トスカーナとウンブリアの国境にある牧歌的で静かなヴィラ

When I and my husband first saw Ca' della Santina, apart from its lovely name, House of the little Saint, our hearts sank looking at the ruins and the fallen trees and brambles in what was once its garden. But whether it was my husband's love affair with Italy (at least that's what he called it) or the magnificent site overlooking breathtaking scenery into Tuscany we took the plunge and decided to rebuild the 300 year old farmhouse in the local style, landscaping the garden and pool area to fit the hillside location. The stonemason, Domenico, who worked on the restoration became literally part of the house. He welcomes guests, offers them his wine, honey and eggs, and looks after the garden and pool with the ambition to make it the most beautiful property in the region. Una meraviglia!

Ca' della Santina's location is the ideal antidote to busy city life. Within minutes of arriving you will enjoy the calm & tranquil countryside location, interrupted only by the cicadas in the trees and lizards lounging in the sun. You can lie by the private pool or retire to the spacious and invitingly, cool house which is bordered by a beautifully landscaped garden and wooded hills and valley beyond. It's the ideal location for anywhere between 2-12 people. A holiday in Ca' della Santina means total relaxation and a chance to recharge your batteries!

Ca' della Santina is the complete package: spacious, traditionally furnished house, stunning gardens with a big private pool all set in beautiful wooded countryside. The idyllic setting which can be enjoyed from the morning and evening terraces will make it hard to leave the property. But if you want to venture out, you will be able to enjoy the bustle of street markets in medieval towns, take in the rich history of this area of Italy and enjoy the delicious food and wine this area has to offer.
