Borgo Di Meana is a tranquil getaway within the Umbrian countryside, with stunning 360° views of the green rolling hills. As it can sleep up to 38 guests within 16 bedrooms, this villa is perfect for families or groups of friends travelling together. It is made up of a beautiful main house with stone exteriors, three farmhouse-style guesthouses, and one cottage, all within spacious outdoor grounds.
The villa is also well suited to hosting artistic, sports and holistic-style retreats, as there is a wellness centre on site and lots of outdoor space. Outside, there is a shimmering aquamarine pool with sun loungers dotted around it, as well as a heated indoor pool with hydromassage and a Turkish bath.
The villa, guest houses and cottage have been recently restored and tastefully decorated to create a cosy atmosphere. Inside the charming living room there are plush sofas to curl up on by the traditional fireplace. There is a games room with a bar and an amazing dining area with an enormous wooden table and large windows that open out to the garden.
This space is crafted from natural materials - it is designed to harmonise with the environment, with sustainability in mind. For those who love to cook, there is a fully-equipped professional kitchen. The bedrooms are designed in a calming style with watercolour feature walls, a mixture of double and twin beds, with extra sofa beds for guests.
The setting is nestled within Monte Peglia park and Selva di Meana, which was recently classified as a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve. Wrapped in greenery, the villa is located at the end of an avenue lined with cypress trees, leading to what the owners describe as the 'courtyard' of the Umbrian hills. Within the garden, there are olive groves where guests can enjoy a peaceful walk.
There are lots of activities on-site including cooking classes with where you can make your own pasta, pizza and hearty soups. Indulge in a massage within the soothing spa from professional on-site therapists and soak up the invigorating perfumed steam and chromotherapy. Personal treatment plans can be created to help you make the most of your spa experience.
The villa can organise trips to explore Umbria and suggest areas to go walking or mountain biking. Nearby, guests can go horse riding, take a thrilling ride in a 4x4 or go river rafting. Umbria's lush landscape is the perfect backdrop to the outdoor activities.
