Manor house / Historic house in downtown Montefiascone-Lake Bolsena

In the heart of historic Montefiascone with views of Lake Bolsena, beautiful sky-ground building dating back to 1200. Renovated in full respect of its building style.
Large living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and ironing room, total area of ​​about 110 square meters.
The building retains its charm due to the enhancement of the original elements, like the ancient oak beams of the floor of the living room, and the great journey period.

Lots of Rustic Character - Great Location with Views - Cozy
The property was lovely and comfortable. The location was ideal for exploring the town of Montefiascone and the area. It was perfectly quiet at night, even though it’s located adjacent to a little piazza. The WiFi was also flawless and provided a great place to get some work done, too. Having a washing machine was great! A few concerns: I was surprised that only one roll of toilet paper was supplied, so I had to buy more. I was provided with a very specific schedule of when to put out trash and recyclables but no extra bags were provided for when they were emptied. Only one bed had sheets and pillowcases even though I told the caretaker that my cousin and I were staying; it was why I booked a two-bedroom house, so that we would not sleep in the same bed. The caretaker told me that it was my fault for not specifying to make up two beds. Overall, everything was great and I would stay again. However, Luca was not there so I dealt with someone else who seemed to become defensive or annoyed whenever I asked a question, so I quit asking questions. I didn’t dare ask about toilet paper or extra trash bags. He reminded me about three times that check out time was at 10:00 a.m. I loved the place but didn’t really feel very welcome. It seemed different from what I had read about other guests’ experiences with Luca’s hospitality.

Gerne wieder!
Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt in dem kleinen Stadthaus. Die Lage im Altstadtkern ist einmalig. Der Ausblick von der Rückseite des Hauses auf den Lago di Bolsena ist umwerfend. Restaurants und Lebensmittelläden sind in Fussweite. Montefiascone ist ein guter Ausgangsort für Ausflüge in die Umgebung (Viterbo, Orvieto, Etruskische Ausgrabungen in Vulci oder Norchia, uvm, ...). Montefiascone wirkte auf uns nicht zu touristisch, was uns sehr gefallen hat. Wir waren in der Nachsaison (die ersten beiden Oktoberwochen) da und zu Coronazeiten. Darum waren überwiegend Einheimische in den Restaurants anzutreffen, was aber immer ein gutes Zeichen ist. Wenn man dann noch etwas Italienisch spricht, ist "das Eis schnell gebrochen". Kurz: Für uns war es ein Traumurlaub in einer wunderbaren Region; mit einer Unterkunft, die alles bietet, was man braucht. Sogar eine gut funktionierende Gasheizung, wenn die Temperaturen nach einem Wetterumschwung fallen.

Historic house in picturesque village
I spent a week in this lovely house. Perfectly situated in the center of the village, near cafes and restaurants run by charming people. Kitchen was ample for preparing breakfast and light meals. Convenient parking and easy access to roads leading to Tuscany, Umbria, and Rome. Easy day trips to Orvieto, Montepulciano, Spoleto, Todi, even Perugia. Luca/host was responsive to emails and phone calls, but also respected our privacy. I would stay here again.

Great location, charming authentic experience
You couldn’t find a better location in Montefiascone. Walk to shops, restaurants, museum & gardens. The house is cozy and charming. We had a bit of trouble with the front door lock but Luca came promptly and took care of it. My favorite nook was the window seat - sat there each evening with a glass of wine and soaked up the gorgeous view!

Lovely old house, basic but cosy and comfortable
This house was everything we hoped it would be, so full of character and history. Unfortunately Luca the owner was not able to meet us when we arrived as he was working but he was very helpful in assisting us to locate the free parking via email. Be warned, the house is not luxurious but what it is is beautiful and great value for money. It is very cosy and there is lots of hot water, a washing machine and everything you need in the kitchen to make a meal. The only gripe we have is that the fridge was switched off when we arrived and was putrid with green mould and what appeared to be spilt milk which had gone off. This was easily cleaned however and did not detract from the wonderful experience we had. Thankyou so much Luca for allowing us to stay in you wonderful home. PS. Make sure you make contact with the local winery ‘ Antica Cantina Leonardi’ to arrange a wine tasting evening meal and tour of the cellars. Absolutely amazing wine, food and people and only a few minutes walk from the house.

Sehr ursprünglich
Wir waren im Mai für 10 Tage in dem Haus. Es war wirklich sehr ursprünglich. Wenn man in so einem alten Haus wohnen mőchte, ist es genau das richtige. Strategisch optimal, man kann alles Notwendige zu Fuß erreichen. Auch die Parkplatzsituation war sehr gut, wenn man von den Ausflügen ins wunderschőne Latium zurűckkommt. Was uns allerdings gestőrt hat, war dass das Haus zu dieser Jahreszeit sehr klamm und die Betten feucht waren. Luca ist super nett und äußerst hilfsbereit. Gesamte Abwicklung sehr unkompliziert.

Für einen Kurzurlaub OK
Das Haus an sich ist sehr schön, Einrichtung aber eher rustikal und auch schon recht abgenutzt. Die Türen zu den Schlafzimmern und dem Bad im 1. Stock waren nur mit einigem Kraftaufwand zu öffnen und zu schließen. Die müssten mal nachjustiert werden. Auch das Bad könnte eine Renovierung vertragen (Badewanne/Dusche nur mit altem Duschvorhang). Der Ort an sich ist eher etwas trist. Die Aussicht auf den See entschädigt dafür aber. Als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in die nähere Umgebung ist die Lage auch sehr gut. Auch der Kontakt mit Luca (dem Vermieter) war sehr nett und angenehm.

Haus mit Geschichte in der Altstadt
Schöne Unterkunft im Herzen des Ortes. Ich war im März in Montefiascone. Das Wetter war sehr durchwachsen. Die Wohnung wird mit einem Pelletofen beheizt. Das ging ganz gut. Nur im oberen Stockwerk war es frisch. Das hat mir nicht so viel ausgemacht, ein Aufenthalt mit kleinen Kindern würde ich aber nicht empfehlen. Das Haus hat alles, was braucht. Die Austattung, auch in der Küche, kann mit der zuhause mithalten. Die Atmosphäre in dem alten Gebäude ist einzigartig. Das WLAN war leider in den Daten begrenzt, so dass es für mich kaum nutzbar war. Die Lage von Montefiascone eignet sich sehr gut, um Viterbo und Orvieto, Etruskerstätten oder den See zu erkunden. Insgesamt empfehlenswert und vier Sterne.

Nice little house in a sweet little village
After a tedious arrival by car. (there was a festival in the village & many of the roads were blocked so it took us a while to figure out) Greeted warmly by Luca and his lovely wife. Parking was a bit difficult, but they figured it out for us. Once the festival was over it was fine. The home is quite spacious and fairly well provisioned. (no microwave) It was a bit musty smelling, but being 500 years old is not surprising. Nothing that open windows and fresh air didn't fix. One caution, the staircase is stone, very steep and worn. Tough for kids or older folks. Location is great. Great value! Make time to visit Civita Bagnoreggio - fabulous!

A return to Montefiascone and the Manor House
two years ago we first visited Montefiscone for a stay in this beautiful property and to explore the many attractions offered within this town and its surrounds. This part of Lazio is well worth visiting and to this end a visit the tourist office close to the Manor House would be worthwhile. The house however was a star attraction and one of the best properties we have enjoyed in the twenty years we have been visiting Italy, so much so that we returned again this year. Our thanks to Simone and his brothers for the co-operation and attention extended

Wunderbar!
Wir haben unseren (leider nur 3-tägigen) Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus hat extrem viel Flair (Holzbalkendecken, Steinboden,...) und es ist etwas ganz Besonders im Herzen einer so schönen historischen Städt zu wohnen. Herrlicher Ausblick auf den Bolsenasee! Sowohl unsere Kinder als auch wir waren wirklich sehr angetan von dieser wunderbaren Unterkunft. Wir kommen sicher wieder!

Mitten in Montefiascone
Die Ferienwohnung -es ist eher ein kleines Häuschen- mitten in Montefiascone mit einem tollen Blick auf den Bolsenasee liegt an einem kleinen idyllischen Platz und ermöglicht Restaurantbesuche (Pizzaria Roma!), Bummeln und kleinere Ausflüge (Rocca dei Papi) fussläufig. Die Vermieter -drei Brüder- sind sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich- und sprechen Englisch. Das Haus entspricht sehr genau der Beschreibung, ist gepflegt und sauber. Die Betten waren sehr bequem. Das leicht mittelalterliche Flair hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Montefiascone ist unsere Lieblingsstadt am Lago di Bolsena - es hat einen wunderbaren Charme, ist authentisch, lebhaft und liebenswert. Zum Strand fährt man einige Minuten mit dem Auto. Parkplätze waren oberhalb des Hauses gut zu erreichen. Für unsere 5-köpfige Familie war ausreichen Platz und der 3jährige konnte mit der steilen Treppe bereits gut umgehen. Ebenfalls fussläufig zu erreichen ist die Turisteninformation, die über Naturparks, Sehenswürdigkeiten, Sportmöglichkeiten, heiße Schwefelquellen etc. informiert. Während des Weinfestes (2 Wochen im August) gibt es neben vielen Weinständen und -proben Livemusik an jeder Ecke, mittelalterliche Musik und Prozessionen und diverse Stände an verschiedenen Stellen des Städtchens. Es war wunderbar und wir können das Häuschen uneingeschränkt empfehlen!

The hub for your next vacation!
Dear all, I've also had the pleasure of visiting this pleasant historic house. My stay was beautiful indeed, the tranquility of a typical Italian village was just what I needed as my stay was an extended one. I really enjoyed having an early spring, out and about in the village with the sun and when it rained cosying up by the fire. There is room enough for the whole family and easy to get around, besides there is alway someone helpful and friendly to ask around. So close to shopping, supermarkets, cheese shop (must!), cafe (must!) and the not-to-forget pizzeria Casti - the owner is so nice (a must must!). The Beautiful Cathedral Santa Margherita you cannot miss! The Spectacular view from the Rocca dei Papi park is above all! By car its so easy and fast from Fiumicino airport as well as so much to see close by. Please find this gem indeed and visit - and stay even longer than you thought! All I can say is Est! Est! Est! - Grazie tanto - Arrivederla!

Perfect Lazio base
We wholeheartedly agree with the other review... This place is a perfect base for exploring the region, even Sienna (120 km) was a nice and doable day trip. The house itself has a lot of character, it feels like middle ages, but with all modern amenities and everything is close by within 1-5 min walking distance (except the lake). The town is nice, getting your morning cup of coffee at Bar Centrale with the locals just excellent. And the owners are kind and helpful too. November is maybe not the perfect month to have holiday in Italy, it is ~15c during the day and heating the first time takes time (the isolation is remarkably good for a stone house thereafter), but you'll have Italy for yourself and there is the olive harvest: at Via Cassia km 113 near Bolsena there is Fresh Olive Oil for sale at the mill, highly recommended (also out of olive oil season).

A perfect place to stay in Montefiascone
My family had the most amazing stay in Montefiascone. Came across this gem by accident, so glad I did! It is the perfect location for Lake Bolsena. Two fabulous beaches within 20 minutes ( Bolsena and Capodimonte), both perfect for children. Shops, cafes, restaurauts, pizzerias (the one close to the house is highly recommended), all within walking distance. There is some amazing views of the lake from the house and the viewpoints (all close to the house). The neighbours are friendly and greeted us cheerfully. The house itself is very comfortable, clean and well maintained. The photos are very true-it really is that nice when you get there!! Park in the car park at the top of via piave rather than negotiate the narrow cobbled streets. Simone was there to greet us, and, when asked, returned to us promptly to sort out a minor problem with the TV ( it was the olympics after all!). Young children would need to be carefully supervised at this property (stairs are stone and a little uneven underfoot, one window is low and is a long fall down. The house is a fantastic base, lots to see around the area-I would not hesitate in recommending this house and I would definately stay there again.
