Amazing apartment in beautiful location
My friends and I (3 couples) stayed in this beautiful apartment in August and we will definitely be back! It's an easy drive from Milan airport, and sits in a gated estate in the hills above Barzano, a sleepy nearby town. The apartment has clearly been refurbished recently and it's clean, well-equipped and very spacious, but still has the charm of a grand old Italian villa. The rooms all had AC, Wi-Fi and super comfortable beds. The weather was amazing so we spent our time swimming in the lovely pool, walking in the gardens and exploring the area. It's a very quiet and private place, and we loved cooking and eating on the terrace - the property is high up in the hills and the views are astonishing. Gretchen was incredibly helpful, and provided us with some great recommendations for restaurants and walks in the nearby forest. Overall a very relaxing and refreshing stay.

A magical stay in Poggio Verde
My family and I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful northern Italian country retreat in August for two nights, and we genuinely wish we could have stayed longer! We had to return to my husband’s family in Genoa, but none of us wanted to leave this enchanting place. The gardens at Poggio Verde are truly magical. Our 2 year-old daughter was in heaven, especially while being pushed on the swing overlooking a sprawling, beautiful lawn. We spent most of our time wandering through the gardens and enjoying the pool, which was equipped with all the amenities you could hope for—changing room, sunbeds, and umbrellas for shade. It was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully considered to ensure a perfect stay. Gretchen's recommendations for activities around the villa were spot-on, and we even enjoyed a delicious pizza night in the comfort of the canopied dining table overlooking the lawn. Each room was extremely comfortable, spotless, and equipped with air conditioning, making our stay even more enjoyable. Poggio Verde is a place where you can truly relax and unwind. I could easily spend a month here, and we will definitely be returning!
