About this villa rental
This seventeenth-century stone farmhouse enjoys a spectacular setting in the heart of Umbria. It overlooks the Spoleto Valley with stunning views across to the city of Spoleto in the south and to Assisi in the north.
The house forms a separate part of our larger home, which remains unoccupied during your visit to guarantee your complete privacy.
The swimming pool is open from the end of May until the end of September and is not shared, for your private use only. Recently restored, the house and gardens have a marvellously quiet and restful atmosphere. Surrounded on three sides by 1 hectare and a half of olive trees, fruit trees and grape vines, it sits on the edge of a picturesque village set halfway up a hill crowned by a fifteenth-century ruined castle.
- An upper garden with a gazebo/pergola. A dining terrace. And lower gardens with terraces and a large swimming pool (12m-5m) with a spectacular view. The property faces West and enjoys beautiful sunsets.
- There are two double bedrooms that can accommodate up to four guests. The bedrooms can be configured as King-size doubles or twin beds depending on your requirements. A baby cot is also available.
- Two bathrooms, one with bath and shower, one with shower.
- A large living room with a mezzanine balcony.
- A fully fitted modern Kitchen-dining room which opens onto the terraces and garden.
- A Utility room - with washing machine.
- WiFi Fire
- Private gated parking.
All bed linen and towels for the bathrooms and the pool are provided. The pool is cleaned once a week.
The garden with its many olive trees, vines, fig fruit trees are regularly tended throughout the year.

House is rustic (dates from 1550!!) but nicely renovated with modern amenities. Very comfortable and plenty of space for two couples. Amazing views, lovely patio area and really nice pool. Julian is probably the best VRBO host we’ve ever had. Provided us with a lot of great info on the area - shopping, fuel, restaurants, etc. Also very responsive to every need we had. If you’re looking for a countryside location you can’t do better than this.

We (a family of four with two children of 10 and 12) had an excellent time at the guest house, which is located in a quiet area in Poreta. The guest house we stayed in is a part of a larger house of the host, but we had full private use of the garden and it’s large pool with stunning views (and sunset views!) on the mountains. The house itself was beautifully restored with attention to detail. The house is fully equipped and it was impeccably clean. The host is very approchable, flexible, and gave us several good tips of what to do in the surroundings of Poreta.

The house is beautifully & sensitively restored. The garden is lovely, with its terraces of olive trees going down to the pool, which is large, well maintained and has a lovely smooth stone surround. The views from here are just gorgeous - down to the pretty village of Poreta, across to the hills & for miles across the valley, with Spoleto in the distance. For us, the house was perfectly placed for trips out to nearby hill villages, towns & numerous great restaurants, many within 10 minutes drive. Julian, the owner, gives good recommendations! One of the great things, is the complete privacy of the place. No one overlooking you on any of the terraces - the top loggia (great for relaxing before & after dinner), dining area or pool. Blissful!Just to note, we would probably hire a smaller car as parking outside the property can be a little awkward, as can getting around the small roads in the villages. Also, if you have limited mobility the steps down to the pool would be challenging. An all round great place to stay.

We (family of four) had just come back from staying in this villa. It is a wonderful place, very comfortable with fantastic views and the pool was just right. The host are not present, when they have visitors but are in constant touch via WhatsApp, should you need any help. Julian and Sylvia made you feel very welcome.From the video on how to get to the villa to the views and the recommended restaurants, which we made the most of, had a great time and would stay again.
