The main body of the residence is joined to an 18th-century building that serves as the central nucleus of the house, furnished throughout with a curated collection of antique furniture and impressive chandeliers that grace the high ceilings and spacious living areas.

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.
Outdoors
The grounds of Dalmanuta are a true celebration of the Umbrian landscape, extending across 8,000 square metres of carefully maintained parkland, of which approximately 6,000 are planted with olive trees. The remaining area forms a luxuriant garden that follows the natural slope of the terrain, distributed across 2 distinct terraced levels connected by elegant brick stairways. 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. The upper terrace hosts the parking area and the spectacular infinity pool, while the house sits gracefully on the lower level. The non-heated infinity pool is rectangular in shape, measuring 6 x 12 metres, with a depth ranging from 1.30 metres to 2.30 metres. It features chlorine purification and PVC lining, with access to the water via Roman steps arranged in an original fan shape in one of the corners. The pool is equipped with internal lighting and is open all year round. Surrounding the pool is a generous 100-square-metre solarium area, paved in terracotta and furnished with sunbeds, deckchairs, and a large umbrella, as well as a hot outdoor shower. The garden also features 2 covered porches, one connected to the kitchen and one opening from both the dining room and the living room, where you can enjoy alfresco meals and take in the wild, rural scenery of the Umbrian countryside stretching as far as the eye can see. A wood oven under one of the porches adds a charming touch for outdoor dining experiences.

Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of Umbria, just outside the charming medieval town of Paciano, Italy, Campodalto is a remarkable vacation rental that seamlessly blends centuries of history with refined modern comfort. Once a 16th-century watchtower standing guard just beyond the city walls, this beautifully restored farmhouse occupies a privileged hilltop position within a lush private park, offering sweeping 180-degree views over the vineyards and olive groves of the Val di Chiana. The property sits within 2 hectares of working olive grove, and its 2,000-square-meter park provides guests with a serene and verdant retreat. A covered parking area with 2 dedicated spaces is conveniently located immediately before the entrance gate, on the same level as the house. Wireless internet connectivity is available throughout the property, ensuring you remain connected during your stay. The restoration of Campodalto has been carried out with great care and intention, preserving the original layout of the old farmhouse while introducing every modern amenity. Traditional and recycled materials of exceptional quality, including chestnut parquet flooring, hand-hewn wooden beams, and terracotta tiles, have been used throughout, while in certain rooms the plaster gives way to the original stone walls, bearing quiet witness to the passing of centuries. The interiors are further enriched by nineteenth-century antique walnut briar furniture, contemporary accents, and art deco touches, all harmoniously balanced to create an atmosphere of timeless elegance.

The outdoor spaces of Campodalto are as thoughtfully composed as the interiors, offering a variety of settings in which to relax, dine, and enjoy the extraordinary Umbrian landscape.

Scattered throughout are areas equipped for outdoor dining, sunbathing, and leisurely relaxation, including armchairs ideal for an aperitif and comfortable hammocks suspended in the shade of mature trees. A flourishing garden surrounds the property, showcasing an exceptional variety of plant life, from potted flowers and prized English roses to fragrant irises, apple, pear, and fig trees, olive trees, cypresses, oaks, plane trees, large rosemary and lavender bushes, numerous aromatic herbs, and a vegetable garden available for guests to enjoy. Adjacent to the house on the kitchen side, a pergola shelters a large table and chairs, perfect for al fresco meals. A few meters away, a well-appointed masonry structure houses a brick barbecue, a wood-burning oven, and a small refrigerator, creating an ideal outdoor kitchen and entertaining space.
The kidney bean-shaped swimming pool is set lower than the house and can be reached by walking across the gently sloping lawn or descending a few steps from the outdoor dining area. It measures 10.5 x 6.5 meters at its maximum diameter, with a varying depth of 1 to 2 meters, and is lined in PVC with salt-based purification. Access to the pool is via Roman steps. The surrounding 200-square-meter solarium area is paved in porcelain stoneware and furnished with sunbeds. An outdoor shower with both hot and cold water, equipped with an environmentally responsible drainage system, allows the use of soap without impact on the surrounding nature. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October.
