We’ve just returned from 4 days at this villa in Casamaggiore, near Lake Trasimeno. The property is spacious, clean, and well suited to a family, with two bathrooms and big, comfy beds. The highlight is the pool — a perfect temperature and ideal for hot afternoons. It’s just across a gravel drive from the villa, but not visible from the house, so younger children will need close supervision.There was some construction work on a second pool outside the bedrooms during our stay. It wasn’t disruptive, but it’s worth checking if this will be shared in future. Inside, the villa stayed cool during the day with fans and air con, but these tended to switch off after a while, which meant it could be warm by morning. The kitchens have great fridge space but limited utensils (especially sharp knives), and the rooms are quite dark when the doors are closed.The villa is in a lovely location but there are no restaurants within walking distance, despite this being promised on the listing, so a hire car — and someone willing to drive — is essential. There are two good supermarkets (Lidl and Eurospin) within a 10-minute drive. A lovely bonus was the delivery of homegrown veg from the owner, Anna, who lives next door. She only speaks Italian but was kind and welcoming, and communication with the managers was prompt and helpful.Top tips: bring bug spray and citronella, and 4kg of charcoal for the BBQ.
