The Umbria region
Known as the green heart of Italy, the region of Umbria offers a range of memorable experiences. Perfectly preserved towns perched on hill tops contain many medieval and renaissance art treasures.
The local cuisine makes use of flavoursome products such as olive oils, wild mushrooms and truffles.
Lake Trasimeno / Tavernelle di Panicale area
Lake Trasimeno is the 4th largest lake in Italy covering an area of 126 square km. The prominent fortified market town of Castiglione del lago is one of the main departing points for the many ferries that visit the islands situated on the lake. South of the lake the towns of Panicale and Piegaro represent small examples of medieval hill top towns, containing twisting narrow alleyways, bars, restaurants and weekly markets.
Between Piegaro and Panicale there is a water park available during the summer season.
Most amenities are available at Tavernelle (10min drive), to include garages, bars, banks, chemist, supermarkets, general shops and weekly market (Monday mornings).
Restaurants are found in all nearby towns - details and recommendations are found in the guest file at the apartment.
An example of the many numerous local summer festivals in the area are hosted by the towns of:- Citta delle Pieve (Palio dei terzieri- August), Panicale (Festa dell'Uva - September), Lake Trasimeno, all main lakeside towns including Piegaro, (Trasimeno Blues- July), Perugia (Umbria Jazz - July).
Being situated so close to the border of Tuscany, local explorations can include Montepulciano (wines) Pienza (fantastic cheeses) San Casciano dei Bagni (thermal baths and springs) Cortona (shops and great views of Umbria and Tuscany)

Guestbook for La Fiorella
'If you are looking for some luxury accommodation, high in the beautiful hills of Umbria, look no further. Close to such wonderful places as Panicale, Perugia, Assisi and Todi, Graham and Johanne's is a perfect base from which to explore.
The accommodation itself is on the 1st floor, which only adds to the amazing views and is extremely comfortable with a great kitchen and dining area, and the comfiest bed in Italy..
Enjoy your stay but don't book when we want to go......
Richard, Lisa and Mimi Harman - Devon"
"Delightful self contained apartment in Umbria with lovely views of the Panicale area. 3 well fitted out bedrooms including a spacious kitchen / dining / living room area – all tastefully decorated and in keeping with the area. Access to an excellent pool, again with great views. Hosts are most welcoming."
The Lucas-Gidley Family - Devon
The views are breathtaking with perfect seclusion - the pool fantastic and the apartment spacious and well furnished. The local area has lots to explore but just sitting in the square in Panicale sipping a coffee is bliss itself. I would highly recommend La Fiorella for a fantastic holiday. Tim & Pat George Barnstaple
Beautifully appointed apartment with breathtaking views. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week and managed to pack a lot in - day trip to Rome, Siena and Cortona, plus much more. The festival in Citta delle Pieve was very special, as was the jazz concent in the square in Pienza.
A great holiday, made all the more enjoyable by Graham and Johanne's warm hospitality. The photo's on the web site really don't do it justice Donna, John, Hannah & Luke Cresswell. Kettering, Northamptonshire. 2009
