We had the most wonderful time staying at Maria’s place! The property is absolutely stunning and the view from the back of the house is incredible. Maria is so kind and caring, we felt as if we were staying with family. We were only there for 3 nights, but we wish we could have stayed for much longer.
Thank you for such a warm welcome and relaxing stay!! We hope to be back in the near future.
Ein ganz idyllischer Fleck!
Schon beim Ankommen stellt sich sofort Entschleunigung ein, hier lässt es sich wunderbar abschalten und die Aussicht und Umgebung genießen. Wir wurden ganz liebenswert empfangen und umsorgt von Maria. Das Umland bietet viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten, besonders interessant fanden wir Sacro Bosco. Es war einfach super! Vielen Dank für die erholsame Zeit. Mille Grazie!
Il posto è veramente splendido, l'appartamento del primo piano é molto confortevole ed attrezzato. La proprietaria è gentilissima e molto discreta. Consigliato a chi desidera un vacanza rilassante. I dintorni sono assolutamente da visitare.
Das Haus liegt schön auf einem Hügel mit super Aussicht auf Civitella, in der Umgebung gibt es sehr viele schöne Orte zu entdecken, auf die Maria einen auch gerne aufmerksam macht 👍 Als Gastgeberin ist Maria sehr entspannt und super flexibel👍
Wir sind herzlich empfangen worden. Die gebürtige Südtirolerin Maria spricht fehlerfrei Deutsch. Sie und ihr Mann Gianni waren immer bereit, mit Tipps und Empfehlungen für Restaurants und Sehenswürdigkeiten behilfilich zu sein. Die Wohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet, auch mit Reiseführern in die angrenzenden Regionen.
Die Wohnung liegt ländlich und man kann die Ruhe genießen. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen.

DA NON PERDERE
Siamo due coppie che abbiamo scelto questa location per visitare in particolare Civita di Bagnoregio ma, al dire il vero è tutta la zona circostante che merita di essere visitata. Il Podere Porcino ha rappresentato per noi motivo di distensione e al tempo stesso di apprezzamento di natura incontaminata. Il nostro giudizio, per i pochi giorni permanenza, è estremamente positivo per accoglienza, bellezza etc. Consigliamo vivamente a chiunque dovesse trovarsi in zona di "sfruttare" quest'angolo incantevole della nostra bella Italia.

Un posto appartato, tranquillo, con un bel paesaggio
I proprietari , dal attimo in cui siamo arrivate sono stati assai gentile in tutti aspetti. Il posto ha un paesaggio bellissimo. La casa è carina è ben pulita. Le distanze ai paesi vicini sono da vente a trenta minuti circa in macchina , cioè la macchina è indispensabile. Se il navigatore vi dice di guidare attraverso il valle verso Vaiano non ascoltarlo, sebbene sia un interesante percorso vi metterete due o tre volte di più del tempo per arrivare.
Un bel posto per trovare tranquillità e conoscere i paesini intorno.

il Podere della quiete e della creatività !
Conosco e frequento da diverso tempo il bel Podere Porcino di Maria perché è un luogo speciale. Prima di tutto quello che incontri al tuo arrivo è... il sentiero che ti porta a casa!....un breve tratto di stradina bianca che conduce unicamente al Podere, così che quando scendi dalla macchina sai che non saresti potuto andare oltre quel luogo. Subito dopo camminando tra i piccoli ulivi , in mezzo al prato, incontrando la pergola di kiwi, il sambuco, fino al mandorlo che è il custode della valle, allora, a quel punto sei certo che quel luogo era lì da sempre e ti aspettava. il tempo ha già cambiato ritmo e tu sorridi e Maria altrettanto ti sorride mentre ti mostra il suo piccolo affascinante regno immerso nella natura e ben custodito dall'operosità di chi lo abita stabilmente. I piccoli appartamenti sono tutti accoglienti, ogni cosa è scelta con gusto e raffinata semplicità: dai mobili ai materiali strutturali delle case, dai colori dei bagni alle tazze nelle quali berrai il tuo tè del mattino , le coperte, le lenzuola, le asciugamani sempre profumate di fresco, e i libri e le mappe del territorio non mancano mai. L'esterno del Podere è molto ben attrezzato e sempre a disposizione degli ospiti, insieme a un buon succo di sambuco che Maria prepara con le sue mani. Inoltre con Gianni e con Maria, potrai conversare piacevolmente di arte e cultura e in particolar modo di teatro essendo Gianni attore e drammaturgo, fondatore del Teatro Null . Le notti al Porcino sono un incanto, la visibilità del cielo stellato è totale, a volte c'è un cane che abbaia in lontananza o qualche pecora bela nell'ovile....e sempre più ti senti a casa e anche se non sei ancora andato via, già sai che vorrai tornare ! Grazie Porcino! Grazie davvero !

Ottima hospitalità, bellissimo posto.
Sono arrivata e mi hanno fatto trovare l'appartamento già scaldato.
Il posto è bellissimo, immerso nella natura.
I proprietari sono molto gentili e anche simpatici, mi hanno dato diverse indicazioni per visitare posti insoliti.
Mi sono trovata molto bene, in pace e in armonia, raccomando questo posto!

Oase und gastfreundlich
Eine Oase pur und tolle Gastfreundschaft ist bei der Maria anzutreffen. Studios in denen sich gut Ferien machen lässt und draussen, wo man sich gerne aufhaltet unter einer Kiwi-Laube oder auf einem Liegestuhl, etc.
In der Gegend gibt es wunderbare Restaurants und herrliche Orte zu entdecken.

Erholung pur!
Wunderschön gelegen mit Blick über das Tibertal; Olivenbäume, Mohnblumen, Vogelzwitschern, blühender Oleander, Hängematten zwischen den Feigenbäumen - ein unglaublich idyllisches ruhiges Plätzchen, an dem wir uns wunderbar erholt haben, nicht zuletzt dank der tollen, unkomplizierten Gastfreundschaft von Maria und Gianni, die gleich nebenan wohnen. Was immer wir gebraucht haben oder wissen wollten, sie waren immer mit Rat und Tat zur Stelle. Unser Einjähriger hat sogar eine Wanne zum Plantschen bekommen.
Schöne Ausflüge z.B. nach Orvieto, Civitella di Bagnoregio, Bolsena, den "Parco dei mostri" und den Giardino dei Tarocchi" von Niki de Saint-Phalle, und jeden Abend ein kleiner, feiner Spaziergang in der Umgebung.
Wir hoffen, bald wieder zu kommen. Tausend Dank an Maria und Gianni!

Outstanding stay, great people
Gianni and Maria rebuilt an original farmhouse on a hill overseeing a valley. They are the best hosts you could hope for, warm and helpful. There are many exciting villages in the vicinity, like Bagnoreggio, the disappearing city, Lubriano, with its "flower trail," or Orvieto, home of one of the most beautiful cathedrals in all Italy.
Olive groves and vineyards fill the countryside and in fall, figs, persimmons and chestnuts grow at every corner. The weather is mild, even in November.
Podere Porcino offers two guest apartments, an actual theater and a conference building for anything from gym classes to cooking sessions.
Our apartment was very cosy; it has its own wood stove, but also modern heating, a bathroom and fully equipped kitchen.
You can hike or bike for days. There are Etruscan caves, farms, country villas, waterfalls and the Tiber river runs nearby.
Also, Rome and Florence are each about an hour away from Alviano, the nearest train stop.

Un podere adorabile
Per chi ama rilassarsi lontano dal mondo, a contatto con la campagna e la natura, il Podere Porcino è un luogo incantevole. Ho avuto la gioia di rivedere il cielo stellato dopo tanto tempo. E l'accoglienza e la simpatia dei proprietari (animali di casa compresi) non è da meno.
La casa è molto curata e dispone di tutto il necessario, il giardino è il luogo perfetto dove stendere la sdraio e leggere un buon libro.
Da ultimo, la posizione geografica la pone vicino a mete turistiche molto piacevoli da visitare, come Orvieto, Todi o il Lago di Bolsena.
Grazie di tutto, speriamo di tornare.

Das ist schon ein besonderer Ort
Ein weiter Blick ins Tibertal; ein Himmel, dessen Farbe sich über den Tag mehrfach verändert; eine ruhige Lage, aber doch mittendrin, um mit dem Auto Ausflüge zu den vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten von Latium und Umbrien machen zu können; eine geschmackvoll gestaltete Ferienwohnung, die mit einer Bibliothek lesenswerter Bücher auch zum Verweilen einlädt.
Und dann sind dann noch die Gastgeber Maria und Gianni hervorzuheben, die uns ungewöhnlich herzlich aufgenommen haben und uns viele wertvolle Anregungen und Tipps gegeben haben. Wir werden gerne wiederkommen.

Erholung pur in Podere Porcino
Wir haben es in dieser herrlichen Umgebung geschafft, zur Ruhe zu kommen und haben sogar spontan noch verlängert, weil es uns so gut gefallen hat. Es war so erholsam, dass wir gar keine Lust hatten, größere Ausflüge zu machen. Für uns Stadtmenschen war es unglaublich, dass es so etwas Ursprüngliches (und kaum Touristen in der näheren Umgebung) gibt.
Maria ist die Seele dieses traumhaften Anwesens und man fühlt sich einfach nur gut aufgehoben.
Vielen Dank für „Dolce far niente“ und wir freuen uns, auf ein baldiges Wiedersehen auf Podere Porcino mit Vino und Essen bis es nicht mehr geht.. :-)

A wonderful, comfortable, beautiful retreat
Maria and her family have created a wonderful retreat overlooking stunning views. After a busy time of touring the cities, it was a perfect place to rest, to visit with friends and to enjoy the beauty of this area. The apartments are cozy, clean and comfortable. It is well located to visit the surrounding hill towns and we were greeted like friends. I would love to return some day!

toscana's out, latium's in
podere porcino is a beautiful yard on the hills of latium. when you're dining on the green area of maria's (hostess) wonderfully arranged garden (there's extremely good smelling lavender, huge rosemary and salvia bushes, oregano, thyme and especially tenderly red poppies everywhere!), you look in the valley where castiglione lies - and in the evening, when it's dawning, this small village slowly lightens up. scenically there's so much beauty to discover. podere porcino is circled by so many old, historical villages and small towns (see civita di bagnoregio!), so if you like history you'll find your happiness for sure. if the wanderlust is taking over, just go for it: there are so many paths you can walk and enjoy all the smell of nature. but if you also need peace as i did, you can also stay in podere porcino and have a sit in the garden, take a walk through the silver olive trees (maria and gianni make their own olive oil). you also can enjoy the neighbour's sangiovese or merlot (the latter is highly recommended!). and ask for olives and cheese, you won't regret that piece of italian cuisine culture.
both flats are beautifully arranged and cosy. and for all that maria makes a good price. well, at least i really don't regret it. also if you're a traveler and not a tourist, i recommend you this place very much, because you don't see that much tourists in latium as you see them in toscana - everyone goes to toscana, but if you're someone who fancies discovering stuff on your own, then latium's a better place for you. also you can reach rome in an hour/hour and a half by train.
maria is a great hostess, she speaks both german and italian. i really enjoyed my stay for which i'm very thankful to her (she took great care of me, because as i arrived i was one huge mess).
thank you maria and gianni for the great stay!

Nonostante la pioggia durante il weekend del 14.04.2012, è stato molto bello poter soggiornare 2 notti al Podere Porcino, scoprire le terme di Viterbo, Civita (Maria, grazie ancora dei consigli!) e Bolsena. La pace del posto, la ottima cena e le vostre parole rimarranno con noi. Torneremo!

WEEK END DA SOGNO NELLA TUSCIA
I primi giorni di novembre abbiamo trascorso un week end nel podere Porcino che essendo situato in posizione strategica, ci ha consentito di visitare in breve tempo città d’arte e luoghi di interesse
paesaggistico veramente straordinari, permettendoci di scoprire questa terra meravigliosa.
Il casale è molto bello, in posizione panoramica sulle dolci colline e circondato da alberi da frutto e ulivi.
L’atmosfera è particolarmente rigenerante e l’appartamento in cui abbiamo soggiornato è molto accogliente e pulito. Nel giardino di fronte troneggia un maestoso mandorlo che a febbraio raggiunge
l’apice dello splendore con la sua straordinaria fioritura.
Abbiamo apprezzato moltissimo la simpatia e disponibilità di Maria e Gianni, ottimi padroni di casa.
Grazie a loro abbiamo potuto anche assistere ad un interessante spettacolo teatrale nella vicina Lubriano, sede del teatro dei Calanchi, trascorrendo così una diversa e piacevolissima serata.
Speriamo di ritornarci presto.
