10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
We absolutely loved the tower, having our own bedrooms and bathrooms, on different floors was a real treat. It's a very peaceful place, perfect for a friends or family retreat, we will definitely be back. We loved the cooking lesson with Sylvia and Pier, fully recommend.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2025
An unforgettable stay! The tower was perfect for our family. Each bedroom has its own bathroom with shower, toilet and sink. Each bedroom is on its own floor. The kitchen is on the lowest floor and the living room is on the floor above the kitchen. Outside the kitchen is a small terrace. Many of the windows have screens fitted which helps keep bugs out, however we were not overly bothered by bugs in general.We were able to park outside the tower. The highlight of our trip was the incredible cooking class put on by Silvia and Pierre! Highly recommend to take advantage of this! The memoy of sitting on their terrace eating the most amazing food was spectacular!Silvia also arranged parmesan cheese tour and tasting and balsamic vinegar tours and tastings. Cannot recommend this accommodation enough! Such a gem!The only note is that the washing machine is shared and not always available. Not a huge issue, just be aware and plan accordingly.

This is a lovely fifteenth century tower in the outskirts of Zocca
6.0 / 10.0Average·Apr 2017
The location and position of The Tower are excellent: great views, wonderful countryside around the property. There are also lovely outside seating areas.
The bedrooms and sitting room are comfortable and well furnished. There is an open fire in the sitting room, but it smokes. Two of the toilets did not function well when we arrived and we had to arrange with the owner to get a plumber. The downside of the property is the kitchen, which is small and tired: the dishwasher does not really wash the dishes adequately and needs updating, the electric kettle does not work properly (it turns itself off before it has finished heating the water) and there is no oven in the kitchen (despite an oven being listed on the Owners Direct website). In summary: the property has great potential, but the kitchen needs to be updated and improved.
