Borgo Della Spiga - Adult Friendly Country House

I could go on but in every language BdS is outstanding. Its location, on a small dome of land provides for the most exceptional 360 degree view, with several hill top towns on the horizon. The garden is quite spectacular, as is the pool area and from every point there is that view. We were surprised by the variety of bird life- regularly visited by hoopoes, a flock of Europen bee eaters, and on our first evening as we had dinner on the bistrot terrace a "murmuration" of small egrets. We stayed in an apartment- with a large double bed on the mezzanine floor, and a large fold away double on the ground floor- which took literally 20 seconds to convert to a most comfortable bed, and 20 seconds to convert back to a large very comfortable sofa. Aircon was high quality, effective and almost silent, and needed particularly for our first few days with temperatures above 30C. Pool was beatifully layed out and with lots of high quality furniture. You might be impressed with a 5/5 rating on TA- but BdS is better than that! Deborah and Andrea are constantly on hand, to respond to any queation, and always ready with suggestions. This is truly a beautiful place.
