Holiday Rental Description

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.
