What a wonderful holiday!
We stayed here for two weeks. The contact with Rosella was always very nice and friendly during that time and the meal that Teresa prepared for us on the fist day was excellent! The house and garden are just right for two adults and their dogs. The house stays cool during the day, the garden gets a lot of sunshine and is very private. We had lovely weather and spent a lot of time outside. The house is located in the center of the old village. You don't need to go to a gym, bring your walking shoes, there's a lot of stairs to overcome. Go out and have a drink at the Orange Bar or eat some icecream on the village square. It's a beautiful place, green and quiet. There is a lot to see in the surrounding area as well. We have become very fond of Umbria and we plan to go back there sometime.

Perfect place in a perfect location
We enjoyed our time at this beautiful stone house. Rosella was an excellent host and we would definitely return. Our flight was delayed so we arrived later but Rosella mentioned (as have others in the reviews) that her neighbour Teresa could prepare a meal for us. It was amazing! Homemade pasta and bread, tasty salad, vegetables and fruit all from her garden! She finished with “la crostata” a lovely regional dessert. We loved it! We asked her to prepare a meal for two additional nights. The price was cheaper than a meal at a restaurant. We paired it with a lovely local wine that Rosella gifted us upon our arrival. Grazie! In the mornings I would prepare espresso and we would sit and enjoy the view of the valley in total privacy. Corciano is situated in the perfect location that is central to all main Umbrian cities which we visited by car. We also ventured out to Cortona in Tuscany. From the house it’s a short walk to the piazza where we enjoyed a cappuccino after church and a gelato after an evening stroll. We also dined at a lovely restaurant about four minutes from the house. A memorable stay that we hope to revisit again. Thank you Rosella for your hospitality. Grazie da Claudio e Maria

Perfecto!
This property was perfect for us. We actually chose Corciano among other small (non-touristy) hill towns in Umbria because of this VRBO listing. It is just as delightful as the description and photos. It is its own property, not attached to any other occupied unit and on the main street that circles the small town. The property is so comfortable with a very useful kitchen (we cooked many meals during our 10-day stay), a lovely patio where we often had breakfast and/or lunch. A comfortable living room and table/chairs. A half-bath downstairs and upstairs the bedrooms (one queen, one single) and a full bath with shower. Everything worked perfectly. Rosella is a lovely and helpful host. Theresa, whom others have mentioned, is so nice to have across the street. She made us dinner (asparagus risotto and a fabulous salad, Umbrian bread and biscotti) and sold us many fresh vegetables from her garden. They also offer some transportation services and drove us to and from the train station in Ellera. Corciano is very small so it won't suit everyone. It did suit us very well because we wanted to begin our month in Italy with a quiet spot. There is the wonderful Orange Caffe, with Sara as owner which serves simple snacks, great drinks and cafe. A gelateria, two restaurants, a wine bar that also has substantial and nice small plates and a bar with small plates. There is a small grocery with a very friendly owner that was substantial for our meals at home. We loved it!

Wonderful Stay in Corciano
My wife and I spent 7 days (Oct.25-Nov.1,2024) in Corciano at the Rock House. It was fabulous. Corciano and the house are gems. Corciano has all the charm of an ancient hilltop village without being overrun with other tourists and endless stores/shops. We felt immersed in a little true Italian community. It was the most relaxing week of our 3.5 week trip. Host Rosella has thoughtfully decorated the House, the kitchen was great, the lighting throughout was superb and the bedroom was very comfortable .. we slept great all week. An extra bonus was neighbor Theresa who cooked for us 4 of our 7 nights. She made us some great home cooked meals with fresh ingredients from her garden. We asked if she could prepare some seafood one night and we ended up with an amazing feast from the sea that was enough for two nights. She was also very adept at accommodating my Gluten free needs. We also had dinner one night at Locanda San Michele just down the street - they specialize in seafood. When gazing at the entrance, you'd never know that there was such a fine restaurant inside. I found that throughout Italy. The smallest hole in the wall may be hiding a real culinary treasure. I must give a shout out to the Orange Cafe as well. It's a quirky little gathering spot for locals and visitors to grab a drink. It has a fun vibe. We had a car and driving up and parking at the Rock House is modestly challenging. The hilltop ring road is a little tight but manageable.

A lovely place to stay
Rosella was a great host. Location in Corciano was great for our daytime sorties into Umbria. Pretty vilage in a nicely restored and decorated house. These rentals can be sterile, but it was like we were living in someone's home - and we had Annie lennox to look over us. Teresa across the road cooks some wonderful Umbrian food.

Maison de charme
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans la maison de Rosella qui nous a accueilli très gentille ment et qui a toujours été réactive à nos demandes. La maison est conforme aux photos, propre et bien équipée. Cependant, en ce qui nous concerne, nous cherchions le calme complet mais la route à proximité a terni un peu notre séjour .

Super bien situé, vue magnifique, comfortable
La propriétaire est charmante et nous a bien accueillis. Les terrassessont bien équipées ; tables fauteuils, relax... La maison est fraîche et confortable, la cuisine équipée : nous avons fait appel à Teresa, une voisine, pour des plats typiques préparés - Super Corciano est un des plus beaux villages d'Italie. Excellent point de départ pour visiter Perugia, Assise, Gubbio et le lac Trasimeno

Wederom een heerlijke tijd.
Vijf jaar geleden verbleven wij al in Corciano. Deze keer was het net zo heerlijk als toen. Het huis heeft alles wat wij nodig hebben (goed bed, complete keuken, sfeer). Het dorpje is prachtig en heeft een goede bakker, cafeetjes en restaurant. De eerste avond hebben wij voor 50 euro erg lekker en uitgebreid gedineerd, verzorgd door de overbuurvrouw. We hadden dit keer iets minder geluk met het weer, want vooral de buitenplaats is een genot om te verblijven (met een wijntje en boek).

Zauberhaftes Häuschen in traumhafter Lage
Wir hatten eine tolle Woche. Corciano ist der ideale Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in die Umgebung. Der Ort ist wunderschön mit 2 Restaurants und einer Bar. Wir waren allerdings gar nicht essen sondern haben lieber die Kochkünste von Teresa (Nachbarin) genossen. Das Haus ist ein wunderschön restaurieres altes Steinhaus mit liebevoller Details, einem Garten über 3 Etagen und verschiedenen Sitzplätzen. Die Küche ist perfekt ausgestattet. Rosella war immer erreichbar und hatte wertvolle Tipps. Für uns war alles wunderbar.

Leuk en lekker koel huis, met schaduwrijke buitenruimte.
De ligging vh huis is optimaal waardoor het zelfs bij meer dan 30°, binnen heerlijk koel is, zonder airco. Er is een mooi ruim terras met uitzicht over het dal. Heel privé gelegen omdat het huis aan de buitenrand vh dorpje ligt en schaduwrijk. Het was een goede uitvalsbasis om Umbrie te ontdekken. En omdat het huisje van alle gemakken voorzien is, iedere keer weer fijn om 'thuis' te komen. Alleen het parkeren is een kleine uitdaging maar daar had ik mijn man voor.

TOP!
Es hat alles gestimmt: sehr netter Kontakt und Empfang durch Rosella, uns wurde alles im Haus gezeigt. Wir hatten selten ein so komplett und wohnlich ausgestattetes Ferienhaus. Die Fotos im Angebot entsprechen dem Eindruck vor Ort. Wir haben auch das Angebot angenommen, dass Teresa für uns kocht und es hat gut geschmeckt. Durch die vielen Musik-CD's, Bücher und Spielfilme wird es auch bei schlechtem Wetter nicht langweilig. Wir haben 2 erholsame und erlebnisreiche Wochen verbracht und auch gerne in der gut ausgestatteten Küche gekocht. Vielen Dank für alles. Andrea und Bruno

We are French but I am writing in English so that more people can read my comment. We spent 12 days in this house in Corciano. We loved it. Everything was like in the photos. A very nice place , a very nice village, easy to go to a lot of places. But top of everything....the food cooked by Teresa! It was absolutely fabulous,: homecooked ( vegetables from her garden) and brought to the house ready to be eaten (she lives a few yards in the same street) I will never forget her raviolis !!!

Liked: Listing accuracy
Schön mit Abstrichen
Keine Ablagemöglichkeiten, Kleiderschrank, Kommode für Gäste Küche unvollständig ausgestattet (kein Backblech, keine Deckelpfanne, kein Quirl, kein Schneebesen, keine Eierbecher, keine Schnapsgläser). Kein Sonnenschirm auf der Terrasse, keine Infomappe, keine richtige Einweisung (nur die Dinge gezeigt, die man selbst sieht). Fehlende Ruhe wegen eines in der Nähe befindlichen Steinbruchs. Trotzdem freundliche und unkomplizierte Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin. Romantisches Ambiente, schön saniertes altes Steinhaus in wunderschôner kleiner Stadt

Agréable semaine passée dans cette magnifique maison pleine de charme et d’authenticité. Le village est splendide jusque dans les moindres détails. Heureusement que la maison est en pierres car elle garde un peu de fraîcheur. Sympathique accueil de Rosella. Nous avons plusieurs fois dégusté les bons petits plats de Teresa ( la voisine). Un vrai délice avec la plupart de ses produits. Bref un séjour rempli de belles découvertes

Malerisches Haus
Wir waren für eine Woche in diesem malerischen Haus untergebracht und habe uns hier sehr erholt. Die Gesamtbedigungen (Lage, Ausstattung, Sauberkeit) des Hauses war perfekt für einen gelungenen Urlaub. Die Terrasse ist sehr ruhig und lädt zum Verweilen und Entspannen ein. Im Ort befinden sich in unmittelbarer Nähe zwei Bars und zwei Restaurants (allerdings nicht ganz günstig). Besonders hervorzuheben ist, dass eine Nachbarin (Teresa) auf Bestellung kocht und dabei typisch umbrischen Speisen (zum Teil aus dem eigenen Garten) serviert. Unbedingt ausprobieren! Das ist Haus ist aus unserer Sicht nur zu empfehlen.

Bellissima casa e Ottima accoglienza. La casa e' dotata di tutti i confort e accessori come in Hotel, letto fatto all'arrivo, biancheria bagno fornita, detergenti di pulizia della casa. Il giardino molto molto carino e goduto al massimo con i nostri leoni che ahimè qualche fiorellino se lo sono mangiati. La caccia alle lucertoline( non ne prendono mai!!) e' più forte di loro. La Sig.a Rosella gentilissima e pronta alla soluzione. Abbiamo cenato al Convento e alla Locanda San Michele entrambi da provare e molte sere, invece.... la cara Chef M.Teresa ci ha deliziato con i suoi piatti. Corciano e' una vera chicca di Borgo, per chi e' alla ricerca di pace e tranquillità, strategica per chi vuole visitare Perugia, Deruta, Assisi, Todi, Lago Trasimeno, Magione. L'Umbria e' Bellissima. Grazie Rosella per Tutto.

Mooi huis in een zeer mooie omgeving in een gezellig middeleeuws dorpje.
We hebben het erg naar ons zin gehad in Corciano . Het huisje was erg goed voorzien van alle gemakken en schoon. Erg vriendelijke eigenaren die er waren als je ze nodig hebt.Teresa de overbuurvrouw kookt om je vingers erbij af te likken. Corciano is ook een erg gunstig gelegen plaats om te wandelen of steden te bezoeken.
