About this property

Sitting in 20 hectares, bordering Tuscany and Umbria, Casa Sorbello enjoys commanding views overlooking the beautiful green Niccone valley, with its two medieval castles. The house is about 1km from the main road down a quiet lane. Round the house there is a garden where you can sit and relax and watch the breeze ripple the silver leaves of the olive trees, or take a dip in the pool. Breakfast or dinner on the south-facing terrace, with magnificent views to the rolling Umbrian hills, is a special feature of the house.

Fabulous view on the valley

Comfortable and well maintained house overviewing the entire valley. Lovely terras with grill. Large swimming pool reachable via stairs. Quiet location, about 10/15 minutes to the nearest grocery store and butcher. You definitely need a car. We would love to come back in future. Nice places to visit within max 1 hr drive are Perugia (30 min), Cortona (45 min), Gubbio ( 1 hr). Lake Transimeno only 35 min away. Warm welcome by Philip and Madeline both speeking perfectly English.

Bon séjour, belle maison et vraiment belle vue!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la maison et surtout la vue spectaculaire sur la vallée et les montagnes. Vue exceptionnel !! C'était très propre, bien rangé, agréable et tout était disponible pour nos besoins. Le seul hic cette année fut d'avoir pendant la journée, beaucoup beaucoup de gros moustiques qui attaquaient ( a cause des grosses pluies en Toscane en mai et juin) qui nous ont empêché de profiter de la piscine. Impossible de s'assoir sur les chaises ni même de se baigner longtemps. Ce qui nous a déçu car nous voulions nous reposer. Nous avons plutôt visité davantage. Ceci n'a pas été causé par le proprio (qui a même offert du chasse moustique - mais inutile) mais ca a quand même eu un effet sur nos vacances. J'imagine que dans les années précédentes, ce n'était pas un problème car jamais vu de commentaires sur ceci.

Amazing views and tranquility

Ideal spot between Tuscany and Umbria to discover the region. Typical house with great swimming pool. Amazing views on the valley and the hills. It was very hot during our stay so as owner I would consider to install airconditioning, especially now summers are becoming hotter every year. Negative experience were the numerous mosquitos in the evening who prevented us from enjoying the beautiful stars in the sky. But in short, the house and surroundings met our expectations and we enjoyed our stay to the fullest. Thank you!

Ruhe und Entspannung mitten in der Natur.

Unser Urlaub in diesem schönen Haus fing im Dunkeln an. Daher fanden wir unsere Anreise, hoch in die Berge, erst einmal abenteuerlich. Im Hellen sah das schon wieder ganz anders aus, denn der Ausblick von der Terrasse ist einfach wunderschön. Die Lage des Hauses ist zwar abgelegen, aber wenn man Ruhe und Entspannung sucht, genau das Richtige! Auch wer ein wenig die Gegend fernab von den Touristenströmen erkunden möchte ist hier am richtigen Ort. Wir waren eine Woche in dem Haus, welches stimmig mit seinen Möbeln und Accessoires eingerichtet ist. Auch den großen tollen Pool, zur alleinigen Nutzung, haben wir sehr genossen. Es gibt einige sehr nette und leckere Restaurants und auch Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe, die uns von Madeleine empfohlen wurden. Madeleine war immer zur Stelle, wenn wir Fragen hatten, Hilfe benötigten oder auch den ein oder anderen Kritikpunkt hatten (z.B. der Geschirrspüler reinigte das Geschirr nicht richtig) Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und werden diesen Ausblick hoffentlich lange in Erinnerung behalten. Vielen Dank an den Gastgeber. Sabine
