About the home
Villa Costanza is a 550-square-meter (about 5,920 square feet) house which
sleeps 23 people. It is located on a hill, and it features a garden, a private
swimming-pool and a wide view of a valley. The house is equipped with
air-conditioning in the bedrooms, winter heating, and parking space.
It is 6 km (about 3.7 miles) away from Narni, 15 km (about 9.3 miles) from
Terni, 40 km (about 25 miles) from Spoleto, 50 km (about 31 miles) from Assisi,
70 km (about 43.5 miles) from Perugia and Orvieto, and about 100 km (about 62
miles) away from the center of Rome.
The villa is subdivided into six suites, each with a double bed on a mezzanine,
a living-room with a divan bed, a kitchenette, and a bathroom with shower. There
is also another large living-room and a spacious shared kitchen.
The place
Villa Costanza is situated amidst the green of the hills in the area of Umbria
which is closer to Rome.
At your arrival, you will see a large house in grey stone nestled almost at the
top of a gracious hill surrounded by lawns and gardens distributed on different
levels of land. As you look around, you won't see any other house, but only an
amphitheater of hills covered in intense-green woods: it will take you only a
second to realize why Umbria is called the “Cuore Verde dell'Italia” (the Green
Heart of Italy)!
The air is clean and fresh, and there is no noise: even before you enter the
house, you will notice that you have chosen the perfect place to spend a
relaxing vacation.
The garden and the swimming pool
The whole villa is surrounded by a garden and the land of the property.
From the garden and the swimming-pool of Villa Costanza, you will have an
enthralling view of the hills and the valleys which spread out and meet the blue
of the horizon. The garden and the swimming-pool blend well within such natural
set: the swimming-pool is located on a natural terrace and features sun-drenched
areas around. Near the swimming-pool, ideal to relax under the shade, is a
pergola, or if you prefer, the shady crown of a large tree.
The villa has several patio doors which leads you from the house to the garden:
in front of each door you will find a furnished patio which invites you to relax
outdoors: little wrought-iron tables and chairs, comfortable cushions, flowered
bushes, vases of red cranesbill, the green of the lawns which stretch out to
infinity ... the perfect place to stop for while and enjoy a glass of wine or a
good book.
The house
The villa dates back to the Nineteenth century, and its façade is just like it
used to be two centuries ago: restoration was run respecting the original aspect
and fascination of the old structure.
The living-room
Villa Costanza is two-storey high: the ground floor has a large living-room, a
bathroom, and a spacious kitchen. The living-room is elegant, cozy, and
furnished with beautiful furniture and old paintings. It is a very spacious room
with wooden floor and wooden-joist ceiling. It's also divided into two parts by
a large masonry arch. In one part you will find an old fireplace sculpted in
grey stone and surrounded by armchairs; in the opposite part, next to the
kitchen, you will have a dining-table.
From the living-room, you can reach the garden and the swimming-pool.
In case you feel like throwing a dinner party or welcoming other guests, all you
have to do is ask: in the living-room of Villa Costanza, you can organize
dinners and parties for even 100 people.
The kitchen
Three steps separate the living-room from the spacious kitchen. Here you will
find a four-burner stove, two electric ovens, a large fridge, a freezer, a
dishwasher, and a table with chairs. The villa also has a laundry room equipped
with a washing machine and a dryer; this room is apart.
From the kitchen you can reach the garden and a gracious portico equipped with a
barbecue and an outdoor dining-table. It will be easy and fun to have dinner
outside during summer, maybe with candle lights under a starry sky!
Bedrooms
A staircase consisting of twelve steps will lead you from the living-room to the
upper floor.
Along a corridor adorned with tapestry, you will find five mini-rooms out of the
6 which are part of the villa.
One particular characteristic of Villa Costanza is the following: besides the
large shared areas of living-room, the interior of the villa features not simple
bedrooms, but mini independent rooms. Each bedroom has its own small living-room
with a kitchenette, table with chairs, armchairs and couch or divan bed, a
bathroom with shower, and a double bed on a mezzanine.
If your party consists of several families, you will have the possibility of
distributing each family in a mini-apartment.
What you have is a great opportunity, not easy to be found, to enjoy what Villa
Costanza has to offer: large shared spaces to happily spend your vacation along
a big party of people, not mentioning the “private” spaces to each family so
that everyone gets to experience privacy and autonomy as well.
You will notice that each mini-apartment has been carefully decorated in the
warm and cozy classical style typical of Umbria, with wooden floor and
wooden-joist ceiling. Four of the mini-apartments have a double bed and a double
divan bed. The fifth one features a double bed, a single bed, and a double divan
bed.
The bedrooms have windows overlooking the valley and the hills.
The loft
The sixth mini-apartment takes a small and romantic loft consisting of a little
house in stone located in a place which is apart from the house, actually
attached to the back side of the villa. The loft features its own entrance from
the garden once you have gone through a small and gracious patio adorned by
bushes of lavender. On the patio you will find a table with chairs in
wrought-iron. In the interior, you will find a living-room with a small
kitchenette, a bathroom with shower, and a double bedroom. It is the perfect set
for a couple in love!

The Umbria region
Umbria, located in the middle of the Italian peninsula, above Latium (the region of Rome) and next to Tuscany, is the only region of Italy that does not have access to the Mediterranean. Despite this, it possesses, as you might have already heard, a "vocation for beauty".
The region is well known for its picturesque settings, the lightness and purity of the air, the presence of thermal and mineral water springs, the lakes and rivers and the spectacular waterfalls. Here life flows slowly, and people like to cling to their ancient traditions, keeping them alive through history.
Umbria is a region of mountains, hills and valleys. It is crossed by the Appenines mountains, which often slope down into gentle hills and allow for charming valleys crossed by rivers, such as the Tiber valley (the Tiber will eventually reach Rome) and the Nera valley, through which the Chiascio and Topino Rivera flow. In such a varied landscape expect to find the largest waterfall of Italy, Le Marmore, as well as lakes of volcanic origin, such as Lake Trasimeno and Lake Piediluco.
Umbria is also a region of small medieval town and villages, artistic gems which have maintained their original aspect and are at a short distance from one another. They all preserve noteworthy works of art, in the churches, in the art galleries and in the characteristic squares. The mystery of the Etruscan stones, the boldness of the Roman works, the pureness of the Christian architecture and the mildness of the Renaissance paintings are all to be found within the borders of Umbria. Those who have browsed a tourist guide will recognize the names of Perugia, Gubbio, Spoleto, Todi, Orvieto, Assisi, Spello, Trevi, Cascia, Norcia -- a few of the most notable towns of Umbria.
And when it is time to sit at the table, in Umbria you will find a solid culinary tradition, simple yet tasty, based on what the land has to offer: olive oil, hog, lamb, durham wheat pasta of the best quality and the colombaccio, the wood-pigeon that Umbrians love. The gourmets will also be able to feast on the black truffle of the Norcia region, exported from Umbria all over the world.

Villa Costanza is great for your soul since it is an endless source of peace and relaxation for your body.
It is also a great starting point in case you want to explore all the richness of art, history, culture, and humanity which so much attract visitors to Umbria. Really close, only 2 km (about 1.2 miles) away, you will find Narni, a town founded in 600 B.C.
