Response from the owner Dear Lisa, Really sorry for not responding earlier, I usually get a response from Trip advisor if I have mail but seems not this time. . What can I say .. I did explain to you that the manager was unable to checkout the casa (due to her looking after her son who is bedridden with cancer) It is difficult to get cleaners in Molini ..all non residents who own properties have the same problem - especially when things go wrong, .. No excuse I know. But I did offer you a free trip in the summer.! Winter is dodgy up in those mountains. For these reasons, we are thinking to sell the property. Sorry again for your experience and hope you can find solice for your future holidays.

Response from the owner Many thanks for your review - I really am pleased you found everything ok. It is a good place for guests who enjoy the walks out from the village and of course the views. Monika told me after you left that they had a visit from the Wild Boars who were digging up roots for food in the gardens around the area. That was a first for us. Thank you also for leaving the house in a good condition when you left.

Response from the owner Many thanks for your belated review, really appreciate it. It is difficult when owners actually live in another country - they are dependent upon local managers/cleaners etc. I always give contact details to both myself and the manager of the property so any problems can be solved there and then..instead of complaining after the event.. We have been lucky with our reviews so far - both in our visitors book and on Tripadvisor... We try and improve the experience of our visitors each year. thanks again.

Response from the owner I was surprised to receive your review - our house was obviously not what you expected.. It is the first critical review we have had over the many years. We try to explain in advance what it is like staying, not in an hotel, but in a medieval house subject to changeable weather and surrounded by mountains and woodland.... however, your review will no doubt deter people of like from booking and being disappointed. I wish you well for your future holidays.
