La Camerata - One Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 2

Located in the medieval picture-postcard village of Spello, you will find this gorgeous apartment perfect for an unforgettable holiday for two in Umbria.

Your modern, airy home is tastefully decorated to blend in nicely with the feel of the surrounding countryside, which you can gaze over from the balcony. Watching the sun set over the hills of the Chiona valley with a glass of local wine is an ideal way to spend an evening. A garden of 360sqm shared with the other owner's unit (Gens Flavia) is at guests' disposal. It's close to the apartment and enjoys mesmerising views of the Chiona Valley.

Spello is not on the usual tourist trails so you are able to bask in the atmosphere of a real, unspoilt Italian village. Your apartment sits adjacent to the Roman walls of the historic village, meaning you are just a stroll away from the main piazza. A walk around the local area is a real treat and you will find yourself wandering around the cobbled, flower-lined streets filled with beautiful peach-toned villas. In the village, you can find some great restaurants and artisan shops to visit.

Spello is surrounded by plenty of lovely towns and villages for you to visit for when you wish to do a little more exploring. Your apartment is just 8km from the town of Assisi for example, which is famous for Saint Francis of Assisi and the UNESCO World Heritage Site he left behind; the Basilica of San Francesco d’Assisi. The Basilica is a fantastic place to visit for tourists as well as being a site of pilgrimage. Assisi is also filled with other wonderful churches and monuments and is packed with art and culture. You will also find plenty of cafes and restaurants to head to after a busy day and lots of shops to explore.

Location:

La Camerata is wonderfully located for an Italian holiday. Situated in the walled village of Spello, you are able to experience Umbria however you wish. If you want to have a quiet and relaxing trip you are in an ideal location in the rolling hills and you can spend your days reading on your balcony, eating in local cafes or visiting the local wine regions. However, you are also well situated for a holiday filled with exploring beautiful, historic and culture-filled towns which are in easy reach! It is up to you how you choose to enjoy this breath-taking region.

For those wishing to get outdoors into the surrounding countryside, there is so much on offer! From hiking in the woodlands to fishing, bird-watching, lake-swimming and visiting vineyards there is plenty to do outdoors. Nature lovers will also enjoy the L’Infiorata festival which is held in Spello each June and sees the streets filled with art created from flowers and petals, it is truly a sight to behold.

If you are a history lover then you are spoilt for choice in this area, every direction you turn in you will find Roman ruins, medieval villages and historic religious buildings. Assisi is a great place to start and is only 8km away from the apartment. Why not book onto a walking tour while visiting Assisi and let the knowledgeable tour guides do the hard work for you. Assisi is also a great place to go if you are a food lover and is close enough to drive over there for an evening meal. Make sure to try some of the hearty Umbrian cuisine; in particular look out for local cheeses and truffles from the woodlands.

Another great place to visit is Perugia at 30km from Spello. Perugia is the main city in Umbria and has a fun, cosmopolitan feel. There are plenty of festivals held in Perugia each year ranging from Jazz festivals to chocolate festivals which are great to get involved in. Chocolate lovers can also visit a chocolate factory and go on a chocolate tour. If this all sounds a little sickly for your tastes you could spend the afternoon in the wonderful art galleries and museums which fill the city before unwinding in a cosy wine bar. Perugia is a city where medieval attractions sit alongside modern bars, shops and restaurants so you will find something for everyone on a day trip.
