About this property

Charming House with Stunning View

Beautiful villa surrounded by a large garden park with total privacy, from where you can enjoy a breathtaking view overlooking the stunning medieval town of Spoleto. The house is spread over one floor. The luxurious comfort from furniture style and the elegant furnishings make the stay above all expectations. The house has disabled access. This house does not allow pets. Smoking is not permitted inside.
The city is a centre of cultural delights, in particular it hosts the Festival dei Due Mondi each summer. Regional Umbrian food is delicious and every restaurant prides itself on serving simple, fresh, typical dishes. Truffles, asparagus, peccorino cheese, local salamis and many varieties of pasta, not to mention the local wines, all are worth sampling. More than once!
Spoleto: Spoleto has been inhabited since early Roman time but today it appears essentially a mediaeval city. It flourished also as one of the Papal States and the Pope often resided in the Rocca Albornoziana at the summit of the city. Worth seeing as you walk around are The Arch of Drusus (23 A.D.) to be found near the Romanic church of St. Ansano , the Roman theatre, whose construction goes back to the first years of the Empire, and the Paleo Christian basilica St. Salvatore of the 4th century (at about 1.2 km distance to the north).
In the lower part of the city hunt out the church St.Gregorio Maggiore,(12th century), characterized by its evocative apsis zone and by the elevated presbytery, a Roman bridge (also called 'the Bloody') consisting of three arches in travertine stone blocks and the amphitheatre of the 2nd century A.D.
The Duomo has stunning frescoes by Lippi and there are many delightful piazzas and winding streets to discover.

Monteluco: The sacred mountain of Monteluco has been considered a holy place since Roman times and then the Benedictines established a monastery near the summit and this provided hospitality for Franciscans and other pilgrims. Syrian monks also came here for meditation and prayer.
It is covered entirely with oaks and is now linked to Spoleto by a 13th century aqueduct. There are many walking trails to explore and the views are stunning.
At the base of the mountain is San Pietro's church built in the early 5th century and this can be seen from the apartment.

Umbria: Umbria is not as well known as neighbouring Tuscany and is consequently not full of foreign tourists. However, the discovery process is beginning and news of the delights are spreading. Towns like, Perugia, Assisi, Spello, Bevagna, Montefalco, Todi, Orvieto and Norcia are all worth visiting. Wine tasting at wineries in the area around Montefalco, walking in the many olive grove mountain paths, discovering the delicious regional menus and the slow pace of life are all highly recommended.

Apartment mit tollem Blick auf Spoleto
Wir haben sehr ruhige und entspannte zweieinhalb Wochen in diesem Apartment verbracht. Im Grunde entspricht die Wohnung mit Garten und Terrasse genau den Bildern und ist gut gepflegt. Allerdings waren in beiden Bädern die Toilettensitze kaputt. Was uns gestört hat, ist die Tatsache, dass die Beschreibung im Internet eindeutig den Eindruck erweckt, dass man ein ganzes Haus für sich allein mietet und dort ohne andere Menschen lebt. Es ist die Rede davon, dass sich das Haus über eine Etage erstreckt. In Wirklichkeit sind es drei Stockwerke. Dies ist auf keinem Bild zu sehen. Entgegen unseren Erwartungen wohnt man hier mit einer Familie und einem Hund. Die Eigentümer sind sehr nette Leute und grundsätzlich sehr zurückhaltend.

Vivere Spoleto soggiornando in collina
Veduta panoramica impareggiabile. Gradevole l’ospitalità. Servizi alla residenza entro 5 min. Di macchina. Parcheggi e tapis roulant per tutti i punti d’interesse monumentale e paesaggistico entro 5 minuti di auto. Abitazione completa di ogni servizio e sicurezza. Il tutto consente una vacanza tranquilla godendo egualmente la città storica.

A Wonderful Experience: Highly Recommended
We stayed here for two weeks in late May and couldn’t have been happier with the location, the house and the people we were in contact with during our stay. Located on the southern edge of Spoleto and just far enough away to enjoy a tremendous view of the town, the house is but a five-minute drive away from a couple of the public parking lots with their escalator service into the old upper town. If you’re inclined, walking into town would take about fifteen minutes. And important for us - the location of the house provides easy access to the highway system which made touring around the region fairly straightforward. Communications and coordination with Marina the property manager were outstanding from original inquiries to our checkout. She stayed in regular touch, answered our questions, sorted out a couple minor issues and, generally, took good care of us. Of the dozens of apartments and houses throughout Europe we’ve rented over the past fifteen years this was among the best experiences with a manager that we’ve had. And while the listing photos of the house are accurate they don’t convey the absolute cleanliness of the place as well as the peaceful rural-feeling environment enhanced by the well-kept grounds and surrounding orchard. A few specifics: the kitchen has everything you’ll need (and then some), there’s great water pressure, a very nice washing machine, comfortable living room with Sat TV (no English language stations however), good Wi-Fi, a wonderful covered terrace with lawn and the million-dollar view to Spoleto and across the valley towards Montelucco. The king bed in the master is very firm and there are two complete bathrooms with the master featuring a nice soaking tub and the other a true full-sized shower. And, finally, as we were interested in learning some Umbrian cooking techniques, Marina arranged a private class, in our home, that included a five-course meal that evening. An incredible experience and, like this house, highly recommended. No doubts where we’ll stay on our next visit to Umbria.
