Citta della Pieve farmhouse Rental Property Information

Palazzolo is an agritourism surrounded by farm vineyards and part of a farm of about 200 hectares in total surface. It has a private swimming pool 12x6 m in size and 1,5-2 m deep and a private garden, with a beautiful view both on Chiana Valley and Mt. Cetona (Tuscany) and on Citta' della Pieve (Umbria). Palazzolo is a self-catering unit very suitable for families or groups of about ten people willing to combine a relaxing holiday in the countryside with the chance to visit places with archaeological, artistic and natural beauties in Tuscany, Umbria and Latium. It could be used for daily trips to Florence, Rome, Siena, Cortona, Perugia, Assisi, Orvieto, Chianti, the Trasimeno Lake area and other beautiful destinations. The house combines the comfort of a villa with the rural location of an old farm-house and provides you with plenty of space to live in. Inside you can find old pictures of the last two centuries telling you the story of the farm, of the owners and of the territory.

Palazzolo is situated in Umbria, very close to the border to Tuscany, in an area anciently populated by the Etruscans. Many archaeological findings were discovered in the neighbourhood that can be seen in the Museum of Chiusi and in some tombs. To the north lies the Trasimeno Lake; it is surrounded by old villages, rich in towers and castles, and it has 3 islands, 2 of them can be also visited by boat. On the west side there are Chiana and Orcia Valleys, the latter is a UNESCO heritage site. The agricultural landscape is suggestive and where the vineyards are, it is possible to find wineries producing good Chianti or other local wines. Nearby there are many small towns, that are rich in ancient remains from Etruscan, Roman and Medieval times and also in thermal spas. At the Umbrian side, there are many cities like Perugia, Orvieto and Assisi, which are impressive for their beauty and for the artistic and archaeological heritage, which can be found in churches and museums there.

Notes:

Palazzolo has an equipped laundry room, so especially during the summer time you can decide to 'travel light' and wash your clothes during your holiday. The house has a floor heating system and there are local thermostats that allow to differentiate the temperature in the various rooms. Satellite TV can be used only with free channels. The area is covered by UMTS net, so if you have a UMTS modem you get broad band internet service. The house could be very suitable for elderly people provided that they can use the stairs from the living area (ground floor) to the first floor where there are three bedrooms. As regards suitability for pets, they have to be looked after, since there are other farms around with dogs (that in some cases or times are loose as they are sheep dogs). The swimming pool is heated by solar panels and, if the weather is clear, they can make the water up to 3 °C warmer than in 'normal' swimming pools, making it nicer especially in May and September.


Further Details for the farmhouse in Umbria, Italy

Further services and details - website If you are arriving late at night on Saturday and are concerned about supper or Sunday breakfast, it is possible to ask the owner to provide for some food. In this case you can send us a shopping list via e-mail with what you would like to find in the fridge at your arrival. In the case that we can satisfy your request, we'll give you confirmation and ask to pay for the shopping at your arrival. Besides, especially during the summer, there are several supermarkets in the area that are open on Sunday morning. The house has its own library with about 150 books in English and about 20 in French. For further details, please visit our website, which includes information (with further pictures) both on the house (included its layout) and on its surroundings (with a list of possible daily trips in Umbria and Tuscany). Our website has pages in: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Finnish and Swedish. You can find the link to our website at the end of this page.

Connections (airports, railways, roads) Although Palazzolo is located in the countryside, nevertheless it is easy to use our agritourism as a starting point for daily trips since the house is about 300 m from the provincial road and it is well connected both by road and by railway. The railway station of Chiusi-Chianciano Terme (on the track from Milan to Rome), from which you can easily reach Florence, Roma, Siena, Orvieto and other places, is about 10 km far from the house while the highway (E35 Milan-Rome) is only a little farther away (about 15 km). Being relatively close to the highway means that you can fly to many major airports (e.g. Rome, Florence, Pisa, Bologna, etc.) and be in Palazzolo by car with a trip that takes less than 3 hours. Besides, lately Ryanair has started flying from London (London Standsted) to Perugia (S. Egidio) and back three times a week and Perugia (S. Egidio) is only about 60 km from Palazzolo.

Spoken languages In the family of the owners several people master quite well English and one of us has Finnish as a mother tongue and a good knowledge of Swedish. Some of us studied French when at school and can manage reading and writing, although not very good at speaking.

Golf Information: The Lamborghini Golf Club (9 holes) is the closest golf course. Less than 40 km far from Palazzolo the Perugia Golf Club features an 18-hole course. Last year our Farm has made a special agreement with both of them so that our guests can save up to 20 % of the green fees. Please contact us for current prices.
