Dies ist die bestausgestattete und schönste Ferienwohnung, die wir je hatten. Alles ist wunderschön aufeinander abgestimmt eingerichtet und picobello sauber. Bei der Ausstattung wurde wirklich an jedes Detail gedacht, zahlreiche Dinge, die wir sonst nicht oder nur zum Teil vorfanden, sind da, angefangen von vielen Ablageflächen und Haken im geräumigen Bad, vielen Kleiderbügeln, Abstellkammer mit Wäschekorb, Wäscheständer, Waschmaschine, Safe,Kühltasche, Küchenausstattung genau passend für 2, und, und, und...Und dann natürlich der herrliche Pool, den wir immer für uns hatten und die tolle Terasse für Frühstück und Abendessen mit atemberaubender Aussicht. Das Ganze toppen aber die beiden Gastgeber Jools und und Pete, die uns mit ihrer warmherzigen und hilfsbereiten Art sofort willkommen hießen. Das Versorgungspaket für den ersten Abend und Frühstück war reich ausgestattet und erlaubte ein erholsames Ankommen, der lokale Laden in der Nähe bietet dann alles weitere Nötige. Privatspäre wird groß geschrieben, trotzdem ist jederzeit Hilfe da, wenn man etwas braucht (wie wir z.B. bei einer Reifenpanne).Man muss sich auf etwas kurvige Autofahrerei einstellen, aber das liegt nicht an der Wohnung sondern der ganzen Gegend. Dafür ist man hier zum Glück noch abseits vom Massentourismus und hat herrliche Natur, Berge und Meer in gut erreichbarer Nähe.Besser geht's einfach nicht.Vielen Dank nochmals an Jools und Pete für zwei unvergessliche Wochen ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/10db1aef-22b3-4a62-ae27-3139bb3f2a42-1751196270499.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f59da8eb-56a0-480b-9f74-4c8de2bf0c94-1751196270115.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1d6a08fe-882d-4d57-b7cd-58f8eccd622b-1751196273764.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/414f1247-902b-424b-99ba-b4e81b62dac8-1751196265662.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Waltraud L.

We stayed four days at Casa Della Zia and we really enjoyed the cosy and clean villa. There is a fully equipped kitchen in which we could make some great Italian lunches and dinners to enjoy at our perfect private roof terrace with stunning views. The swimming pool is lovely and to be used privately as well. The hosts are lovely and extremely hospitable, they're really welcoming and make sure that everything you want or need is covered: they drove us to a lunch and a winetasting, that they arranged for us, because there was alcohol involved, and Julie also went to the pharmacy and hospital with us to help us there since we don't speak Italian. Such great helpfulness and so friendly, great people to be surrounded by and have . ##### Aniek v. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi F. May 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wedding week stay Pete and jools are honestly two of the nicest people we have ever met. Nothing was too much for them and they always went the extra mile. We stayed here for 1 week for our wedding in Pennapiedimonte - we arrived to a care package of items for dinner that night due to the time we arrived. They also placed items in the fridge so we were able to have a cold drink / tea ect. On arrival they showed us around, gave us all the information needed for the stay and were so lovely to us from the beginning. As it was for our wedding we had family / friends staying local and they allowed them to come up and spend time with us at the pool and in the house itself. They welcomed my family in on the day of my wedding and even helped the car ect reach us. They offered for me to use their home itself for my getting ready photos and I was so thankful to them for everything they done for us whilst we stayed here. Honestly the best place I have ever stayed. They even gave us a beautiful wedding gift / card and provided a drink for me and my mother / bridesmaids on my wedding day! It’s definitely a home away from home. I will be recommending this gem to everyone I know and even those I don’t. Thank you so much for making a special week even more special. Your home will forever have a place in our hearts. We really are gutted to be leaving. Thank you so much again . ##### Heidi F. Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Philip C.

Casa del Zia is as described and the photos a true reflection. This lovely couple go above and beyond- they met us at the airport and we followed them to the villa in our hire car. They purchased an air conditioning unit to make us more comfortable in the heatwave. They are knowledgeable about the local area and have many recommendations to make..restaurants, beaches, gelaterias and activities. We have numerous holiday highlights, but one was going for Sunday lunch at the local agriturismo. A perfect way to immerse in Italian family culture. The facilities at the villa are superb and the pool is a real luxury treat! Thank you to you bothJools and Pete. ##### Philip C.

Many times you need to either share with other properties or with another house. Here Pete and Jools give you free run of the pool when you are staying with them. They are the perfect hosts and will provide help if needed or equally leave you to yourselves if that is what you want. The accommodation is great with a spacious upstairs living area/kitchen with large balcony (fantastic views). Downstairs is a large bathroom, utility area and good size bedroom. Only downside is no aircon but there are shutters on windows, and fans to help keep the rooms cool. Pete and Jools sorted out our hire car issue for us (flat tyre) with the help of the local garage which is an indication of how generous they are with their assistance. The dogs and cats are lovely and no trouble if anyone is wary of animals, they are very gentle and friendly. Thank you Pete and Jools for making our holiday so enjoyable. ##### Martin Jakubowski Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas M. Nov 16, 2024 ##### Thomas M.

Nie widzieliśmy czego możemy się spodziewać. Po zjechaniu z autostrady do celu jest jeszcze ok 1 godzina drogi, z czego ostatnie 15 km zajmuje ok 30 minut. To kręta, malownicza droga. Po przyjechaniu na miejsce masz przed sobą oszałamiajacy widok. Żadne zdjęcia tego nie pokarzą. Można go jeść łyżkami. Dla mnie to bez wątpienia największa zaleta tej lokalizacji. Drugim bezspornym atutem jest basen. Jest duży, do prywatnego użytku i oczywiście z pieknym widokiem. Na koniec gospodarze, "uciekinierzy" z Anglii. To wspaniali ludzie, niezwykle pomocni i życzliwi. Abruzja to idealne miejsce dla osób, którzy nie lubia tłumu turystów i chcą posmakować prawdziwych Włoch. Jedyna niedogodnością był brak klimatyzacji (oczywiście wiedziałem, że dom jej nie ma). Jednak trafiliśmy na falę upałów 37-40 C i przy takiej temperaturze zamykanie okiennic w dzień czy uzywanie wentylatorów nie było wystarczające. Gdy tylko temperatura spadła było już świetnie. Zachecam do odwiedzenia domu Peter i Julie. Jednocześnie dziekuję im i pozdrawiam ##### Paweł L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael D.

Wir wurden von Julie und Peter herzlich begrüßt, das Haus hat alles was man braucht und sogar noch viel mehr. Die Lage ist für einen entspannten Urlaub perfekt, es liegt sehr ruhig, die Aussicht ist atemberaubend, der Pool sehr gepflegt und erfrischend! Julie und Pete sind die perfekten Gastgeber, haben für uns Tische in Restaurants reserviert und uns sogar gefahren damit wir nicht nur das Essen sondern auch den Wein genießen konnten. Man kann sie wirklich alles fragen, sie machen alles damit man sich wohl fühlt. In 10 Minuten zu Fuss ist man in einem kleinen Laden bei Familie De Vitis der wirklich alles für den täglichen Bedarf hat. Es ist auch eine kleine Bar dabei - dort haben wir jeden Morgen unsere Cappuccini und Cornetti genossen. Die Besitzer und auch die Dorfbewohner sind sehr nett und gastfreundlich. Der Urlaub war fantastisch und wir kommen sehr gerne wieder. ##### Michael D. Stayed 14 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helga H.

Haus, Garten und Poolanlage laden zu einem entspannten Aufenthalt ein. Julie und Pete sind hervorragende Gastgeber, offen, freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Sie haben unseren Aufenthalt zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis gemacht. Die Umgebung ist ländlich und weitläufig. Der nächste Laden/ kleiner Supermarkt mit Bar und Tankstelle ist zu Fuß in 15 Minuten, mit dem Auto in 3 Minuten zu erreichen. Andere Ortschaften mit weiteren Einkaufsmöglichkeit sind zwischen 10 und 15 Minuten mit dem Auto erreichbar. Zur Adria fährt man ca. 30 - 40 Minuten. ##### Helga H.

Beautiful, clean and relaxing Villa - with pool and amazing views - From the moment we booked Casa della Zia - we felt unique in that Peter and Julie cared for us by providing driving instructions - tips and suggestions regarding our stay. The villa is PeRFECTO - clean, great location, fully equipped kitchen, linens and towels etc. We felt at home from the moment we arrived - Peter and Julie were the perfect hosts- they were very respectful of our privacy while being available at the same time:) and their 3 cats and 2 dogs only added value to this whole experience. We hope to visit again soon- many thanks for sharing this beautiful home with us. Johanne and David ##### Johanne P. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martina B.

Als wir ankamen waren wir nicht nur am Ziel angekommen, sondern auch direkt in Urlaubsstimmung. Pete und Julie sind unfassbar tolle Gastgeber, man fühlt sich sofort herzlich willkommen und unglaublich wohl. Auch unsere beiden Hunde wurden herzlichst begrüßt und auch die beiden genossen die zwei Wochen in vollen Zügen. Das Haus hat alles war man braucht und noch viel mehr, ein so gut ausgestattetes Haus findet man selten. Extrem sauber, total liebevoll eingerichtet befindet sich das Haus in einer total schönen Hanglage, sodass man mit Weitblick die tolle Landschaft der Abruzzen in sich aufsaugen kann. Toll fand ich auch den Garten, es riecht überall nach Rosmarin und Lavendel, abends mischt sich noch ein betöhrender Blumenduft dazu, einfach himmlisch. Der Pool ist wirklich groß und wir konnten ihn während unserem Aufenthaltes immer alleine nutzen. Die Aussicht vom Pool aus ist auch atemberaubend schön. Die Gegend ist toll, man ist dort im richtigem Italien, keine Touristenhochburgen oder ähnliches, und trotzdem echt schnell am Meer oder auch in Pescara. Tolle Restaurants und Lebensmittelgeschäfte sind in der Nähe, und Wandern kann man natürlich auch super. Was aber auf jedenfall unvergleichlich war, man kann dort einfach seine Seele baumeln lassen, Energie tanken, einfach "sein". Tausend Dank nochmal an euch beide für die unglaublich schöne Zeit die ihr uns ermöglich habt, wir werden sicherlich wiederkommen wegen der großartigen Abruzzen, aber auch weil wir uns bei euch so wohlgefühlt haben, ganz lieben Dank an euch beide! Ich könnte noch stundenlang schwärmen.. :) Wir freuen uns schon sehr auf ein Wiedersehen mit Euch, den Hunden und den Katzen ##### Martina B.

Pete et Jools sont très accueillants, charmants, attentifs. La maison est dans un état de propreté irréprochable, elle est très bien équipée et fonctionnelle. Le plus c'est la magnifique piscine et surtout une vue à couper le souffle, nous ne nous en laissions pas. Je recommande vivement, nous avons beaucoup apprécié et nous avons bien profité de nos vacances. Merci beaucoup pour votre gentillesse et votre disponibilité. ##### sylvie k.
