About this property

Aircon, wIfI, infinity pool, Jacuzzi, nr Spoleto, car recommended not necessary

Apt 4 is on the ground floor with a terrace area that seats 4 persons.

It is in a 2 storey converted farm house and retains a few of its original features.

Fabulous panoramic views from its terrace and front windows.

Spoleto Poolside has been our baby for at least 15 years and we have thousands of excellent reviews. Don’t be fooled by imposters who lift old photos from bankrupt sites. Come to us! We are the original and authentic agent for Spoleto Poolside.

Book with us and be assured of reliability.

Just 0.7 kms to the historic centre of Spoleto, a mediaeval walled, pedestrian city that predates Rome, 2 restored farmhouses with 6 self-catering apts, all with aircon.

Pool open April 15 to Sept 16.

We recommend a car unless you are the fit types, used to walking up hill and do not wear high heels.

The campus consists of 6 beautiful, air-conditioned, 2 bedrooms/1 bathroom apts with pool + Jacuzzi.

Each apt sleeps 4.

10 mins easy walk to either Spoleto centre or the train station, from where you can get to practically anywhere in Italy.

Each apt has 1 sitting/dining room with fully fitted kitchen, 1 double bedroom + 1 twin bedroom + 1 shower Rm/wc.

A communal utility room contains a washing machine.

All the apts have spectacular views from their front windows and patios, terraces + balconies.

An exclusive, infinity pool, a jacuzzi, a BBQ area and a large covered verandah besides the pool completes this dream venue.

The rate includes a lift, free of charge, to and from the station, on arrival and departure days, for the 1st arrivals without a car (during social hours). This offer is subject to a driver being available and the car being Ok. To date, we have always been able to provide this service !

Arrival/departure dates flexible, subject to availability.

Impressive features of Spoleto Poolside are the infinity pool, the Jacuzzi, the BBQ area with its wondrous views, the very beautiful manicured gardens and the spectacular panoramic views from the windows, balcony and terraces of all the apartments.

Standing on a small hill, outside the city walls, Spoleto Poolside is the nearest and largest pool property to central Spoleto. Add to that, a stunning and convenient location – simply unbeatable !

This location is the best !

Spoleto centre and the station within spitting distance and the mountains all around you.

Spoleto Poolside is a tranquil place with easy access to all the Hot-spots….assisi, Perugia, Trevi, Spello, Norcia, Perugia, Todi, Gubbio and, just over an hour to Rome.

This absolutely brilliantly designed group of 6 self catering apartments is not just an aesthetic delight and completely authentic, Spoleto Poolside is perfectly placed for those who want the best of all possible worlds.

With a large infinity pool, a Jacuzzi, a BBQ area and expansive gardens, atop a hill, just outside the city walls, amidst resplendent grounds, immersed in acres of wondrous countryside, a romantic and glamorous setting, these 6 self catering apts, all with Wifi + air con, are complete with original features…arches, beams, exposed stone and tiny nooks and crannies.

At the end of your lane, just a few minutes walk, there is a bus-stop from where you can hop on a bus to reach the top of Spoleto and the famous Rocca and Il Ponte. Very convenient if you only fancy walking down-hill, through the pretty, cobbled and arched streets of Spoleto, passing the myriad of shops, bars and restaurants along the way, pausing only for a flute of chilled prosecco, a gelato or a cappuccino or all three !

A mellow, beautiful and tranquil place, the jacuzzi, the manicured grounds, the BBQ area and the infinity pool, all ensure that you can lie back and totally relax.

One moment you are floating in the pool and the next you are wandering in the fairy-tale city of Spoleto, through arched, cobbled streets, exploring alleyways and byways, admiring frescoes, browsing museums, visiting churches and indulging your senses in the many shops, bars and restaurants, sampling the finest that Italy can offer and, far more cheaply than touristy places such as Venice, Todi or Florence.

Umbria’s most up-market supermarket is just 5 min walk down the lane. At the bar, sipping your proseccho, you can spot famous faces from all over the world, Yet, lounging in the landscaped grounds, you are unaware that the local facilities are so close.

There is no traffic on the country lane leading to these 6 apts, except for the cars belonging to the owners of the other 2 villas along this lane. Here is tranquility, a choice of town or country, at the same time.

The glamorous pool (100 sq mts) is the largest and closest pool, either private or public, to the historic centre of Spoleto. With lots of sun-loungers placed around a wide patio area surrounding the pool, guests can sunbathe and relax without undue disturbance from other guests.

The wide patio area forms a complete border around the pool and, together with expansive lawns and gardens, replete with nooks and crannies, it is easy to retain absolute privacy, should you wish to.

From any point in the gardens, there are the most stunning panoramic views of the pool, the pretty grounds and the countryside beyond, truly magnificent views across swathes of crop fields, distant dwellings, and, mountains fringing the horizons.

Here is a place to just be, to allow yourself to be mesmorized and to submit to an inner calm.

There is a private car-park adjacent to the property….. free of charge.

Spoleto is one the most un-touristy places you will find. Extremely popular with Italians because, not only is it beauitful, but, the Spoletini have remained faithful to their traditions. Here you will find live theatre, operas, concerts, ballets and plays, all year round. But, be prepared to hear only Italian spoken.

Foreigners are welcomed in this area by the local Italians. The language of food, wine and clothes is universal. So, it doesn't matter if you don't speak Italian.

Further, in Spoleto, as well as the surrounding villages and hill-top towns, sagras take place throughout the year, celebrating the harvesting of truffle, asparagus, olives, grapes, maize, tomatoes……. Halloween and various saints’ days. Big spreads are provided, free of charge (or almost), as a kind of offering to the gods, a thanksgiving of good fortune, except that you will be the recipients and not the gods ! Indeed, any excuse will do for a celebration !

Spoleto is the Italians’ favourite place in Umbria – some say in Italy. Now, Italy’s best kept secret has been revealed. And, Spoleto is enjoying its new found fame. The locals are so friendly. Once here, you are bound in a kinship of love and worship of all that is most precious to the Italian….. sculpture, architecture, works of Art and, above all, food ! Not to mention wine, shopping and the most famous of all activities – the passeggiata !

Stunning property in beautiful area.
Wonderful time had by the whole family (children aged 7 and 9). Evenings by the pool and on the veranda were perfect. Spoleto is also a splendid city. Highly recommended.

What a stunning base. What a stunning Holiday!!
July 2010 Having never been to the Umbrian region of Italy; my family (kids aged 10 and 13 and my husband and I), didn't know what to expect. We were blown away! The apartment was ideally situated - It felt like it was in the countryside and had fab views but was 2 minutes by car to Spoleto. The apartment was clean and rustic and was cool when we needed to escape the sun. The supplies left for us made it a home from home and there was no need to panic and rush to the market. The pool was beautifully kept (cleaned daily) and we had many a meal over looking the pool whilst the sun went down - idyllic. A BBQ was provided and a small local mini-mart was at the bottom of the hill. Dinner at Villa Marianna (ask Laurie) was one of our best nights - Way up in the mountains, great views and authentic Italian food, cooked by 'mama'. Spoleto was buzzy and perfect for long suppers and people watching! The Ice Cream parlours were gorgeous too. The Spoleto escalator opened the day before we arrived and is well worth a look. Spoleto is a fantastic base to set off and site see, whether by train or by car. All in all - One of our best family holidays :o) Thank you Norma & Laurie. Hope to see you again.

Fantastic holiday in Spoleto by the Pool!
We had the best time in the Spoleto by the Pool apartments! The property was very well organized and clean and the apartments are all very roomy and with that authentic Umbrian/Italian feel...... The airco and pool were very important to me because it can get very hot in Umbria in the summer and it is so great to come home after a warm day in town to enjoy the freshness of the airco apartment and the beautifull pool on the property! The owners are very helpful with all one might need and because of this the stay in Spoleto by the Pool is really perfect and without any flaws! I am recommending this property to all my friends and relatives, because I am sure they would like it there as much as I have. Moreover Spoleto is such a great liitle city....so much to do and so many nice peopel living there! We have enjoyed great jazz, lovely classical concerts, ballet and other forms of art during the famous Festival of two worlds in Spoleto and we have enjoyed the BEST food ever in and around Spoleto. I have no bad or less good experiences to write about and I have spend 4 solid weeks in Spoleto by the Pool. In short: if you are thinking to spend your holiday in Italy: book an apartment at Spoleto by the Pool because you will not find a better place in Umbria for that price!! review by Yildiz de Kat from the Netherlands.

About the host

Hosted by Norma Williams

Host profile image
I am a retired university Philosophy lecturer.

Married for 30 years to the gorgeous Laurie.

We fell into the holiday rental business in 2001 after relocating permanently to our holiday home in Italy.

We were persuaded to rent part of our home to a violinist performing in the Festival of Two Worlds. And, after lazing around for 8 years, post retirement, spending 3 months of the European winter in Sydney each year, it was great to to start “doing something” again!

So, our holiday rental business was born.

Now, we’ve been awarded the status of Superhost by that well known disruptive holiday rental site across all 70 or so of the properties we own in part but mainly manage with a small group of trustworthy Italians - much richer than ourselves!!

Hence you have a wonderful choice of both central Spoleto apartments with terraces and wondrous views alongside magnificent country villas and apartments, all with pools !

Our business friends gently mock us, describing our business as “life style”. And, yes, it is. Money is not our goal. Offering you the holiday of a lifetime is our goal, enabling you to share in the wonderment that we enjoy every day is our goal. To achieve this is our greatest reward!
