Price Match
We had a really lovely time at Podere dei Venti. There was plenty of space for us all and we had lots of fun trying out the Pizza oven. The keyholder was very helpful, providing us with detailed recommendations for places to buy groceries and places to visit nearby. The only reason I am giving the property a 4 star rating rather than 5 is because there was not a dishwasher, washing machine or indoor oven (except for stove-top hobs), which I had not realised at the point of booking. The kitchen equipment was fairly limited (no kettle or good sharp knives) and though we were able to make do with what was there it did make cooking slightly more difficult than it is when at home! Many thanks though.. we had a wonderful week and would certainly return!
