PRIVATE VILLA RENTAL IN UMBRIA - VILLA L'AIRONE - SLEEPS 7 + 2

The property is located in northern Umbria, quite close to the border with Tuscany, and lies 10 kilometres from Gubbio and 30 from Perugia.

The house is on two levels (it was fully restored in the 1980's) and sits amidst 100 hectares of fenced land where the owners raise deer (circa 40). This land forms part of the family estate of 300 hectares.

Within the grounds there are 3 small ponds,one with fish, plenty of forests with easy pathways, and two more building each roughly 1000 metres apart. One, half restored, is an 11th century monastery, another is occasionally occupied by the owners.

The estate overlooks the Chiascio river valley and is set amongst gentle rolling hills; these are the valleys that St. Francis is said to have traveled whilst trying to tame and befriend the Wolf of Gubbio.

The house that is now available for rent has two double bedrooms (the master one with seating area and fireplace), one twin bedroom, and one single bedroom. There are two bathrooms, one with Jacuzzi, a very large living area with open air well equipped kitchen, fireplace, pizza oven, maxi-screen satellite TV and Hi-Fi. There is also a library room that can, upon request, be converted into and additional twin bedroom.

The house has an indoor pool (heated on request) measuring 9 x 5 metres and 1.70 metres deep. The pool has roof to floor windows on two sides, four large ceiling windows, and ample opening on to the garden. In the pool room you'll also find a gym machine.

The house is furnished with a mix of antiques and designer items, and the total size of the house is 300 square metres plus 100 of pool room. The garden is equipped with two shaded outdoor eating areas, plenty of deck chairs and a barbecue.
