To the east of Tuscany, the calf muscle of Italy's
boot-covered leg, lies the province of Umbria. Little-known and often
overlooked, Umbria has a kind of mystery about it, starting with its name
which derives from the Latin word for shadow. For all its obscurity, staying
at an Umbria villa will put you in the heart of some of the country's most
fascinating and sacred territory. From your Umbria villa rental you can
visit Italy's biggest lake, highest falls, and the source of the country's
mighty Tiber River, which begins as a small mountain ravine before
culminating into that famous gushing waterway. Your Umbria villa may be
tucked within thick wooded groves of elm and chestnut, blanketing the river
valleys that roll through here untamed across a swatch of national parkland.
For culture buffs staying at an Umbria villa, Umbria has the hallowed land
of Assisi - birthplace of the country's patron saint St. Francis - the
intrigue of Romanesque Spoleto and the deepest Etruscan roots of anywhere in
Italy. The nearest crumbling ruins or art galleries are rarely more than a
short drive away from Umbria villa rentals. Surrounding your Umbria villa,
traditions will be centuries old and landscapes even older, seemingly
untouched since even its more 'modern' Medieval towns began sprouting up on
the green countryside. Umbria villa rentals embody
the essence of this storied place, rich in all senses of the word and as
warm as the Italian sun. From small and intimate to expansive and lavish,
guests of Umbria villa rentals will delight in the otherworldly experience
of having a country home all their own. Take a dip in your private pool,
stroll your Umbria villa rental's gardens, and maybe say a small prayer to
St. Francis that this stunning slice of Italy has yet to be discovered by
the masses. |
