This apartment is either the best self-catering we have every rented, or one of best two.
Location: Teolo, lots of up and down roads, switchbacks, glorious views and bicycle riders. The Piazzetta Bar and Ristorante is next door, pastries in the morning, then open at lunch and at dinner. Within 2 or 3 minutes walk are a fruit and vegetable store, a butcher/salumeria and a grocery. Also on that row is a Farmacia. A post office is a half-block away. The big Famila store in San Biagio, about 15 or 20 minutes drive, will cover you if you need it.
There are countless things to do and see within the Colli or just around the edges. Our favorite was the town of Este, with its medieval walls, archeology museum and the BEST gelato. Some places are only open weekends. Others have complicated hours. Maurizio provides brochures but you need to look up every single place online and make sure you have the information you need.
The apartment: Piazza Tito Livio, 15, is the European home I dream about. It is spacious, comfortable and attractively furnished. The kitchen has everything you can need and there is a washer AND a dryer. The bedroom and living room both face due east and the sunrises are BREATH-TAKING.
Parking is occasionally a challenge. There is a construction project underway the piazza is popular. In a pinch one can park a two-minute walk away in the parking area adjacent to the school.
Our Host: There is no human being kinder or more concerned than our host Maurizio. and he not only makes the best pizza imaginable, he delivers it to your door! (Saturday night is pizza night.) When we had questions I just texted on WhatsApp and he responded immediately.
Now I am not there. The sun will not rise over any hills outside my window, I will not hear a rooster welcome the dawn. I am so sad. I cannot recommend Domus Tito Livio too highly.
