    Poggio del Vento - Orvieto

    print this page

    Accommodates 7 - 4 Bedrooms - 4 Baths - Swimming Pool

    A deluxe country villa with its own swimming pool, Poggio del Vento is located just a short distance from the famous and beautiful cathedral town of Orvieto.

    The house is all on one level: the spacious, comfortably furnished living room with fireplace leads to an alcove with radio/CD player. A lovely dining area seats 8 or more. The kitchen is one of the best-equipped we have seen in Italy. There are three good-size bedrooms, two matrimonials, and the other with twins. Each has a bathroom adjacent (one with shower only). The fourth bedroom is a gracious single, recently redecorated, also with its own brand-new bathroom immediately across the hall. A utility room contains the appliances: washer, freezer, dishwasher.

    Gorgeous manicured grounds with English-style lawn and flowerbeds surround the property which slopes gradually down to the swimming pool area which has a shower, kitchenette, and covered eating-out area. The rental price includes maid service 3 hours each morning, 6 mornings per week. The housekeeper is available to do extra cleaning; personal laundry and ironing; and childcare. But she does not do cooking. Gardener/pool maintenance 5 times per week.

    All the sights of Umbria, Southern Tuscany, and upper Lazio are within an hour's drive, including such famous hilltowns as Todi, Viterbo, Montepulciano, and Pienza, as well as the gardens of Villa Lante, Villa Farnese, and Bomarzo. Rome is an easy daytrip, either by car or by train from Orvieto in 45-60 minutes. Families with well-behaved children are welcome, but you must keep in mind that the house is furnished elegantly. A delightful property in a great location.

    A substantial discount is offered during shoulder and low seasons for smaller groups wanting to experience this fantastic property. In this event, the bedroom across the patio is closed, so that what you get is 2 double bedrooms, 1 single, and 3 baths, for a maximum occupancy of 4 persons.
