About this property

Luxury 12th Century Monastery,Stunning Location,Walk to Restaurant

Sant'Ansovino is a 12th century Benedictine monastery nestling in the breathtaking and tranquil hills of central Italy at the crossroads of Tuscany, Umbria and Le Marche. It has been lovingly restored into an elegant and comfortable holiday home using all original materials. Modern conveniences such as en-suite marble bathrooms, Wi-Fi broadband internet links, a large American-sized fridge, professional range cooker, and several sitting rooms ensure that everyone in your party has space to relax. Outside, our upper terrace has a large loggia with seating for 20. There is a large swimming pool for those hot days, and 12 acres of stunning hillside grounds to meander through if you feel like a walk. The tranquil setting makes it the ideal destination for family holidays, tracking and exploring. There is an excellent restaurant within walking distance, together with a wine bar and a bar/shop (open 7 days a week). San Ansovino lies about 4KM East of the beautiful medieval village of Apecchio which offers a wide range of services including a bank (with ATM), several supermarkets, bars, numerous excellent restaurants, a post office, chemist etc. The world famous UNESCO City of Urbino is just 40 minutes away, as are other beautiful hill towns such as Gubbio, Sansepolcro.

About the host

Hosted by Louise Gross

Host profile image
Marc is a Californian who grew up North of San Francisco and Louise is English. Meeting in London they discovered a shared fondness for great food which eventually led them to Italy. They have two children, Aurelia and William who have spent many wonderful holidays at San Ansovino and the whole family love this beautiful spot.

Why they chose this property

We discovered this wonderful place on a trip to Italy with our then 2 year old daughter and fell in love with it instantly. The bell tower, the way it sits in the hills, and the way the light falls in the afternoon all tugged at our hearts. It was only later during the 4 year renovation that we became priviliged to make many local friends. We hope you love this special place as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

An ancient monastery nestling in the hills, will fresh truffles and porcinis to eat - what could be better... and all washed down with a glass of kir di San Ansovino.
