Rent Villa Violin Rhododendron Umbria

Just outside the hamlet of San Giovanni del Pantano, this rural farmhouse is a special place indeed. From the exquisite pool to the grand yet homely interiors and terrace with sweeping views over olive trees and mountains, this home invites you to be in the moment with your loved ones. Days here are made for lazing in hammocks, floating idly in the pool, preparing gnocchi with local nonnas, or hunting for wild asparagus in the woodlands. The view from the poolside terrace is simply stunning, with verdant hills cloaked in mist in the morning. Gather the whole group on one of the terracotta-paved patios for meals. The sunsets here have to be seen to be believed and, in the evening, we can’t think of anything more delightful than lighting the candles and gathering round the outdoor table for a starlit Italian feast.
It’s a world of traditional Umbrian farmhouse inside, with wooden ceilings and original fireplaces in sitting rooms (there are several to choose from). Vintage travelling trunks, wrought-iron bedsteads and terracotta-tiled floors all add to the old-world feel of this sprawling villa.
If you can bear to leave your Italian idyll, pretty Perugia is twenty minutes away, and several excellent local vineyards are even closer.
