"Frallarenza Farm, near Orvieto"
01/28/2009We had a lovely 5 night stay at Frallarenza in December 2008, and would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone desiring a tranquil location near Orvieto. Francesco and Serena have created, with their own skill, hard work and artistic and ecological attention to detail, a beautiful and comfortable house and two guest apartments surrounded by an olive orchard and vineyard. We stayed with our two children in the smaller apartment, which was immaculate and invitingly furnished with Serena's pottery and fibre-art handiwork. Serena's delicious zucchini pasta and breakfast tart (and their newly pressed olive oil) were awaiting us upon arrival, and the kitchen was furnished with all necessities, including ingredients for our first breakfast. What made our stay especially special was the helpfulness of our hosts, and our "cooking lesson" night with them and their son Giorgio, during which we discovered like concerns and shared ideas with Francesco for a more environmentally-progressive future. Grazie a Serena also for a fun pottery lesson and the lovely pieces we purchased from you; and grazie a Giorgio from our kids for the fun ping pong recreation! We wish them all the best in their endeavours.

"our beautifull week in Umbrie"
08/25/2008We have stayed 1 week in the beautifull house of Serena and Francesco. This stay has been the best of all our stays in Italy and we hope we will go back soon. The Umbrian region is amazing, Orvieto is one of the most beautifull little cities we have ever seen. This together with the hospitality of Serena and Francesco has given us a week to remember.

"We wanted to stay longer"
07/02/2008Frallarenza is a lovely place, made cozy and personal by its owners, Serena and Francesco. We stayed in the larger apartment ( 5 adults and 2 children ) and found space and comfort to spare. Francesco did much of the construction himself and the wonderful decorative touches, such as the ceramic lampshades, dinner ware, towel hooks, etc. were made by Serena. Upon
arrival, we found a yummy fruit tart in the kitchen as well as supplies for breakfast the next morning. We would happily return to this small farm in the Umbrian hills to re-experience its charm and the kindness of our hosts.- Stay: 6/2008

"Wonderful stay at Frallarenza"
01/29/2008My husband and I stayed a week at the lovely Agriturismo Frallarenza as a part of our Italian honeymoon and consider our visit there to be one of the major highlights of an incredible trip. We stayed in the small apartment, which actually felt rather spacious for two people and included a nice kitchen to prepare meals and enjoy the bounty of Italian food and wine that we sampled.
The proprietors, Francesco and Serena, were wonderfully generous with their time and always willing to give us tips on where to go in the surrounding areas. Serena is a gifted artist, whose ceramics (cups, bowls, tiles, even the sink!) grace both apartments and are available for sale. Also, we were lucky to be staying at the farm during the annual olive harvest and got the chance to pick olives with the family. My husband and I highly recommend Agriturismo Frallarenza and hope to return there ourselves one day.- Stay: 10/2007

"Frallarenza near Orvieto"
10/13/2007My wife and I spent 3 fantastic weeks In Italy from the Southern end to Tuscany country. We stayed at 4 different agriturismo (Renovated farms) during our long stay. Each and every one was a different experience. Our only regret was that we didn't stay longer at this special one. Although of the 4 all welcomed us, Serena and Francesco welcomed us like no others. We were invited into their home for a cooking lesson (No cost), and also the best dinner we had in our stay in Italy. We were also invited for a ceramic lesson given by Serena and a Master (again free). We always felt welcome if we needed anything, or simple directions for our day trips. Our apartment was also the best of the 4 we stayed at, and very reasonable too. Serena decorated it with all of her special touches, making you feel like you were back home. The only regret was that we didn't make this the longest stay of all. We will be going back in the next 12 to 24 months, and will make this our number one stay. Orvieto is only minutes away (15 km or 10 miles), and really worth seeing. If you're going to Italy, make this a sure thing on your Visit. The family gave us that home feeling, and not like we were in a Hotel. I could go on and on about this stay, but experience this for yourself.

"Momenti di relaxi"
09/17/2007The Frallarenza is such a beautiful place! Francesco and Serena have done everything to make holidays there relaxing and comfortable. We stayed in the smaller flat with evening sun at the terrace, and from the moment of our arrival we felt almost at home. The flat and the garden are beautifully done, Serena and Francesco are really friendly and warm. We can really recommend this place and hope to return there one day!

"We found the ideal place for summer holidays"
09/06/2007We stayed at bigger apartment in August of 2005, 2006 and 2007 together with another family, and found that here was the ideal place for a family, composed by children, to enjoy a real Italian agriturismo. On the date of arrival, Serena's torte and a full of tomato always welcomed us. We learnt Italian cooking and made ceramic dishes from Serena and Francesco.That was wonderful experience.

"The best place to stay in Italy"
06/17/2007We went to Italy for seven years in a row now. The last three times we have stayed at Frallerenza.It's simply the best place we have ever stayed at. The owners Serena and Francesco make you feel really welcome and at home. The appartments are designed very practical and the interior and decorations are beautiful. Serena makes her own pottery. The bigger appartment is perfect for a family or for a bigger group of people travelling together. The smaller appartment is alse perfect for couples or small families. The location is very convenient. The swimming pool is locatad very nice and perfect for as well smaller as bigger children.Orvieto is really nearby but also for example famous cities like Siena and Rome are easy to visit from here.

"Lovely place with great hospitality"
09/11/2006Frallarenza is a beautiful Umbrian stone farmhouse nestled in quiet green countryside just two hours from Rome and 20 minutes from Orvieto. The house has been extended by the owners, Francesco and Serena, with infinite care and skill creating two appartments - one family sized and one for a couple. Using their craft skills with wood, ceramics and fabrics they have created a very comfortable and classic rural Italian home that their website photographs do not do justice to. The house is surrounded by their own organically grown grapes, olives and vegetables and Serena welcomed us with a package of tomatoes, oil, cake and bread. The pool overlooks their cherry orchard and with only two apartments on site should never get very busy. We found it a very relaxing place to stay and in a good location for exploring many Umbrian hill towns - although you will need to negotiate a few hairpin bends to get to them.
