We could get used to this – a rustic Italian villa that oozes charm, surrounded by lush Umbrian countryside. A short drive takes you to the shops and cafes of medieval Città della Pieve, and charming destinations like Trasimeno Lake and Perugia are within easy reach too. This is a seriously good spot. In the home itself, Persian rugs sit adorn the polished tiled floors, lending a feeling of laid-back luxury, while a grand fireplace takes centre stage in the open living area. The kitchen is dominated by stainless steel and provides everything you need to realise your culinary dreams. Then, share your meals with nine of your favourite people at the garden table outside, with views of the countryside as your backdrop. Handily, there is also a separate, self-contained annexe for those who require some extra privacy. It comes with its own kitchen, en-suite and billiard table. Outside, the large, inviting pool is where we suspect you’ll spend most of your time. The well kept garden surrounding the villa is an extremely relaxing place to unwind – get the outdoor pizza oven on and set the world to rights until the sun goes down. Then do it all again... tomorrow.
