About this property

Villa di Giomici - The Geraneo - Umbria to live among nature and culture

The Villa di Giomici farmhouse is located in the homonymous village of Giomici, a medieval castle of rare beauty immersed in an oak forest 600 meters above sea level. We are in the municipality of Valfabbrica, a natural watershed between Assisi and Gubbio, two of the pearls of the green heart of Italy. The apartment is located in the manor complex of the Vagni family, the age-old owner of the village, about 200 meters from the castle.

The "Il Geraneo" apartment is a prestigious apartment, located on the first floor of the house, with a large panoramic terrace that looks towards the sacred Mount Subasio (Assisi) and the Chiascio river valley. It has a beautiful private garden for the exclusive use of the apartment with water and a barbecue for beautiful al fresco dinners in the evening. Fantastic base for both historical and artistic excursions (Gubbio 20 km, Assisi 15 km, Perugia 30 km, Spello 25 km, Spoleto 50 km) and naturalistic excursions (Monte Subasio park 20 km, Monte Cucco park, Franciscan path 3 km, caves of Frasassi, gorges of the Rio Grande 5 km) both by trekking and by mountain bike.

Only in winter there is an additional cost of €60 per day for heating the villa.

A wonderful stay in early January

We had wonderful days in this beautiful house close to Assisi. The apartment was spacious and felt charmingly authentic and we lacked nothing. The location is great and the view of the valley from the balcony is astonishing. The host was very helpful and kind throughout. We warmly recommend this place!

Umberta was very welcoming and pleasant! She gave us some homemade wine on arrival. She was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed staying in her large apartment! The heating system worked well, and we were very comfortable in the accommodation! She even gave us a tin of homemade biscotti, which was very nice and unexpected. Highly recommended!

Lovely apartment in beautiful position well located for easy day trips

We had a great time despite the heatwave. Early rising to visit towns before it got too hot - probably the hottest week of the year when we stayed. The signora is very kind and the gardens and view are wonderful. Lots of wildlife sightings: hares and badgers. Visited Gubbio, Assisi and Perugia. Lots of time by the pool which was much needed.

Fantastic property and host

We had a fabulous 10 day stay here. The apartment was superb with a balcony, table and sunshade where we ate breakfast and supper most days and gave lovely views of the Umbrian countryside. The communal pool just down the road was lovely to cool off after a hot day out. And Umberta was a most welcoming host providing home made biscotti, tomatoes and a delicious tart and always happy to give any help or advice. We felt like part of the family and did not want to leave. Highly recommended.

A beautiful house with astonishing view

Very clean and cosy apartment, lovely view from the terrace, nice and big garden, a riding centre just round the corner - 10 minutes walk from the house. Umberta was so lovely host! Even though I don´t speak Italian we were able to understand each other. I am pretty sure that after a few weeks with her, I would be able to speak Italian quite well:-)

Beautiful stay in Umbria

This is a wonderful property that lives up to all its 5 star reviews and Mrs Umberta is a kind and generous host. We were made very welcome and the apartment and views were amazing, it was a real oasis. Villa di Giomici is a beautifully kept property with an equally beautiful garden and pool area surrounded by stunning Umbrian countryside. We felt very lucky to stay here. We stayed 4 nights and would have loved more time. It was a great base for visiting Assisi and Perugia and other towns in the area. Mrs Umberta kindly gave us some of her delicious homemade biscotti and even brought us some salad from the garden. We stayed here between visits to Rome and Florence and we could not have picked a better place. We would love to return another time. Thank you so much for having us to stay!

Lovely stay at Umberta's lovely villa

We had a super nice reception and welcome. Umberta was incredibly attentive, discreet and present during our two weeks. Her personality is very rare. For us, she is a great lady who you couldn't wish for a better hostess. Her house is charming and extremely well cared for. incredibly spacious and always cool during the hot weather. The view you have from the balcony is breathtaking. This makes you feel good every day. We would like to thank her very much for her services and her presence. We recommend her home to everyone, young and old! We hope to come back one day. Take care Umberta.

Beauty & luxury in the Italian Hillside

This property is without a shadow of a doubt the most beautiful and enjoyable property we had in our travels through Italy. The history, hime, landscape and gardens are impeccable and we enjoyed every corner of it. The house is perfectly maintained, spacious comfortable and well appointed with lovely antique furniture. The kitchen is very functional, the water pressure great, the bathrooms modern and spacious. Every single window has a breathtaking view. The same panoramic view of the hills that are enjoyed from the large front balcony. This is someone’s loved home, clearly. Your host Umberta displayed exceptional hospitality and kindness. She cared about our comfort and clearly loves her property and gardens. If you can manage a stay here you will consider yourself fortunate.

We hebben afgelopen week met ons gezin genoten van het prachtige huis met een prachtig uitzicht in Giomici. Wij zaten in Geranium, het bovenhuis, dat met een trap van buitenaf bereikbaar is. Het uitzicht is geweldig vanaf het ruime balkon. Het huis heeft 4 ruime slaapkamers (3 x 2 personen en 1 x 1 persoon) en 2 badkamers met douche, wasbak, toilet en bidet. 1 van de badkamers heeft daarnaast een bad. De keuken is verouderd, maar de basis is er. In de woonkamer een ruime tafel, bank en stoelen. Er is geen tv, maar die hebben we niet gemist. We konden gebruik maken van het grote zwembad dat met meer accommodaties in de buurt wordt gedeeld. Umberta, de host, is een geweldig lieve vrouw. Genoten van de gesprekken met hulp van een vertaalapp en mogen proeven van haar zelfgemaakte limoncello. Zalig. Ik raad iedereen deze accommodatie van harte aan als je van rust, ruimte en echt Italiaanse sfeer houdt.

Great starting point to get to Assisi, Perugia, Gubbio; many trekking places to go! Umberta, the owner, is an impeccable and charming host! Really enjoyed the stay with my 2 teenage kids.

Umberta is the real star of this property. She is so welcoming, helpful and friendly. It’s like staying in Grandma’s spare rooms. You’ll need to use translate if you don’t speak Italian. The villa is in an incredible location, with beautiful gardens to wander and the pool is down the road. The resident cats are friendly and there were heaps of birds and even wild deer. So peaceful. A walk to the castle is well worth it. The apartment itself is huge, spacious and traditionally furnished. Lots of art and objects around you that are beautiful. The bed in the main bedroom on the verandah side was super comfortable and slept so well. Be aware that many of the amenities listed were not in the apartment - microwave, television, washing machine. When we asked Umberta she kindly let us use the washing machine downstairs. There was also no kettle for tea. Theres a coffee moka pot for the stove but no coffee provided. You definitely need a car - there is nothing nearby for food or drink unless you drive. Overall, its a peaceful place hosted by a gorgeous nonna. A better equipped kitchen and more accurate listing would raise it to 5 stars in our opinion.

Très bien

Accueil très sympathique de la propriétaire qui habite à l'étage en dessous. Logement propre, au calme. Nous n'avons pas eu trop chaud malgré qu'il n'y avait pas de climatisation et le fait qu'on était en période de canicule car la maison est fraiche malgré tout, et la végétation alentours apporte aussi un peu de fraicheur. Dommage que, pour ce prix, et la superficie du logement, qu'on n'ait pas de lave linge. La propriétaire nous a proposé d'utiliser le sien, mais nous n'avons pas osé la déranger. c'est toujours un peu délicat. Sinon, agréable séjour, l'Ombrie est à découvrir, plus authentique.

Ottimo soggiorno

La villa è incantevole, spaziosa, ben tenuta e pulita. Anche la posizione è ottima e ci ha permesso di visitare molte località della zona nord dell'Umbria. Il panorama dalla terrazza è mozzafiato. Il giardino con il barbecue è un'oasi di pace e la sera è perfetto per grigliare e trascorrere le serate in compagnia. La piscina è ampia ed è perfetta per il relax e il divertimento. La signora Umberta, la proprietaria, è veramente gentile e disponibile. Ci ha coccolati tutti i giorni anche con le sue prelibatezze culinarie. Lei e la sua famiglia ci hanno accolti con grande affetto. Location consigliatissima. Ottimo soggiorno. Speriamo di rivedereci presto! Alessandra

Una vacanza tra cultura e relax

Esperienza positiva in un luogo dove era possibile rilassarssi nella quiete più assoluta tra il verde della montagna , bei panorami e la piscina ben curata e che rispettava tutte le norme Covid. Anche il clima è stato ottimo ed essendo a 600 mt di altitudine al mattino e alla sera si poteva gustare una gustosa brezza .Da questo punto base c'era l'imbarazzo della scelta per visitare le tante bellezze dei dintorni : Assisi, Gubbio, Spoleto ,Spello ,Perugia , il lago Trasimeno ecc. Peccato essere dovuti rimanere solo muna settimana . Bella esperienza e un grazie anche alla simpatica e cordiale sig.ra Umberta .

Perfect place for relaxing and seeing Umbria

Umberta's lovely apartment was perfect for a relaxing stay. We enjoyed the large cool rooms and the marvellous balcony which gave us views over the wonderful garden and the Umbrian hills towards Assisi. It was quiet. It was so peaceful. I suppose it is what you'd dream Umbria to be. Gentle rolling hills of green, summer heat, olive groves, local food and landscapes that haven't changed in generations. There is a large shared pool a short walk away which our children loved. We relaxed. Properly relaxed. Umberta was very kind and friendly. Grazie mille Umberta per i vostri biscotti, caffè espresso, pomodori, lattuga e per la cura di noi così bene.
