Rustic and cosy holiday apartments on a complex of three apartments, in the middle of an olive grove with a swimming pool and a great view




The property comprising the three apartments is on a 44-hectare, cultivated olive grove with 700 trees, to the south of Perugia. The last five kilometres to your destination are along a gravel road. The nearest neighbour is more than a kilometre away. Due to the location of the olive grove at about 500 metres above sea level, it affords a great view over the Tiber valley as far as Assisi and the high Apennine mountains.

The main house, where the owner lives with his wife, dog and cat, contains the holiday apartment no. 1007850, which has a separate entrance. The two apartments nos. 478536 and 478543 are both in a house about 60 metres away towards the valley. Each apartment has a well-equipped kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, and beds for two or four people. All the rooms have under-floor heating. A TV and a stereo system provide entertainment, along with free wireless Internet access, which is also available outdoors. A washing machine and a freezer are available to all guests free of charge in a shared cellar.

Outside each apartment has its own terrace. You can enjoy spending time in the garden with a grill area with deckchairs, hammocks and dining spaces. The centrepiece is without a doubt the shared swimming pool. A table tennis table is provided and there is a lawn for a range of outdoor activities. The site is only partially enclosed. A section of about three hectares is fenced, the remaining 41 hectares are open olive grove and forest. There are plenty of parking spaces available, with at least three per apartment.

The apartments are run ecologically. Solar modules, fireplace stoves and the gas heating ensure hot water supplies and also fire the under-floor heating. The fireplaces and fireplace stoves in all three apartments are fired with free firewood. The fireplaces have closable glass doors, making them into fireplace stoves. A cot or children’s bed and a supplementary bed of 90 x 190cm, especially suitable for a child, are available on request, free of charge. You can hire bicycles at no supplementary charge, but these should be booked in advance.

The nearest supermarket is about 7km away in Spina. It is 5km to Mercatello with a very small grocery shop. Many tranquil hiking and cycling trails start behind the house. Maps and route descriptions are available free of charge. Owing to the central location in Umbria, you can go on day trips to the towns of Perugia, Assisi, Bevagna, Montefalco, Gubbio, Spoleto, Orvieto and Todi. Lago Trasimeno, a lake, is about a 40-minute drive away. You can go on day trips to Rome and Florence. You can go to the Chiusi train station by car and then take the train directly to the relevant town centre. The climate and weather are pleasant throughout the year. The winter is not very cold and frost and snow are rare. There is often a strong wind, but rain rarely lasts log. The spring begins at the beginning of March, immersing the landscape in a lush green. In May the gorse starts blossoming and the hills turn yellow. July and August are the hottest months, so hiking and cycling are only recommended in the early mornings or in the evenings. The autumn with its mild temperatures is very pleasant, before the olive harvest starts in November.

Wonderfully cosy studio on the ground floor

This holiday studio is recommended for two people. Its stone walls ensure that it remains pleasantly cool in summer. The warm terracotta flooring and the rustic old wooden beams on the ceiling exude cosiness. It has a double bed (140 x 200cm) and a sofa, consisting of four handmade mattresses, which can be used as a single bed (100 x 190cm).
