"Dear Elizabeth

Hello again...just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the last few weeks at Casa d'Oliva. Your home in Italy  is very comfortable and welcoming. The weather was also very good and, of course, what a wonderful location.

So what did we love....pretty much everything!

- the views, the solitude and the magnificent sunsets

- the way in which the house is laid out, the rustic yet comfortable feel, the way it's cool inside without air conditioning

- the quantity and quality of the furniture, including outside, is excellent and gave us lots of places to relax

- the beds are extremely comfortable and the mosquito nets give an exotic but practical touch

- the kitchen is very well equipped and it's really useful that remnants from earlier visitors are kept so that we didn't have to buy everything                

- your eclectic and excellent stock of books kept us all occupied once we'd read the ones we brought

- the house feels like a real home with all the pictures and trinkets

- it was good to find drawers like ours with all the useful bits and pieces that are sometimes needed

- the board games

- the folders with info on the locality and the map were great and made it much easier to work out what to do and where to go

- outside the big garden, plant pots and pool are very well maintained

- as a poor swimmer I appreciated the large shallow end, easy step access, ledge around the deep end and non-slip bottom

- the wildlife was fascinating

- Tricia (your greeter) was very friendly and helpful .....as were the maid, pool man and gardener
