About this property

Beautiful apartment in restored stone farmhouse. Comfortably hosts 4-5 people: 2 bedrooms with balconies, 2 bathrooms, well-equipped kitchen. Located in the green hills outside Spoleto. The farmhouse is typically Umbrian in style: stone, bricks, terracotta, with immense chestnut beams. It was rebuilt in 2008: the interior is spacious, light, clean, simple, with antique furnishings. Guests have commented that the kitchens are "gorgeous"! Our two apartments ("I Meli"and "I Fichi") are adjacent and can be connected to make a large living space for up to 10 people. Come taste our organic farm produce: fruit, veg, eggs, cheese!

Peace and quiet in the mountains of Umbria

Darcy is a kind and thoughtful host. We were greeted with freshly picked raspberries from her garden and fresh eggs from her chickens. Anything you need, Darcy is extremely accommodating. The area of the property is gorgeous and very peaceful! No one around for miles!

Middle of nowhere.

The house well. Accessibility is very poor, barely passable for 1.5 km. Upon arrival it turned out that the free WiFi could hardly be used according to the instructions. If you go back to the 1970s, a great place to stay. We left after one night. In our opinion, not suitable for the elderly. We have different ideas when it comes to celebrating holidays.
