Charming Home Overflowing with Elegant Gardens and Patios
"A charming, historic home overflowing with elegant gardens and patios.” - Reviewed by Lisa

LISA PERFECT PICK “The warmth that this home exudes coupled with its peaceful history speak for themselves.”
This commodious Umbria villa rental has a peaceful history. As probably the oldest home on the estate, it was once a church and the regular Sunday worship place of the local farmers. The original church site to one side of the property has been converted into a garden room with patio doors accessing the lovely outdoor terraces. The original front feature can still be found and now adds a nice element to a sun-filled room with cozy rattan furniture.
This charming, vine-clad house really feels like a home with its high, beamed ceilings and large rooms filled with lovely and abundant antiques. As they climb the stone steps that have been etched by stories from the past, the guest can feel the history and welcoming ambiance of this unique home.
Wonderful views across the rolling hills, lots of lovely patio spaces, an elegant driveway and gorgeous parklands lined with stately pine trees make this home a favourite venue for events and parties.
