Description Nestled in the Hills: Umbertide

Escape to this farmhouse retreat set in an agricultural estate overlooking the Tiber Valley of the Perugia region. One of four apartments housed in the historic country home, there are vast communal gardens and a shared swimming pool to while away the days. But if you don’t fancy being sociable, there’s also a private alfresco sitting area back at the apartment. Surrounded by rolling green hills and oak forests, the home feels blissfully secluded, yet you’re in a prime location to explore both Tuscany and Umbria. Get off to a flying start in the riverside town of Umbertide, just 8 kilometres away.

Home truths:
*While one of the bedrooms isn’t photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. One of the bedrooms has a double bed which can be converted into a twin bed. Just request your preference with the host in advance.
*There is ample private parking on the grounds of the estate.
*This home is one of four apartments housed in a historic farmhouse, and there are two separate cottages within the grounds. You’ll share the swimming pool and wider grounds.
*This ground-floor apartment has internal steps which may be unsuitable for guests with restricted mobility.
*There's no air con in this home as typical of Italian farmhouses, but the thick walls and shutters keep things cool.
