About this property

Villa Lavanda Todi, countryside casale with private pool in the heart of Umbria

The casale enjoys a privileged position overlooking the Tevere valley and the soft green hills that surround it. It has a private swimming pool surrounded by a composition of lavender and rosemary, gorse, oak, and olive trees. There are 3 bedrooms, including 2 doubles, 3 bathrooms, sleeps 7. The kitchen on the ground floor is fully equipped, the fireplace in the living room is a welcoming meeting place during the autumn evenings.
Discover the surroundings and get back to the casale for an aperitivo by the pool and dinner under the patio, with fireflies illuminating the rosemary. Turn off the lights and let your gaze get lost in the Milky Way.

Villa Lavanda is a 15-minute drive from Todi, the medieval Umbrian jewel known at the beginning of this century as the 'most liveable town in the world'. It is only a short distance from the picturesque little borgo of Montecastello di Vibio (7,5km). It’s a perfect starting point for daily trips to Deruta (30min drive, ceramic and terracotta), Perugia (45min drive, eurochocolate, Umbria Jazz Festival), Orvieto (50min drive), Assisi (1h drive) and typical cashmere production villages like Bevagna, Ripabianca, Spello or Solomeo.
Local restaurants offer delicious regional dishes and it is possible to buy organic food from local farmers.

Beautiful villa in the Umbrian countryside
Fantastic property with beautiful grounds, a very nice house and a large pool. Despite unseasonably hot weather, the air conditioning in the bedrooms kept us nice and cool! Excellent communication from Luca, who was extremely welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend this rental!

Private, peaceful setting but house badly needs upadating.
First the positives. Luca, house the owner, is very pleasant & helpful. He explained everything about the property on our arrival, but we were of course extremely tired after a long drive and much of what he told us was quickly forgotten. A written account to refer to would have been appreciated. The outdoor area is verdant and mature, and the pool area is tranquil and private. This is where we spent most of our days. Unfortunately, the house did not live up to expectations. Unlike the photographs, it is actually very dark and cluttered, with old, uncomfortable furniture. The sofa is horribly hard, (in fact a very old wooden sofa bed) and the armchair is ancient with several tears in the fabric. If we had only been visiting for a week it probably wouldn't have mattered as we would have been out every night, but we booked the house for two months. I love cooking but all the kitchen appliances have also outlived their natural life and badly need replacing. The washing machine and sink exuded a stagnant water smell, the fridge was not cold enough and the hob / oven reminded me of my student days. When one of the toilets broke twice during our stay, we were told it was 'fragile'. Overall, Villa Lavander is a wonderful short break, but not a place one can stay for any length of time. We cut our trip short and left after a month. Despite great inconvenience at having to find alternative accommodation, we could not have stayed longer.

Beautiful location!!
This was my first time booking a VRBO and was a little nervous, especially in another country! I was making arrangements for my husband and self along with my daughter, her husband, 3 yr old and their 6-week-old baby so I wanted to make sure the accommodations were nice. Luca responded to everyone question I had within a timely manner. I asked him for recommendations for dinner and he gave us a detailed list with descriptions and locations. Due to a language barrier, there was some confusion with one of our reservations. He went above and beyond by contacting the location for us and making the reservation for us. Getting to the villa was quite an adventure as we had a large van and the road up the hill was very narrow, bumpy and at times we wondered if we would even fit, but we made it! My son-in-law became an expert at navigating it! The villa was clean and appeared just as it was on the website. The pool is not heated but the weather was hot, so it felt good. The only recommendations we have would be to provide additional garbage bags (we didn't have any extras other than what was already in the garbage cans which was needed with a newborn and diapers), and all of the glasses in the hutch were really dusty, so we ended up having to wash most of them. I would recommend this villa to anyone who is looking to stay in the Umbria Todi area. I want to thank Luca for being so helpful and being so quick to respond to all my questions or requests!

Beautiful
This is a beautiful villa in a wonderful setting. Luca quickly replaced some missing items when we arrived and then we relaxed and enjoyed the views, the pool and the local area. It doesn’t really matter when the setting is so great but the internet is poor and the wifi not available through the whole house. Air conditioning is appreciated though sometimes simple fans would be enough.

Absolutely wonderful!
We had a wonderful 1-week stay at Villa Lavanda in July 2021. The house is beautiful (inside and outside), the pool is wonderful, and the views are amazing. We are a large family (four children) and enjoyed the spacious rooms and good kitchen and bathroom facilities. Luca is a very friendly host and all communication was quick and positive. We spent our days at the pool and exploring the local area. Our daughters enjoyed horse riding with Letizia at Sorelle Biologiche (15 minutes away). We also enjoyed local truffle bought from Andrea in nearby Mannella. We recommend trips to Todi, Orvieto, and Deruta. We would love to come back!

Wonderful, peaceful with breathtaking views
While the house is tidy and spacious - very much a home - with a particularly comfortable and well-equipped kitchen, the very best thing about this house is the location, at the top of a hill, looking out across the stunning view of dramatic hills and meadows with the occasional historic hilltop town receding into the distance. It’s garden is also perfect; the walk down the stone path, lined with lavenders and rosemary bushes to the gorgeous pool, is unforgettable. Days spent lazing around the pool or lying in the dappled shade of a fruit or olive tree. Utterly heavenly.

The house, garden and swimmingpool are beautiful, it is very quiet, only de last few hundred metres of the road are in bad condition, but that was not really a problem. The host was very polite as well.

Amazing rural location with fantastic pool
Would love to give 5 stars, but this property was advertised with air conditioning and there is none. This was a surprise, particularly as the temperature on arrival was 41 degrees C, and the properties are designed for colder winters than Mediterranean properties. Having purchased 2 fans, it was slightly more bearable to sleep, but uncomfortable, and of course led to an increase in insect bites through leaving the windows open. White goods, TV, Stereo etc could do with an upgrade. The pool is amazing and the lavender smells great, attracting many bees. The dirt track to the property is not good for a small car and may invalidate car hire insurance, particularly for under car damage. The local wildlife is awesome - saw a family of 12 wild boar closeup one evening, and 2 wild horses visited the neighboring olive grove which was quite a surprise. No wifi was a shock to the children, but great if you want to get away from it all - 1 bar of 3G - This is not a complaint but a compliment as no work done during the 2 week stay. Luca, the owner met us on arrival and showed us around the property. There was a restriction on the amount of electricity per week, but this was generous, and unless you plan to hoover 24/7 it would be difficult to use this (there are wooden floors so not required!). Storage space for clothes is quite limited as there is a lot of personal items in the cupboards, and there were around 5 or 6 coat hangers in one wardrobe. It did not quite meet with our expectations, but with some effort this could certainly be made into a fantastic holiday property.
