  CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PROPERTIES  
 
Usually the rooms as well as the apartments or other type of premises display characteristics different from the usual, as far as concerns room spaces and standard of reception . In fact, in the majority of the cases they have been realized through restoration that keeps the original structure of antique villas, small medieval hamlets, farm houses, castles or country houses, etc. Choosing a self-catering option you will find fully furnished kitchens and will also be supplied with enough utensils suitable for the maximum number of guests. Each property is supplied with linen for the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom and in some cases (upon request) a private daily cleaning or cooking service is also available. Some properties require the extra payment of some comforts such as GPL or gas (generally only in winter time), electricity, telephone, fire wood, cleaning service, etc. The client is requested to always read carefully the description file of each single property in order to verify whether or not the total amount includes or not the above mentioned services, as well as weather the prices are per week, per day or per person, etc. Being pure reimburse costs, such burdens are exempted from any type of receipt for purpose of revenue; their total amount will be calculated at the end of the stay according to the rates in force at that moment of the lease. Only the LIVING S.R.L. or GES TER S.A.S. staff or their delegates are authorized to receive money from the guests, nothing is owed to keepers such as gardeners, cleaners, etc. unless under expressed authorization of the above mentioned Companies.
Usually swimming-pools are open from June until September, in some cases in May as well; they are always inclusive of cleaning and maintenance service and enough utensils. The client is always required to verify the opening periods. It is also good to know that the location of our properties, in the majority of the cases, are in the country side, therefore the use of a car may turn out to be necessary for going shopping, moving, etc.
