The house lies above the village of Pigge (midway between Trevi and Spoleto) and offers stunning views across the valley to Montefalco beyond. Secluded nooks and shady corners abound and below the large terrace, from where sunsets can be watched over a glass of red wine, the new swimming pool (12 by 4 meters) waits among the olive trees, romantically approached by a curving flight of stone steps. All the rooms in the main part of the house and the guest room are light and spacious and have been tastefully furnished and decorated. Beyond the house there are paths and tracks leading in every direction and the surrounding woods and groves are full of wildlife. Excellent restaurants serving local food, supermarkets and small shops all lie within 15 minutes drive in the still unspoiled towns of Trevi and Spoleto (which Shelley called the 'most romantic town in Italy').
