Overview
Nestled amidst Umbria's verdant countryside, just a short distance from the historic heart of Perugia lies Villa Ombretta. An escape from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life, the villa sits nestled amongst the undulating hillsides, adorned with ancient olive groves and vineyards. Villa Ombretta is a testament to timeless elegance and authentic hospitality within this idyllic setting.
Steeped in history, the origins of Villa Ombretta trace back to the ancient Etruscan era, evidenced by archaeological discoveries unearthed amidst the surrounding fields. The nucleus of the villa, comprising the manor house and a stately tower, dates to the 17th century, while documented records from 1820 provide a vivid account of its architectural layout and vast estate.
Meticulously restored with great respect for its storied past, Villa Ombretta blends traditional charm with modern comforts. A swimming pool now graces the former vegetable gardens, while the sharecroppers' dwellings have been transformed into elegant suites and communal spaces, offering a gorgeous retreat amidst the splendour of Umbria.
Entering the villa, guests are enveloped in an atmosphere of refined sophistication and understated grandeur. The main living spaces are full of charm and character, and all the modern conveniences you could imagine are equipped with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and living room. Each of the five meticulously appointed accommodations, from the sumptuous suites to the deluxe room, bears its own unique character and allure.
The first suite's contemporary chic meets rustic charm, with sleek furnishings against ancient stone walls and exposed wooden beams. A private terrace offers a serene spot to savour the panoramic vistas of the surrounding landscape. The second suite exudes timeless elegance with its exposed stonework and a private covered terrace, perfect for quiet contemplation. The third suite is the most spacious, with its rich hues and antique furnishings evoking a bygone era of opulence and refinement. The final suite offers a romantic haven spread across two levels, inviting guests to unwind in front of a crackling fireplace or luxuriate in the indulgent comforts of a sumptuous bathtub. Meanwhile, the Deluxe Room exudes sophistication with its soothing blue tones and captivating African sculptures.
Whether basking in the sun-dappled tranquillity of the outdoor spaces or unwinding in the elegant interiors, a stay at Villa Ombretta promises an unforgettable retreat amidst the timeless beauty of rural Umbria.

Wonderful
The structure, surrounded by greenery, is located a few kilometres from Perugia and is a good starting point for visiting the city and other places of interest. Our room consisted of an area with a lounge, TV, fireplace and desk; bedroom; a large bathroom. There were all the necessary comforts. It is possible to dine on site upon prior request. The menu is fixed and varies every evening ( with the possibility of also accommodating any requests from guests). The cuisine is excellent.

Excellent
Immersed in the woods and in silence about 15 minutes by car from the centre of Perugia. The owners and staff are extraordinary courteous and helpful and also offer the opportunity to dine at the property with always varied and quality proposals. Excellent welcome for the dog too.

Absolutely recommend
A perfectly restored old farmhouse, immersed in the quiet of the countryside not far from Perugia, gave us an enchanting days of vacation, during which we were able to alternate visits to the beautiful villages of Umbria with moments of relaxation in its well-kept garden. All seasoned with the special welcome of the owners and their feline friends. Absolutely recommended.
