This beautifully renovated farmhouse sits on a 220-hectare estate, surrounded by lush greenery and sweeping views of the Umbrian countryside. It’s full of period furniture, including four-poster beds, so it won’t appeal to everyone, but we like it for its romantic charm. The alfresco dining area and the poolside are our favourite parts of the home – the vistas are wonderful. Exploring the grounds, you may find a hidden lake where you can fish and swim. A fifteen-minute stroll will take you to the medieval village of Saragano, but we recommend hiring a car so you can visit Perugia and Todi.

Home truths:
*We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
*Your host can provide a high chair for little ones on request.
*One of the bedrooms isn’t air-conditioned. There are portable fans here.
*One of the bedrooms is housed in the pool house, so you won’t all be sleeping under one roof.
*While not every bedroom or bathroom has been photographed, we expect the style and standard to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*This is a rustic, traditional home, so the style may not be to everyone’s taste.
