Surrounded by cypresses and olive trees, this hilltop villa is the perfect place to soak up the Italian sunshine. Featuring elegant interiors inspired by classical style and a tranquil Mediterranean garden, we reckon you'll never want to leave. Each room features antique furniture and paintings, and we can just imagine sinking back into the leather sofa in the living room. In the garden, take a dip in the swimming pool, sunbathe on a lounger, or just settle back with a cool drink on the terrace – it's hard not to be enraptured by the views of the coastline. Prepare an Italian feast in the kitchen, which has a dishwasher, fridge, and oven, or enjoy a barbecue in the garden, then admire the sunset with a glass of wine in hand. This charming villa lies just a short drive from the beach in San Benedetto del Tronto, where you might savour seafood in a restaurant or take walks along the palm-lined promenade.

Hidden in the lush greenery of the Colfiorito plateau, this elegant villa lies in a small village between the Italian regions of Umbria and Marche. Fill that need for luxury and solitude, and surround yourself with the breathtaking vistas of the Italian countryside. Enjoy your own infinity pool, with plenty of space on the terrace and across the vast gardens for alfresco dining, and an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a plunge in the pool. With bedrooms sorted into five suites with their own bathrooms and living rooms – two with a double and single bedroom, and three with double bedrooms – everyone will have more than enough room to stretch their legs. There is even a cinema room with a projector and a basement playroom for children. Go for a game of ping pong under the lush canopies of the trees, or let the kids play in the gardens while you catch some rays on the row of sun loungers. The historic Art Nouveau style sets this villa apart, and its roots in the local area are apparent from the village chapel attached to the back of the home.

When it comes to exploring the local area, you're in for a treat – you'll already be immersed in the surrounding village, and you'll be just a short drive from the main shopping centre where you'll find some fantastic local restaurants and bars, as well as a supermarket for all the essentials you might need during your stay. A little further afield you'll be able to get on the highway and take a day trip to some of the culture-rich cities of the regions of Umbria and Marche.

Nice to haves

Dating back to the 11th-century, this watchtower is just as striking as its surroundings. Overlooking the Sibillini Mountains, you can admire the sweeping views while soaking in the hot tub or swimming in the pool. There is also an amphitheatre, beautiful gardens and a terrace with a barbecue – perfect for alfresco dining. Inside, the rooms unfold across two apartments and offer a unique sense of character. It’s worth noting there are a number of steps here so this may not be the best option for young children, but it’s the perfect setting for an adults-only escape. From here, you can follow hiking trails straight from the door, take the short drive to Amandola or adventure further afield towards the Adriatic coast.

Sit out on the balcony of this home and enjoy the view over the Umbrian Valley. The lush, green countryside is echoed in the home’s 3.5-hectare garden, where you’ll find an olive grove with 700 trees, alongside manicured lawns and terracotta terraces nearer the home. Breathe in the scent of oleander flowers and fig, plum and fruit trees as you make your way to the pergola framed by trailing plants – the perfect spot for an alfresco lunch cooked on the traditional wood oven. You’re likely to spend much of your time laying back on the sunbeds or swimming in the pool, but in the evenings, the glass gazebo is the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of local wine. Inside, as well as the main kitchen and grand living space, you’ll find a separate kitchen, sitting room and two bedrooms on the lower floor, making this a great space for two families or groups of friends.The historic town of Foligno is just 5km away, with Perugia a 40-minute drive and Siena only a little further in the distance.

Situated on the border of Tuscany and Umbria – two of Italy's most beloved regions – you'll find this beautiful villa. With plenty of space for a larger group, it's the ideal place to kick back and relax in the Italian sunshine, or to use as a base for your adventures in the surrounding countryside. 

With exposed stone walls, traditional shutters, and wooden ceiling beams, the house is bursting with traditional charm. You'll love selecting a book from the collection, and flopping down to enjoy a peaceful read. Or, you might like to head for the kitchen – whether you're planning a three-course feast or just serving some antipasti with wine, it has everything you need. Head outside and gather your fellow guests around the dining table before opening a bottle of Prosecco and making a toast to the good life. There's even a beautiful swimming pool where you can take a dip on hot days, or simply stretch out on a lounger. 

The medieval village of Fabro, with its 12th-century castle, is just a twelve-minute drive away, while Città Della Pieve is a little further. And, with close access to the motorway, you can easily drive to Orvieto, Terni, or even further afield to Florence and Rome for a day trip. Nature lovers will also be happy here – cycle, hike or horse-ride through the beautiful rolling landscapes, stopping off at the tiny hilltop villages along the way. 

Shades of Green

Playground

Garden Games

Wander through the gardens of this traditional Umbrian home and you’ll find yourself in a haven of natural tranquillity. 

From the wisteria-covered pergola and private pool to the multiple seating areas and perfectly positioned hammock, every detail has been considered to inspire total relaxation. So whether you’re enjoying a refreshing swim, staying cool in the shade or gathering for celebratory drinks and meals, every moment promises to be enriched by the natural beauty of this setting. 

Inside, you’ll find the interiors are elegant and simple – filled with a wonderful sense of tradition alongside a range of contemporary comforts. The living room provides the perfect spot for cosy movie nights by the fire, while the bedrooms set the tone for a rejuvenating night’s rest.   

For explorations beyond this private sanctuary, you’ll find beautiful hiking and riding trails through the surrounding countryside, while the majestic towns of Perugia, Orvieto and Assisi are all within driving distance. From sightseeing and wine tasting to strolling medieval cobbled streets and admiring spectacular views, this is the perfect setting for an adventure into Italy’s green heart.   

The Green Jewel 

Sauna

Lift Access

Greeted by the trickle of a baroque fountain and filled with the contrast of Umbrian sunlight against dark marble floors, gilded bannisters and ming vases, stepping into this villa is like entering a Renaissance painting. It’s the kind of home where the baths, beds and even the billiard table come with claw feet. Sparkling chandeliers illuminate oil paintings in the grand lounge and candelabra light the basement taverna, where there’s a vintage jukebox, chintzy sofas, rows upon rows of aged spirits and a long bar to serve them at. The chrome and steel kitchen is restaurant-standard, with a built-in tiled barbecue sticking to the region’s rustic food tradition. Hire a private chef to make the most of the local produce, and dine in the formal dining room amidst the antique dressers and portraits, or enjoy alfresco, under the portico in the garden. The book-lined study with its gilded desk is ideal for catching up on a bit of work, and you can put up that barrier between work and play with a steamy sauna session to unwind. Outside, you’ll find a lap-sized swimming pool and cement tennis court, both with changing areas. Lawn games and a wooden treehouse should keep little ones entertained for hours. Should you wish to venture beyond the grounds of this palatial villa, the ancient village of Corciano is nearby and it’s a 10-minute drive to the shores of Lake Trasimeno.  

Caravaggio's Masterpiece

Step into a world of traditional charm at this Umbrian home, just outside the medieval hamlet of Montecchio. With its beamed ceilings, brick fireplace, terracotta tiled floors and time capsule of curios, the living room feels like the epitome of rural romance. That is until you see the kitchen. With its marble farmhouse sink, corner hearth and myriad culinary artifacts decorating the walls, you’ll find it infinitely hard to resist fixing up a nonna-approved feast, courtesy of the vegetable garden outside. The rustic decadence continues upstairs in the two comfortable bedrooms, with the canopied bed in the master bedroom promising a sumptuous night’s sleep. Thanks to the home’s position on a slope, both floors have direct access to the lush, green grounds. With a whopping 1,500 square metres of gardens to enjoy, including a swimming pool, there’s no end to the outdoor relaxation on offer. After a decadent day of luxuriating in the pool and exploring the surrounding nature, fire up the barbecue to enjoy an alfresco meal under the pergola while you watch the sunset from your hill-view haven. 

Spirit Of Radio

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

Nestled among the beautiful woods and cultivated meadows of the Umbrian hills, you'll find this sprawling four-hectare estate. The stone façade of this imposing villa is surrounded by olive groves and cypress trees, providing a peaceful space for open-air privacy in the 1000sqm garden. Sit on the manicured lawn beside the blooms as you sip your morning coffee and admire the magnificent view, or dive into the glistening pool to begin your day with a swim (yes, there is a diving board). Inside, the villa exudes the typical charm of rural Umbrian homes, with its wooden-beamed ceilings, terracotta floors and large characteristic stone fireplace. The traditional patterned armchairs, colourful artwork and rustic furniture all add to the multi-layered design. You'll have plenty of room to entertain guests in the indoor and outdoor kitchen and dining spaces, but if you don't feel like cooking, ask your host to help you arrange a private chef. Or, if you want to explore the area's bars and restaurants, the ancient Italian town of Massa Martana is just a short drive away.

Casa Cicognola

The Italian countryside has a magnetic charm. Could it be the holy trinity of wine, food and verdant views? Definitely. Or the temperate Mediterranean climate? Certainly. But it’s also because it’s where you’ll find glorious holiday homes like this one. 

Set in the hills of San Casciano dei Bagni and Chiusi, this magnificent stone farmhouse straddles the border between two fairytale regions – Tuscany and Umbria. Explore both of their charming towns, cultures, and cuisines with ease from this central base. We recommend the neighbouring hillside towns of Cetona and San Casciano dei Bagni, but if you’d like to venture a bit further afield, the nearby railway station in Chiusi allows for breezy day trips to Cortona, Siena and Montepulciano. 

But for all that, you'll have more than enough to keep you busy with all this home has to offer. The well-selected modern furniture and fixtures blend beautifully with the terracotta floors, brick-vaulted ceilings, stone arches and fireplaces. The classical rustic interior transports you to the past, especially with the countryside views from nearly every room. 

And there’s a lot to see – sitting proudly on a five-hectare estate, the home looks out onto both cultivated land and woodland, a lush garden of flowers and cypress trees. Outside, the rolling landscape is best enjoyed by the shimmering stone pool or the romantic, shaded pergola. In the heat of the afternoon, read in the cool of the study before returning to the patio. Lounge until sunset, where the fiery colours linger longer, and are best enjoyed alongside a bold Tuscan red from the cellar.

Cypress Hill

As far as villas go, you don't get much more 'hilltop' than this. Soak up the views across the Umbrian hills towards the city of Todi, a tableau so beautiful so you'll never want to leave. The scents of jasmine, lavender, and roses follow you down the stone steps to the infinity pool, which is surrounded by sun loungers and a shaded gazebo. The views take centre-stage in the villa, too – large windows surround the space, where you'll find a country-style kitchen with an island and a cosy living space with a corner sofa and fireplace. A marble staircase leads upstairs to the bedrooms, where you'll wake up each morning to similarly spectacular country vistas. Sip your coffee outside on the terrace, then spend the morning sunbathing on the perfectly manicured lawn. Take the 10-minute drive to Todi to wander the cobbled streets and explore local restaurants – you might recognise some of the plazas from Italian movies. Pick up some local wine to enjoy with a barbecue back at your villa, and savour a glass while admiring the stunning sunset over the surrounding hills.

Sweet Jasmine

Lined with cherry trees blossoming elegant flowers in the springtime and juicy fruits in the summer, this country farmhouse invites guests to experience the silence of nature on its impressive grounds bursting with greenery and beautiful wildlife. 

Inside, simple designs accentuate the home's original features and traditional Italy – think terracotta floors, exposed wooden beams and floods of natural daylight via the large windows overlooking the garden and surrounding landscape. When it's sunny, you'll likely want to spend much of your time outside. Open up the living room's French windows and find your perch under the pergola – here, you'll get to take in the tranquillity of the meadows and watch the grazing horses of the surrounding countryside passing by. 

Take a dip in the private swimming pool, or soak up the sunshine on the loungers in total seclusion – the natural shade of the trees fringing the garden fragrance the air and offer cooler areas to relax out of the sun if preferred too. The ideal haven for those seeking a calming atmosphere and privacy immersed in a rural landscape – this home is likely to leave you feeling refreshed and revitalised after just one night. 

Set in the greenest and one of the most majestic regions of Italy, the farmhouse is just a short drive away from the Etruscan town of Orvieto – well worth a visit. Steeped in history, you'll find many castles and churches dotted throughout the scenic hills and villages of the Umbria region. With three mountain bikes available at home, adventure seekers will have a field day exploring the unpaved roads and trails in the surrounding woodlands. 




Silence of Nature 

DVD Library

Heated Pool

This is a rural Italian escape to remember. This 18th-century home has been restored using local natural materials, ensuring its Tuscan heritage is in full view. The villa stands in unspoiled gardens within seemingly endless fields and woodland – you’ll feel a million miles from the hustle and bustle, but the shops, restaurants, and thermal springs of San Casciano dei Bagni are less than 5 kilometres away. You’ll need a car to explore the area, but your efforts will be rewarded with visits to some of Tuscany’s most picturesque spots. 


Italian Grove

There’s something truly unique about this home, lost in the midst of Umbria’s stunning countryside – first of all, it’s more than a home. The main building is a historic tower, which gives you the sense of staying in your own fairytale castle. With three additional buildings as part of the property, everyone in your party is sure to find their own private slice of tranquil paradise. 

Set in the middle of a lush, twelve-acre parkland and boasting sweeping views over the surrounding hills, this is one dream country escape – add to it the glistening swimming pool and the rooftop terrace with its unparalleled vistas and we think you’ll fall under the spell of this home just as we have. 

Inside, you’ll find all the rooms emanating exactly the kind of warmth and cosiness you’d expect from a rural Italian abode – from the warm fireplace in the main tower to all the snug bedrooms and charming nooks, there’s more than ample space for everyone to have a relaxing holiday. 
Organise delicious communal meals, with a choice of outdoor and indoor dining areas, and gather for evenings of drinks in the garden, just as the sun begins to set over the hills. 

When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find plenty of interesting sights to visit, including the nearby town of Spoleto, full of history and culture.

This rustic Italian retreat looks out over a peaceful Umbrian valley, yet it’s only a short walk into the historic centre of Amelia for the local cheese shop, bars, bakeries and grocery shops. Covered outdoor lounges beneath rose-dappled pergolas and a summer kitchen embrace the bucolic life, while the modern swimming pool keeps things in the 21st century.  Inside, it feels like the old world in the open kitchen, living and dining room with a working stone hearth for chilly evenings. Each bedroom has a set of French windows opening up to the first-floor or ground-floor terraces and one bedroom has its own entrance from the garden.  

L'Ameria

Set out over three levels, with a different perspective over the stunning landscapes around every corner, this vast hilltop villa is guaranteed to impress. The interior is pure traditional Tuscany, with brick archways, exposed beams and terracotta flooring to ground you as you wander from room to room. 

Each of the individually decorated bedrooms brings its own charm, while the main bedroom – with direct patio access and stunning marble en-suite is set to dazzle even the most seasoned of travellers. The open-plan seating area and dining room form an integral heart of the home and would be the focus almost anywhere else. However, life in Tuscany is best lived outdoors, and you're blessed with a number of balconies, rooftop terraces, poolside patios and landscaped gardens (plus seating areas in each one) that ensure there's always a corner to claim as your own. We imagine you'll spend most of your days sprawled out by the pool, only interrupting your tanning time to grill some lunch and take part in sporadic table tennis tournaments.

The surrounding area is well worth exploring. In under ten minutes, you can reach the timeless medieval town of Cetona. Here, the scent of cypress trees fills the air as you explore the winding streets of one of Italy's most beautiful towns. Slightly further afield, you're also within an hour of Val d'Orcia, one of Tuscany's six world heritage sites and the subject of countless Renaissance paintings.

Maremma Amara

You’ll find this rustic villa set among Tuscany’s rolling hills and endless countryside. Inside, there’s a warm ambience thanks to the terracotta tiles, homespun furnishings and farmhouse-style kitchen. If you’ll be spending time outside, we bet you’ll be relaxing by the private pool with a refreshing beverage in hand. Spend afternoons dipping in and out of the water before sitting down to an Italian-inspired feast at the alfresco dining table. 

If exploring sounds like a good idea, take the short drive to charming Chiusi for a stroll around the honey-hued streets and an espresso in a traditional cafe. Should a day trip be on the cards, travel north to Arezzo – visit the hilltop cathedral, Basilica di San Domenico and the imposing Medicean Fortress. Return to your abode in the early evening for a glass of wine or two on the terrace followed by a night of blissful sleep in the comfortable bedrooms.

Sunshine Burst

Juicer

Traditional and cosy, this villa has all the hallmarks of an Umbrian getaway. The private pool is open in the summer and boasts panoramic views of the surrounding hills. Indoors, there's plenty of character to admire – the home was built in 1616, after all. Our favourite spot is the conservatory-style lounge, with its large windows showing off the scenery. Two bedrooms are located in a separate annexe, making it ideal for those wanting a bit more space and privacy. As for location, you'll be based near the medieval village of Monte Castello di Vibio and within easy driving distance of Todi, Perugia, and Orvieto.

Umbrian Touch

Standing high and proud above sea level, this turreted fortress gazes down at the stunning, surrounding countryside. Planted neatly between the delights of Tuscany and Umbria and with Lake Trasimeno in the foreground, a medieval trail of monuments, spas, and villages await to be explored. The villa itself is like an ancient towerhouse, rising up between the trees. The 360-degree view from its highest point overlooks the vast grounds, so you can survey the lands like a king or queen. Kids can play Rapunzel in the tower, or run around on the lawn and splash in the pool. With so many sheltered seating spots, from terraces to balconies, there’s plenty of spots to escape with a good book and bask in the peace and quiet. A cute, consecrated chapel sits within the grounds, should you be visiting for nuptials, and the four-poster master bed with its velvet curtains is the stuff of honeymoon suite dreams. With pines, cypresses, vivid blooms, and even an orchard and vegetable garden, this home is suitably overflowing with flora to sit within the green heart of Italy. 

Flora Fortress

This glorious villa is ready to welcome you on an idyllic Italian lakeside break. Based just a short drive from the blue waters of Bolsena Lake, this 20th-century Italian farmhouse has been respectfully renovated to keep the original features that give this home its unique character – with exposed beams of chestnut wood, dramatic round vaults and beautiful terracotta floors. We love the contemporary, minimalist style that they’ve blended in with the retro feel, making the home feel absolutely charming.

We absolutely love the dining area, where you can feast on Italian suppers of soup and risotto all together. There are two large living areas, giving you plenty of room to stretch out and relax – one featuring a lovely fireplace where you can cosy up in colder months. There’s even a ping pong table where you can challenge your loved ones to a table tennis game or two. Outside, you’ll find huge, lush expanses of green parkland, as well as a private pool where you can take a refreshing dip.

That Old Chestnut

Whether you’re in search of a celebratory stay, an action-packed adventure or a relaxing retreat, this restored farmhouse welcomes you to experience it all in true Italian style.  

Located in the green heart of Umbria, just a short drive from the hilltop towns of Collazzone and Todi, every detail of this setting sings with charm and character. From the terracotta tones and rustic stone to the personal touches and contemporary comforts, the owners have styled each room to feel warm and welcoming. So whether you’re cooking with fresh local produce in the fully equipped kitchen, relaxing in the air-conditioned bedrooms or gazing at the views from the first-floor terrace, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

Outside, days can be spent strolling through olive groves, lounging by the pool, reading in the shade and sipping sunset drinks on the terrace. By night, the outdoor dining table transforms into the perfect setting for magical barbecue meals – filled with the warmth and tradition of Italian living. And for explorations further afield, it’s just a short drive to the village of Pantalla, while the close proximity to the towns of Perugia, Spello and Assisi will ensure your stay is filled with the historic charm of central Italy.

Stepping outside, the garden welcomes you to bask in the idyllic beauty of this location.

When you’re inspired to explore beyond this sanctuary, you’ll find it’s just a short drive to the region's most beautiful medieval hill towns. Days can be sightseeing, hiking, and sampling delicious local cuisine whilst savouring the unique charm of this special landscape. 

Villa Serenity  

Surrounded by olive groves and rolling Umbrian countryside, this rustic farmhouse retains its original character and charm. We loved the timber and exposed brickwork ceilings, Venetian plaster walls and traditional furnishings that make the place feel like home. Wake up to a light breakfast in the charming kitchen then spend your day lounging by the secluded pool or floating about in its cool water. 

Enjoy a quiet moment with a good book on the wisteria-covered pergola, surrounded by the scent of potted lavender, before heading out to explore. Stroll around the village of Panicale, right on your doorstep, or drive over to Perugia for a tour of the excavations under San Lorenzo cathedral, followed by a mosey around Porta Sole, the city’s creative quarter. When dusk falls, pick out a family-run restaurant for a selection of hearty local dishes.

Single-Level Home

This elegant apartment is located in the main square of the charming town of Città della Pieve. It’s in Umbria but is just 7 kilometres from Tuscany, making this home a great choice of base if you plan on seeing more of Italy. We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. The apartment is equipped with everything you might need for a short break, including a desk for those working remotely during their stay. 

Italian Tastes

Arriving at this Umbrian villa, you wouldn’t think it was a new build – it’s got all the character and charm of an old, Italian farmhouse with brick-lined, arched windows and a terracotta roof. It’s built with local stone and embraces organic architecture. Blending in with its bucolic surroundings, it looks out over the Oasi di Alviano nature reserve – home to protected Umbrian flora and fauna. It’s a short drive to Terni to explore ancient ruins and local cuisine in family-run restaurants and a traditional medieval hilltop town awaits at Todi nearby.

The first thing that catches the eye is the inviting, Roman-style swimming pool that looks out over the fauna-filled valley and patchwork fields to hazy hills in the distance. A loggia-style dining area houses a table for the group and a barbecue grill, all with that stunning view before you. Steal away to the olive grove and curl up in a hammock with a holiday read.

Inside, antique and vintage pieces throughout add to the old farmhouse feel of the home, alongside wooden ceilings and terracotta tiled floors. A huge double-sided fireplace sits between the dining and living room for cosy evenings in. The view from the arched window in here is simply sublime – framed like a picture on the exposed stone wall. Up on a mezzanine level, you’ll find a secluded little reading nook to hide away in.  

New Old World

Just a ten-minute drive away you'll find the beautiful town of Todi, where shopping, dining and tourist opportunities await. When it comes to unforgettable summer getaways filled to the brim with sunshine, Italian wine and poolside ponderings, we cannot recommend this home enough.

The view from this 13th-century tower-turned-villa could be the envy of every Italian landscape painter. The hills of the Monte Rufeno national park, kissed golden at sunset and sunrise, sprawl before you and there’s probably no better place to take it all in than from the edge of the infinity pool. If the Italian sun gets too much, retreat to the lounge and dining area beneath the vine-dappled pergola – there’s a traditional stone-built pizza oven and grill out here for the chef of the group to try some regional classics alfresco. 

You can still dine with a view indoors, thanks to the sunroom with its walls of glass – the ideal spot for breakfast. While the rest of the tower and annexe is all wood-beam ceilings and terracotta floors, the kitchen feels sleek and modern with a dedicated wine fridge to chill your orvietos and pinot grigios. Apart from aspiring chefs, there’s plenty to entertain all kinds of visitors here – hit the gym and unwind with a sauna session after, head to the media room for a movie night or tuck yourself away with a book from the big collection of holiday reads. Winding your way up the staircases of the old tower, the view gets better and better. You’ll find bedrooms on the upper levels, with fabulous antique beds and ensuites – some with slipper tubs for a long soak.

Out here on the Tuscan- Lazio-Umbrian border, hiking trails snake through the Monte Rufeno national park and vineyards tumble town the hillsides (in fact, there’s a winery on the estate). Should you wish to stock up on supplies or explore the medieval streets of the nearest picturesque Tuscan town, Orvieto is a short drive away.  

The Landscape Artist

A trip to rustic Tuscany is always a good idea – and staying in this beautiful home seals the deal. This gorgeous pale stone house is tucked just outside of the small town of Palazzone in the Tuscan countryside. Far-reaching views of the lush countryside of Tuscany and Umbria make for a magnificent backdrop, complementing the centuries-old trees, olive groves, and meadows that surround the home. This is an idyll, where the scent of lavender carries on the breeze. 

The garden is a haven of tranquillity and natural beauty. Float in the swimming pool while you watch bees bob around the flowers, the hum of insects the only sound to disturb the peace. Spend hours at the alfresco dining table, turning languid lunches into lively dinners as the sun sinks in the sky and the wine is poured more freely. 

When the Tuscan sun is at its strongest, shelter in the traditional living room, beneath wooden beams. The villa is cool and calm, with enough room for everyone to enjoy their own space. 

You might like to drive out to explore the region, popping into Palazzone to eat pizza in the much-loved restaurant. The town is famous for its wine production, and is a far offshoot of the Chianti region – you can happily spend an afternoon or two visiting the local vineyards and sampling the wine. Your host’s family produces their own wine and olive oil – add some freshly baked bread and local cheese, and you have the makings of a perfect lunch.
