Summary: We arrived at this lovely country house and were warmly welcomed by Simonetta. We were told we were the only ones staying that night and we basically had the run of the house. Our room had a lovely verandah which overlooked the gardens. Dinner was arranged for 7pm and was delicious. Pumpkin and Scallop soup, Rack of Lamb and Peaches with Ammaretti. It was a very cold night and we were very glad of the lovely fire in both the dining room and the lounge. We retired to our room fairly early as we had a busy next day. The bed was extremely comfortable and warm. Breakfast was great too. After returning home, I realised I had left my pillow and contacted Simonetta who very kindly organised to post it to me. Much appreciated.
