I stayed in this lovely villa with my husband in mid September 2015. The pictures are very accurate and the hosts were easy to deal with and very attentive. We arrived late at night, and the hosts accommodated our late arrival. They took the time to show us how to work the appliances (dishwasher, washing machine), and when we later had questions, they were available via text to help out. We dealt mostly with the owner's daughter and niece, who were both excellent English speakers. We did swim in the pool once, but it was pretty cold. The pool is well maintained and clean. While we were there, the temperature was in the high 70s to high 80s, but the pool didn't get above 68 degrees. I think the proximity to the river and shady location keeps the water pretty cool -- just something to be aware of if swimming is a big part of your plan. The kitchen was excellent, and the hosts stocked it with homemade jams and cakes. They also provided cereal, milk, fruit, bread, cheese, and prsut. A wonderful selection that lasted the whole week. They also offered us honey grappa and homemade plum brandy. The owners just bought a brand new, king size mattress for one of the bedrooms. The beds in the house are pretty firm. The king bed upstairs is the softest, if you prefer a softer bed, and the linens were clean and soft. The house stayed pretty cool during the day, even when it was in the upper 80s. There is an air conditioning unit in the hall way on the top floor to cool the bedrooms. We used it one night for a little while, but mostly didn't need it. The property is very large and isolated. Just a note, there is a friendly outdoor cat on the premises and the owners keep dogs and some chickens on their property lot to the right. The owners come in the morning to feed the dogs. I was a little worried about this, but we only saw the owners once, rarely could hear the dogs or other animal (and never saw them), and the cat stayed outside. No problem at all -- the property was very quiet, isolated, and peaceful. We had an excellent time at Villa Mulino and would definitely stay there again.
