Villa Condotti
Overview
Villa Condotti is an immaculate, modern restoration of an Umbrian stone farmhouse, with a rustic brick patio and swimming pool. Surrounded by thoughtfully maintained, landscaped gardens boasting a subtle plethora of herbs and flowers that send exotic aromas ruminating through the oak and walnut trees, and around the property.
This hilltop paradise retains all the charming characteristics of a traditional Italian villa, including terracotta floors, wood beamed high ceilings and thick stone walls. Nevertheless, the modern décor is delicately stylish, and really compliments the expansive rooms.
Guests will enjoy magical, warm evenings out on the Loggia, enjoying fine feasts prepared in the vast and well equipped kitchen, before watching the sunset over the rural, wooded valley from your own private pool. Alternatively, the library offers an array of reading material where you can curl up with a good book, or sink into one of the amazing sofas in one of the reception rooms in front of the fire.
Thinking of heading out to explore the unspoilt Umbrian countryside? The English speaking house managers will delight in helping you organise a personalised trip out in the local area that is just what you’re looking for. If you’d rather keep it simple, the hilltop town of Montone is within walking distance, so you can take your morning coffee in the town square after a refreshing stroll through the surrounding countryside.
What Oliver loves…
- The highest level of luxury comfort, with an abundance of space both inside and out, and a ground floor bedroom and bathroom for those who have difficulty with stairs.
- The villa just outside the astoundingly picturesque old town of Montone, perched up on a hill top with many charming restaurants and cafes to choose from.
- The vast, modern kitchen is fantastic for cookery courses, and entertaining large dinner parties.
What you should know…
- There isn't much of a local nightlife in the surrounding area, as it is mostly made up of small, sleepy historic towns.
- You'll have to pay extra for energy during the winter months.

What was it about the property that you first fell in love with?
I fell in love with Villa Condotti the moment I saw it. What struck me was its sense of peace. At the time it was a ruin and the next couple of years were spent lovingly restoring it. Some interesting and challenging times but I would never wish away those many visits to keep an eye on things, staying in Montone and getting to know the town and people. My plan is one day to retire to the house and hence the house has very much been set up as a home while ensuring its not cluttered with personal items. I spend as much time as I can at the house but sadly not nearly as much time as I would like!
For anyone coming to stay is there anything in the surrounding area they should...
Really do? Truffle hunting
Really eat? Porcini mushroom, truffle, wild boar, pasta
Really see? Gubbio, Montone Festa Del Bosco
Lastly, what insider tip would you pass on about the property or the area?
The kitchen is really the heart of the house and you should definitely try a cookery course or have our chefs come and cook for you while you eat under the stars in the Loggia.

I can’t recommend it highly enough!
Beautiful villa, in excellent condition and with all minor details covered. Great pool and facilities but, beyond that, the small touches and attention to detail mark this out as a stunning base from which to explore Umbria and Tuscany. Can’t recommend it highly enough, and would love to return. Everything is beautifully maintained and the furnishings are extremely high-end. Both Christine and Anne obviously go to great lengths to ensure guests have a wonderful time – this should be one of your most highly rated properties in my view.
