About This Villa
This traditional stone farmhouse is the perfect setting for your rural escape in Umbria’s rolling green hills. Cascina Ranieri offers access to scenic walking routes in the Niccone Valley and picnics at Lake Trasimeno, paired with days out in the lively cities of Perugia and Città di Castello meaning you can explore all parts of Umbria with ease.
The villa is spread over two floors and offers a wealth of space for friends and family to gather together for a special trip. On the ground floor there is a large living room with comfortable sofas and a TV for watching a film together. The living room leads in to the dining area which in turn leads in to the well-equipped kitchen. If you need to work while here, you can make use of the light and airy study which doubles up as another bedroom when utilising the sofa bed.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms available to guests; There is a double bedroom, a room which can be set up as twin or double, a bedroom with two twin beds and also a smaller room with bunk beds which is ideal for the kids. The three larger bedrooms all boast en-suite bathrooms and views over the verdant grounds.
Outdoors, the living spaces continue under the two vast covered terraces. Here you will find outdoor sofas and armchairs, a dining table and a barbecue, so you and your party can spend balmy summer evenings cooking and eating al-fresco and soaking in the countryside views. The garden also offers lots of space for the kids to run around, a climbing frame, a boules court and a private heated swimming pool, so there is plenty to keep everyone happy.
Though the villa enjoys a rural setting, there are a number of charming little villages under 5km away from the home. These villages each have a handful of cafes, restaurants and shops and are lovely places to visit for a morning stroll.

The area surrounding the home is also ideal for nature lovers as there are walking and hiking trails on your doorstep and you can also discover the stunning landscape by bike or by horseback. If you would like to go for an open-water swim or would like to simply unwind on the beach, Lake Trasimeno makes for the perfect day out and is 38km away by car.
