PERUGIA - 10 + 2 GUESTS

Vergiliano di Sopra is a charming farmhouse, embodying all that is wonderful about Umbria. Lovingly restored, the house sleeps 10 guests in five bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. There is a further twin bedroom that shares one of the bathrooms should your party be larger than ten.

Double height ceilings, antique furnishings and original stonework combine with sensational views to make Vergiliano di Sopra truly unique. Whilst maintaining its original charm, the house also boasts more modern comforts, such as wifi throughout, satellite tv and a state of the art BOSE surround sound system. For the younger ones, the games room offers the perfect refuge with table football and billiards.

Outside, fruit and cyprus trees offer dappled shade to shelter from the sun, whilst the terrace around Vergiliano's pool provides a great spot on which to relax and soak up the rays. The sheltered terrace is a fabulous spot for long lazy lunches, accompanied by a glass of the excellent local wine. In the evenings, enjoy dinner in the charming Limonia, with floor to ceiling windows to catch the dying rays.

Built on a promontory with no surrounding neighbours, the house has uninterrupted views of the rolling Umbrian countryside, surrounded by almond trees, olive groves and vineyards. The ancient fortified village of Vergiliano majestically crowns the distant horizon.
