ITALY Todi Umbria Gorgeous Historic House Italy

Prices from £500 per Week
The apartment was recently carefully renovated by its owners using traditional skills and local craftsman. It is formed from the bases of three mediaeval towers whose upper stories were demolished in the Renaissance by order of the Pope. It has one Roman room, one room dating from the eleven hundreds, a thirteenth century dining hall and a series of fifteenth century rooms. It is a beautiful three bedroom, three bathroom apartment, sleeping 5/6, within the Roman walls of the mediaeval city of Todi. It has a lovely private courtyard with Travertine marble floor that leads on to a charming walled garden, full of English roses, wisteria and lavender. The front door opens on the vaulted 13th century dining hall that leads through to the private courtyard. The kitchen is fully equipped with , gas hob, large fan-assisted electric oven, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, marble preparation surfaces, Magimix and all the pans and crockery you could wish for. There is a laundry room equipped with a washing machine and a dryer. The living room is furnished with eighteenth and early nineteenth century antiques. It has an open fire. Each of three bedrooms has a soporific mattress made by local artisans in Todi. One Bedroom has a replica of Napoleon's bed in mahogany and gold leaf and an ensuite bathroom with a roll-top bath imported from England. The second bedroom has a large four-poster bed in Anglo-Dutch seventeenth-century style. There is an ensuite shower room. The third bedroom is the base of a twelfth century tower, with a round-headed stone arch of the period over the door to the garden. The room looks out over both the private courtyard and the garden. The bed is a 19th century French lit-en-bateau with a new, very comfortable hand-made mattress. The house is within the Roman walls of Todi, five minutes walk from the famous and beautiful central square, said to be 'the most beautiful square in Italy' and so often used in films. Todi is one of the few, 'quiet cities with slow food' (food cooked individually after you order from fresh local ingredients). The town is a founder member of the Slow Food Movement. Excellent and relatively inexpensive restaurants, acknowledged as some of the best in the region are within five minutes walk from the front door, so you can drink wine with dinner and walk the short distance home. From the front windows of the house you look out over the ancient walls to glorious views over the Naia Valley.
