Information

Villa in Località San Valentino di Baschi stands in a magnificent commanding location on top of a hill, with fabulous views over the valley and the famous town of Todi. Locals use to call it "Terrazza dell'Umbria" Terrace of Umbria for the wide open views of Umbria that can be enjoyed from the property. The entire area belonged in the past ages to the nearby Historic Abbey of San Valentino.

 

This family villa is peaceful, private and a stroll away from the hillside hamlet of Morre, where a bar, a grocery, a farmacy and post office can be found, and Acqualoreto where there is one of the most characteristic restaurant of the area, Osteria La Cruccola, with Italian nonna preparing home made pasta and the best traditional recipes of the region. Both villages are 15/20 minutes walking distance from the villa, less than 5 minutes by car.

Villa in Località San Valentino di Baschi is situated just 20 minutes driving distance from Todi, one of Umbria's most beautiful hill towns, even described as one of the most liveable towns in the world. Its ancient streets are now home to varied museums, shops, wineries and excellent restaurants.

Todi, Spoleto, Perugia, Trasimeno Lake, Assisi and Orvieto are all near enough for a day trip.

The villa is secluded but not isolated, well connected to the the free motorway E 45 and the Highway A1. The boarder with Tuscany is 1 hour drive, Florence is 2 and half hours drive and Rome is 1 hour and 50 minutes drive.

TODI: Reached by an exciting drive through winding roads and hairpin turns, this ancient city is an unexpected delight. Todi has retained much of the original features and charming character of the town's diverse historical periods in the face of passing time. With a rich history that dates back to around 1300 BC, Todi was settled by the Umbri, an ancient pre-Etruscan people who gave it the name Tudere.
