Holiday Home/Apartment - 2 persons - Borgo il poeta snc - 06019 - Umbertide

The group of houses grew up around a military tower, in 1500, built along the border between Tuscany and Umbria, on the Umbrian side. The Chapel, dedicated to Santa Lucia, dates back to 1707 and its erection completed the gradual growth of the original settlement into a true hamlet. Borgo Il Poeta sits in ten acres of grounds and landscaped gardens overlooking the Tiber valley. All the houses have views of fields and wooded hills. La Casetta is the smallest of the houses and is set slightly apart from the others which makes it the most private. This former hay barn has been converted to make the most of its space. The entrance leads into the sitting room with wooden beamed ceilings and cool stone floors. Sitting room features a convertable Sofa bed, in case is needed. The sitting room leads through an archway into the small dining area and well-equipped kitchen. The large bedroom has an antique iron bed, which can be made up as a twin or double and which leads into the en suite bathroom with shower (no bath). Within the grounds there is a pool (6.4x13m) with views over the valley and a small gym next to "Bocce " playground 4550
