Villa Cleante has been recently restored with a careful eye on modern features that blend with the original character of this farmhouse. It is located in one of the most exclusive private country estates in Italy with thousands of hectares of immaculate woods, valleys, lakes and rivers. The estate is complete with an 18 hole championship golf course, club and restaurant that serves delicious local food and wine.

The property consists of a main villa with 8 bedrooms and a guest cottage with a further bedroom. The bedroom layout has been carefully designed with families in mind as the main villa is divided into suites of room. So on the upper floor, Bedrooms 1, 2 and 3 interconnect; Bedrooms 4, 5 & 6 interconnect and then on the lower floor, Bedrooms 7 & 8 interconnect. Excellent planning! All bedrooms enjoy air conditioning and WiFi internet and 7 have en-suite bathrooms.

The comfortably simple living areas on the ground floor open out onto the lawns and terraces, ideal for al fresco meals and the vast gardens make for endless play areas for the younger generation! A large, heated swimming pool (15m x 7m) and several sun loungers plus the separate jacuzzi for up to 8 persons makes Villa Cleante ideal for sunbathing and relaxing.

The pleasure of silence, the enchanting surroundings, the proximity to a number of small villages - one, very very small, is reachable on foot although we would recommend to use the car - with restaurants, bread shops, organic markets, artisans shops, hidden little churches and monuments, not to mention proximity to Perugia and Cortona are all part of the best package and experience a villa traveler would want.

Cleante has the advantage of being situated in the very center of Umbria, an area where the simple pleasures of country living embrace art, history and architecture offering wonderful food and wine in nearby towns throughout the two adjoining regions of Lazio and Tuscany. Florence and Rome are within two hours' drive of the estate and Siena, Arezzo, Assisi, Gubbio, Todi and Orvieto are all close-by. The region's capital city Perugia is just twenty minutes away and offers a wealth of cultural activities that include opera and the famous Umbria Jazz and Eurochocolate festivals. Other spectacular hilltop towns include Cortona and Preggio, the latter with its annual classical music festival, as well as the annual Montone Film Festival which attracts an international audience.

The Umbria region is exquisite, mystical, peaceful, and best of all, unspoiled. Centrally located, this one landlocked region of Italy is often referred to as the green heart of the country and it is an especially verdant region of mountains, rolling green hills, forests, tumbling rivers, lush farming land, hiking trails, vineyards, and awe inspiring and time transporting views. Out of Umbria come extraordinary and highly regarded wines, both red and white, olive oils, whole grains, exquisite truffles, first rate prosciutto, sausages and other pork products, honeys, cheeses - and much more.
