Discover a tranquil escape in the rolling hills between Umbria and Tuscany, where birdsong and rustling leaves replace the sounds of city life. This intimate holiday home offers you a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, ideal for a romantic getaway or small family retreat.
The interior welcomes you with thoughtful amenities and a cosy wood stove that keeps the space warm throughout all seasons. The main living area transforms into additional sleeping space with a sofa bed, while the primary bedroom provides a peaceful sanctuary for two.
Step outside into your private slice of Italian countryside, where manicured gardens flourish with olive and fruit trees. From May to October, enjoy access to a large, fenced swimming pool that offers refreshing respite from the Mediterranean sun.
Your location puts you within easy reach of cultural treasures. Visit the spiritual city of Assisi, explore the wine regions of Montepulciano, or spend days discovering medieval towns like Cortona and Anghiari. Lake Trasimeno's islands and local food festivals offer authentic Italian experiences, while Florence makes for an unforgettable day trip. An English-speaking concierge can arrange everything from truffle hunting to cooking classes.

I'm Katharine from Berkeley, California. After falling in love with these unspoiled hills in 1990, my friends and I purchased and restored this ruined farmhouse, later adding two more properties and a pool. We've created our own slice of paradise here, and we're delighted to share our Italian dream with you whenever we're not here ourselves.
