Style Notes

Rustic and relaxing. This restored Umbrian villa is pretty with a traditional Tuscan interior of cool terracotta floors and wooden ceiling beams. Green-painted windows open to a view of the soft blues and greens of the stunning local countryside. Décor is elegant with understated colors and an oak gourmet kitchen. The lovely kingsize master bedroom is a detached suite with a private entrance. The host is passionate about the area and is author of the local travel blog tuscanyumbriablog.com. We love the big pool that has a view of the lake and distant hills, the pretty painted wardrobe in the bedroom and authentic ambiance.
