Gaze over the valley towards Assisi’s magnificent medieval fortress as you relax in your al-fresco lounge, surrounded by the tranquil sounds and sights of the ‘Green Heart of Italy’.

Frate Sole is a unique holiday home with exceptional owners who have created a contemporary haven of calm near the world-famous town of Assisi. Relax in the al-fresco lounge in the shade of the pergola with a glass of wine, perhaps from the vineyards of nearby Monte Subasio, as you admire the remarkable sunset.

The heated swimming pool is also positioned to make the most of the endless vistas of hills, woodland and the Rocca Maggiore, and there is ample space to dine al-fresco by the barbecue. Green lawns, swathes of summer lavender and scattered olive trees add to the peaceful vibe of the glorious grounds.

The interior open-plan design is outstanding with contemporary décor, artistic sculptures and state-of-the-art features such as air-conditioning throughout, an integrated speaker system and an iPad for you to select your chosen music, whether in the relaxing living area or by the swimming pool. Most rooms have doors leading to the lower gardens or courtyard, including the three inviting bedrooms, each with their own en suite bathroom. A fourth shower room includes a sauna for an added touch of luxury!

Fall in love with Assisi when exploring its historic sights and learning all about this UNESCO World Heritage site – the Basilica di San Francesco is just 3km away, and the heart of the town is just a little further. Even closer is the beautiful forest, the Bosco di San Francesco, with its walking trails and amazing nature. A traditional osteria serves delicious Umbrian fare at the edge of the woods, just 1km from the villa.
