Magical Reunion!
This was truly a trip of a lifetime and staying at this Villa was the smartest I ever made. We were a group of 24; one toddler, and the rest aged 18-70. The property and villa was immaculate. We were greeted by Bianca who made sure everything was right, and served a meal, we had planned ahead, that was delicious. Food kept coming, and our quests were in awe.
The dining room/living room area is in the separate one story building where you could get breakfast, coffee, and just sit and relax.
The living quarters were in a 3 story beautifully decorated building. Three apartments on the top floor had fans because in August it can get quite warm, but the evenings cooled down and sleeping was pleasant. Each apartment had a pullout sofa in a separate sleeping area, and a modernly equipped kitchen with a stove, refrigerator and dishwasher. There was one apartment on the bottom level that was handicapped accessible.
Because we had rented the entire villa we had access to the main kitchen and the poolside grill. We had many lovely meals outside looking at the stars, or eating by the gorgeous pool!
Behind the pool was a huge sunflower field. All the views were to die for!
The property is out of the way and you feel very secluded, but we were able to get to Florence, Rome, and Modena in long day trips. There are many pretty little sitting areas, and although we were a large group, you could find a private retreat when the need arose.
Meeting and getting to know the owner, Grace, was another treat! What a lovely lady she is and we had the pleasure of visiting the rest of the Villa facilities which were down in the main town near her home. This is where the tennis court and spa were located. We had a lovely lunch and got to know more about the family which was our favorite part of the trip.
Although I do not speak Italian, Bianca worked hard with her computer to translate, and Grace was able to get me to understand most of what she was saying. They were wonderful hosts and lovely people.
We had an problem with the water one day and Grace was there in a flash and everything was rectified in minutes.
I don't feel the pictures on the website do the Villa justice. I was very pleased that each apartment had it's own charm and that everyone had the feeling that they were all special guests. Umbria was a magical surprise in itself. So much beauty!
I will never forget out time in Umbria, or meeting Grace and Bianca. We have made new friends.
Enjoy!
