Country house in Umbria with private pool for family holiday or romantic stay
Casa Collina is a charming stone house built from rustic materials in the traditional Italian style with beams made from chestnut wood and terraccota tiles on the floor. The house has a breathtaking position at the top of a ridge with a full view of the valleys below. The house consists of a big kitchen/dining area and a small cosy living room with an open fireplace. There are two bedrooms with double beds and two bathrooms. Furthermore, it is possible for two people to sleep in a sofa-bed situated in the living room. On the first floor there is a large balcony. Outside there is a large covered terrace and a swimming pool, which is open in the summer season. Casa Collina is fully insulated and has a central heating system, which means that it also is suitable for stays outside the summer season. The house is placed in quiet surroundings near the little village San Terenziano, but not in any way isolated. The perfect place for a family holiday or a romantic get-away.
Very nice House in skandinavian style with fully equiped kitchen. Stunning views in tranquil setting. Very nice pool. Regarding the access road, which has been mentioned in other reviews. Only the last stretch of about 150m is a gravel road. Just slow down and everything will be fine.
The house was exactly as shown in the photos, very well furnished and everything you could want in kitchen, dining. Beautiful views over the countryside and very quiet. A great place to unwind.
Great views, extremely well equipped villa with spare glasses, crockery, cutlery, etc. with comfortable seating and beds. The minor queries were quickly and efficiently dealt with and did not spoil our stay. One of the best rentals that we have stayed in.
A very comfortable home and well placed to explore beautiful Umbria. We absolutely loved our stay. Itâs not really possible to walk to a nearby village or walk in the countryside but we were content just to relax at home, enjoying the pool and views. We enjoyed driving to the picturesque towns in the area. We would definitely recommend this lovely cottage!
My wife and I just completed a wonderfully weeklong holiday in the Umbrian countryside near Todi. Couldn't have asked for a better home base to work from. The country house was exactly as described and had everything you needed to enjoy the Umbrian lifestyle to the fullest extent possible. Close to all the great towns to visit but out in the countryside so that you can enjoy the peace and quiet. Can't wait until we return!!
Divine, secluded stay! a true Umbria gem.
The house is perfectly located for day trips.
It is a great getaway place and a leisure 'come home to'.
Meticulously thought through, very tastefully furnished, well equipped and offering a great indoor /outdoor experience. WE'LL BE BACK
This recently renovated house had amazing views of the Umbrian hills, olive groves, and nearby agricultural fields. Inside, the kitchen had new, modern appliances and kitchen with anything needed to cook. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable, the linens and towels more than adequate, and the bathrooms spacious and very functional. We chose the house based in part on its location; Cortona, Perugia, Assisi, Spoleto, Orvieto, Todi and other destinations were all less than an hour away via beautiful countryside. The pool area was beautiful, but it was too cold for us to use it. Check in was easy, and the property manager lived close by and was very responsive. Highly recommended; we would happily stay there again.
We had planned to stay with our friends, but they needed to cancel their trip. Because this place was not too expensive, we kept the reservation for part of the week. It was remote, yes, but so worth it! Recently renovated kitchen gave us an opportunity to try cooking on an induction stove--amazing! Plenty of staples in the kitchen. About 5 minutes from the nearest hamlet and within 15 minutes of wineries. Very comfortable home with a spectacular view. The host and house manager were responsive and helpful. It is a country home, so expect some bugs on the patio who try to get in. We would definitely stay here again!
The house is nicely furnished. It is located in the countryside, near San Terenziano. We especially appreciated the quiet surroundings. The basic cleaning of the house was good, but it does not deserve a 5* rating, there are a number of details which need more attention. The mosquitos were rather bothersome, in- and outside the house. Mosquito plugs would have been helpful. You also have to bring your own shampoo and body wash with you.
We had high expectations for this home based on the photos and description, and the property far exceeded all our expectations. The home is well- designed and tastefully decorated, with a very functional kitchen and comfortable beds. The views are gorgeous, and there are different outdoor spaces from which to enjoy them - a dining table and outdoor living room on the terrace, loungers on the large terrace off the upstairs bedroom, and loungers by the outdoor pool. The property is very quiet and peaceful, great for relaxing, but also a perfect base for exploring towns nearby. Sylvia the house manager is warm and funny, and gave us good advice about where to visit and eat in the area. Our stay at this home in Umbria was our favourite part of our trip. We didnât want to leave, and sincerely hope to return!
Das Haus ist sehr geschmackvoll und komfortabel ausgestattet.Die Betreuung durch die freundliche Nachbarin Sylvia war perfekt,nicht nur was das Haus anbelangt,sondern auch die vielen guten Ausflugstips von ihrer Seite.
We stayed for 3 weeks in this lovely villa, well situated for touring the regions towns and vineyards. The villa is well furnished and supplied, perfect for adults, teenagers may struggle with the isolation. Beautifully fitted out in a scandi style with multiple outdoor areas. Essential mozzie screens on all windows and ceiling fans. Kitchen is great with all the supplies you need, most essentials for cooking are already there, so replace if you use. The villa needs a car and the roads are in a terrible state, the last 100 meter access is a shale/grit road, but this leads to splendid isolation and your own valley to look out at. The village is great with some restaurants, market on a Tuesday and a small store, butcher, bakery and pharmacy, you can happily supply yourself from the village. the caretaker was great and managed any request.
Wunderschönes Ferienhaus in idyllischer, einsamer Lage, in dem es an nichts fehlt. Traumhafte Aussicht von der Terrasse mit Lavendelduft, phantastischer Pool. Perfekt geeignet, um dem Alltag zu entfliehen. Vollkommen unkomplizierte Organisation. Hervorragende Trattoria "Al Leone" in Collazone gut in wenigen Minuten mit dem Auto erreichbar.
Nach 12 Stunden Autofahrt - die letzten Kilometer ĂŒber Rumpelpisten- waren wir in unserem neuen 14-tĂ€gigen Feriendomizil angelangt. Das Ankunftsziel wurde in unserem Merzedes-Navi nicht erkannt, daher war die Info mit den Koordaten sehr hilfreich. Der erste Eindruck des Hauses war beindruckend. Das Haus entspricht voll und ganz den Beschreibungen und Bewertungen. Die QualitĂ€t der Einrichtung und Ausstattung ist auf einem so hohen Niveau, das wir in 20 Urlaub in Italien - immer in FerienhĂ€usern - nicht gewohnt waren. Besonders die Terrasse mit dem sehr groĂen Esstisch und der sehr gemĂŒtlichen Sitzecke mit dem freien Ausblick in die umbrische Landschaft waren ein Traum, den wir oft genossen haben. Wir waren sehr viel in den Ă€lteren Ortschaften der Umgebung unterwegs und haben in vielen LokalitĂ€ten die umbrische KĂŒchenkunst genieĂen können. Die ausgesprochen freundliche und liebenswerte Hausmanagerin Sylvia war uns dabei eine groĂe Hilfe. Wenn wir etwas nicht wussten konnen wir immer Sylvia kontaktieren. Kurzum, es hat uns so gut gefallen und wir haben das Haus so sehr genossen, dass wir bestimmt wiederkommen.
2 kleine details : een nauwkeurige wegbeschrijving op voorhand zou niet overbodig zijn. Zonnewering aan de ramen zou het huis nog koeler en de slaapkamers donkerder houden. Verder : alles perfect.
This was our first visit to Italy, the country and amazing with lovely landscapes and towns. Jan Erik you have the most beautiful house which we had the fortune to stay at for 9 days. Sylvia, the property manager, lives very close by and is extremely helpful.
There is a good supermarket 10km away in Todi which will have everything you will need.
The house has a lovely throughout, it has an outside covered area with table and chairs along with easy chairs to seat at for when you have finished eating so you can enjoy the sunsets in the evening over the valley. The house is very well equipped and clean, Wi-Fi works all through the house including the outside areas.
The pool is a good size and well-kept which we used most days. This must have been one of our most relaxing holidays we have ever had and will be looking forward to returning at some point in the future.
The roads in the area are a bit rough but with very little traffic, which means all you will hear are the birds and crickets.
We would highly recommend to anyone staying in the area to book this house, you will not be disappointed.
Best Regards
Trevor & Sahra
Lovely Peaceful brilliantly equipped villa with Stunning view
We rented Jan Erik's house on short notice because we were looking for a quiet, comfortable, peaceful place for my husband to recuperate after being seriously ill. From the first enquiry Jan Erik, and his wonderful manager, Sylvia, were quick to respond, very helpful, and completely accurate. This is a lovely house, brilliantly equipped, with good lighting, super comfy beds, excellent bathrooms, plenty of hot water and central heating that works. Add, a spectacular view, utter peace and quiet, and easy distance to both supermarkets and ATMs ( Bastardo) and stunningly pretty short ( under 30 minute) drives to Big Hitter Hill Towns like Montefalco and Bevagna in one direction and Todi in the other , and really - What more could you want? It's super value for money, too. A real winner.
Het huis is prachtig gelegen en het terras kijkt uit over het dal. Het huis is comfortabel en voorzien van alles wat relevant is.
We waren er voor de tweede keer en komen zeker heel graag nog vaker terug
