Set in the pretty hillside town of Spello, this home provides all the convenience of being near shops and restaurants, while still maintaining the wild beauty of rural views. Each bedroom has its own thoughtfully curated theme – with an emphasis on craftsmanship and colour. The stone walls, wooden shutters and citrus tree in the garden create an idyllic romantic setting, perfect for a memorable holiday. After a dip in the pool, dry off on sunloungers and soak in the Italian countryside. The alfresco dining area is perfect for starlit, candle-strewn evening meals. If adventure is your thing, then the 'Green Heart of Italy' is the perfect location of losing yourself in the rural wilds of the open country, and can be achieved right on your doorstep, while the ancient city of Perugia is just a twenty-five-minute drive away and offers a wealth of sightseeing opportunities, delicious restaurants, bars, and more. Delve deep into the rich culture and history of this region and you will not be left disappointed. To get a true taste of Perugia, dine alfresco and sample local cheese, cured meats and wine. Tagliatelle al Tartufo (Pasta with black truffles) is a particular favourite of ours.
