We absolutely loved this place as soon as we arrived. The photos had looked good, but this was even better than we expected. We had a lovely friendly welcome from the cleaner’s daughter who spoke good English. Everything from the view, the pool, the terrace, the bedrooms and all the facilities did not disappoint. Everything is here that you need. The village was a five minute walk away and the locals were very friendly. We had a good coffee at the local cafe, there are two small supermarkets and a lovely ice cream place, as well as a great restaurant that we went to twice. Plus a market every Tuesday - great fish stall. Also interesting and beautiful villages to visit in the nearby area. We had a truly fabulous holiday!
Das Haus ist sehr schön, groß und mit allem ausgestattet. Wir hatten immer über 35 Grad, so dass eine Klimaanlage gut getan hätte, aber es ging auch so. Das Haus liegt in einem kleinen Dorf, wo man ein gutes Restaurant fußläufig hat. Bäcker, Metzger und auch kleine Lebensmittelgeschäfte sowie eine Bar. Wir hatten das Glück, dass die ganze Woche Stadtfest war. Das war sehr nett.
Der Ausblick ist wunderbar und der große Pool wurde täglich genutzt und brachte die nötige Abkühlung. Lediglich die Bestuhlung am Pool inkl. Auflagen könnte erneuert werden (es gab nur 2 Auflagen, wir waren zu dritt), aber das sind nur Kleinigkeiten. Alena war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir hatten das Haus für uns allein. Die linke Hälfte gehört den Eigentümern, diese waren aber nicht vor Ort! Wir können das Haus uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
Peaceful, spacious house within walking distance of village
This house is lovely. Has lots of space, a big garden and amazing views. Short walk to a village with small shops, bars and a restaurant.
The house is clean and comfortable. Alena, the manager, is friendly and solved any issues we had. She’s lovely.
We utterly enjoyed our stay at Il Mulino. Stunning views, lovely house, walking distance to San Terenziano, a small village of the beaten tourist track just 20 minutes drive from Todi.
The house is beautiful and spacious, with a large and well maintained garden. Great views over the hills and the valleys below. The house, the garden and the pool are very well maintained and clean (an extra umbrella would be beneficial to provide more shade.., the single umbrella does not cater for more than two people). Alena, the property manager, was really helpful and hard working, always available to ensure we all had a good stay. The village is well located for visiting several major Umbria local towns. We would recommend il Mulino to anyone looking for a relaxing and peaceful holiday in a beautiful place
Beautifully situated house with a view over the hills and the river valley below. We received a warm and friendly welcome by Alena and had a problem free stay in the house. A well-equipped kitchen and an exterior barbeque made cooking at home easy. The pool was clean and well looked after.
My husband and I were delighted with il Mulino from the moment we drove through the gate. This is a beautiful property, thoughtfully appointed, and lovingly maintained. The vistas from the terraces are extraordinary, presenting as they do the magic of the Umbrian landscape. Another really fine feature of our stay was the warmth and charm of the owners, who treated us more like good friends than paying guests.
Wir habe unseren Aufenthalt in diesem wunderschönen Haus sehr genossen. Besonders der weite Blick ins Land und die Sonnenuntergänge waren spektakulär. Die Einkäufe im Ort haben sehr zu einem lässigen Erholungsurlaub beigetragen. Perugia, Orvieto, Assisi, Todi und viele Orte mehr haben uns sehr gefallen. Wir würden jederzeit wieder nach San Terensiano kommen. Herzlichen Dank an Patricia und Paul!
Durchdacht und liebevoll ausgestattetes und sehr gut gepflegtes Haus mit beeindruckender Aussicht. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war unkompliziert und absolut verlässlich. Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen.
Très belle villa restaurée avec goût, entourée d'un magnifique jardin très bien entretenu qui ouvre sur une vue panoramique à couper le souffle: chaque coucher de soleil est unique!
La piscine est installée dans cet écrin, elle est tres bien entretenue elle aussi. Le jardinier et la femme de ménage sont discrets, aimables et efficaces. Mention particulière pour la propreté de la villa.
Les commerces du village fournissent l'essentiel (boulangerie, épicerie, pharmacie).
Possibilité de belles visites à proximité.
Des hôtes généreux et attentionnés au moindre détail : la corbeille d'accueil avec des produits locaux en est un exemple.
Nous recommandons sans réserve cette location et nous y reviendrons!
Compliments à Patricia et Paul!
Wir hatten 12 sehr schöner Tage in Umbrien. Das Haus bietet durch seine Hanglage einen wundervollen Blick. Das Haus selbst ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und wunderschön. Vom tollen Pool blickt man auf die Hügellandschaft Umbriens.
Die Kommunikation mit unseren Gastgebern war sehr gut. Hilfsbereit und kompetent konnten wir auch Infos und Tips für den Urlaub erhalten. Man liest es heraus: wir sind von der Urlaubsregion und dem tollen Haus in San Terenziano begeistert.
An absolutely wonderful property. Everything you could need with a lovely ambience, very comfortable, stunning view and swimming pool. Rita, who greeted us, couldn't do more. Highly recommended.
I am originally from Umbria and now live abroad. I wanted to visit Umbria with some friends: we were looking for comfort, privacy, space, convenient location and view.
Well…this villa hits them all.
First of all, the communication with the owners was fast and clear.
The villa is a beautifully restored rural house, very private, with a pool overlooking the green hills to the west, perfect for sunsets.
The room are spacious, spotless clean, and the housekeepers went above and beyond to make our stay very special.
We highly recommend this villa and hopefully we will be back soon.
Das Haus liegt wunderschön mit genialem Blick in den Sonnenuntergang. Es ist sehr großzügig und liebevoll eingerichtet. Der Pool ist von den Nachbarn nicht einzusehen und die vielen Liegemöglichkeiten lassen keine Wünsche übrig. Der Bäcker und alle wichtigen Geschäfte sind zu Fuß gut zu erreichen. Marta hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen und konnte allen Fragen wundervoll beantworten. Das Haus ist uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen! Wir wünschen allen einen tollen Aufenthalt.
A just wonderful house, stunning view in a very nice village
A great house with a stunning view. The house with great atmosphere and lovely details offered everything we could have asked for on our family trip.
A great pool. A very well equipped kitchen to ensure that we enjoy the dolce vita.
A very nice welcome by Marta, the house manager. Good contact to Patricia.
Just wonderful holidays!
Some information:
Enjoy Montefalco and his winerys, Todi, Perugia, Assisi and his spirituality... and the village San Terenziano, his restaurant, bars, bakery, supermarkets and, of course, the barber....
Prachtig groot huis met meer dan voldoende plek voor 7 man, geweldig uitzicht, lekker zwembad met voldoende ligbedjes!
Gezellig klein dorpje op loopafstand.
Wij hebben enorm genoten!
We all fell in love with the house it was fabulous. Lots of different sitting areas and the shutters and thick walls kept the house cool
The pool was lovely and we used it a lot. We enjoyed coming back to Umbria and a lot of the Umbrian towns are within distance to travel to. Patricia has been a wonderful host from booking the holiday endlessly answering questions and organizing a wheelchair for our mum
IIona and her mum were always on hand and sorted out swiftly and efficiently water when there was a problem with supply in the town, much appreciated
Would definitely recommend and would love to return
Perfekter Urlaub für den der Ruhe, Natur und Entspannung sucht
Ein besonderes Erlebnis, in einer ehemaligen Mühle zu wohnen. Die Einrichtung und der Komfort lassen keine Wünsche offen. Haus, Pool und der unvergleichliche Blick in die Weiten Umbriens sind einfach großartig. Die beiden Eigentümer standen jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Danke nochmals für die phantastische Zeit.
The house is spacious, with amazing views across the valley and every night we had stunning sunsets. The pool was well-maintained and clean, and not overlooked at all. Ilona, the property manager, and Patty and Paul, the owners, were really helpful, communicative, and wanted to ensure we had a lovely time - which we certainly did.
The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was small but well-equipped, and there was good outside space. We would have liked more comfortable seating on the balcony for sunset watching, but that's a minor quibble.
The house was immaculately clean, and it felt like home. It was very relaxing, and very peaceful. The photos do not do it justice.
San Terenziano has a small but good market on Tuesdays, but we tended to stay in each evening so didn't try local restaurants. We ventured out most mornings to visit local towns - we highly recommend Montefalco, Bevagna, Todi, Spoleto and Spello. Assisi was over-run with tourists - and probably even more so when there's no pandemic.
The roads around San Terenziano are in a dreadful state, which made driving slower and more exhausting - another reason for stating home in the evenings.
We would recommend Il Mulino in a heartbeat to anyone who wanted a calm and peaceful holiday, but a car is definitely necessary. We loved our visit.
We spent a wonderful vacation. The house is very beautiful and clean. There are a great team to make your days perfect! The property manager is very kind and available. I really suggest this house!
A wonderful comfottable and well equipped house with swimming pool. Lovely terrace from which to watch the fantastic sunsets.
Easy to walk into village with bars, shops and a good restaurant.
Nothing to fault.

Amaizing view, beautifull, cosy house, a sweet home.
La maison est superbe. Très bien équipée, très agréable à vivre, plusieurs salons, une cuisine très bien équipée, des chambres très confortables, bonne literie, spacieuses et bien décorées.
L'extérieur n'est pas en reste, le jardin est magnifique, extrêmement bien entretenu, la végétation est luxuriante et bien entretenue, la piscine est légèrement en contrebas de la maison, une volée d'escalier permet d'y accéder.
Ce qui nous a marqué dans cette maison, en plus de tout cela, c'est la vue !!!! 180° de vue sur les montagnes de l'Ombrie et cerise sur le gâteau, le couché de soleil juste en face !
Le seul bémol que nous pourrions trouver, les temps de trajet. Les 18km jusqu'à Todi se font en 25 bonnes minutes... Les routes sont très sinueuses et pas très bien entretenues, mais ça n'a aucun rapport avec la maison, cela fait partie des charmes de cette partie de l'Ombrie.
Nous recommandons vivement cette superbe propriété a ceux qui aime les belles maisons et les vues a couper le souffle.
Merci à Patty qui a été aux petits soins pendant la réservation et pleines d'attentions quand nous sommes arrivés, un panier de bienvenue nous attendait dans la cuisine. Top !

About the host
Hosted by Patricia Mattausch Johnson
We are originally from Washington State, but have been international educators for over 30 years. We have lived in Berlin, Athens, Melbourne, Manila, New Delhi, Osaka, Amsterdam, Jakarta and Rabat. Throughout our travels, we have spent considerable time in Italy, and have developed a love for the country, particularly the small towns out in the countryside. As our relationship with Italy grew, so did our desire to find a place to call "home" after all our years of educating around the globe.
Why they chose this property
As noted above, we grew to love Italy and enjoy the life in the countryside while having access to the cultural riches of Rome, Florence, Siena and Assisi. We looked for several years for something that "sang" to us, and finally found that place in a small hill town called San Terenziano. When we drove up to il Mulino, still under renovation, we knew immediately that we had found our home. We visit as often as possible and look forward to retiring there. Given it's location and beauty, we find that our relatives are more than willing to come to us!
What makes this property unique
The house sits on a top of a hill at the edge of the village, and everything is accessible by walking. Rome, Florence and Siena are day trips, and Assisi, Montefalco, Todi and Orvieto are easy half day outings. At the same time, we can enjoy the peace and pace of the village. The area is largely agricultural and the sweeping views are ever changing because of it. Quite simply, it is "home", and our circle of Italian and international friends in the area continues to expand.
