Holiday Villa/Apartments - Guest Comments 

2008 season

What a fabulous apartment - and the views on a clear day - breathtaking... Maggie & Alan, Poole, Dorset, UK

Stunning views from all angles and very comfortable and well equipped apartment.... Rob & Rachel, Nelson, Lancs, UK

2007 season

This place is a must for those who want to escape the hustle, bustle, and stress of home. The apartment was spotless and very spacious and the views from all directions are breathtaking. We have been on many Italian holidays and so far this holiday has been our favourite - best of all worlds - National Parks, mountains and excellent beaches....lack of tourists, charming towns and non-stop sunshine...     Brooks family, Southampton, UK

Thought Villa Collecimino looked pretty good on the web-site - the reality was vastly better! The Sunday morning view of the mountains was jaw dropping.....

Marek & Annie have conspired between them to put together a little slice of heaven here in the middle of the humdrum life here on earth.  We're already planning to come back for more.....

Kevin & Linda, Stirling, SCOTLAND

Had fab week - wonderful high standard, spotless apartment with stunning views. Found information, maps etc invaluable. We have found this area very cheap compared to other Italian regions - locals are helpful, happy and friendly. Abruzzo is a hidden gem!   Dalby family, Newcastle, UK

Stunning views and a comfortable, well equipped apartment and perfect weather.  Val & Tony, Stafford, UK

Fabulous views, lovely well equipped apartment. We found the local information guide you have compiled very useful indeed - thank you.   Langridge family, Newcastle, UK

We have had the most wonderful week, with fantastic weather. We are really going to miss our breakfasts out on the terrace, with the breathtaking scenery. Thanks again for the lovely accommodation ....hopefully we will return one day.....   Gareth & Ann, Wales, UK

Apartment wonderful, everything we expected from the photos. We had a wonderful holiday and would love to come back. Thank you to Annie & Marek, Vincenzo and Eva for all their support. Julia & Sarah, Norfolk, UK

We have had a lovely relaxing week in a breathtaking location.  The apartment has been excellent and has provided us with a good base to explore the coool mountains...  Lucy, Belfast, UK

10 days of mountain walking in the Gran Sasso range would not have been so enjoyable without this apartment as our base. Wonderful location - only 30 minutes from the mountains and all the facilities we needed. Great time - excellent location.  Bob & Graham, Belfast, UK

The apartment and views are fantastic! Weather hot!      Di Salvo family, Beckenham, Kent, UK

We had a lovely week in this very impressive countryside....and can highly recommend the villa....

Booker family, Holsworthy, Devon, UK

Wow, what a place! Abruzzo has exceeded all our expectations, but please don't tell anyone, we'll just keep it to ourselves - that's the charm.  The information you supplied was excellent and extremely useful.  Helen, Tim & Ethan, Melbourne, AUSTRALIA

A most stunning location - that view is something else! We have had a super week's holiday here - enjoying the wonderful peacefulness, the gorgeous weather and the comfortable accommodation.   Ros, Andy and April, Birmingham,UK

A great time with many mental snapshots - buona vista, buona gusto, buona vita!   Joe & Donna, Alfredo & Anna, David & Holly, Rhode Island & Minnesota, USA

Best of all the views are stunning - you chose the best building plot for miles around - thanks for providing a lovely place to stay.    John & Sheila, Cumbria, UK

What a stunning landscape - simply doing nothing while taking in the view has been an activity in itself!  Many thanks - we'll be back.  Gill, Rob & Luke, NORTH CYPRUS

Villa great - clean and spacious for all 5 of us.  Look forward to a return trip.  People are so friendly and accommodating and the food here is so natural and wholesome - want to come again!    Ern & Pete, Gloucestershire, UK

We have enjoyed every moment and every view: highlights include: swimming in the Adriatic, Atri, Lago di Penne, San Stefano, Rocca Calascio - breathtaking, but truly nothing compares to the Campo Imperatore - we were awed by the beauty and the history.  Last but not least - eating suppers on our terrace at dusk....   Sari & Neil, Ottawa, CANADA

 

2006 season

We have had a perfect week, the weather has been very good - 20 degrees on most days and no clouds to spoil the view, unbelievable in November.

Rachel & Robert, Norwich, UK

... spotless, well decorated and comfortable in every aspect... helpful places to visit in the guide book provided. Local people friendly, helpful and moutain views spectacular.   We have travelled far and wide and this holiday will be hard to beat.

Peter, Barbara, Mary & Laurie, Hadleigh, Suffolk, UK

The villa accommodation was more than we could have hoped for. The amenities were excellent and location beautiful...

Bill & Shirley, Essex, UK

We have had an excellent week in this area - visiting most of the villages and also Teramo, Aquila and Sulmona. This serene part of Italy is everything we hoped it would be.   Grant & Mary, Nova Scotia, CANADA

...view from the apartment is breathtaking.  The meals we had at the recommended eating places were truly amazing value for money (the food was excellent too).  We saw a lot of Abruzzo but this area takes some beating.           Tony & Teresa, Leicester, UK

...the scenery, villages, weather and of course the lovely apartment have all contrived to make this a good holiday. Our particular highlights include: Campo Imperatore, S.Stefano, Castel del Monte and the spectacular drive. Excellent food - so many courses - and just £12 each including wine and liquers;dining on different balconies while admiring the vistas.   Beacham family, Lincs

What a truly special time we have had at Villa Collecimino and Abruzzo.  Upon first arrival we were stunned by the views and lovely apartment - which exceeded our expectations. Loved the balconies with panoramic views...the medieval towns were great to walk through and everywhere we ate was amazing...soooo much food!!           David & Christine, Pennsylvania, USA

Thank you for a fantastic stay in a wonderful apartment....The Fox family, Hawkhurst, Kent,UK

View phenomenal and so interesting. Impressed by the professionalism, as has been the case since first finding the website.  This has been an exceptional stay in a villa that makes you at home as soon as you put the key in the door. The scenery is magnificent and full of interest in every direction. For us the highlight has been the local people - we feel like we are returning to long lost friends.         Jerry & Sally, Basingstoke, Hants, UK

....comfort of the apartment... extraordinary views from the 3 terraces.....exhaustive info from our hosts....the Abruzzi as a whole, the hills, the scenic views, unbelievable pizzas at La Rustica....a wonderful time, excellent holiday!        Francis and Claire Godefroid, BELGIUM

We have had a wonderful week in this fantastic villa with views that will be difficult to surpass...

Colin & Jayne, Somerset, UK

The place lived up to our expectations and more....The Jarvis family, Halesowen, W.Midlands

Thank you for excellent information about places to eat and great directions - we have thoroughly enjoyed our week. Atri, Campo Imperatore and seeing a brown bear in the wild have been the highlights of our week.      The Clark family, Henley on Thames, Berks, UK

We can only reiterate our fellow guests' comments, so beautiful and peaceful. We found ourselves wanting to whisper so as not to disturb the silence! One week was not quite enough time for us... we hope to return soon to this breathtaking scenery and lovely apartment, which was spotlessly clean and very comfortable.    Harrison family, Marden, Kent, UK

A lovely villa in a magnificent setting - and we had a wonderful time duirng our all-too-brief stay.

Wonderful location - we enjoyed opening the shutters every morning to see an ever changing view....     Rope family, Norwich, UK

We came here last August and were so impressed, we thought we'd come back.... spectacular views from every balcony.     Tebbs family, Epsom, Surrey, UK

Villa Perfect - clean, warm - views stunning.     Hutchings family, Cheshire, UK

2005 season

BEAUTIFUL!  ACCOMMODATION = FIRST CLASS, VIEWS = WONDERFUL (BREATH-TAKING). I WOULD INSIST THAT ALL VISITING ABRUZZI, STAY AT VILLA COLLECIMINO!

Mr & Mrs Valerio, Pennsylvania, USA


What a beautiful, restful place! Excellent accommodation in a stunning setting. A different view (and often a different season) out of every window - utter bliss!! To all who read this, you have made an excellent choice.      Jan & Paul F., London, UK


Great time had by all - will be telling all family and friends. Had a great trip down through France on motorbikes, and over the mountains - fab!     Dave & Kathy F., Somerset, UK


Had a magical holiday - great villa, great weather, lovely people. Loved the villa (very tranquil). Would return without doubt.     Richard, Jean and Charlotte (3!), Barnsley, UK


We've really enjoyed our stay at Villa Collecimino. Everything about the villa and the surrounding area is lovely. Drive out to S. Stefano di Sessanio is breathtaking. Hope to return again. Thank you.      Janet and Ray M., Halifax, UK


We have enjoyed a great week in luxury accommodation with breathtaking views and good food.
Jackie & Colin , Gareth & Sarah, Tim & Sarah, Kent, UK


Thank you for a delightful visit in all ways - villa, countryside, people. We would recommend a visit to Atri and Castel del Monte and Campo Imperatore - amazing!Fran & Alan O., Clitheroe, Lancs, UK


Thank you for a fantastic experience. We have had a wonderful time and will be in touch soon to book again. Italy is amazing and the people are great. We managed to pick up enough Italian to get by and saw some amazing sights and ate lots of excellent food..

Can definitely recommend L’Aquila, Castel del Monte (if only for the stunning valley you have to pass through [Campo Imperatore] on the far side of the mountains).

The people are fantastic, really helpful and friendly. Definitely want to come back with the family. Excellent! Andy and Sharon J [on their honeymoon], Middlesbrough, UK


Villa Collecimino very nice indeed. Superb place, enjoyed the markets at Atri on Mondays and Citta Sant Angelo on Wednesdays. Beaches nice and mountains amazing. Got hooked on the coffee made with the little espresso maker, worked out how to use it…

We will try to learn a little more Italian and come again.. Ian & Laura T., Holmfirth, UK

Our holiday at Villa Collecimino has been all we wanted for and lived up to the literature on the web. At 475m above sea level the views in every direction are stunning, particularly the Gran Sasso mountains. It was a bit of a shock to see snow on them in June and further when more snow fell on them one night. Gazing at the lush valleys from the balconies is never tiring …………

We will certainly tell our friends about Villa Collecimino and trust that they have as good a holiday as we have had………………….David & Christine B., Belper, UK


Excellent luxury villa, spotlessly clean, lovely décor. Superb views, lovely neighbours Eva and Vincenzo, very welcoming and helpful. Stephen L., Essex, UK
