The sister property to our ever popular Ceccomoro, Casa Andrea is also furnished in uncluttered, comfortable country style with fresh, light and airy interiors and stylish furniture.

Casa Andrea is set on the same estate as Ceccomoro and guests will appreciate the heatable pool, air conditioning in the bedrooms as well as the shared tennis court, volley ball net, children's football goal and the lovely country views.

On the ground floor, a large open-plan room with sitting area flush with contemporary paintings, kitchen, a dining area which opens out to the shaded dining terrace with scented jasmine and crimson geraniums. All other rooms open onto gardens and terraces and guests will appreciate the study/playroom with WiFi, sofas and a plasma screen tv for watching DVDs. All bedrooms are of a good size, and have excellent modern en suite facilities. A few steps from the dining terrace lead up to the pool, set in lawned gardens of approximately 1 acre with ample space for play.

As with Ceccomoro, guests have written warm appreciative comments about the discreet assistance offered by Roberto who manages the estate as well as the excellent cook service.

There are beautiful pastoral views, with Todi, one of central Italy's most picturesque towns and with a wide range of shops, restaurants and other amenities, visible through the trees. A superb choice for a villa holiday in Italy for a groups of friends and families alike.

Welcome Provisions Included

A welcome gesture to offer you a drink after your journey; tea or coffee and biscuits, wine or juice and a snack. They are not sufficient for an entire meal. Owners will also generally leave a few other items such as some salt, sugar, oil, bin bags and toilet paper.

Food Hamper

Can be arranged for an additional cost and service charge payable locally. For guests who are arriving late or who recognize they may be delayed and arrive with no time to do shopping. Shops are shut on Sundays, so the aim of the Food Hampers is to provide two light meals and two breakfasts, to allow guests to go out for one meal, then do more shopping on Monday. We can adapt these hampers to take into account allergies, dislikes and dietary requirements, or according to whether there are children in the party.

Cook Service

Clients going to Casa Andrea can avail themselves of the services of the housekeeper, Elda, (or if she is unavailable, her friend Graziella, equally good), who enjoys cooking very good simple, local, meals  for guests.  She will shop for and prepare meals, usually in the evening, though she is prepared also to cook light lunches if required, by arrangement. Her duties include laying the table, serving up to the second course, and clearing up in the kitchen. The cook does not usually like to work later than 9.30pm, nor does she usually work on Sundays or Bank Holidays (other than in exceptional circumstances), though she can leave light meals for these days. If there are numerous clients eating, or if the meals requested are elaborate, Elda or Graziella may need to have someone to help them, who will also have to be paid.

Booking and Prices

We charge a one-off booking fee payable in advance of departure directly to CV Travel London.

The cost of the cook service is €12 per hour, to include time spent shopping and travelling. Bear in mind that shopping and travelling can take quite a long time. As a very rough indication, a simple two-course meal (plus ice-cream or fresh fruit) for 6 people could take 4-5 hours, whilst a more elaborate four-course meal for 8 could take seven or more hours.

If you are happy with these arrangements, we need to know if you would like the cook’s services, to book her well ahead of time. Elda and Graziella also cook for Casa Andrea's sister villa, Ceccomoro, so we cannot always guarantee that they will be free. We would therefore be grateful if you could complete the attached questionnaire and return it to us as soon as possible.

Shopping

We suggest you stop on the way to Casa Andrea and shop for ‘basics’ and food for breakfast for Sunday and Monday mornings. However, if you are arriving late (planes can be delayed), and bearing in mind that most shops are closed on Sundays in Italy, we suggest you order a full Food Hamper (see the Travel Directory in the Italy brochure)

Note

Please bear in mind that the arrangements outlined above are an extra goodwill service organized by CV Travel, who cannot guarantee that the cook will always be able to prepare meals as requested. Should the cook become unavailable due to unforeseen circumstances, you will be refunded CV’s booking fee.
