We spent the most wonderful week at Il Gelso. The apartment was superb and everything that we could ever have needed was there inside. Two things made our holiday really special though: the outside space and Adele, the owner. The pool area really was amazing and we swam everyday - and most evenings too. The views were beautiful, out across the olive grove and to the mountains in the distance. It truly was such a peaceful place to read, relax and swim. Adele was so kind and courteous; she gave us great restaurant ideas and even booked a table for us one evening, but she was always so discreet too and let us just get on with enjoying our holiday.
Todi was a great base for sightseeing; there are so many lovely towns and villages within an hours drive. We did, however, think that Todi was the best of them all, and to be able to walk there (uphill!) to look at the shops, monuments and to just sit in a cafe and watch the world go by was such a pleasure.
I can only think of positive things to say about Il Gelso and Todi - going there for a week of relaxation was the perfect end to our holiday in Italy.
