Villa Chiara was a beautiful stone country house, now fully restored, located on the hills between Tuscany and Umbria in the whereabouts of an amazing, tiny old hamlet. All the old features of the house have been kept in the restoration works such as the stone works, the arches and the wooden beamed ceilings. It is about 600 metres asl and is surrounded by woods of oak trees and chestnut trees. A peaceful spot, off the beaten tourist track. However, both Cortona with its imposing Etruscan walls and Perugia and Assisi are within a range of 30/50 km. Lake Trasimeno is worth a visit, renting a boat and eating at one of the many small restaurants found there. Other small Tuscan towns are also easily reached and Arezzo is worth a day trip too. There is a golf course for golf enthusiasts only half an hour away. Outside, the large garden full of trees includes, slightly below the villa, the swimming pool (12x6, 1.50m deep)(01/06-30/09) with Jacuzzi area, outdoor shower, garden furniture, table for outdoor meals, barbeque. You can have a maid upon request. The accommodation has central heating and wi-fi Internet connection. Car park on the property.
