We stayed in Anne & Gregors lovely home in Monteleone D'Orvieto. We arrived to numerous lovely gifts which was a lovely welcoming. The home is very spacious with everything you would need for a short or long stay, it has a beautiful balcony which we used daily, usually for breakfast. Immaculate and homley, we really enjoyed the location set in a medieval village with friendly locals. Views to die for with interesting architecture. The town has a lovely restaurant especially if you like truffles, a post office, small supermarket and cafés. We explored the Umbria region extensively and found some great gems. Would highly recommend an exchange to this area of Italy 🇮🇹 😀

Where to begin… Anne and Gregor are kind, generous, and the sweetest people. Their home in Monteleone d’Orvieto is amazing. Idyllic, charming, incredibly comfortable and very well done. The town is the quintessential small Italian village on a hill with stunning panoramic views. The area has so much to offer and is centrally located between Rome, Florence, Tuscany, and Umbria. We could not have asked for a better exchange or for better exchange partners.

Well, we have fallen in love with both Casa Rosa and Monteleone D'Orvieto! Everything was perfect. Anne was so easy to communicate with, responding quickly. We explored many wonderful places and certainly ate well. We thank you so kindly for sharing your special place with us! Aloha, Karen and Victor

We had a wonderful time at Anne and Gregor’s beautiful home. They gave us lots of great tips about the area and the house in a video chat and were always available for questions. We also met friends of theirs who live nearby. The Christmas decorations and live nativity are a special treat during the holiday season. We’re looking forward to Anne and Gregor’s visit at our place in Portugal. It’s a great location very close to Tuscany and makes for great sightseeing in Tuscany and Umbria.

Anne and Gregor are wonderful exchange partners. Despite not having the pleasure of meeting them when they visited St. Thomas this past February, I feel like we were staying at our friend's home. Their communication was open, responsive, friendly and warm. We continue to navigate a personal health situation and they couldn't have been more supportive, understanding and flexible. The home itself it so lovely. It's a wonderful mix of old, historic Italy with modern design features. As someone who loves to cook, I really appreciated that the kitchen had everything, and I mean everything, to make great meals. As they also have a home in North Carolina in the US; this is the first international exchange for us that had some of the kitchen tools seen in American homes, like measuring cups and spoons. Seems so inconsequential, but it meant so much for this non baker to be able make a hazelnut, chocolate cake! The bed was super comfortable, as was the oversized sofa in the living room. It is a beautiful, warm home in a peaceful and special small town and we hope to return someday.

Anne and Gregor were fantastic in the run up to us coming to Italy. It was lovely to chat to Anne ahead of the exchange and to get some brilliant recommendations from her. We had a wonderful time in Monteleone and really enjoyed living like a local; drinking espresso multiple times a day and working our way through all of Umbria's gelato shops! The flat is very tastefully decorated and a great base for exploring the local towns and cities. I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in central Italy's culture, cuisine and community. :)

We absolutely loved our time at Anne and Gregor's gorgeous home in Monteleone d'Orvieto! Being able to stay in a beautiful medieval hilltop village in Umbria was a very special experience and we would love to return one day. ❤️ Communication with Anne was fabulous, she was always prompt and gave us so many useful recommendations; actually too many for just one visit and we couldn't get around them all! It was wonderful to be in such a comfortable house (loved the bed!) and the highlight for us was being able to source local ingredients to cook together in a well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed some delicious meals on the juliet balcony overlooking the piazza. The neighbours were friendly but you need to brush up on your Italian since little English is spoken here, fair enough! Monteleone was well located to explore other places in Umbria and Tuscany. We loved the scenery, the food and the people, so all in all it was a great exchange, thank you!! 🤗🙏🙏🙏

We had the most amazing stay in Anne & Gregor’s beautiful home. Monteleone d’Orvieto is a fairy tale medieval village and their home is situated in the heart of the village. It has been lovingly renovated whilst keeping the original charm. We fell in love! It was a great base for exploring both Umbria and Tuscany and an easy drive to Rome. We can’t recommend this home enough! Anne was very helpful with suggestions, before and during the trip. You will not find better hosts! The home was everything we’d hoped for and more, and anyone who is fortunate enough to stay here will be very very happy!
