Col di Casale, Umbria August 2010
"Merrion listened to our requirements and we felt we had a very personalised holiday to meet the needs of our family. The house and location were stunning and definately the most impressive place we have stayed to date, having stayed in some amazing places through her competitors. Every need was met, we had a well stocked fridge upon our arrival and Thomas, the property manager, even suggested we did not cook on the first night, on a public holiday and with everything closed he still managed to bring up a freshly prepared two course meal and wine for dinner. The house and pool were spotless. We had a chef, Barbara cook for us for two nights during our stay and the food was superb. Highly recommend the Col di Casale if you are looking for tranquility and luxury… we had an amazing time and very much look forward to booking our next holiday through you."
