casa rossa

General

The English owners of Casa Rossa have holidayed with us at least four times. They then bought this property, renovated it from top to bottom, live in it permanently, and have now given us the rental!
And with all that great Cottages to Castles holiday experience they will certainly know how to treat our guests well!
Moreover, the landscaped gardens, and the surrounding countryside of this fabulous part of Umbria, resemble parts of England - billiard table lawns, hedge-rowed lanes and gently rolling fields of wheat - but with much better weather of course!
The main house is where the owners live and Casa Rossa is an independent cottage, on one level, next door. Guests will find no stinting on the fixtures and fittings in this lovely high quality airy and spacious home that has the added benefit of a pool, for guests’ exclusive use.

Location

A mere 2 kilometres away is fortress-like Montecastrilli where the one kilometre long Viale G. Verdi is great for gentle walks and for observing the locals. Being southern Umbria, Renaissance Orvieto, Todi and Spoleto are all a relatively short drive away, as is Rome with access to the main A1 autostrada not twenty minutes drive away. Access to the property is via electric double gates, after which a short drive to covered parking. An illuminated pathway leads to the cottage. Hedges and trees have been strategically placed to provide maximum privacy between the two buildings. The pool area is furnished and has a covered relaxation area. The pool has a ’bleeding edge’ and measures 10m x 5m x 1.4m in depth. The cottage has a covered loggiato for those long slow meals al fresco.
