Picture Look Great - House & Pool Very Dirty (When we Staid)
Whilst this house and its pool look great, they can only be great if clean. We arrived to a dirty house, dirty switches, filthy tv control for a TV that didn’t work, filthy oven, dirty cutlery, dirty glasses, dirty plates, crumbs on the floor and all over the sofa. Worst part of was the pool, its was neglected, dirty and full of algae bloom. We raised issues with owner who was surprised about the feedback as she says she has never had bad feedback before even though her lowest star on the feedback is due to cleanliness. Owner denied pool was dirty even though I supplied images (Vrbo agreed with me after I supplied evidence but host remained in denial and never acknowledge the evidence). Unfortunalty the host runs this from another country so if there are any problems you are out on your own (or you will be labelled a liar). I was told the pool was cleaned every day but the day after I was told the pool cleaner was actually broken. The pool cleaner returned the day before we left and the last day was fine. I spoke with the host who was very childish and rude, I was the one making the complaint and I had to endure her shouting rant at me whilst I listened in silence – she then hung up. The host blames everyone but herself, the house being dirty was apparently down to me (god knows how I cake months of grime into a few days) and the pool was down to the weather (not the broken pool cleaner) - very odd.

Amazing Villa in a Gorgeous Setting
The villa is beautiful and well-appointed, with a fully equipped kitchen and comfortable living space for a relaxing holiday. Sian the caretaker had plenty of recommendations for great local dining. The inifinity pool was amazing, perfect for the hot summer days and good for all ages- we spent hours at the pool everyday.

My new favorite spot in Italy
My family spent 5 fantastic days in Geppa at Vallo di Nero. The home itself is beautifully restored and the pool views are much more impressive than pictures can show. We explored many small towns around the area of Umbria, with our favorite being the mountain town of Castelluccio. The home itself is very nicely furnished, especially the kitchen for a cook like myself. Sian, the manager, was easily accessible for any questions. Sarah, the owner, was always in the loop. We had a small issue with one of the toilets that was addressed very quickly. I 100% recommend this beautiful home in the hills of umbria.

Amazing!
This is a spectacular place. The historic convent is beautifully restored. The view and pool are spectacular. Our host was amazing with excellent communication and provided detailed information about the home and the surrounding area. The location was excellent with so many medieval towns and places of awe inspiring natural beauty within an hours drive or less. We have nothing negative to say and would return again and again.

Lovely place
We had a good holiday despite problems with a malfunctioning fridge that was replaced after 5 days. The house is ideally situated for many excursions within 1h drive. Lots of nice restaurants within 5 to 10km

Don’t hesitate
The other reviews are right. It’s a lovely house in a fantastic Umbrian hillside paradise but close enough to amazing villages and cities to explore. If you are foodies don’t take cookbooks. They have an amazing set of books. And the beds are super comfy. Sarah an excellent owner and lovely local family at hand to help if you need anything. Hard to imagine anywhere better...

Wonderful retreat
This is a great place to stay that is away from the hustle and bustle of cities and is within an hour of many lovely Umbrian towns to explore for the day! Spoleto is only about 20 minutes from the property and was one of our favorite towns!! We truly enjoyed our stay in Geppa! And Sarah was able to assist us with our needs during our stay. We would definitely stay again!

Beautifully restored and well stocked home in a quiet rural location with stunning views
Ill convento is a beautifully restored home with everything we needed in the kitchen to cook and BBQ. Spacious, with comfy beds, it’s clean and very well looked after. It’s in a quiet location and the pool area has stunning views is very clean. All the restaurant recommendations were excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Communications about our arrival/departure were tricky as we had little Italian however others in neighbouring properties helped out when we were stuck! Thanks again for our first visit to Umbria.
