Lounging in the wonderful garden spaces, taking up your time enjoying resting, reading and dining, is one of the greatest holiday pleasures - especially after a long day making the most of exploring wonderful Umbria!
Villa Giardiniera provides the perfect setting, with the garden specifically designed and planted to allow plenty of space to lie in the sun as it moves from east to west, or to recline in the shade on a day bed. The breathtaking view overlooks the Chiona valley, and thanks to the property's location traffic and noise are distant memories - the only thing before you is the Italian landscape at its very best.
- Larger parties travelling together may also book the equally gorgeous Villa Buona (sleeps 6), La Casetta (sleeps 2-3) and La Camerata (sleeps 2) are also virtually next door.
- The pool is quite compact (3m x 6m) as the property is found in the historic centre where pool sizes are limited accordingly.
