'<p><a href="borgo_san_marco.php">Borgo San Marco</a> has been lovingly and sensitively converted into a hotel. It is simple but perfect for a restful stay &ndash; a real oasis although very close to both the coast and the superstrada.

'<p>Before we went we felt we were paying quite alot for b&b, but <a href="lu_ciaccaru.php">Lu Ciaccaru</a> was definitely value for money - it was fantastic. It was a lovely, lovely place that I really do not think could be improved in any way. Lovely food, wonderful setting, very helpful and pleasant staff, beautifully decorated room...</p><p class="name">Helen, Leicestershire, UK</p>',
'<p>The sea views from <a href="rosanna.php">Rosanna</a> were utterly beautiful and we were in awe of the sea views as we ate our anti pasta.

'<p>Loads to see and do - we barely scratched the surface of what this part of Umbria has to offer in the short time we were there.

I would strongly recommend it to anyone, the food was outstanding, the taster menus were fantastic, the staff and the service were exceptional. The pool and beach were great and it was the best location for a truly relaxing holiday. From the moment we arrived until our sad last day it was the perfect holiday.

'<p>Best views we have ever had in a villa (<a href="mascaratu.php">Mascaratu</a>).</p><p class="name">Gill Parrott, Cambridge, UK</p>',

'<p>Just sending you a quick message to thank you for our fantastic holiday in <a href="borgo_bianchini.php">Borgo Bianchini</a>. It was an amazing setting – everything we expected it to be and more – good accommodation, lovely pool, very friendly owners and staff and not having to worry about breakfast was a real bonus. Todi was absolutely charming and we had lots of very enjoyable trips to places like Perugia (on the train – very convenient). We will definitely be back when we decide to take another break in Italy and we will have no hesitation in recommending you to all our friends!</p><p class="name">Sue Crofts, Gloucester, UK</p>',
'<p>I have been really impressed by the professional yet personal service that we have received from all of the staff at Essential Italy - in 26 years of booking family holidays, I have never experienced such a first rate, comprehensive service. Thank you, once again, for all of your help with our booking, including the car hire (everything was what we’d asked for) and the English to Italian translations for my son’s peanut and nut allergy (absolutely invaluable). Please pass on our thanks to Ian, too, for taking the time to visit us and for the very welcome bottle of wine!</p><p class="name">Jan Daniells, Jersey, UK</p>',
'<p>Ian gave us enough information to avoid all the rubbish and concentrate on the best parts of Tuscany which are largely undiscovered. He also lent me his bike, cycling kit and his time to make our stay exceptional. Brilliant information pack – the best we’ve ever had. Very informative, witty and above all accurate. Had excellent suggestions for restaurants and places to visit. Ian spent loads of time and made a real effort to answer all our questions. The best service we’ve ever had on holiday abroad.</p><p class="name">Trevor and Mary Hair, York, UK</p>',
'<p>Excellent information about location and general description of the Villa was right on. Helen and Louise did a great job. They promptly answered any questions that we had. We would strongly encourage other guests from the USA to consider using Essential Italy to book a Villa.</p><p class="name">Jill Bliss, Washington, USA</p>',
'<p>The property at Podere Salicutti</a> was much more beautiful than I had expected – it’s photos don’t do it justice. Francesco was very hospitable and gave us a tour of his cellar – his wines are excellent. You have a great organization and wonderful people – I will be recommending you to our friends.</p><p class="name">Don and Karen DeSimone, New Jersey, USA</p>',
'<p>I was immediately impressed when I rang you the first time. I felt you were personally organising our trip and was reassured by the fact that you had been to the villa yourself.</p><p class="name">Mike and Niki Norrell, Wolverhampton, UK</p>',
'<p>We had a fantastic time. <a href="villa_leonardo.php">Villa Leonardo</a> was absolutely spot on for us and the girls loved running round the house, gardens and pool. It’s so nice and tucked away too, lovely and quiet after London! We found it hard to drag ourselves away from the house, though we did visit Siena and Arezzo (actually preferred the latter, really nice town).</p><p class="name">Alastair Law and family, London</p>',
'<p>Book it! <a href="trullo_elio.php">(Trullo Elio)</a> We had a wonderful time and will be going again. Chris was so helpful; the property is gorgeous and in a gorgeous location. The owner has done it out so nicely. There are coffee machines (filter and espresso!); lovely crockery. We had a really really good time.</p>',
'<p>I wanted you to know that we had a fabulous time in Italy. Everything was indescribably perfect. It was so hard to go home to England and the dreary weather and its not much better here.

'<p>We found all things as we expected and both Ian and Elenor (at <a href="tenuta_moriano.php">Tenuta Moriano</a>) were extremely helpful.

Thanks again for your help in booking this holiday and we look to book through yourselves whenever we wish to travel to Italy or Sardinia.</p><p class="name">Steve and Karen Over, Bristol, UK</p>',
'<p>Everything about our first trip with Essential Italy made us return for a 2nd time in 4 months. The country is probably one of the most stunning and beautiful places we have visited, the 2 properties we have stayed in were fantastic, the weather great. But knowing how great our 1st holiday had been, we knew we could trust them to make our 2nd trip just as good. In fact it was better! Thank you & already looking forward to next years trip.</p><p class="name">Claire Murphy, Essex, UK</p>',
'<p>This was our first holiday in Italy, and our first experience of Essential Italy – we’re sure neither will be our last!</p><p class="name">Steve and Diane Ewing, Shrewsbury, UK</p>',
'<p>We would definitely go back to this villa (<a href="lu_triuzzu.php">Lu Triuzzu</a>). Met the owners who returned with fresh vegetables for us when they knew we were doing a barbeque. It is one of the most interesting and beautiful villas we have stayed in having spent the last 8 years doing villa holidays in Europe.</p><p>One of the best villa companies we have used for friendly and helpful advice.</p><p class="name">Lean Golledge, Somerset, UK</p>',
'<p>It was perfect and we have passed your website to our friends and aquaintances! We are very happy with EI and with the spot we rented (<a href="casetta_al_castello.php">Casetta al Castello</a>). Silverio was the perfect host to have on site! He shared his fresh fruits and vegetables with us and worked hard to help us with anything we needed.</p><p class="name">Deborah Eastman and Martha Grossel, Conneticut, USA</p>',
'<p>This (Location) was one of the best things about <a href="casa_certosa.php">Casa Certosa</a>. It was easy to get anywhere.</p><p>We had an absolutely fantastic time and will definitely look at using Essential Italy again and recommending it to friends. Thank you for including 2 baby cots and 2 high chairs for us. It made our travel very convenient to not have to bring these items.</p><p class="name">Krista, London</p>',
'<p>Truly stunning views as well as feeling private.</p><p>Immaculate, nice added touches such as fruit and welcome wine. Better than other villas we have booked through other companies which were more expensive but of a lesser quality. Exceptional attention. Particularly impressed with Ian, who not only phoned us upon arrival and directed us to the villa, but also arranged extra accommodation for two further members of our party.</p><p class="name">Alison and Alex, Hereford, UK</p>',
'<p>Loved the proximity to the beach, supermarket and Harrys bar of course! We also felt it had lots of great places to visit nearby. <a href="emeraldina.php">Emeraldina</a> offers great value for money - we loved the barbecue/outdoor seating area.</p><p class="name">Sue Rollings, Producer, BenBen Ltd</p>',
'<p>The villa (<a href="villa_bouganville.php">Villa Bouganville</a>) was quite excellent in every way. The cleaning of the pool daily was an impressive service</p><p class="name">Peter Craine, Kettering, UK</p>',
'<p>We would like to say thanks to yourselves and Ian for a fabulous holiday. Forgot to put on the questionnaire, thanks to Ian’s local knowledge we had some great meals out, found routes and parking in Florence easily and had a fantastic time at Lake Trassimeno which Megan loved, this was not in any guide book so having this knowledge was excellent.</p><p class="name">The Elliots, Grimsby, UK</p>');
