Imposing pieces of 19th century furniture decorate the spacious rooms, with high ceilings adorned with frescoes and friezes depicting the history of the Perugia families who owned the house. Each room still contains the original materials, salvaged, conserved and re-used over the years, such as the old terracotta floors, the stone cladding of the fireplaces and the wooden ceiling beams. Part of the ground floor consists of the caretakers’ apartment with private entrance; the caretakers are very discreet and will not interfere in the guests’ privacy. Not far from Passignano sul Trasimeno, a charming village reflected in the waters of the lake, the villa stands on a little hilltop in the green countryside overlooking Lake Trasimeno and the surrounding hills, facing an area that will satisfy your every interest and passion, whether they be for the history, culture, folklore and traditions of these places, and will give you unforgettable days. The convenient location, close to major road links and train stations, will allow you to wander at your leisure among the countless beauties of Umbria and Tuscany - large towns like Perugia and Siena, famous medieval villages like Cortona and Castiglione del Lago and excellent food and wine .
