Scappo in Umbria, villa Claudia

Beds, pool, outdoor space

The property is right beside a busy 4 lane road, it's not possible/safe to walk anywhere. The owners left a lot of their own stuff in the house, including clothes in drawers, children's school books etc, there was no place for our clothes, apart from a hanging rack, put in as an after though. It still very much felt like someone else's house

The photos don’t do it justice, the place really is amazing. Sitting down with some friends and a few glasses of wine to watch the fireflies in the garden was truly something special. Good location to explore umbria.

Perhaps the property is a little close to a main road (behind it), so you can hear the cars - albeit, not from inside the house at all (well insulated), just when you’re in the garden.

Beautiful house with a lovely swimming pool, very comfortable. We were made very welcome by our friendly hosts, Rita and Guido, who came to find us when we couldn’t find the house, and guided us there. The main bedroom is gorgeous, opening out onto a loggia overlooking the garden (which is lovely, and very well kept) and pool. We really enjoyed our breakfasts and evenings outside in the loggia downstairs off the kitchen, and were usually joined by our hosts’ gorgeous, friendly, ginger and white cat, Frodo. We loved him! The area is great too, not far from Perugia and very close to Assisi, Spello and Foligno, all beautiful. Umbria is wonderful - our first visit there after many holidays in Tuscany, and we love it at least equally! Definitely highly recommended.

Nothing, once we found it!
