Casale Sant’Elena, is a gorgeous stone farmhouse offering spacious accommodation, with its own private (heated) swimming pool, terrace and landscaped gardens.
The house has been fully restored but retains many original features including handmade terracotta floors, a characteristic Umbrian arched kitchen, wooden beamed ceilings, large rooms with high ceilings and long views, terraces to catch the sun all day long, and seating both inside and outside.
Outside the house, the ca. 5000 m² garden with cypress trees and young olive trees extends from both the back and front of the house giving you room for walking and a place for outdoor games, offering 360 degree views of the Umbrian hills and the capital city of Perugia beyond.
Quietly situated Casale Sant’Elena is ideal for family holidays yet conveniently close to the many cultural, artistic and culinary delights of central Italy. The two small villages of Cerqueto (3km) and Spina (2.5km) offer some basic amenities (bank, small supermarket, bar, pharmacist)
