Description
Set in the hills around Lake Trasimeno, near the border of Umbria and Tuscany, are comfortable apartments with all mod-cons.These two old farmhouses of the agro-tourist complex, have been recently re-structured, and are called Poggio Verde and Poggio del Sole.

Roughly 200 metres distant, each from the other, they are to be found in the hills circling the lake, Lago Trasimeno, at an altitude of c. 300 metres (1,000 feet) close to the border with Tuscany and Lake Chiusi with its Etruscan archaeological sites.

For day-trips there are many easily reached hill-towns, often centres for Umbrian and Etruscan art and culture. Florence and Rome are equally accessible for the day. In the immediate vicinity,Lago Trasimeno is surrounded by numerous woods, beaches and castles often of medieval origin. Nearbye is Cortona, recently celebrated in her book "Under the Tuscan Sun" by Frances Mayes. Also nearbye are Montelpulciano and Montalcino, famous for their fortifications, walks, and the splendid wine which they produce.

(The films “Nostalgia” by Tarkovsky was shot in Bagno Vignoni, “The English Patient” between Mentepulciano and Pienza, and the recent “Midsummer Night's Dream” with Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weayer in Montepulciano)


 
Amenities
Wherever possible we have maintained the original character of the buildings. Fourteen apartments have been created - seven in each farmhouse. They vary in size sleeping from 2 to 9 people. Each is completed with all mod-cons and with individual central heating for the winter months. Each farmhouse has a different character "Poggio del Sole" is flanked by cypresses and figs and surrounded by olive trees, whereas "Poggio Verde" is characterised by the many Umbrian ”umbrella” pines. The gardens around each house are spacious and each apartment has its own lawn with tables, chairs and recliners.

Obviously each has also its own swimming pool (7 x 14 metres) with a paddling area for younger children. There are games for babys. The apartments are furnished in a simple functional manner, maintaining the local traditional rustic style. All have beds in wrought-iron, bathrooms with showers, fully furnished kitchens, crockery and linen.
