Fabulous
Iano - Podere Le Monache
A huge thank you to Diana the property manager - super helpful and lovely to deal with.
The Property was a real surprise in such a great way, the garden and pool provided a lovely relaxing place that we were looking for whilst the apartment was functional. The small village of Iano was a super suprise in a great way too - fabulous restaurant!
We highly recommend and will be back.

we were very happy with our staying, apart from the house, also the small village was very nice, with a good restaurang in the middle, and a small shop where you could buy bread, cheese and some other basics, and they also served coffe.
