The Details...

Villa San Savino sits in a glorious hillside spot, overlooking acres of ancient Umbrian woodland and olives groves. This property is truly unique - a converted ivy-covered church, built in the 14th-century, it has been transformed into a stunning four bedroom villa for up to eight people, with tranquil gardens and a private pool.

The style of Villa San Savino is comfortable with a touch of luxury, chic and contemporary with rustic details. The thick stone walls and terracotta floors keep the villa cool and airy. Downstairs is a bright, spacious kitchen, fully equipped for any meal, from a big family lunch to a light snack to eat on the terrace. In the kitchen you'll find beautiful terracotta floor tiles, dating back hundreds of years. Also on the ground floor is the cosy living room, which used to be the actual chapel and also the open-plan dining room, with a further living space.

The property features four bedrooms. One en-suite double room is on the ground floor, and the remaining three are up on the first floor. Two rooms are double and one is twin. All are en-suite and have air con and are furnished in a soft and luxurious style.

The exterior of the villa reminds you just how ancient this place is. One of the oldest properties on the San Savino estate, the sense of history adds to the peaceful, tranquil atmosphere - you can forget the stresses of modern life here and just relax. Outside the villa is surrounded by well-tended gardens and a sun terrace where you can enjoy the incredible views. The outdoor pool is perfect for a dip to cool off on a hot afternoon, or for a few lengths before breakfast.

Villa San Savino is just 20km from Perugia, but with so many amenities on the luxurious San Savino estate, you may never want to leave. You'll find a restaurant, a golf course, activities such as yoga and pilates, and you can even enjoy spa treatments from the comfort of the villa. It really is the perfect location to unwind and enjoy the beauty and serenity of the Umbrian countryside.
