Description
Property Summary
Nestled on a gentle hill in Pieve Caina, a hamlet within the Municipality of Marsciano, in the heart of Umbria, Italy, La Vecchia Pieve is an extraordinary vacation rental that seamlessly blends centuries-old architectural heritage with refined contemporary living. This three-storey stone and brick farmhouse, dating to the late 19th century, is distinguished by its imposing walls and characteristic small windows, originally conceived to retain warmth in winter and maintain cool interiors during summer. A meticulous renovation has honoured the original structure, preserving round vaults, terracotta floors, and exposed chestnut beams, while the owners' discerning modern sensibility has introduced warm, welcoming spaces with a minimal aesthetic. Resin flooring animates the convivial kitchen, parquet and bleached ceiling beams lend elegance to the spacious bedrooms, and stoneware finishes define the bathrooms. The property offers complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity throughout, ensuring guests remain connected during their stay. A private yard of 4,000 square metres of partially fenced parkland, rich with oaks, cypresses, olive trees, and lavender, provides a serene natural setting. The infinity swimming pool crowns the outdoor experience, while a dedicated parking area with 2 covered and 2 uncovered spaces ensures effortless arrivals and departures. La Vecchia Pieve is an ideal retreat for those seeking privacy, relaxation, and tranquillity in one of Italy's most culturally and naturally rich regions.
Outdoors
The expansive grounds of La Vecchia Pieve extend across 4,000 square metres of partially fenced parkland, set within a stretch of hilly Umbrian countryside. The vegetation is authentically local, featuring oaks, cypresses, olive trees, lavender, box trees, and a mixed grass lawn of approximately 1,500 square metres. The surrounding landscape shifts with the seasons, with arable land and vineyards painting the hills in shades of yellow and ochre during summer, while woodland flora including wild asparagus, dog rose, butcher's broom, hawthorn, juniper, holly, bay, strawberry trees, and blackthorn complete the natural tapestry. Stone and travertine steps connect the various levels of the property, making it easy to stroll through the grounds. Past the automatic entrance gate, a short dirt and gravel drive leads to the parking area. A well-kept green lawn surrounds the section of the garden between the parking area and the ground floor of the house, extending toward the pool area. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden's grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The non-heated infinity swimming pool is positioned slightly above the first floor of the house, approximately 15 metres away, and is reached via a path of large and small travertine steps.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Umbrian countryside of San Venanzo, Italy, Villa Dalmanuta is a beautifully restored farmhouse that offers an exceptional vacation rental experience for those seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and refined comfort. The property takes its name from the ancient biblical city of Dalmanutha, mentioned in the Gospel of Mark as the place where Jesus and his disciples rested after feeding the four thousand. Inspired by this story of renewal, the owners envisioned Dalmanuta as a sanctuary where the relentless pace of everyday life fades away, replaced by silence, nature, and a deep sense of harmony. Originally an old farmhouse, the villa has been thoughtfully renovated and expanded, preserving its authentic character through the use of local natural materials such as terracotta floors, travertine bathroom walls, and solid wooden ceiling beams. The interiors are decorated with an elegant yet understated aesthetic, where carefully chosen furnishings and a refined colour palette create an intimate and welcoming atmosphere without overwhelming the space. The property is set within a magnificent park of 8,000 square metres, where an impressive infinity pool invites long, relaxing moments with sweeping views over the surrounding landscape. A lush yard surrounds the villa, thoughtfully landscaped across two terraced levels and filled with olive trees, maples, oaks, cypresses, and flowering herbs. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, and a convenient open-air parking area is located just inside the automatic iron gate, with the option to drive directly up to the house along a paved ramp.

Stone walls and hedges define the various zones, which are enlivened by maples, oaks, cypresses, roses, broom, and flowering herbs, all beautifully illuminated at night. Please be aware that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, meaning that the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you will find upon your arrival at the villa.

Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Val di Chiana between Siena and Arezzo, Albachiara is an exceptional vacation rental that places you just minutes from the enchanting hilltop town of Cortona, one of the oldest Etruscan settlements in Tuscany, rising 600 metres above sea level in the heart of Italy. This beautifully restored stone farmhouse, originally a farm shed belonging to the adjacent Leopoldine villa, has been completely renovated with meticulous attention to conservation and the careful salvage of all original materials. The result is a refined and welcoming country house where natural tones echo the colours of the surrounding earth, and simply yet elegantly furnished rooms create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The property sits on approximately 1 hectare of fully fenced grounds, offering guests complete privacy amid fields of sunflowers and sweeping views over Cortona. A lush, well-tended garden frames the outdoor living areas, while a non-heated swimming pool provides a refreshing centrepiece to the estate during the warmer months. Wireless internet connection is available throughout the property, and a dedicated parking area ensures convenient arrival and departure. The expansive yard, rich with flowering plants, fruit trees, and fragrant herbs, completes an outdoor environment of rare natural beauty and tranquillity.
Outdoors
The grounds of Albachiara are a celebration of the Tuscan countryside at its most generous and picturesque. The entire property is enclosed within a double border of leylandii hedging along the full perimeter, and from the entrance gate, a driveway lined with cypress trees and bushes of lavender and rosemary leads gracefully to the parking area and into the heart of the park. A large grassy expanse houses a rich and varied orchard featuring plums, cherries, peaches, and grapevines, while holm oaks, lime and lemon trees alternate with aromatic herb bushes and climbing roses throughout the garden. On one side of the house, embellished with camellias, rhododendrons, and hydrangeas, a wooden gazebo has been set up as a comfortable sitting area with a table and chairs. Close by, directly in front of the dining room French window, a wood oven and mobile barbecue invite al fresco cooking and leisurely outdoor dining. At the centre of the garden, framed by 2 majestic weeping willows edged with white roses, a large wooden portico structure draped in porcelain vine and furnished with a table and benches provides the ideal shaded outdoor living area. A wooden structure beneath the portico, accessible from the outside, houses the laundry room. The non-heated swimming pool, reserved exclusively for the use of guests, is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October. Located in a central area of the park approximately 40 metres from the house and reached by 4 stone steps, the rectangular pool features a stone border, PVC lining, and Roman steps for water access. It measures 5 x 10 metres with a depth ranging from 0.70 to 1.90 metres, and is equipped with a chlorine purification system and an outdoor cold-water shower. The surrounding lawn includes a generously sized sunbathing area furnished with sunbeds and deckchairs, bordered by plants and abundant blooms and connected via a wooden walkway to a further lawn area ideal for children's play. A large umbrella and an iron gazebo covered with climbing roses, arranged as a small lounge with 4 armchairs and a coffee table, complete the pool area. Lighting is provided both inside the pool and throughout the surrounding grounds. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the flowering and the colours of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
