Om boendet

Fantastisk villa med fantastisk utsikt

Villa Umbriana ligger i en liten by som går tillbaka till 1200-talet. våra synpunkter på Todi- känd som en av Italiens finaste medeltida bergstäder - tar andan iväg. Villan restaurerades till en krävande standard med medeltida stenar och moderna bekvämligheter. Restaureringen är framträdande i drömboken Italienska hem som heter "Återställ ett hem i Italien" av Elizabeth Helman Minchilli. Huset fick också rave recensioner som en av arkitektens bäst verk i en välkänd amerikansk designblog som heter Willow Decor.

Vår hushållerska är en bra lantkock med en varm och välkomnande personlighet. Hon känner till fastigheten inifrån och ut, kan ordna allt från födelsedag middagar till pool reparationer, och är alltid glad och hjälpsam för gästerna. En av våra största skatter!

VISNINGAR: Todi s kända renässanskyrka (Santa Maria della Consolazione) är i full utsikt från poolområdet och trädgården. Villan är omgiven av fält av solrosor, olivlundar och vingårdar. Trädgårdarna är laced med stenmurar och rester av ett medeltida torn.

PLATS, PLATS! Vi är idealiskt beläget för att tur Umbrien sevärdheter i Assisi, Perugia, Orvieto och Spoleto, för att bara nämna några av kullarna mindre än en timmes bilresa från huset. Det finns tennisbanor i närheten och en privat språkskola i Todi samt hästridningar bara några minuter från huset. Matlagningskurser och vin turer är också möjliga.

GARDENS: Poolområdet gränsar till häckar, rosor och helt inhägnad av (kastanjestrål) fäktning. Denna hölje gör att det är lättare att övervaka barn. Det finns naturlig nyans från jättekar och ett stort paraply och schäslongar. Det finns fyra marmor toppade bord i trädgårdarna, fruktträd och matlagning örter. Här, som överallt i Italien, handlar det om nöjen av bra mat och vin, som är avsedda att njutas och njutas: antingen under köket pergola draperad med blommande trumpet vinrankor, vid poolen eller vid en av två inomhusbord. Den uteservering är en öppen stengalleri i italiensk stil, med tillförsel av stockar. Lådorna kan användas utomhus eller ställa en av de tre inomhuseldstäderna eller gjutjärnskaminen.

INTERIOR: Huset är dekorerat med antikviteter och orientaliska mattor: tonvikten ligger på elegant komfort. Det finns terrakottagolv och höga takbjälkar. Det rymliga köket är husets kontaktpunkt: den upplysta spisen är perfekt för en höstkväll. Vår hushållerska kommer alltid sätta ett leende på ditt ansikte med sin nådiga gästfrihet. Hon är glad att laga läckra måltider för gäster på begäran.

LAYOUT: Villan kan bekvämt sova tio personer. Det finns fyra sovrum på övervåningen: ett sovrums svit, två dubbelrum och ett rum med två enkelsängar. Nedre våningen finns en gästsvit som består av ett queen size-sovrum plus ett intilliggande vardagsrum / sovrum med två dagliga sängar och en hopfällbar bäddsoffa. Badrum: 3 1/2 totalt; två av dessa är badrum. Villan har en okomplicerad men flexibel layout så det är perfekt för två familjer och till och med ytterligare övernattningsgäster. Det är också perfekt för en romantisk tillflyktsort.

MILJÖ: Villanova ligger nära stadenTorregentile, bara 7 km söder om Todi på den umbriska landsbygden. Todi är idealiskt beläget i hjärtat av Umbriens böljande kullar, som är täckta med olivlundar, fält med nollande solrosor och vingårdar. Todi är jämnt från många av Umbrias främsta hilltowns (Assisi, Spoleto, Spello, Orvieto, Deruta och Perugia) och är bekvämt beläget för att turnera regionen. Det är en lätt en timmes 45 minuters bilresa från Rom flygplatser. Ryanair flyger från Stansted flygplats i London till Perugia, bara 35 minuters bilresa till vårt hus.
UNPOILED: Todi ligger i det gröna hjärtat av Umbrien, Italiens enda gränsöverskridande region och en av dess mest charmiga. Todi har hyllats som Italiens mest livliga stad på grund av dess skönhet och äktheten i sin kultur och matlagning. Umbrien är en region som fortfarande känns relativt orörd av flodarna av utländska turister i Toscana. Todi är fortfarande stort och bebodd av italienarna som växte upp där. Den omgivande landsbygden - dock prickad med vackert restaurerade villor och slott - tenderar fortfarande främst av familjer som har blivit jordade och tittat efter sina olivlundar, grönsaksgårdar och vingårdar i generationer.
SÄKERHETER OCH FESTIVALER: Många av regionens arkitektoniska och konstnärliga höjdpunkter ligger i Assisi, Perugia, Orvieto och Spoleto och Spello, alla en lätt bilresa från vårt hus. De flesta städerna kan nås med bil inom en timme eller mindre. I många städer hittar du romanska eller medeltida kyrkor bortgjutna i en slingrande krig av kullerstensgator som slår ner sluttningar. Du kommer att upptäcka fresker, oljemålningar och konstskatter som rankas med Italiens finaste. I varje stad kan du njuta av lokalt producerad god mat och vin innan du går ut för att besöka sevärdheterna. Du kan anka till lokala hantverk eller vinbutiker, eller njut av panoramautsikt över solrosor i de varmare månaderna. Musik och dans firas på världsberömda utomhus sommarfestivaler: det finns Umbria Jazz i Perugia och The World of Two Worlds i Spoleto. Varje stad har en lokal sagra som firar lokala traditionella livsmedel. Det finns ännu mer jazz som spelats live i Orvieto i december. Du kan besöka vinmuseet nära vingårdarna i Torgiano och köpa handmålade keramik på ett antal butiker i närliggande Deruta. Njut av de berömda röda vinerna i Montefalco genom att turnera vingårdarna. Köp de rikt strukturerade Umbrian traditionella sängkläderna i flera butiker Todi själv.
I PIAZZA: Massor att se och göra i och runt Todi själv. Medan en eftermiddag dricker Campari eller cappuccino i Todi medeltida torget, som en av Italiens finaste. Och du behöver inte oroa dig för turister: Todi är en lugn hilltown fri från de galna folkmassorna i Toscana eller badorter. Besök stadens många bra restauranger, pizzerior och gelaterier - de kommer locka dig många gånger under hela vistelsen.

Quiet Location and Beautiful View

We loved our stay. The house and views are great. Out-of-the-way location, for those who love peace, quiet, and an authentic Italian experience. But plenty of nice daytrips and things to do within a short distance.

Lovely property in rural Umbria

Lovely property in a very rural position, we really enjoyed the stay here. The house is lovely, and the pool and views over to Todd were beautiful. The house is remote, so expect a good 10-15 minute travel along a small lane and 5 minutes along a farm track to the small hamlet. However, for those wanting relaxation away from the madding crowd, a very nice vacation awaits.

Peaceful retreat off the beaten path...

Lovely villa in the Umbrian countryside, about 15' minutes from Todi, on a country road surrounded by picturesque vistas. Great panoramas of Todi and surrounding hills. The villa had all the necessary requirements for a prolonged stay. Very nicely landscaped. The owner was easy to get in touch with, and there is a local caretaker, who is available to help, clean and even cook. Wi-fi was iffy, but probably par for the location. Great place for a gateway from the maddening crowds and about 1 hr drive from most surrounding places you would want to go visit, like Orvieto, Spoleto, Assisi and Civita di Bagnoregio.

Wonderful family holiday in the Umbrian countryside

We just spent two wonderful weeks at Villa Umbriana. We were a group ranging from 5 to 81 in age and everyone had a wonderful time. The house is very beautiful, tastefully renovated (even the architect in our group - normally very picky! - could not fault the renovations!) and very spacious. On the ground floor, there is a large living room, large kitchen, cloakroom, and a suite composed by a sitting room and an ensuite bedroom,. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms (one very large and en-suite), plus a family bathroom and two lovely balconies. The garden and outside areas are larger than we expected from the pictures. And the jewel is the swimming pool with its wonderful views... The fact that the swimming pool is fenced (accessed through a gate) was a big plus with kids. Coming from the UK, we had to self-isolate for five days on arrival, but Karen and the housekeeper (Triestina) were extremely supportive and helped us to organise grocery delivery. Todi is a lovely town and we went a couple of times for ice-cream in the afternoon - but other than that we were just happy to relax at the Villa. It is a very special place and we hope to be back soon!

Much needed vacay

This property was everything we were hoping for. Plenty of room, secluded and close enough to many places for sightseeing. The entire area is so charming. From the house we took a train into Florence for an overnight stay, drove to Sienna, visited Assisi and Todi. We made sure to plan our day trips so we could take advantage of the pool and it’s lovely pool. On our first night there we had Teristina prepare a meal for us and it was fabulous. She does not speak any English but happily chats away to you in Italian. Google translater worked really well until I lost the Wi-Fi signal, which is sketchy but your in the middle of almost nowhere you shouldn’t expect it to be perfect. The host, Karen corresponded very well with us when we had questions. Her information book was informative but I would say she should add a few things. Mostly where extra supplies are located. We just poked around and found what we needed. I would definitely book this villa for any future visits to this area.

Esperienza fantastica

Un luogo meraviglioso, una posizione magica, adatto a gruppi numerosi e non . Bellissime le stanze, piscina favolosa una proprietaria gentile e disponibile. I dintorni sono stupendi per passeggiare o visitare luoghi storicamente magici come lo splendido borgo di Todi. Un ricordo e un ringraziamento particolare alla governante della casa la signora Triestina che abita vicino e che è stata sempre disponibile e sorridente. Un grande valore aggiunto ad una proprietà su cui non c’è nulla da dire. I tramonti sulla vista di Todi dalla piscina sono un sogno. Da non perdere.

Stunning Country Villa

Our stay was wonderful! Karen was easy to reach through VRBO if we had any questions. Communicating with the property manager was a little difficult for us since she doesn’t speak English and we don’t speak much Italian. She was a sweet woman. We did have a translation app that proved to be quite helpful with that! The rooms were lovely, the outdoor areas were all so beautiful. The pool was much enjoyed by our entire family. Karen connected me with someone for cooking classes in the villa and I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed that night! We made a day of relaxing by the pool and then doing the cooking class that evening. I have already recommended this villa to friends and if we are able to return to Umbria again, we will absolutely try to rent this villa again. We simply didn’t want to leave! We felt at home as soon as we arrived. Thank you Karen!

The Wonderful Villa in the Umbrian Countryside

We spent the most wonderful week in enchanting Umbria and we stayed in this perfect home and cannot recommend it higher! The house and gardens are welcoming, comfortable and stunning. Karen was quite helpful during the arrangements and answered my questions without hesitation. Todi is a lovely town and we loved being close to it but also far enough away to relax in the country setting. We loved the view and food from the terrace of the restaurant in Todi called, “Pizza Cavour”. There was a “super moon”in the sky the night we dined there which we all decided was a gift from the gods or why right then and why was the sky so clear to witness such beauty. Umbria is a tourist’s dream come true. Each we drove to another hill town after having breakfast outside on of the patios beautifully landscaped. After seeing the particular sites of the town, we would have lunch and ooh and ahh over the local cuisine and wines. Back to our home away from ho e to swim and chill-out in the most wonderful pool one could imagine! And did I mention the view from the pool? The lovely town of Todi approximately 5 miles in the distance, overlooking the rolling hills of Umbria and 2 castles, gently resting in the valley just to put the cherry on the sundae. A few restaurants that we absolutely loved: Osteria Piazzetia Dell Erba in Assisi. (A remarkable place, not to be missed! The hippest menu, lovely terrace and great service.) Trattoria del Moro - Orvieto. (Incredible meal! Great day and lots to take in. We walked and walked and loved every twisting turn,) One MUST go to Civita Di Bagnoregio........words can not describe the experience. Do your homework and do not miss this gift! Amazing place and history awaits your visit! We had a fantastic lunch after the trek in Bagnoregio at the hotel, Romantica Pucci which again made us ooh and ahh so ardently that the two cooks came to our table to see what all the excitement was about! Spello was a other feast for the eyes, lovelier than lovely said we all! Another beautiful lunch was eaten at “Porta Venere” down a windy, cobble-stoned street and away from the other happy sight-seers! The terrace overlooked the valley and was quite cozy and the food was delicious. We were inspired by the owners suggestion to have her charming housekeeper cook dinner for us one evening and it was most definitely a treat! She prepared a full course meal, including a sumptuous wild boar ragout over fettuccine, hunted by her husband!

A beautiful spot to relax outside Todi

This is a beautifully restored and maintained villa outside Todi, Umbria. We were two couples, though there is room upstairs for another couple and two others (a total of four upstairs bedrooms, with a bath for three, and one in the master suite; the guest suite downstairs has its own bath). Each couple had a floor to themselves, with outside balconies or terraces for private morning coffee, if wanted. The bathrooms are clean, spacious, and provide baths or showers with good water pressure (not always a given). Each window offered a picturesque view, and the property had 54 geranium planters scattered about, always in full bloom. We spent a lot of time sitting under the pergola, eating together, or reading, or napping by the pool, which we also enjoyed for swimming. The caretakers live nearby and maintain the gardens and respond readily to any concerns, though we had none. The owner was very helpful in finding us people to give cooking lessons and make a special birthday dinner. Amazingly, one of our favorite restaurants was in the next hamlet, and we enjoyed our two visits there enormously. It is very hard to get a bad meal in Italy, but ones where the service and ambience and food are all comfortable, excellent, and reasonable are always special. The villa makes it easy to relax, and to make day trips to the hill towns nearby (like Assisi, Deruta, Spoleto, and Umbria's capitol, Perugia). We would drive to a town, explore, sit for a glorious two-hour lunch, come home, enjoy the pool (or watch world cup soccer!), and end the day watching the light fade slowly over Todi at the side of the pool. Todi itself is a quiet place, but it has some of the best gelato I've ever tasted, a wine bar with some of the best food in Umbria (think cod carpaccio with juniper berries and greens) and is a lovely town, not yet touristy, to explore. We will remember the drone of the bees at work on the vines overhead on the pergola (never bothered the humans below), the copious lavender and rosemary that surround the house, and the cherry tree heavy with fruit. It is a special place.

Traditional villa with breathtaking views!

If you'd like to immerse yourself in Umbrian life in a traditional, beautiful, fully-restored villa with the most spectacular views from nearly every window....then look no further! Very spacious, well-equipped, well-built villa up in the hills - 7 min drive to Todi, a gorgeous old town with many original buildings, several restaurants with more amazing views - 30-60mins drive to various other beautiful town such as Perugia, Spoletto or Orvieto. Though be warned....it will be a very tough decision....choosing between staying by the villa's fantastic pool with jaw-dropping views over to Todi......or getting in the car to visit these lovely medieval towns! Enjoy also, the delicious fresh figs and plums from the garden! The drive from Rome airport was an easy and straightforward 2hr journey. Thanks to Triestina who was so cheerful and kind looking after us (her with no English, and us with no Italian!)

A wonderful property in Umbria

We all had a wonderful -- fabulous time at the house. I can't really come up with the adjectives. The accomodations were so comfortable, the pool was great for the kids, the views were fantastic, and every morning I walked up into the hills for two hours, exploring the amazing landscape and hidden treasures up there. I love the area and the location of the house is just perfect. We had a fun dinner at Rosa dei Venti, the local restaurant, and two wonderful homemade meals by the wonderful local woman who takes care of the house. We also met one of the permanent expat neighbors, who came over for dinner one night.

Fantastic Villa Umbriana

What a beautiful home base from which to explore Umbria! We found the house to be well-equipped and charming. Our party of five (me, my girlfriend, my mother and my two teenage daughters) were comfortably accommodated. The house is set in a beautiful part of Umbia, just outside Todi, with a fantastic pool and garden. It was wonderful to eat outside at any hour of the day since the pergola offered nice shade. Triestina, the housekeeper, was quick to help us when we needed it. I would recommend this property without reservation to anyone who wants a beautiful vacation home in a marvelous setting.

Maison paradisiaque

La maison est superbe, décorée et meublée avec beaucoup de goût, fraîche pour les journées trop chaudes, chaleureuses si le temps se couvre un peu. L'emplacement est juste incroyable, maison perdue au bout d'un long sentier, calme et détente assurés. Le jardin est très agréable et parfumé de toutes les senteurs des lavandes, menthes, romarins et autres sauges qui entourent toute la maison. Les photos sont jolies mais ne représentent pas au plus juste l'endroit parfait où est implantée la villa. Je recommande vraiment pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis. Les lieux touristiques à visiter ne sont pas très loin.

FABULOUS ITALIAN COUNTRYSIDE DREAM VILLA!

My perfect dream vacation. Comfortable, tastefully furnished, updated converted farmhouse minutes from the ancient city of Todi. Every bedroom looks out onto the gorgeous Italian countryside. Fireplaces in almost every room of this amazing five-bedroom house. The perfect home base for exploring charming historic hill towns. Caretakers were more than helpful.

Fabulous Farmhouse!

Located at the end of a country road, this beautifully restored farmhouse is a perfect place to get away from it all. It was clean, comfortable and well maintained. Waking up to the sounds of cicadas, birds, bees and chickens was truly a delight! Spending lazy days reading by the refreshing pool, having long lunches outside, and taking afternoon walks were highlights for us. The proximity to Todi, Orvieto, Civita, Assisi and Perugia make it a great home base for exploring Umbria as well. Karen gave us great directions and recommendations in Todi that we all enjoyed. Thank you for a truly authentic Italian experience! Tracy

A dream come true

We had two magical weeks at Villanova. The house was a perfect fit for two families, and we loved spending as much time outside (by the pool or under the pergola) as indoors. We took numerous day trips to Assisi, Spoleto, Perugia, Orvieto and even further afield to Venice and Pompeii. I have traveled throughout Italy but never in Umbria, which is now my favorite part of Italy! Triestina, the housekeeper, cooked dinner for us on two occasions and we thoroughly enjoyed her expertise with local dishes. The kids (ranging in age from 14 to 20) loved seeing Italy from this very special perspective. We would love to come back someday. Thank you for an incredible vacation.

A Dream Come true: The Perfect Vacation Villa

Villanova is everything it was advertised to be and more. My direct communications with the owner assured me that I was not going to be disappointed in my choice. Karen was responsive, helpful and there were no hidden costs or surprises. Her directions were clear and when we reached the property, it was more than we had dared to hope. Her fabulous housekeeper, Triestina, was there to greet us and we had arranged for her prepare our dinner that first night. As I glanced at the kitchen counter, I could tell we were in for a treat! Everything was fresh, vegetables and herbs from her garden, fresh pasta, fabulous mozzarella and chicken that needed nothing but a fork to cut. Our first night was Magic, ten of us sitting outside under the pergola being served fabulous food by the sweetest woman in Italy. We were all speechless....pretty amazing for our group. When Triestina left, the kitchen was spotless. The house is beautiful, comfortable and unbelievably well equipped. We needed nothing,meverything was there. M The gardens are beyond beautiful and the pool area brought hours of pleasure to young and old alike. In the evening we would sit outside near the pool and watch as the children chased fireflies. Karen provides an informative binder with everything you could wish to know about the house and the area. There are restaurant recommendations which were terrific and we followed them and were not disappointed. The proximity of the house to the Umbrian hill towns is perfect. Within a ninety minute drive are: Assisi, Spoleto, Deruta, Perugia, Todi (a few miles away) just to name a few. We visited all of of those mentioned, as well as a beautiful mountain lake resort called Lake Trasimeno. We came from the San Francisco Bay Area and it was worth every dollar we spent. Our goal is to return in a few years and visit this magic place again. You will not be disappointed.

Perfect!

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely, comfortable house, which has everything you could wish for to enjoy a thoroughly relaxing holiday with the benefits of fascinating cultural destinations close at hand. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the house is only a short drive from Todi, a lovely town with many interesting buildings and good restaurants. Don't forget to try the wonderful Triestinas home cooking though!

Gorgeous villa set amid the Umbrian countryside

Situated down a quiet,white gravel road near the quiet hamlet of Torregentile, Villanova is set amongst the rolling Umbrian landscape and has a fantastic view of Todi (we especially loved the night-time view with all the lights twinkling in the distance). The villa has been restored to a very high standard and sleeps up to 10-12 people comfortably. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and well-decorated. The kitchen is well-equipped and we mostly dined outside under a lovely pergola at the rear of the property. You could also dine inside informally at the kitchen table, or more formally at the long dining table in the huge sitting/dining room. The pool is a delight and formed the focal point of 1-week stay. Surrounded by trees and with picturesque planting, you can while away the sunny hours reading, swimming, and snoozing. The villa has w-fi too so if you absolutely must go online you can! The Villa has a comprehensive "book" of helpful details to enable you to get the most out of your stay, including locations of supermarkets, restaurant recommendations, and ideas for day trips to places such as Spoleto and Perugia. The housekeeper Trestina is a fabulous cook and the complimentary meal she provided us for our first night at the villa was superb - not only home-cooked but we found out that she grows a lot of her own vegetables too. Although we don't speak Italian (apart from a few phrase book sentences) we managed to thank her for the meal. Todi is well worth a visit and is only a short 15-minute drive away. We made several trips to explore the town. We'd recommend taking the funicular railway that takes you up to the old centre of the town with interesting alleyways, antique shops and (most importantly) gelateria! You can walk along the old walls of the town and enjoy the magnificent views. We had a wonderful week at Villanova and would definitely come again!

Dream Italian Farmhouse

An idyllic country house with every amenity needed for a perfect vacation in Italy. We rented a car at the airport and found it a pleasant drive and appreciated the good directions that Karen provided. The views from the house, pool, and walks in the country were great. Todi is a lovely hilltop town with plenty of good restaurants and things to do. You are close enough to not feel isolated, but, far enough away to have complete quiet and privacy. We took a few day trips to nearby towns, but, were just as happy hanging out at the house and cooking meals together in the well stocked kitchen. All the rooms are generous in size, beautifully decorated, and you will be wanting for nothing at this beautiful property! Can't wait to go back!!

An Adult Family Vacation

Eight of us, my husband, myself, and 3 adult children and partners, spent a week last spring in this extraordinarily beautiful house. The kitchen and sitting areas are expansive and welcoming, and the bedrooms, especially the two large ones with en suite baths, are like stepping into a magazine article. It was too early for the pool, and the garden was just coming into flower, but we were able to enjoy eating on the terraces and sitting outside in the sun. For those who, like us, are in search of wonderful Italian cities, Orvieto, Perugia, and Spoletto are a day trip. and Todi itself has plenty to offer. I would note that there are not attractions within walking distance, not a town with a cafe or a market unless you drive. A real plus is Triestina, the housekeeper, who communicated with us in our rudimentary Italian, but would have made herself clear even if we spoke no Italian. Talking to her was enormous fun. She also cooked us a delicious celebratory dinner.

Italian paradise

This magical home that has a view of Todi from the yard is exquisitely decorated, each item showing divine taste. The house itself, built to maintain the original feeling of another time in Italy, is both beautiful and comfortable. The fenced-off pool area makes one feel like you are on the Riviera, with lush flowers and comfortable chaises. The location is ideal because we visited Assisi; Perugia; Orvieto; Montefalco and more, all day trips that are manageable and enlightening. We bought ceramics in Deruta, which is also a day trip. We highly recommend this charming home for the feel of real Italy. A favorite trip of mine; would definitely go back again and again.

Om värden

Värdens profilbild
I once worked as a journalist in Italy, which is when I fell in love with Umbria. At the end of the time I lived there I was able to realise my dream of creating a haven for friends and family in Umbria. I wanted a place I could always return for the food, wine and beauty of the place I had become so attached to. Our villa is very much that dream come true. Our project inspired me to study garden design in England.

Varför värden valde detta boende

Want to get away from stifling heat and thronging crowds of tourist towns in Italy? Then Umbria is a great choice. Our villa provides a thoroughy authentic experience with postcard-perfect views. Villa Umbriana was an ancient farmhouse whose original structure was lovingly restored.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Location, location, location with views, views views! The villa has natural shade and thick stone walls as it was built centuries ago from the stones of a medieval village. Here you won't sweat it out, baking on a bare hilltop in the hot summer months. (We have air conditioning for the hottest summers.) There are balconies with private seating and views, and the medieval walls lacing the our garden make Villa Umbriana unforgettable.
