Although the property was not in the centre of Orta it was only a short drive ( 5 - 6 mins ) and certainly not an unpleasant walk ( 15 - 20 mins ) past the villa Crespi. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating and were eager to make sure that our stay was a pleasant experience and provided lots of information on the local ameneties. The property was very clean and all conveniences were provided for.
There were also a number of restaurants and bars nearby, within walking distance, that catered for a variety of different eating / drinking experiences, as well as a well stocked local minimarket. The garden was well maintained and provided a secluded environment where we could relax and sunbathe in private, as well as the large terrace overlooking the garden. There was adequate parking for at least two cars in the driveway. Overall a very pleasant stay and we found it exactly as described on the website. Would most definitely stay there again if the opportunity arose.
