This was by far the best apartment we have stayed in. It is part of a beautiful old Italian villa set among vine fields and olive plantations, with wonderful views across valleys to the blue Umbrian hills. The apartment is spacious yet homely, full of local colour, extremely well-equipped, spotlessly clean and largely furnished with 19th-century pieces fitting the atmosphere of the house. The grounds are also very spacious and beautiful, with swimming pool and paths leading off towards the lovely open fields. The owner is an exceptionally friendly, courteous and helpful person, doing far more for us than could reasonably have been expected (for example when our hired car broke down 10 miles away, at about 10.30 pm, he fetched us back, arranged for the car to be towed away and later drove us 15 miles to the railway station so we could collect a replacement). There are several very beautiful and characteristically Umbrian villages/towns (Bevagna, Montefalco, Spello) within 10 miles, and further afield, but only 30-60 minutes' drive away, many famous towns/cities including Assisi, Perugia, Spoleto, Orvieto, Todi, as well as Lake Trasimeno and, a little further, Lake Bolsena, and of course wonderful mountain roads (we especially liked the one over Mount Subasio near Assisi). In most of these places there are paintings and buildings of world-class quality and importance. Many parts of the area (e.g. Montefalco and Orvieto) are also famous for their wines and olive oils - and Perugia for its chocolate. It would be a delightful place simply to relax in, but in order to look around a car is essential. I recommend it as strongly as possible and without any reservation.
