Well appointed, lovely peaceful location, fresh and clean, would recommend
Good facilities, lovely peaceful location. The only thing I would suggest to improve on is the beds. But having been in many places on our trip, this is a common issue for us all. So not sure if this is how beds are in Europe. ( metal bases and sprung mattresses- not the best for bad backs😞. This however did not overshadow our time at this location. Hosts were very hospitable and gave us some good suggestions for places to visit

Splendida vacanza anche per una famiglia numerosa!
Abbiamo soggiornato nella casa di Sergio una settimana con i nostri 5 figli e siamo. Stati benissimo :la casa e ampia e comoda anche per noi che di solito abbiamo difficoltà a trovare spazi adatti.. Immersa nel. Verde ma allo stesso tempo a pochi passi dal. Paese e punto di partenza per escursioni in luoghi splendidi sia dal punto. Di vista naturalistico che storico.. Torneremo sicuramente!

...mehr braucht man nicht
Wir (6 Pers.) hatten eine wunderbare Urlaubswoche in einem sauberen und gut gepflegten Ferienhaus in schöner Lage. Von der Buchungsanfrage bis zur Abreise gab es absolut unkomplizierten und freundlichen Kontakt zum Vermieter, der auch mit seiner zuvorkommenden, wohlwollenden Art erheblich zu diesem gelungenen Urlaub beigetragen hat. Ob Wandern oder Kultur, Spaß im Gardaland oder Bummeln in Venedig, ob auf der Autobahn oder Landstraße - von hier aus haben wir täglich, nach einem ganz entspannten Start am Morgen, etwas Tolles unternommen. Grazie mille, lieber Sergio! ...und immer nette Gäste! Wir kommen gerne mal wieder! Ciao!

Sehr gut
Liegt schön am Rande der Bergen, ruhige lage aber durch die Autobahnanbindung ist man schnell in größeren und schönen Städten. Wie zum Beispiel Vincenza (20 Minuten), Padua (40 Minuten) oder auch Venedig (1 Stunde). Waren auch am Meer Lido di Jessolo, das 1 Stunde und 15Minuten entfernt ist. In der Nähe befindet sich auch eine Schlucht Contra Pria in der man baden kann (Wer sich traut kann auch von Felsen springen), das Wasser kommt aus den Bergen sehr sauber. Hat richtig Spaß gemacht. Das Haus ist ein Super sauberen Zustand. Küche und Zubehör waren vollständig vorhanden, es hat nichts gefehlt. Der Vermieter hat sich schon vor dem Urlaubsantritt bemüht, uns einige Wünsche zu ermöglichen, so das wir uns beim Eintreffen Wohlfühlten (also wie daheim). Grazie Sergio für die schöne Urlaubswoche. Wir sehen uns wieder.

Bel soggiorno casa confortevole
E' stato estremamente piacevole soggiornare nella casa di Sergio, ottimamente arredata e provvista di spazi e di tutte le comodità utili a una famiglia o comitiva anche con bambini. Splendidi sia gli interni che gli esterni della casa, con la possibilità di mangiare in giardino usufruendo anche di un bel barbecue! Pulizia impeccabile ed estrema disponibilità da parte dell'host completano il quadro. Consigliato!

Super rapport qualité-prix dans une belle région
La maison est située à proximité de nombreux départs de randonnées à pied ou à vélo dans des lieux magnifiques et chargés d'histoire (ne pas manquer la ballade des 52 tunnels construits pendant la première guerre mondiale, notre préférée !) Le village en lui même n'a rien d'exceptionnel. Nous y avons séjourné à deux familles, soit 4 adultes et 7 enfants (dont un bébé) en installant deux pré-ados dans le sous sol (pas vraiment aménagé) pour ne pas être trop entassés et c'était parfait. Vue sur les montagnes et les champs. Sergio et son frère Stefano nous ont accueillis très chaleureusement, en toute confiance et en toute simplicité. Merci! NB Il faut savoir que la maison est mitoyenne d'une autre identique et que le jardin, le garage et le couloir d'accès à la deuxième salle de bain installée au sous sol sont communs. Nos voisins étaient charmants et avaient des petits enfants aussi donc cela n'a posé aucun problème.

Jolie maison dans un endroit spectaculaire, le paysage montagneux ainsi que l'histoire.
Nous avons vécu des vacances extraordinaires dans le pays de Vélo d'Astico. La maison est bien equipée, charmante, beaucoup d'espace, beaucoup de facilités (surtout les bicyclettes pour rouler sur le vieux chemin de fer). On se sent vraiment à l'aise. La proximité de la rivière Astico (place de baignade) est un surplus. Le propriétaire dispose de beaucoup d'information: des brochures, cartes de la région et donne bien des conseils. Grâce à cette information on peut explorer les montagnes (monte Cergnio, les 52 galleries du Pasubio, forte de Corbin) et apprendre l'histoire et le passé deu peuple sud-tirolien (les traces de la grande guerre 14-18). Dans le village de Vélo d'Astico, la pizzeria Cioci's nous a tellement plu: des serveuses très aimables et les plats excellents dans un jardin romantique.

Relax ai piedi dei monti
Abbiamo soggiornato per 10 giorni con i nostri bambini nella casa della Ferrovia, e ci siamo trovati davvero bene. La casa è spaziosa, ben arredata e pulita; il padrone di casa si è dimostrato sempre molto gentile e disponibile alle nostre richieste, a volte anche anticipando le nostre necessità. Lo spazio esterno di certo non manca, e l'entrata al giardino dà su una strada ciclopedonale, rendendolo un posto perfetto per far giocare i bambini senza pericoli. Nei dintorni ci sono varie facili passeggiate da fare per esplorare i luoghi della Prima Guerra, e l'autostrada è raggiungibile in 15 minuti di macchina. Raccomandata per una piacevole soggiorno.

Perfetta Pasqua in la casa di Sergio
We had a nice easter-week 2016 with our familiy in Sergio's house. The house was in best shape, we all thought, we were the first inhabitants. There was enough space for all of us, although we have been using every bed. Our kids could play in Yard and on the nearby playground. We all had pleasant walks in the area and had short drives to Verona and Venice, each costing about an hour by car using toll-collect - motorways for six to seven Euros one way. Highly recommendable!
