Between Val d’Orcia, Trasimeno and Subasio
Our homes inhabit the gentle border between Tuscany and Umbria: World Heritage hills, stone villages, lakes that catch fire at sunset. From every house you set out along white roads to wineries, thermal springs and art cities — and you are always glad to come back.
Cetona
Cetona climbs in concentric circles around its fortress, at the foot of the wooded mountain that shares its name. Its grand piazza, stone-paved lanes and wisteria-draped walls make it one of southern Tuscany’s most beloved villages — and a perfect base for the Val d’Orcia, the thermal springs of San Casciano dei Bagni, and the art cities of Siena and Orvieto.

Città della Pieve
Birthplace of the painter Perugino, Città della Pieve surprises visitors with its red-brick alleys — one of them among the narrowest in Italy — and with the saffron grown for centuries in the surrounding fields. From its belvedere the view sweeps across the Valdichiana to Lake Trasimeno: an elegant, authentic corner of Umbria, one step from Tuscany.

Spello
Built from the pink stone of Mount Subasio, Spello is a village that smells of flowers: every alley bursts with geraniums, and each June the Infiorate festival turns its streets into carpets of petals. With Roman mosaics, Sagrantino wine cellars and Assisi close by, it offers Umbria at its brightest and most welcoming.
