About this property

An unforgettable holiday between nature and art. Ideal family friendly location.

Located in the hilly green heart of Umbria, Podere Gnani is a 18th Century beautiful stone colonic villa surrounded by one hectare of fenced off private garden, partly cultivated with olive groves, from which a good self-produced oil is obtained.
In the higher area of the garden is located the private swimming pool, overlooking the splendid panorama of the valley.
The house was completely restored in the 2000s, in full respect of materials and colors of the local building tradition. Even the furnishings – all coming from an authentic antique familiar selection - contribute in creating the special atmosphere of the property.
Presently, the house is organized on three floors, connected to each other by an internal staircase. Each floor is also accessible from the garden.
In the house there are four double bedrooms and three full bathrooms (one with a bath-tub and shower, the other two with a shower). An additional bed is available in the small living room on the lower floor. Overall, the house can accomodate up to 9 people.

Idyllic home and setting
A fabulous place to spend 2 weeks with grown-up family. Beautifully appointed home with so many seating areas both inside and out - and a wonderful pool. The local manager, Sandra, was excellent- can’t praise her enough.

Wonderful property, owner and team!
Beautiful property in an idyllic Italian valley. Property was clean and ready for us. We loved the Italian coffee makers and appreciated the coffee to use with them. We did need to bring Keurig-type cups for those of us who preferred the other coffee maker. We did not cook much, but the herb garden just outside the kitchen is a nice touch. The house is in the midst of a beautiful, very rural valley which means you need to keep all food put away to not attract outside creatures. The beds were comfortable and bedding clean. The bedrooms had dressers and wardrobes and opened up to beautiful views and patios. We felt very safe. The property is secured with a private gate and can be locked up tight. The area is quiet, with other estates sprinkled here and there around the valley. Though, we did have a gecko visit us in the lower level bedroom one evening. The bathrooms had linens and soap, shampoos, etc. The showers were refreshing albeit small as can be expected. The water pressure was very good and supplied enough hot water for 6 adults to feel refreshed and ready for another day of exploring. Communication with Valeria was easy and she was always ready with a quick YES to all of our requests. Valeria has a team of people to ensure your stay is as good as can be. Sandra makes sure the house is ready for you and greets you upon arrival with a tour of the house. Marga helped us create and took care of the details for an itinerary filled with tours, wine tastings, truffle hunting, a private chef, private drivers, dining reservations, and even joined us on a trip to Gubbio to translate as we researched our grandfather's childhood home. With her help and the help of Mauricio (our exceptional driver and translator) and a few kind citizens of Gubbio, we were not only able to find our grandfather's home, but met a distant relative and found the final resting places of other ancestors! Linda was our private chef on our last night. She prepared a number of authentic dishes from the region, a few were very similar to dishes we grew up enjoying. Finally, a word about Mauricio, our driver. He was always prompt and patient when we were running late. And, the help, translations and enthusiasm from both him and Marga to help us find our grandfather's home is truly a treasure we all hold dear. We could not have done it without them. Hurray to Valeria for putting together such a wonderful team.

Une merveille
Nous connaissons bien l’ombriez et y allons régulièrement mais séjourner dans cette maison nous a fait redécouvrir le lieu. Tout est sublime. La bâtisse, les chambres, la piscine, la vue à couper le souffle. La maison est parfaite pour qui voyage en famille avec des enfants. Nous reviendrons sans l’ombre d’un doute.
