A note from Jo
This villa offers exceptional value for money and is in a great location if you wish to explore the best that Umbria has to offer.
A lovely villa with an array of different outside areas to sit in and good facilities. The area was great with plenty to explore. The owners and house keeper were helpful and friendly throughout our stay.
A fantastic house with perfect quiet surroundings and a great pool! A lovely week in Umbrien. Visited wine yards, went to Lake Trasimeno, went water rafting, visited beautiful city’s: Assisi, Perugia and Cortona. We (4 adults and 4 kids – age 5-10) highly recommend!
