Villa Cerqualto arrangements for a green vacation in Umbria...
 

In Città della Pieve, half way between Rome and Florence (both easily reached in a little over an hour), one will find Villa Cerqualto, at the border of Umbria and Tuscany.

A luxurious and romantic private residence where up to 8 guests can stay. With the exception of high season, it is also possible to rent out a part of the villa.

Villa Cerqualto is completely restored using only natural and organic materials, beautifully decorated with antique furnishings of a German aristocratic family, and surrounded by great oak trees and a lovely garden.

The house is about 200 years old, warm and welcoming, positioned on a rolling hill from which a marvelous view can be seen, inviting you to tranquility and peace.

A low chemical pool surrounded by an olive grove is provided to our guests for a hot summers day, fully furnished with wooden lawn chairs and umbrellas.

 

A few steps from the kitchen terrace is the wooden pergola with a tiled roof and overgrown with Roses, Jasmine and Vines.

The large table seats up to 12 guests and is sheltered by to much sun or the occasional raindrop.

A stone built barbecue with integrated basin and fridge is alongside. A natural terrace/ridge gives shelter from cool wind in the evening or early and late season. A small kitchen garden provides you with herbs, tomatoes and salad for your dinners under the stars.

The farm which wraps around the villa extends 8 hectares (about 16 acres), where we produce organic wine and olive oil.

The House is situated on the hills near Tuscany, 311 slm, between Monteleone d´Orvieto and Città della Pieve, few kilometers from Cetona, San Casciano de Bagni (hot springs), Orvieto, the wildlife isles of Alviano and Montepulciano, near Chiusi, an Etruscan town.

By train (station is 10 min. far from the house) you can reach Rome and Florence within 1 and 1/2 h. A lovely cultural and panoramic road drives you to the seaside of Tuscany, Santo Stefano and Monte Agentario (it is about 90 km far from Villa Cerqualto).

You can easily reach the Bolsena Lake, a volcanic lake shortly after Orvieto, the most important Etruscan town in Italy.

Perugia, Assisi, Montefalco, Siena and Arezzo (Antic market) can be reached in about 40 min.

Trasimeno Lake is very near: you can rent a boat to visit the lake's islands enjoying delicious fish restaurants. Many events in summer like jazz Festival or the Palio in Cittá della Pieve are worth a visit.
