LA VENTOSA Located on the border between the regions of Umbria and Toscany, 12 km from Chiusi, the 10-acre estate of “La Ventosa” is nestled among the hills overlooking Lake Trasimeno. The property includes the original farmhouse, used exclusively by the owners on weekends, and a separate guest cottage which is available for short-term rentals. Perfect for travelers seeking peaceful, relaxing and undisturbed vacations in the Tuscan countryside, the guest cottage can sleep up to four people in simple but comfortable accommodations and is composed of a master bedroom, a second bedroom with bunk beds, a cozy living room with fireplace, a kitchenette (complete with refrigerator, microwave oven and washing machine), a full bathroom with shower, veranda, garden and swimming pool. The cottage is completely surrounded by the natural setting of this region and enjoys a splendid overall view of the area. Guests are free to explore all 10 acres of the estate’s grounds where one might encounter squirrels, porcupines, the occasional fox or be accompanied only by the sounds of the birds and the crickets. For those who love the arts; Perugia, Assisi, Arezzo, Cortona and Trasimeno are in the immediate vicinity while Rome and Florence can be reached in just an hour’s train ride from the station at Chiusi. In addition, two favorite hot springs, S. Casciano dei Bagni and Chianciano, are located just 35 km from the estate. Pacinao, the nearest village (5 km away), with it’s medieval atmosphere and surrounding vineyards, earned the title of “Ideal Italian Village” from a survey conducted recently by an International magazine. Between October and December, mushroom lovers
will enjoy the rich offerings of the nearby forests
and the olives of this area are used to produce an exclusive, world renowned
“extravergine” olive oil whose harvest is celebrated every
year during the first week of December.
