Tucked away in the Umbrian countryside, this traditional villa has tranquillity running through its core. While the upper level is reserved for the owner’s family, there’s more than enough space on the lower level for a family or group of friends to enjoy a comfortable stay. And the cherry on top is the outdoor space. Sun-kissed terraces, shady alfresco dining spots and a private pool – what’s not to love? When you’re ready to explore, it’s a mere fifteen-minute drive to Puglia, where authentic Italian cuisine awaits.

About Perugia

In the heart of picturesque Umbria, the walled city of Perugia radiates history down every winding cobbled alleyway. Sitting atop a hill, streets stacked on top of each other are crowned at the tip with the jutting spire of Piazza IV Novembre with its ancient Cathedral.
