Overview
Situated in a beautiful spot in the heart of the old hilltop town of Spello, Villa Giardiniera is only five minutes walk to the main square of Piazza della Repubblica, where you'll find a huge range of shops, bars and fantastic restaurants.
There's an abundance of outdoor activities to enjoy in the area (including fishing, hiking and trekking) all found conveniently near to the beautiful hill towns of Umbria. Explore fantastic towns and landscapes around Spoleto, Perugia, Montefalco, Gubbio, Città di Castello, Orvieto and Todi, as well as Assisi, the jewel in Umbria's crown, which is a mere 5km away from Spello!
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.
***For larger parties it is possible rent sister properties Villa Buona (sleeps 6) or La Casetta (sleeps 2-3) virtually next door - please follow links for more information.

Region
Umbria has best of Italy to offer: rolling landscapes, wine, beautiful towns and villages, olive oil, expansive lakes and the food, glorious food. A holiday here can be as lazy, active, cultured and as delicious as you like.
This region is scattered with pretty, picturesque villages, while the area has a rich cultural heritage. From thermal pools to medieval cathedrals and olive oil museum, Umbria has an intriguing amount of history to discover.
Both Rome and Florence are accessible within a day trip, while the closest towns of interest would be Orvieto, the old town which is a fascinating series of winding streets, piazzas and a colourful weekly market.
History lovers will be spoilt - from the first century Roman amphitheatres to the twelfth-century duomos, to the fourteenth-century hilltop fortresses, the glut of remnants from the medieval and Bronze Age that punctuate the region is impressive.
