Villa Forconi

From the slender sentinels of Cypress trees lining the driveway to the robust ceiling beams supporting this charming abode, Villa Forconi embodies the quintessential Italian country villa, nestled in the enchanting Umbrian landscape like something out of a fairy tale. Enveloped by its own wooded haven, the villa offers a serene retreat, boasting expansive views across rolling hills and, on clear days, extending as far as the central Apennines. While Forconi's appearance is timeless, its ambiance is comfortably contemporary, tailored for effortless holiday living and perfect for two or three couples or a family. Enjoy tranquil summer days by the 12-meter-long pool, thoughtfully gated for extra peace of mind, with ample play space in the garden. A covered dining area awaits for savoring local delicacies, and a well-equipped kitchen-diner opens onto the garden. During a late-season escape, when grape-laden trailers traverse the 'strade bianche,' and local markets brim with an array of mushrooms, Forconi offers two open fireplaces to maintain a cozy atmosphere after sunset. Regardless of the time of your visit, this is an exceptional base for exploring Umbria and eastern Tuscany, with the picturesque Lake Trasimeno nearby (8km) and the remarkable restaurant, Lo Scoiattolo, boasting extraordinary lake views just a ten-minute drive away. Hilltop Cortona, walled Perugia, and the wine haven of Montepulciano are all easily reachable within 45 to 60 minutes by car.
