Guestbook for Il Pendolino
The past two years we have had 2 nice weeks holiday at La Macina di Bettona, and we would still like to visit again.
During our visits we have seen some very nice, special and historical cities and villages, and enjoyed many italian festas and festivals(which are highlighted in the english information pack available in each apartment). We noticed that both the apartment and the grounds plus pool area are all kept very clean. The flowers are beautiful and the views of the area are fantastic.
The owner Roberto, together with his father Renato and Liz are all very helpful especially if we have any questions. Almost everything you need to know about the area is written in the english booklet.
Regards to The Ercolanetti Family and Liz.
