Casa
d'Orlando
A three
bedroom house that sleeps 6, Casa d'Orlando is just outside the
Umbrian town of Umbertide on the side of Monte Corona looking down
on the Tiber valley with an abbey (Badia di Monte Corona) at the
foot of the mountain and the Eremo (a monastery of Benedictines)
at the top.
There is
an asphalt road right to the house.
Casa d'Orlando
is the vacation home of an English couple.
It is very
comfortable with a splendid living room with easy chairs and sofa
and a dining area on one side. There is a large kitchen down a few
steps.
There are
2 bedrooms off the living room, a bedroom with double bed and one
with 2 singles and ensuite cloakroom (WC and basin). The main bathroom
has WC, basin and shower. There is a washing machine.
Up a short
flight of stairs is the third bedroom with 2 single beds. Prices
inclusive of bed linen and towels but you should bring your own
pool towels.
The garden
wraps round the house with rows of ancient vines, lawns and tremendous
views of the Tiber valley in one direction and Tuscany hills in
another. There are plenty of spots for al fresco meals in different
parts of the garden and front courtyard.
Casa d'Orlando
is joined to another house owned by an Italian family and used infrequently.
However, the other house is on a lower level and effectively hidden;
Casa d'Orlando is totally private.
There is
a small pool (8m by 4m).
