About the home

Casa delle Rose is a beautifully restored 17th century farmhouse with a self-contained apartment on the ground floor in the heart of green Umbria. Set amidst olive groves and vineyards near the picturesque village of Canalicchio, Casa delle Rose offers spectactular views over the gentle Umbrian hills with sunsets and starry nights that have to be seen to be believed.
Traditional chestnut beams, handmade terracotta floors, fireplaces and white-washed walls all add to the glorious ambience and the virtually chlorine-free 5x10m pool offers cool respite from hot summer days.
Major cultural centres like Assisi, Perugia and Todi are half an hour away and Rome and Florence less than two hours. It takes a mere 10 minutes to reach the ceramics capital of Deruta. The nearest restaurant is within walking distance.The owners Michael & Sophie, who live on the top two floors of the house, speak English, Italian, German and some French and will be delighted to help you make your stay in Italy a truly memorable one.

The Umbria region

Holidaymakers seeking culture will delight in Casa delle Rose's unbeatable location in the centre of Umbria - "The green heart of Italy' - a region of stunning beauty dotted with medieval walled cities steeped in history.

The Todi / Canalicchio area

Umbria's capital and famous university town Perugia is 30 minutes away, splendid Todi only 20 and St Francis' Assisi about 40. There are many small towns worth a day trip: Montefalco, Bevagna, Spello or the gourmet mecca of Norcia, to name but a few. Between the months of May and October, Umbria is brimming with local festivals. Highlights are Spoleto's world-renowned celebration of the arts "Festival dei Due Mondi", Perugia's mouth-watering chocolate festival in honour of the "Bacio" and Gubbio's spectacular Candle Race.The quiet country lanes around the house are perfect for walking and mountain biking to work up an appetite for lunch at a colourful local trattoria and Alvaro, a friend of the owners who manages a large country estate nearby, can arrange for horse-riding, truffle-hunting (in season), Italian cookery classes, fishing, tennis and archery. There are two excellent restaurants within walking distance of the house.

Guestbook for Casa delle Rose

"What a beautiful place in an incredibly beautiful setting. A two-week holiday isn't nearly enough time to see all the beauty of Umbria. Michael & Sophie have been wonderful hosts, nothing is too much trouble. They made everything so enjoyable and easy for us. We really can't wait to come back. Bellissimo!"
Jane and Jonathan Richardson + family, East Sussex

"La Casa Delle Rose - Definitely a 'Gold Medal' if not "Best in Show'! After many years of villa holidays we have to say that you have made the best - the location, the quality of the house and all its stylish fittings, the pretty garden, the wonderful pool - and of course the warm and friendly welcome of the hosts. Thank you Michael & Sophie for giving us the opportunity of such a happy and relaxing week. Cordiali Saluti!"
David & Celia Weston, Kent + Janet & Lorenzo Masini, Lucca, Italy

"Over the years we have rented 18 properties in Italy, but Casa Delle Rose is by far the best. We feel that we are house guests in Michael & Sophie's lovely home. We have re-visited favourite places such as Assisi, Montefalco, Bevagna, Perugia, Spello and Todi, but have always looked forward to returning to Casa Delle Rose for evening drinks on the terrace. Thank you."
Vera & George Crawford, Watford

"Michael & Sophie, we couldn't possibly have enjoyed our stay here more. You've made us feel so welcome and we'll all have very fond memories of Umbria."
The Blincow Family, Reigate

"What a paradise, central to so many interesting places. We loved Assisi, Siena, Perugia and walks around Casa Delle Rose. Thank you Michael & Sophie, we'll have decades of wonderful memories."
Nancy & Barry Sherr, Connecticut, USA
