Set on a gently sloping hill, this fine family villa is comprised of an imposing house and an adjacent annexe, both, with their stone walls and shuttered windows, looking typically Umbrian-rural. So the very smart interiors come as a surprise. Blending classic elegance with contemporary styling, the superbly spacious sitting room has pale wood floors, big white sofas and earth-toned fabrics beneath its raftered and brick-vaulted ceilings. The air-conditioned kitchen/diner, all brushed steel and glass, is a spectacular example of Italian design, made even more enjoyable with (pre-bookable) cook service. The bedrooms individually styled and with excellent en suite facilities, are ideally configured for two families, with two in the main house and three in the annexe. Outside, a vine-shaded dining terrace overlooks the gardens, and an eighteen metre, jet-current swimming pool is sunk into levelled lawns. And about a ten minute walk away, a floodlit tennis court is shared by guests of Le Crete and sister-villa La Casetta. A short drive from Orvieto, the villa is 2km from shops in Porano.

About the area

Near Orvieto, Todi & Northern Lazio

Average weather

In the south, an Umbria holiday comes dotted with honey-coloured stone farmsteads and sprinkled with olive groves—this region is not called ‘Italy’s green heart’ for nothing. The towns are a must-see for cathedral connoisseurs: there’s nothing restrained about the façade at Orvieto, yet one simple rose window is all that breaks up the classy simplicity at Todi. All of southern Umbria’s villas are within day-trip distance of Rome, too: the station at Orvieto has a fast link with the capital.

Having a barbecue in Italy is one of the best ways to cook your food but you may find that due to long drought periods in high season barbecuing may be restricted in some areas. You will be informed if this happens by your house staff or local representative.
