Review Details:
We spent a fabulous 8 days at Villa Bertagni (despite being somewhat unlucky with the weather). The villa itself is very stylish. Not underfurnished like so many - and with a good number of really really nice antique pieces. The owner used to be in the fashion industry and his sense of style comes through. The central hall area that looks so grand on the photo is indeed beautiful - though a little smaller that it looks in the photos. This is no bad thing - instead of being an echo-ey entrance area, it is furnished with 3 large (nice) sofas and a grand piano making it a really nice place to sit/read. The rooms on the first floor are Ok sized - not huge but nicely done. The 2 rooms on the top floor are bigger - we didn't used them but we suspect they may get a little hot at night. Bathrooms all excellent.
The pool and grounds are excellent. Good size pool, surrounded by mountains - very quiet you could be miles from anywhere. This is a cool trick as the property is in fact pretty close to the town which has a good selection of restaurants/delis and a couple of supermarkets.
Deiter (the owner) lives in a separate building within the grounds. We thought this might be a negative as you are not totally on your own. In fact he is very charming and welcoming but keeps out of your hair. It was also nice to have some support on site if needed.
Overall - ery good. A place you may just fall in love with!
