Beautiful house - so comfortable
Fantastic holiday , pool was wonderful , every need catered for . The house is wonderful and the garden and loggia are fantastic . We also really enjoyed the games room . The road is quite challenging and not for the faint hearted . The location is wonderful but being rural takes a little time to get to anywhere .

Wonderful farmhouse in beautiful part of Italy
We have just returned from a week in Vasigno. 2 families, 6 young people from 16 -24. So many things to do around the house, meant we barely ventured fourth. House, pool, garden, views and the many eating areas just lovely. Only comment being, remember to take enough bug spray as they were there in force. But even so 10/10 holiday. The Theron family

Absolutely fantastic!!!
I rented Vasciano for two weeks in 2018 to celebrate my 50th birthday with friends and family. The house and grounds overexceeded my expectations even after seeing the beautiful pictures on the website. Waking up to the sunrise over the Umbrian hills every morning was a particular treat. The house is beautifully decorated, outfitted with everything you might possibly need, and the gardens are stunning. We even picked fresh rosemary and figs to supplement our meals. Piers and Carol were very helpful helping us plan before we got there, including recommending a local cooking school which was one of the highlights of our trip (Agriturismo Calagrana). They also helped us order food and a pre-cooked meal for our first night there, which was a godsend after the long flight from the US (the lasagna was delicious). I would highly recommend this house to anyone looking to truly enjoy the Italian countryside.

Quintessential villa!
I’m reticent to write about how fabulous is Villa Vasciano but I wish we were still there. The layout and accommodations are way better than what you see in the literature provided online. We recently had our wedding there (the reception) and couldn’t have picked a better site. The view is spectacular; the grounds exquisite; and the home completely comfortable. The location is very convenient to many historical towns. You can easily drive to the local grocery in Umbertide and many quaint and quality restaurants are within minutes. The owners are very accommodating and communicative and we truly appreciate everything! Piers and Carol....we shall return!!!

idyllic house, beautifully restored
the house itself is full of character and beautifully furnished, with lovely rugs and interesting old pieces. There is even a piano which has a nice tone and is in tune! The kitchen is terrific - we found all the gadgets we wanted and there is plenty of fridge space. The house is on lots of levels and has little staircases and passage ways - full of interest and surprise, with a wonderful wide landing leading into a huge high-ceilinged, upstairs sitting room. The outside eating places are many and varied - everywhere pots of tumbling flowers and walls hanging with blossoming climbers. The garden flows between different levels and has great views, lots of comfy seating in shade and sun and a tinkling water trough - very soothing! So many great little towns to visit nearby.

Perfect Umbrian holiday villa for all types of holiday person : active or lounging
The house, gardens and pool exceeded our expectations in loveliness. The house and gardens were blisssfully peaceful and lounging on the terraces was gorgeous. It was also raucously good fun messing around in the lovely big pool. Great area for walks, nature, food and sightseeing. The house is characterful and very well equipped for all sorts of entertainment. The house instructions were very easy to follow and help was always on hand.

Un vero paradiso
Abbiamo passato una settimana a Vasciano nel mese di agosto in 2 famiglie, con 5 bambini tra 7 e 13 anni. E' stata una settimana magnifica, la casa è grande, perfettamente equipaggiata e organizzata. E' una casa da vivere, piena di possibilità e arredata con cura, con libri, pianoforte, tavoli esterni e interni, aree per leggere e giocare, stanza del biliardo e ping pong, fiori e piante ovunque. Si respira felicità in ogni spazio della casa. I proprietari sono stati gentilissimi e hanno risposto con attenzione e disponibilità in ogni momento. Torneremo sicuramente!

Hidden gem in the Umbrian hills
Beautiful villa with a gorgeous view, away from the main road and very quiet and with an amazing view over the valley and hills. The villa was spotless clean with a big kitchen with all the required equipment. We have been traveling to quite some bigger family holiday homes, but this is the first one with 5 proper bedrooms. Outside there are many options to sit, we liked a lot the roofed terras in front of the main entrance in the shade is nice and the view amazing The pool area was also very nice, we are really considering to stay here again.
