The Umbria region


Umbria is often described - rightly - as the green heart of Italy. With its hot summers and gentle autumns, the area is rich in scenic beauty, steeped in history, and alive with culture and events.
In Umbria, you can recharge your batteries in utter tranquility, and yet be just moments away from the vibrant friendliness and energy of piazza Italy. Round every bend in the road, round every corner of a street, Umbria brings to life the Italy you've only seen before in paintings.
Music, food, art, history, nature: Umbria puts them all within easy reach.
The Citta Di Castello / Monte Santa Maria Tiberina area
Citta di Castello is medieval walled city, and a thriving modern community where, if you want a stay-at-home holiday - you'll find everything to sustain your retreat. If you want to explore the area, Gubbio, Assisi, Perugia are all within easy reach. Arezzo in Tuscany is an easy drive, and Florence can be reached in a couple of hours.
Most visitors to Casale Sole find plenty to do and see, close to hand: long lunches on a terrace looking down on creation from the crow's nest community of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina. Flea-market shopping in Sansepolcro, the birthplace of Piero della Francesca - and still home to many of his works.
Performances in the world's smallest opera house in Umbertide. Browsing antiques and majollica in Cortona. If, that is, they can tear themselves away from the pool...
