20 minutes drive/7 kms from Spoleto historic centre, on a good road that winds its way up through the most heavenly scenery, leaving the tiny fairy-tale city sprawled below, fringed by mountains and a scattering of olive groves, you arrive at your destination – 2 villas next door to each other, each surrounded by its own private land – mountains all around, valleys below, nightingales singing. This is Heaven!
The large fresh water pool with WC is for your exclusive use. It is 16 X 8 metres with steps.
Please note that both country houses are next door to each other on the same private mountain with the same sensationally beautiful scenery all around - above Bazzano Superiore, 7 kms to central Spoleto. So, when you stay in either of these impressive properties, you feel that the mountain and the vast panoramic landscape all around belongs to you ! Indeed, the owner of these magnificent properties ialso owns the mountain. So while you are in residence, the land around you is private to you and the other guests ! Further, there are many rambling trails all over the immediate area, where every so often you will come across a hammock and/or swings. Great territory for kids to explore and all safe.
A particular point of interest is our small farmyard in an adjoining field where we keep peacocks, hens, goats and horses. Not to mention the sheep, cows and muscular mules bearing logs in the surrounding fields and lanes. Fruit orchards, olive groves and sunflower fields abound. Wild flowers are cultivated to maintain the bee population. Here, you are in a totally natural environment. And the owner will often leave a few fresh veg on your door step!
The interiors of both villas, while minimalist, are high quality spec. Furnished in mind with the modesty of St Francis who stayed in La Romantica way back when it was a hermitage, it being at the top point of his travels between Assisi and Rieti. And, it is well equipped for a comfortable stay. The kitchens are fitted alongside one wall of the sitting/dining rooms and are fully equipped with dish washers, microwaves, toasters, ovens, fridges etc.
