We do NOT advise people to visit ‘Campo al vento’. Although the location and view were very beautifull, peacefull and nice, the worst was yet to come. We made our reservation with ‘Groupon’ and were informed beforehand that we could check in at 3pm in our room. When we arrived, the owner ‘Patricia’ was nowhere to be seen. The kind gardener made much of an effort to help us find the hostess. Finally we met Patricia, it came to us as a surprise that we could not enter the room (yet) due to Patricia was still cleaning it, which for her seemed comoletelt normal. 1,5 hours later, we entered the rustic room, which was ok but certainly not luxurious. Patricia asked us to make a choice for the diner (which we paid for in advance), we chose the poultry and the fish. 30min. Before the dinner, she informed me that (because everything was made fresh and another guest had chosen ‘the last fish’) the fish was not available. Not a problem, 2 portions of poultry was also a nice offer. For the diner, we had great expectations because Patricia stressed it would be super fresh and very good. Sadly it dit not meet our expectations! The bread was old and stale. The armosphere was weird and unpleasant.,Patricia seemed to claim the diner as a kind of one man show (A very long show) where the guests had to listen rather than it was a conversation. The appetizers were simply store bought. The main course, was absolutely NOT fresh, cold on the inside and a weird smell. Remarkable is that we read many reviews of the great breakfast. So we did not give up hope! Unfortunately, breakfast was an even bigger let-down. No fruit, store bought stale cookies in a dusty jar, ‘home made pie’ that was not very tasty. Thank god for the yoghurt! All of this was topped of with a natural born arrogance with a hint of ‘Know-it-all’ from the hostess which made us feel unwelcome. This was without a doubt the most astonishing (luckely the only) bad experience which we had in the whole of Italy. We were also critisized for the fact that we would see more of Italy then only Umbrië. So unfortunately, 5 stars for giving tourists a weirded out and unpleasant stay in a nice looking country farm!…
My wife and I stayed there with our son and wife and new granddaughter - we were so glad we did. Our lovely host gave us privacy but wonderful meals. The accomodation was recently renovated but still has the old style about it. It is one a rise so has a lovely spacious feel to the area. We were sorry to leave.
Yes, the view is spectacular and the fresh water filled pool is lovely and refreshing, but my friends and I were so disappointed overall. We thought we were actually staying at a farm where vegetables and fruit were grown and with hens and cows (for fresh milk). TripAdvisor's description - "the produce and the henhouse, with organic vegetables and eggs daily" is misleading. There is no henhouse. There is one bull, no cows, no fresh milk, no vegetables, no fruit. The breakfast consisted of rock-hard toast, store bought muffins and runny eggs. We were never served any vegetables or fruit. Yes, the farm is secluded. It's very quiet. Easy to get lost in the windy country roads so we made sure we got back before dark. We stayed in the apartment with the kitchen with the plan to make dinner's. However, there are no utensils, one pot and only one burner works. The kitchenette is not equipped to make meals. Perhaps if we hadn't read the glowing write ups on the place we wouldn't have been so disappointed.…
I'm torn between giving Campo Al Vento the fantastic review it deserves & keeping it a secret so that it's available for when we want to return next summer! Two wonderfully warm, charming & attentive brothers (Daniel & Bernardo) run this place along with their adorable dog Leone (I'm not usually a dog lover but you can't help but fall for Leone!), having owned a restaurant in Rome they not only make excellent hosts but also dished up some of the best food we had during our whole 10 day stay in Italy. My husband & I were in town for a wedding & stayed here with 10 of our friends, from the moment we arrived we felt as though we were staying with family, the atmosphere was so relaxed, yet we never wanted for anything. The rooms are rustic but comfortable & very clean with lovely fresh smelling white linen & towels, all of the rooms looked sizable, some even have kitchens. There is also free wi-fi available all over the farm. What makes this place really special, other than the hosts is the setting! The farm is set upon a hilltop offering stunning, lush views across the Umbrian countryside, I could have spent the whole summer here looking out at the vista from the lovely pool, if only! It's a working farm so there are chickens roaming the grounds (serving up delicious eggs for breakfast!), as well as rabbits & a vineyard next door. Breakfast is excellent & all very fresh with juice, real coffee, fruit, tarts/ pastries & toast and eggs upon request, all served on the garden terrace, such a wonderful start to the day! You have the option to go full/half-board & I can't recommend eating here enough, everything we ate was incredible!! The place is a little hard to find at first even with a sat-nav but the friendly locals are happy to point you in the right direction, it's about 15/20 mins from Todi Town Centre (lots of restaurants & little shops) & 40 mins to Perugia. We drove in under 2 hrs from Rome & also drove into Assisi (1 hr) one day which was gorgeous. Overall I can't recommend this place enough & we will be back as soon as we can. Thank you Daniel, Bernardo & Leone for looking after us so well!…
Highly recommended. Relaxing and secluded agriturismo with a great view of the Umbrian countryside. Run by two very sweet brothers, very kind and helpful. Excellent food. Great location for couples, families, friends and even solo. Strategically located in the middle of Umbria with lots of historical sites in the vicinity. Great both in summer and in the winter and for both short and lengthy stays.
