This is a real out of town experience! Helpful, thoughtful, engaging hosts on a lovely property. Many hill top towns to explore close by in beautiful Umbria.

Wir (2Erw. + 2Jugendl)sind in der sehr liebevoll restaurierten Ferienunterkunft von den Andrew und Hughes sehr nett empfangen worden. Es ist alles so wie in der Beschreibung dargestellt. Eingebettet in der sehr schönen und ruhigen Naturumgebung ,hier kann man die Seele baumeln lassen.Von diesem Reisedomizil lassen sich aber auch sehr gut Unternehmungen aus starten. Wir können dieses Domizil uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen.Bei diesem Anwesen handelt es sich um einen aussergewöhnlich schönes Feriendomizil bei dem es an nichts fehlt.

Our recent week in June of 2019 at Casale Monticchio in Umbria was exceptional! Andrew and Hugues are the owners and were gracious hosts throughout the week. We enjoyed a wonderful meal with them and other guests - and they were very generous and gracious throughout our stay. Four of us stayed in "The Barns" on the property - rustic, spacious, well-equipped, and wonderfully appointed. A beautiful outdoor pool overlooking the hay field for easy swimming and relaxation - which we used daily after trips to nearby hill towns and other excursions. Andrew and Hugues continue to improve the surrounding property and the various units - all done tastefully and with a lot of passion. The town of Split is just a couple of miles up the road in order to buy essentials. Although a portion of the drive into and out of the property is somewhat rough, no problem in getting in and out - and well worth the roughness. Close access to Perugia, Assisi, Marsciano, Lake Tramineso, and many other locations. Andrew and Hugues lined up a vineyard tour and wine tasting at a local winery - which was great - and they also provided great recommendations for day trips and dinners. A friendship with Andrew and Hugues was established almost instantaneously. We would go stay at Casale Monticchio again in a heartbeat.

This is the magical escape to Umbria we were looking for. Andrew and Hugues have created an amazing place in a wonderful part of Italy. We were in the larger apartment which is beautifully appointed with art, wonderful beds, a very comfortable couch, and the occasional visit by Sybil and Dora. Andrew and Hugues are fantastic hosts with a wealth of knowledge on possible activities in the area and beyond. You can tell that this place has been their labor of love for the past 17 years. We would recommend this place to everyone. We wish we could have stayed for longer.
