Escape to the rolling hills of Umbria in this updated farmhouse (90 m2 over 2 floors) that retains its original charm. The home features classic beamed vaulted ceilings, original stone finishes, an indoor wood-burning fireplace, private entrance and a private garden terrace. The shared pool has a large sun lounge area.

The space
When we moved to Italy in 2008, we bought a couple of old country houses, and renovated them into spacious (90 m2, 900 sqft) luxurious gems.
As we enjoy a nice house with a good atmosphere we ensured that the house is built with materials that represent Italy as it was, with: travertine floors, large beams from chestnut wood, exposed stone work, sinks crafted from local quarried stone ('pietra serena') etc..
During our travels through Italy we could not find modern, fresh, all comfort included houses and a good atmosphere for rent.
Therefore, we decided to build it ourselves and we are ready to share our place with our guests.
Guest access
You will find us in a small hamlet called Prato in the commune of Monte S.Maria Tiberina, 2 km from the border with Tuscany in the North of Umbria, in an area very close to the Marche.
We value easy access. Our house is in a little village and as there is an asphalt road to the village, there is no need to drive for kilometers on a white (gravel) road to reach us. The next town, Città di Castello, is an easy 20 minutes drive. Here you can find everything you need from shops to food, restaurants and museums.
Every apartment is built to be a separate unit, you have complete privacy with a private terrace and private entrance. The house is equipped with everything you may want on a holiday; Netflix, Prime (free) wireless Internet throughout the whole house, a washer/dryer, air-conditioning in the bedrooms and mosquito nets on all windows and doors to give you a good night rest.
For guests that are coming in autumn, winter or early spring we have a nice fireplace in the living room that also heats the radiators throughout the whole house.
A plunge pool (4x9 m) is available for the guests from May till October. Your private terrace gives you all the privacy you'd want.
Other things to note
Public transport does not come to our location. You will need a car; you can rent one from any of the agencies at the airports you can use to fly in.
The Perugia airport is the closest by at 50 min, but also Firenze, Bologna, Pisa or Rome are all close by, with the furthest a 2,5 hour drive.
When you want to dine out we offer a taxi service (for a small fee) where we bring you to the restaurant and pick you up again (in the villages surrounding our place). This way you can enjoy the food, wine (maybe a little grappa) etc. without having to worry about drinking and driving.

Lives in Prato, Italy
We're a dutch couple that, after years of visiting Italy during the holidays, and having discussed and fantasized of living in Italy many, many times we decided in 2008 it was time to execute our ideas and move to Italy where we bought 5 little houses (a borgo) of which 3 we turned into Tofanello holiday homes.
With pride, we would like to present the results of our blood sweat and tears, our Tofanello luxury apartments and hope that it makes you want to come by and visit our beautiful spot in the sun.
