Casale Boschetto is the entire upper floor of a lovely and gracious, two-hundred-year-old stone villa set in beautiful grounds with cedars, olives, and cypresses. The villa has excellent accommodation and guests are always well looked after. The property lies between Perugia and Assisi.
The grounds include an olive grove (with some hundred trees), fruit trees, vegetables, and a field of chickens. Guests are very welcome to pick fruit and vegetables at any time during their stay. Running almost the full width of the upper floor is a delightful, spacious, loggia for outside eating and relaxing. The infinity swimming pool is set to one side of the house and has lovely views over the surrounding countryside.
The apartment, which is more like a villa on one floor, has its own independent driveway, parking, and entrance.
The couple who own and live in the lower part of the villa, will tell you about the villa's history during World War II and its role in the allied advance to the north. They are superbly hospitable and will do everything possible to make your stay comfortable and rewarding.
The APARTMENT is for those who appreciate comfort and serenity. It is comfortably furnished with many antiques and with modern bathrooms and kitchen. It is a perfect place to relax and from which to visit Umbria's most important and historic sites.
Cooking lessons: Giuliana is a wonderful cook. As a result of frequent requests from guests she is now offering individual day cooking courses. These are open to both guests at Casale Boschetto and other guests who may be staying in the area.
