I’ll start by saying that Jacopo and Fabio are both amazing and Le Caggia is an incredible location! My friends and I truly, without hesitation, had an incredible experience here.
To start off, I mostly communicated with Jacopo during the booking process and he was very fast to respond. The directions he supplied were perfect. If we didn’t have them, we may still be driving around Italy trying to find the location as it was deep in the mountains (at least it felt that way coming from a densely populated city (Los Angeles).
Jacopo and Fabio offer several services from cooking meals to cooking classes, car rentals, grocery pick-up, etc
The first night we opted to have a dinner cooked for us and ahead of our trip I had sent a list of groceries to pick up and everything was waiting for us once we arrived. As we arrived at night from the airport and after traveling for upwards of 12 hours, it was nice to have a home cooked meal and some wine waiting for us.
Jacopo and Fabio greeted us, and the house smelled amazing from the incredible dinner they cooked us: Roasted Chicken, fennel and olive salad, quiche, lasagna, and chocolate cake… there was only 4 of us staying at the property for the week, so that one meal lasted us several days. In addition, they had a nice variety of local red and white wine, and italian beer all of which were reasonably priced and tasted great.
Jacopo and Fabio gave us some great suggestions on things to do on our trip as well as stopped by (very quietly) without disturbing us to replace water in the hot-tub and replenish the wood logs for the fire-place and hot-tub.
on our 3rd or 4th day we also took a cooking class. Jacopo did the teaching and he was excellent. We cooked a fennel salad, roasted & stuffed pork loan, pasta with a mushroom cream sauce (pasta and sauce straight from scratch) and tiramisu. he was patient with our novices and walked us through everything.
Outside of Jacopo & Fabio’s excellent service, the house itself was incredible. large pool (though it was closed while we were there since it was late November) the hot-tub was incredible for the cold evenings, lots of bedrooms all of which were comfortable and the bathrooms were large and overall our experience there was incredible and we will definitely stay there again.
