10/10
From the moment we arrived we knew we were in a special place. Di Colle in Colle is idyllic, everything you would wish for in the Italian countryside. The panoramic views of vineyards and olive groves leading down to Lake Trasimeno in the distance and the hills beyond were stunning.
We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa which had a terrace and plenty of options for sun and shade. The villa itself was clean and bright, and had everything to be self contained although we didn’t really use the kitchen area much as the intimate fine dining restaurant was superb. The menu is small but so much thought goes into the food and everything is freshly cooked and locally sourced. We opted for their tasting menu on one evening and it was delicious. Breakfast is also a real treat with fresh fruit, baked goods, meats, cheeses and cooked eggs etc.
The wine served all comes from the vineyard and it’s delicious; red, white, rose and sparkling have been produced concentrating on quality rather than quantity. Their own olive oil was served every evening with homemade bread- such a treat.
Of course, none of this could have happened without the hard work and dedication of the people who work there. Giulio has a wonderful team and nothing was too much trouble, from the warm and friendly welcome on our arrival until we said goodbye.
We’re already planning to return next year.
