Tenuta di Boschi, Montegabbione, Umbria, Italy

Tenuta di Boschi is a large manor house, perfect for weddings, hen or stag parties, large families, naturists, and yoga retreats - totally private.

The living area of the manor house measures 900+ sq m. In total, there are 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, a large salon with an open fireplace opening onto the vast terrace, dining room, kitchen, TV room, library and reading room.

The garden close to the house is full of olive trees, cypress trees, lavender, wild fennel, bay, and rosemary - a butterfly and bee paradise. Fire flies are abundant in summer. There is a formal garden to the rear of the house, and streams with cascades.

The 14 x 7 metre outside pool overlooks the valley, with a changing room with shower and WC. There is also a shower at the pool side.

The property extends to 220 acres. The property produces it's own olive oil, and we offer you the chance to use it during your stay - the best virgin olive oil in Umbria. There are deer, wild boar, hare and porcupine on the estate, as well as black truffles and porcini mushrooms. Apples, apricots, figs (black and green), cherries (black and red), peaches, almonds and walnuts grow in the grounds.

A washing and ironing service may be available, payable direct to the house keeper who comes in once a week to do a basic clean (included) in the living areas. Food shopping is available at a further small charge

Restaurants are within 10 minutes.

St. Francis established a monastery with a Dali-esque theatre complex in the grounds; tours by appointment can be organised.

Horse riding is available in Montegabbione. Local wine tours can be booked in advance. Assisi is an hour away and Lake Trassimeno is 40 minutes with great fish restaurants, swimming, boating and other water sports.

Local amenities/restaurants are 15 minutes away

We spent 2 weeks at Tenuta di Boschi and had a lovely holiday. The large pool was the most popular place for the children and the peaceful private estate allowed us to relax away from it all. We got exactly what the website said. Thank you for letting us stay in your home and for all the useful information you gave us. Sandra, Robert and extended family. July 2019
