Description
Property Summary
Nestled on a gentle hilltop in the verdant countryside of Umbria, La Martinella is a magnificent 17th century stately home offering an exceptional vacation rental experience near Passignano sul Trasimeno, Italy. This imposing residence takes its name from a noblewoman who received it as dowry upon her marriage to a prominent gentleman of the era, and its storied past is reflected in every detail of its architecture and interior. Majestic 19th century furnishings fill the spacious rooms, whose high ceilings are adorned with frescoes and friezes depicting the history of the Perugia families who once called this villa home. Original materials have been carefully salvaged, conserved, and reintegrated throughout the centuries, from the antique terracotta floors and stone-clad fireplaces to the hand-hewn wooden ceiling beams, creating an atmosphere of authentic grandeur that is rare to find. The property is set within a 13-hectare estate of woodland, vineyards, and olive trees, and the surrounding fenced garden of 1,000 square metres offers absolute tranquillity and natural beauty. Guests benefit from a private parking area conveniently located just in front of the main entrance, as well as Internet WiFi connectivity throughout the property, ensuring that modern comforts are seamlessly woven into this historic setting.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of La Martinella are as captivating as its interior, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the natural splendour of the Umbrian landscape. The fenced garden of 1,000 square metres that surrounds the house is a sanctuary of peace, where the canopy of tall lime trees and ancient oaks shelters small stone benches perfectly positioned for quiet contemplation of the rolling hills and lake views. Lavender bushes, rose gardens, lemon trees, and colourful seasonal flowers brighten every corner, while winding paths lead through the wider estate, offering opportunities to explore the woodland, vineyards, and olive groves in search of an intimate connection with nature. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, and therefore the flowering and the colours of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The non-heated swimming pool occupies a splendid panoramic position overlooking Lake Trasimeno and is situated at a lower level relative to the main house, remaining visible from several of the bedrooms. Rectangular in shape with a graceful semicircular end featuring Roman steps for entry, the pool measures 5 by 10 metres with a constant depth of 1.50 metres. It is lined in white PVC, equipped with internal lighting and a salt purification system, and can be covered during the night. The pool is available from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October. Surrounding the pool, a spacious solarium area, largely laid to grass, provides the ideal setting for sunbathing and relaxation, complete with sunbeds, deckchairs, a gazebo, and an umbrella. A portico with a wood stove, a large table and chairs, a hot and cold water shower, and a small stone building housing a kitchenette, bathroom, and changing room complete this exceptional outdoor leisure area. The panoramic terrace, illuminated by beautiful lanterns, and the large portico with wood stove adjacent to the main house offer further options for alfresco dining and summer gatherings in an unforgettable setting.

Property Summary
Nestled atop a sun-drenched hill in the heart of Tuscany, Monterzi is a beautifully restored farmhouse that offers an extraordinary vacation rental experience in one of Italy's most evocative landscapes. Located within easy reach of the charming medieval borgo of Trequanda and surrounded by the rolling vineyards and olive groves that define the Sienese countryside, this property was born from the careful and respectful renovation of an ancient ruin, once used as stables. The stone turret that formed the original structure has been thoughtfully expanded and refurbished in keeping with the authentic Tuscan architectural tradition, resulting in an interior that is both comfortable and full of character. The estate extends across approximately 2 hectares, offering guests a sense of privacy and immersion in nature that is truly rare. A private yard envelops the property, providing ample space to wander and unwind amid a rich variety of native trees and Mediterranean vegetation.

Directly in front of the property, the picturesque village of Montisi comes into view, while turning westward reveals the magical lunar landscape of the Crete Senesi.

The estate's grounds are laced with pleasant walking paths shaded by a rich variety of native shrubs and tall trees, including maples, holm oaks, chestnuts, old oaks, lindens, and fruit trees such as fig, cherry, pear, and peach. A panoramic portico, furnished with a table and chairs, provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining with sweeping views, while a brickwork barbecue located just a few steps away invites guests to enjoy leisurely outdoor meals in true Tuscan style. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, so the appearance of flowering plants and garden grass may vary depending on the season of your visit.

Where the blue of Lake Trasimeno gives way to the thousand shades of green of the rolling Umbrian hills you will find Pupa House. In a quiet residential area, set in a natural terrace shaded by ancient pines, with a breathtaking view of the lake that you can enjoy especially at sunrise and sunset but also throughout the rest of your days from the beautiful porch. This space is furnished with a sitting area, for an aperitif in front of the sunset, and with a table, chairs and barbecue for your outdoor family dinners or barbecues on cool summer evenings.
The villa is divided into two independent apartments, one of which is inhabited by the owner.
The characteristic village of San Feliciano is 1.5 km away and can be reached by a short walk. Here you will find small shops for basic necessities, but above all you will have the opportunity to have lunch or dinner along the lake, with Isola Polvese as a backdrop. In Magione, about 5 km away, you will find supermarkets and shops of all kinds, and in Corciano a large shopping centre.
Lake Trasimeno, with its small towns, water sports opportunities and equipped beaches, is waiting to be discovered. In a little more than an hour you can make the complete tour by car, or better still enjoy a boat trip to Isola Maggiore, with its small fishing village, an activity that is also perfect for your children.
The large swimming pool will be at your disposal (size 12x6 m, depth 0.60-2 - open from 01st June to 30 September); occasionally it is also used by the owner who will be, albeit very discreetly, an excellent point of reference in case of need. You will have your own private space for your car within the fully fenced property, where even your small four-legged friends will be welcome.
The house is comfortable, furnished with particular taste by the owner with local antiques, has a large living room with sofas and an antique fireplace, two comfortable double bedrooms and a smaller one perfect for a child.
Certainly, in addition to the proximity to important centres such as Perugia, Arezzo and Siena, which you can visit with convenient day trips, in our opinion the highlight of the villa is the view from the house and its outdoor space. Sunsets on the Lake from Pupa House will be one of the most beautiful memories you will carry with you for years to come. Pupa House

Property Summary
Nestled on a hill 350 metres above sea level in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Amandula is an exceptional vacation rental that seamlessly blends contemporary design with the rich heritage of the surrounding landscape. The name Amandula derives from the ancient local jargon "màndula", meaning almond, a reference to the precious fruit that once dominated this territory and formed a cornerstone of the traditional peasant diet. Built in 2019 according to zero-impact construction principles, the villa celebrates local craftsmanship through the use of handmade terracotta, chestnut beams, and oak parquet, all set within modern, linear, and entirely white interiors where deliberately oversized windows allow natural light to flood every room, transforming it into a living element of the décor. Located within a working farm dedicated to the production of extra virgin olive oil, Amandula enjoys a private and tranquil position overlooking a breathtaking rural landscape of olive groves, vineyards, and dense woodland, with the silhouette of Monte Amiata, an ancient extinct volcano, defining the horizon between the provinces of Grosseto and Siena. The property offers complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity throughout, a generous private yard extending across 3,000 square metres of landscaped garden, a stunning outdoor swimming pool, and a dedicated uncovered parking area with space for 3 cars, all contributing to an experience of refined comfort and absolute serenity in one of Italy's most evocative natural settings.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Amandula are as thoughtfully designed as the interiors, offering a seamless connection between the built environment and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. The property sits within a sloping 2-hectare park planted with olive trees, oaks, almond trees, and wooded areas, enclosed by large-mesh pasture netting intended primarily to ensure privacy and limit access by unauthorised individuals. The 3,000 square metres of garden immediately surrounding the villa are laid to lawn and dotted with olive trees, lavender, and rosemary, creating a fragrant and visually harmonious setting throughout the seasons. A pergola at the entrance provides a shaded and elegantly equipped outdoor dining area, while a brick barbecue with a convenient integrated sink offers the perfect setting for al fresco cooking. A panoramic, north-facing portico furnished with armchairs and a sofa invites relaxation at any hour of the day, framing views across the valley towards Monte Amiata. The uncovered parking area, accommodating up to 3 vehicles, is located at the end of a gravel driveway, just 5 metres from the main entrance door beneath the pergola. The rectangular swimming pool, non-heated and fenced for safety, occupies a lower terrace approximately 30 metres from the villa and is accessible from the porch and the parking area by crossing the garden and descending stone slabs. Measuring 12 x 5 metres with a constant depth of 1.40 metres, the pool is finished in sand-coloured PVC with a porous terracotta border and is equipped with an angular Roman staircase, underwater illumination, and a solar shower. The surrounding sunbathing area, paved in terracotta and framed by a border of lawn and olive trees, is furnished with sunbeds, umbrellas, and tables. The pool is sanitised with chlorine and remains open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October, offering an unobstructed view of the Amiata profiles and the suggestive sunsets that unfold across the horizon.
Unit Layout
Villa Amandula is distributed across 2 levels connected by an internal staircase crafted in terracotta and masonry, and comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. On the ground floor, the entrance opens from the pergola into a large and luminous open-plan living space that brings together the living area, furnished with a smart TV and overlooking both the swimming pool and the Castello di Velona, the dining area, and a contemporary linear kitchen with direct access to the porch. The ground floor also features a double bedroom with a private exit to the garden and an adjacent bathroom with shower, both of which are fully certified to accommodate guests with disabilities. The first floor, reached via the internal staircase from the living room, houses 2 further double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom with shower and an exclusive panoramic private terrace. One of these terraces overlooks the swimming pool, the olive grove, and the Val d'Orcia, while the other offers views over the charming village of Seggiano. One of the first-floor bedrooms features a wooden mezzanine level used as a dedicated relaxation area, adding an additional dimension of comfort and character to the accommodation.
Amenities Included
Villa Amandula is equipped with a comprehensive range of amenities designed to ensure a comfortable and convenient stay. Air conditioning is available in all 3 bedrooms, providing a welcome respite during the warmer months of the Tuscan summer.

Guests can enjoy a wide selection of channels through the satellite TV, complementing the smart TV already present in the living area. Heating is available at the property, ensuring warmth and comfort during cooler periods.
