Where
is Umbria? |
Nested in the heart of
the Italian peninsula, halfway between Rome and Florence,
lies Umbria. With its hill-top towns and ancient castles,
sunflower fields and olive groves, it is a region
steeped in history, art and culture. Its cuisine and
wines rival those of its neighbours Tuscany and Lazio,
and its beauty, second to none, has earned it the
title “The Green
Heart of Italy”.
Around Umbria,
bordering Tuscany and the Trasimeno
Lake, Umbria
Rentals offers
a variety of short and long-term accommodation.
Through friends and family, we have collected unique
medieval and renaissance properties including apartments,
villas, farmhouse stays,
hotels and B&Bs.
Through availability calendars, currency
converters, slide shows and descriptions
of the properties and the area, we aim to provide
all the information required to decide if our properties
are right for you. If they are, let us be the ones
to welcome you to Umbria,
“The Green Heart of Italy”.

So
where can I stay... |
 |
Most of the properties are located
in Panicale, a fortified hilltop
town south of the Lake Trasimeno.
Like many of its neighbours in Umbria and
Tuscany, Panicale contains
artistic and architectural treasures from the middle
ages and the renaissance. Treasures that people stuck
on tourist trails and unaware of their existence never
get the chance to see.
In its three restaurants, fresh pasta,
truffles and wild boar are more the rule than the
exception, and at the bar, Aldo’s coffee machine
is always on. Festivals, concerts, feasts and religious
events are commonplace, and will give you a wonderful
insight into the inhabitant’s daily lives. Panicale’s
ideal location, halfway between Rome and Florence,
makes it the perfect base to explore the hill top
towns of Umbria and Tuscany, as well
as making day trips to the Roman and Renaissance capitals
of the world. To read more about Panicale
