Mansion in medieval town with castle on Bolsena lake

We enjoyed the location of the house very much. It is nearby the lake and all commodities. Communication with Adele was very smooth, she was always available to answer our questions. Thank you!

Do you want something different? something cozy? Something unexpected? Something absolutely lovely? Me and my two daughters stayed for a week in this accommodation. The place is absolutely lovely. It felt like the owner just left and you step into a cozy house with all kind of cure furniture and decoration. That might be a little weird at the beginning, but if you embrace it your feel home really quick. The location is absolutely fantastic. In the middle of Bolsena. Supermarket next door, a nice square with an espresso bar for your morning coffee and the lovely medieval town of Bolsena as your backyard. And the walk to the lake is easy an beautiful as well. The hostess communicates really well. The minute I had booked she sent me all the details for my stay including recommendations for places to eat and drink. Also during my stay, she kindly informed if all went well. It was such nice week at a lovely location. Such a location that make you wanting to stay and live in Italy forever.

We throughly enjoyed our week holiday in this house built into the walls of the medieval town of Bolsena. Every thing was close at hand including more restaurants than we could eat in, a small supermarket, and other shops within a stonethrow. The bed was comfortable and an open log fire warmed us as we were out of season. It did not have wifi but it was no problem as you can piggyback on any of the restaurants. I would thoroughly recommend it to any couple looking to explore this interesting part of Italy. The only downside is that I would not recommend it to anyone not good on their feet as the stairs are steep, shiny wood and open at one side but that should be no problem for anyone wanting to go to old, fortified hilltop towns.

We spent 12 days in Bolsena and the apartment was very nice, there is everything (!) you need. Also Adele was flexible with our dates as we wanted spontaneously to stay 2 days longer. And we had a detailed nstruction by Adele and her husband when we arrived in Bolsena. We came there with a baby, so for us all the decoration was a bit problematic because we had to move everything and didn't have enough space for our own stuff. Anyways, we would recommend this apartment (ad its great fire place), thank you very much!

We had a great holiday in Bolsena. Adele was really helpful and very friendly. An ideal holiday home with easy access to resturants shops and the market.

Nice little aparment in the heart of Bolsena, in an authentic old building, with a bathroom, shower and a really nice terrace for breakfast etc. The location of the apartment is really good, there is just everything nearby, a supermarket for supplies as well as a butcher's shop, a fishmonger and even a hairdresser, this can't be better. Negative points in our opinion are the moldy/smoky smell in the basement which we did'nt use anyway, and the fact that there is not much room for personal things, the wardrobe is already stuffed with everything useful and not so useful, and so are the shelves etc. in the bathroom - a bit less decoration would be good here. All in all it was a nice holiday in the apartment and in Bolsena.

A beautiful house with everything in it! Furnished with love. The owners gave us a very warm welcome! The house is perfectly located in the old centre of Bolsena. Cosy cafe's restaurants, shops, cultural highligts (castle, chruch, art galeries etc.) are all arround the corner. The lake, a ten minutes walk, is beautiful and very nice to swim in (the water was warm). We enjoyed a full three weeks in this surrounding and it was wonderful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Bolsena where we spent a week in this cosy, two-storey house. The owners, Adele and Massimo, were charming, discreet and very kind to us. They went out of their way to help us settle in, and were extremely helpful. The location, right in the middle of the medieval part of the town, is excellent: food shops, restaurants, the lake itself and places of historic interest, all within walking distance. It's an ideal base for trips to explore the beautiful surrounding countryside and hill towns by car or on a bike. The beds are very comfortable, the bathroom has a shower with plenty of hot water, towels and bath robes, and the kitchen, well-equipped, opens out onto a terrace made for prolonged, lazy breakfasts! All in all, a delightful, relaxing holiday!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 1 week stay at Bolsena in this charming house, we stayed May 2015. We were met by Massimo who explained everything and he also kindly took us for a short tour to point out the restaurants and bars, parking etc. We found the house to be very well equipped, clean and comfortable, it felt very homely and we enjoyed eating some of our meals and reading books, relaxing outside on the terrace. Our son travelled from Rome to stay one weekend and we picked him up from Orvieto train station, just 15 minutes away from the house by car. The train journey to Rome is 1 hour, so perfect if you wanted to spend a day in the capital. We enjoyed being in Bolsena, never having been here before, I have to admit we were surprised at how beautiful it is and the surrounding countryside and hill towns are also stunning. We spent one morning walking part of the Francigene Way and heard cuckoos calling in the woods. Magic. The neighbours always thoughtfully asked if everything was OK if we bumped into them outside the house. We ate like kings that week: our menu ranged from delicious porchetta panninis purchased for lunch from just across the road, fresh water fish from the lake at lakeside restaurant, Sunday lunch was at the osteria/bookshop behind the house, the Tanaquilla restaurant is well worth a visit, scrummy, and in between times we did our own meals buying local delicacies from the supermarket nearby and the alimentari. The house is perfectly situated in the centre of Bolsena so you can experience Italian life as a local and not have far to walk home at the end of an evening! Thank you Adele and Massimo for helping to make our holiday a good one, hope to be back

The apartments were really great - it was clean, looks good, has lot of fancy things in it which makes it feel like in own home. It also has everything you need for your stay. Owner was really kind and explained everything and showed apartments, informed about best places in area and even suggested tours around. Also Bolsena as a place is great for lazy relaxation or as a central point for tours to discover Umbria, Lacio and Tuscany regions.
