Il Gusto del Paese is a Taste of Heaven

This estate, nestled in the Umbrian hills, is ideal for groups and families. This historical structure has been completely renovated to the highest standards. The grounds provide something for everybody! From a well-manicured property with outdoor lighting highlighting the magnificent landscaping, a beautiful pool overlooking paradise and workout facility with treadmill, a large outdoor barbecue with Pizza Oven and several outdoor dining areas, this oasis in the Umbrian hills is a real gem! There are actually two separate sparkling clean homes on the property separated by a large outdoor dining area under the olive trees. In the main house you will discover a fantastic gourmet kitchen with every modern convenience and a well-stocked honor bar for your favorite drinks. We had a local chef prepare dinner for our group - a delicious choice! There are four large bedrooms and bathrooms and four unique living areas to gather with family and friends - two with wood burning fireplaces. There is also a large laundry room with views of the Umbrian hills. The other home, referred to as the Annex, is complete with everything you might need. This home has a large primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom, full kitchen with outdoor barbecue fireplace, and a large living room which can be used as a private office or additional bedroom. Together, this estate offers the opportunity for your best vacation ever! Put this location on your Bucket List. Thanks for allowing our friends to experience this taste of heaven on earth!”

Fantastic

Everything about our trip was great. The house is wonderful on the inside and also on the outside. The views from our windows and front patio were spectacular. The kitchen was perfect if you like to cook with lots of spices and oils available for use. The location was great as we enjoyed visiting so many of the small towns within an hour's drive of the villa, with some as close as 15-20 minuets. The owner is fantastic and was a wealth of information about things to do and places to eat. If you visit the villa do yourself a favor and take her advice on some of the tours and restaurants as you won't be sorry. Do not pass up the Pardi Linnen factory and lunch at their winery as it is a fantastic adventure. Thank you, Susan for all of your help and the use of your beautiful home.”

Amazing!!

Susan and her villa in Umbria is the stuff from story tales. The villa is the definition of perfection, clean, beautiful, well appointed, and in a rural and beautiful location. I highly recommend using the chef. I can't say enough good things about this villa. Bart”

The Perfect Italian Vacation!

This stunning Italian villa truly elevated our stay in Umbria! A much-needed getaway with four women, it far exceeded any expectations, and we were already in love with just the photos. Inside and out, the property is the essence of luxurious Italian charm and the views are nothing short of breathtaking. The concierge was on-hand to greet, gave a most informative tour, and left an impressive welcome basket of fresh food and a bottle of local wine. The owner thought of every convenience, from toiletries to cookware, and she is a wealth of knowledge on the area, as well. If you’re unfamiliar with Italy or Umbria, she can arrange a variety of tours and events. Geographically, it is within easy driving distance of several towns that were on our list to explore, which included Perugia, Orvieto, Civita de Bagnoregio, and several more. I hope to stay at Fondo Le Teglie again!”
