - from the moment you let me know you had purchased a farmhouse that you were going to rent - and in my most vivid dreams - they couldn’t compare to the real experience. It was truly the most wonderful vacation Dewey or I have ever had. Your wonderful treats were over the top. I hope we get to come back next year.
Regards,

An adventure that will not be soon forgotten. So beautiful and picturesque and hosts that anticipated every need including delicious Italian food that I would walk a mountain for! If we never pass this way again, we will have treasured memories to last the rest of our lives.
Thank you so much!

Grazie Deborah & Louie!
The house, the view…..WOW! Thank you for sharing your house with us, it was a wonder stay. At first thought our vacation would be too long and all of a sudden it became too short. The house is lovely, the goodies provided by Deborah just a great touch! We will be back!
