About this property

Il Berneto for your vacation with friends and family

Il Berneto is an all purpose holiday villa with a swimming pool, on the border of Tuscany and Umbria: the ideal choice for your perfect holiday in the Italian countryside.

The villa sits about 500 meters above sea level in 300 acres of flowered fields, olive groves with woodlands that have stunning views of the Umbrian hills. It is built entirely of local stones and was formerly a farmhouse that was erected on the ruins of the ancient 'Castel Brandetto”, built in 1000 AD: the original walls of the castle can still be seen in the back of the house. Last renovation in 2008.

The property includes an expansive garden, the Aia, with a lovely grass field and beautiful trees, a beautiful swimming pool, and 1000 olive trees that produce traditional Umbrian olive oil every year. The swimming pool, 14 meters in length, is discretely placed a few meters from the house, just out of sight, enjoying complete privacy. Il Berneto can host up to 20 people in summer. Supermarket, coffee shops and restaurants at walking distance.

Our stay was even better than imagined! The house and property are so beautiful and well equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed and more, there are indoor and outdoor toys for kids, tons of bathrooms and an amazing pool! We stayed as a group of 3 families visiting from the States and loved exploring the region and village. The host Martina is very responsive and knowledgeable. Angelino comes everyday to maintain the pool/grounds and to keep things sparkling. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime!

Huge house, amazing location, great facilities, brilliant location to cafe/shops. Recommend the truffle hunting trip and the chefs who came to cook were exceptional. Excellent communication before and during and the house was excellent for our extended family (4 families, two with children). The swimming area was the best we’ve stayed at with plenty of sunbeds and lovely views.There isn’t really a main area to eat outside which has some shade, eg for dinner. There is a barn that is set back so comfortable for when raining, but if you want to eat outside by the view you have to carry the tables out and there isn’t anywhere with a little shade. A terrace would be a great addition.

Centrally located between Umbria and Tuscany, this property is perfect for those interested in experiencing everything these two regions have to offer. The check-in process was seamless, and the property manager was always in touch via text to ensure our well-being. As a family of eight, we found everything we needed readily available, and the additional supplies provided were a welcome touch. Don't forget to make reservations at "7" Restaurant, located just a quarter mile down the road from the house. It offers an unforgettable dining experience. We also highly recommend booking their truffle hunting tour. Lastly, there is a supermarket conveniently located just down the driveway, making it easy to access any essentials. Our overall experience was fantastic, and we created many cherished memories during our stay here.

An Amazing Place to stay in Umbria

Our friends had stayed at Il Berneto previously and recommended it, so we had high expectations and our visit exceeded our expectations in every possible way. The house itself is fantastic, with plenty of room for our group of ten people (two families, and could easily fit more), the property is gorgeous, the pool is excellent with a one in a million view of the cute medieval town of Monteleone. We stayed a week, and we spent some days just in the local village and at the pool, and some days travelling to nearby towns. It was a great, relaxing way to visit Italy, and our 10-16 kids enjoyed the pool time mixed with cultural experiences . . and they enjoyed walking to the Gellateria every day (as we enjoyed walking to the coffee shop). It was a great stay - the hosts were excellent and super informative and helpful at every turn. The location was absolutely majestic. It was all very much, excellent.

Fabulous view!

The greatest advantage that this place has is the view from the garden and the large swimming pool looking the view. It is amazing!!!! Otherwise other wonderful aspects about Il Berneto is the size of the house with many bedrooms, easy walk to gelato shop & cafe, restaurants & the yearly village festival in 2nd week of August. Il Berneto is fantastic place for a large gathering of family and friends with numerous number of bedrooms & bathrooms, different living spaces & 2 kitchens. Family room with bunk beds can sleep up to 6 persons, another bunk bed room sleeps 4 persons. Other rooms are double beds and all rooms with air con. Martina and Angelino were wonderful and responsive to our requests very quickly, if anything was missing. Delightful to wake up in the morning to see new swim floats that Angelino had organised for us. 5 stars for Il Berneto, we will be coming back!!

Special family vacatio

We had a wonderful week at Il Berneto. Located close to a beautiful and picturesque medieval town with a gelateria, a coffee bar and the fabulous Seven Cafe just a short walk away, the property is a serene escape with beautiful vistas. The house is large and easily accommodated our extended family of 10. There are lots of play spaces, a foosball and ping-pong table, a garden with easily accessible fresh produce, and a fabulous, refreshing pool. Angelino is the very helpful groundskeeper, and Martina is the very helpful and responsive owner. She recommended Natalina who prepared a delicious celebratory dinner on our last night, and led us in a pasta making evening early in our stay. Martina told us about several festivities in Monteleone which we enjoyed very much. The house is located conveniently for day trips to Orvieto, Perugia, Assisi and the delightful Città di Pieve (which is very close by). It was a wonderful week, and one we will never forget.

In sum, Il Berneto was the absolute best rental property I have stayed at in Italy or rented with VRBO.Check-in was seamless - Martina was very communicative and upon arrival we had a thorough and fun tour from Angelino. The property exceeded expectations and was even more beautiful in person. The bedrooms (with AC) were perfect and there were plenty of bathrooms. We took advantage of the two kitchens as we were able to grocery shop at the family-run store down the road. Everyone was able to gather together and also have alone time in the various rooms, each with its own character and charm. The villa is so incredible you may not want to leave the grounds.The location was perfect for us as we wanted the ability to walk into town to get groceries or visit restaurants. We also took day trips to other towns, wineries and natural sites. It was a very easy drive from the FCO Airport and close to two train stations so we could do a day trip to Florence and also pick up guests coming in by train. A bonus was Martina's recommendations - she gave us wine shop recommendations (shout out to Umbrin Wine Shop who did the most incredible tasting for us at the villa), nail salons, wineries etc. Martina made sure we were able to do anything and everything we could think of (she arranged for chefs to come to the house for our final dinner).Thank you to Martina, her family, and Angelino for the incredible hospitality and and unforgettable stay. We will definitely be back.

Charming Villa!

Il Berneto is lovely. The house is beautiful with lots of old world charm. From both the house and the pool there is a great view of the local town. We were a group of 14 and had plenty of space. We made great use of the pool, ping pong table and washing machine. The wine opener also got plenty of use! We made trips to several great wineries in Montepulciano. We also enjoyed visiting Orvieto, Civita di Bagnoregio and the hot springs at Terme di Saturnia. Having a cafe and store at the end of the driveway was very convenient. Everyone could wake up on their own schedule and walk down for coffee or breakfast - making the mornings very relaxing. We also enjoyed being able to walk to Cafe Seven for great food and hospitality. One night we ordered food from restaurant L’Ape Regina and Martina arranged for Anna to come help serve dinner and clean up - such a treat. Martina also helped arrange transportation to Siena for the Palio festivities. We loved our time at Il Berneto. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Thank you Martina for sharing your beautiful home and being a charming hostess.

This charming Italian Farmhouse was glorious. It perfectly accommodated our visiting family and friends. It was a great jumping off point for Florence and Rome. But the Umbrian countryside was not to be missed, including a trip to Assisi and Orvieto.Everything about the house was in good order. The villa was well stocked and very easy to live in. We were there for 25 days and found our time relaxing and fun.The seven bedrooms and bathrooms are spread between four floors. There was particular excitement about the bedroom at the very top where views are spectacular. The swimming pool was well used by our family and friends. It was serviced daily and always sparkling.The kitchen served us well!The small historic town of Monteleone d'Orvieto is absolutely lovely. We took almost daily walks down the long villa driveway and into town. Do not miss the painting by Perugino over the altar of the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. Also, you must stop by the Umbria Like a Local shop. Between Il Berneto and the historic town are two fantastic restaurants. Baciamano, is a family friendly café. Seven Café is delicious upscale dining. Both are open for lunch and dinner. At Baciamano you can also grab a morning cappuccino. As well, there is Caffe Latte, a gelateria and coffee shop, and a small grocery market.You will definitely need a car. But driving in this area of Italy was easy. Martina and her family were welcoming and treated us like friends. Do not miss out on Il Berneto!

Casa storica ideale per famiglie e gruppi

Il Berneto è un posto stupendo - comodo, pulito, ben posizionato con tutto quello che serve. Un sogno per i bambini che avranno a disposizione giochi di ogni tipo e una bellissima piscina con vista. Barbecue e forno a legna esemplari e in generale una casa calda, accogliente e divertente. Martina e Angelino entrambi gentilissimi e disponibili sempre. Il ristorante Seven a pochi passi dalla prorpietà merita una visita per il vino e per i tartufi. Torneremo!

Best Holiday Ever!

My family of 14 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Il Berneto and were so sad to leave! Martina, the homeowner, was very communicative from before our arrival, when checking in, & during our stay. She let us know about some festivities that happened to be taking place in town the week we were there & in which we were happy to participate. She also was very helpful in arranging for Natalia to cook some Umbrian meals a few days for us. Natalia was just wonderful & her cooking was delicious! We were greeted by Angelino upon our arrival, who gave us a tour of the property and showed us where everything was: pool, pizza oven, grill, toys, etc. He also returned each morning to clean the pool and makes sure the grounds were ready for our use. The house was well stocked, big enough to accommodate all of us comfortably, and there were plenty of rooms for all of us to feel like we had privacy but also have quiet time if we wanted. We hope to be able to return to Il Berneto again soon and ideally keep coming back! If you are lucky enough to stay here, you will be sure to have a magical a time as we did! Grazie Mille, Martina, Natalia, & Angelino!

Il Berneto is a Magical Place

Our family came from various parts of the US to Il Berneto to celebrate my husband's 80th birthday. We were 10 from a6 years to 80) adults and 8 children (from 4-13). It was very hot in Italy but the fabulous swimming pool at the farmhouse cooled everyone off - morning, noon and night. We all played in the pool for many hours each day and the little ones learned to swim and dive. We walked to CafeLatte for coffee, gelato and wine and to Conad for groceries. The Seven Cafe is a magnificent restaurant. We had many lunches and dinners there. We took day trips to all the hill towns and went to Citta Della Pieve for shopping and more gelato and more fabulous restaurants. Martina was a great communicator before and during our stay. She found a magnificent woman to cook a few meals for us which were beyond amazing. At night, we played volleyball, board and card games. It was so easy to interact with everyone in the house and outside. We had a truly magical time. A Dream Trip. An experience of a lifetime.

The Perfect Place!

We are 4 older couples that stayed this week at Il Berneto. It is an amazing place, very big & spacious but feels like a family home. It is in a beautiful setting with great views of the small town & valley. The pool is big & very well taken care of & it was a really nice touch that we could pick vegetables from the garden. The location is amazing- 2 hours from Rome & near many gorgeous Umbrian towns. The owner, Martina, was the best host possible. She greeted us with warmth & helped us immediately with any problem. We will definitely go back- it is the perfect Umbrian villa!

Absolutely Fabulous!!

My family and I stayed at Il Berneto for 12 days. There were 18 of us ranging in age from 12 - 77. We fit comfortably in the spacious house. The rooms were perfect and there were plenty of bathrooms. We loved our family dinners around the huge dining room table and our lazy days by the pool. The views from the property are magnificent. Martina and Angelino were completely accommodating and made us feel so welcome. It was wonderful to be able to walk to the end of the driveway to the cafe for cappuccino, cocktails or gelato. The kids loved being able to ride the bikes there on their own. We could also walk to the little market, a few other restaurants and the little village that was hosting the photo and arts festival. August is the perfect time to visit. The location was perfect for day trips to Perugia, Assisi, Siena, San Gimignano, Rasiglia, Firenzi, Spoletto and Orvieto. We took full advantage of both sightseeing and enjoying our Italian home playing ping pong, grilling outside and having family sing-a-longs around the piano. I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience. It was a trip of a lifetime.

Family fun in the Umbrian sun!

Superb setup for a family get-together with loads of shared living spaces and separate bedroom areas with well appointed bathrooms that give family units within the extended family room for themselves. Air conditioning in all bedrooms gave comfort in the warm nights and the delightful pool was a magnet for all of us during the day. The fenced pool is well designed, with a generous shallow area for our 4 years olds and deeper areas for the adults, including an enticing diving board and lots of inflatables for lots of fun for all. The location of this property is wonderful with gorgeous views across to the old town of Monteleone d'Orvieto and a friendly and popular bar with great coffee, pastries cakes and gelato at the entrance to the short driveway to the house. There is also a small but well stocked supermarket behind the bar. We used logs from the generous wood store to fire up the the large pizza oven and the barbecue to cook our own tasty pizzas and meats. All the necessary implements are provided. There are plenty of well maintained bikes suitable for all ages as well as childrens ride on toys, tables and chairs and so on. We played table tennis and set up the outdoor tables and forms to eat out-doors at night. We all had a truly wonderful family holiday in splendid Il Berneto. It has everything and could not have wished for anything more. We hope that we can come back again and we heartily recommend this property.

A bit of Heaven on this earth!

This is our second stay at il Berneto. This time we shared it with 13 members of our family who found it enchanting. We all lead very busy lives and our stay here was peaceful and rejuvenating. Its central location not far off the A1 allowed us day trips to Siena, Orvieto, Florence, and a farther trip to Venice where we overnighted. The community of Monteleone d'Orvieto is most welcoming and the convenience of Caffelatte (pastries, coffee and gelato) and the Conad grocery was another plus. As it was quite hot during our visit, we made good use of the pool. The garden with fresh vegetables and the producing fruit trees were an unexpected delight. I don't think we've ever eaten so many apricots! All and all a highly recommended experience! ,
