United KingdomThe location was simply beautiful as is the house, done up to very good specs in a traditional way. The owner is a delight, friendly, perceptive, helpful and generous with the most delicious cakes her mother, a professional chef, makes from traditional recipes. The location was peaceful on the river by a renaissance arch into the lovely old village of Mercatello with shops, bars and restaurants. The countryside is beautiful, beside the house is a little chapel and a path to a waterfall where you can take a dip or walk on into the wonderful mountains and historic castles further up the valley. The house is very spacious and the large riverside entertainment room must be deliciously cool in summer. It is well equipped with beds and bedding. The riverside terrace is built right into the great arches of the old Roman bridge.
