Casa Porcospino is a holiday apartment with private garden, part of an old restored farmhouse in a tranquil position in nature. The holiday rental apartment has terracotta floors and thick wooden beams. The old farmhouse in the Upper Tiber Valley area, sits on 650 meters altitude, a guarantee for the best views over nature. This is the area where Umbria meets Tuscany and the Marche.

This is the ideal rental for nature lovers and anybody looking for a quiet time, away from the fast pace, constant pressure and unnatural environment. The apartment is, with one bedroom, ideal for a couple, but there is a very good sofa bed so the apartment sleeps 4 people in total.

The old farmhouse is surrounded by 30.000 m2 of land with a small vineyard, olives and many fruit trees (that long to be picked!). No need to say that you can see far from here and what you see can keep you dreaming the whole of your holiday (and beyond).

Back to the description of Casa Porcospino

 

From the owners: the road has been repaired in april 2010. The steep part that was causing problems is now covered with concrete, making it easy for every car to drive up to the house.

 

From 2009:

We hade a lovely time at Casa Porcospino. Very quiet and peaceful. We did not have any problem with the steep hill up and down. We warmly recommend the place to whom is looking for nature, peace and quiet. Maybe a tip: a copy of the "pagine gialle" in the house, could be handy. But I suspect many guests will have thier own ideas and suggestions.

Thank you for all the information we received beforehand. 

Maybe until next time, best regards, Harriët

 

Casa Porcospino:

Positive:

-very quiet location

we arrived at about 20.00. Some spaghetti was in the house, luckily! If not the first night, we would have been without food.

-very comfortabel, anything you need is present (kitchen material, spices, towels, cd's, etc.)

-we appreciated the bottle of wine upon arrival! 

-Good pool

-Sites in the area: Città di Castello, Sansepolcro, Urbino en Gubbio

Negative:

-it is a pity there is no bakery or supermarket in the direct area. 

-The very steep non asphalted lane that takes you up to the house. Any future guest should be aware of this!

-It is also much better to arrive before dark and take some food with you for the first evening and morning!

Best regards, Ann

 

Dear Saskia and Willemijn,

We have been at home for about two weeks now and look back on a wonderful week in Umbria. It was extremely hot, but that was also part of the fun.

Very positive was the little house we stayed in, the Casa Porcospino has everything you need and was furnitured with taste.

It's location is very beautiful and quiet with wonderful views around. We visited a lot of the towns in the area. There is a lot of privacy and you hardly notice the other giests on the premises, which we enjoyed very much.

Luckily Lieke and Sander (son of the owners) were also there to answer some of our questions and - here is the negative comment! - to pick us up downhill with the jeep. It was really impossible to climb the hill with our car which is not a not a 4 wheel drive. I think it should have been comunicated more explicity that the road is too steep to get up with a normal car. The fact that we could rent the jeep was a plus, but also necessary. I also mentioned in the guest book, that some giant wasps were nestling somehwer in the apartment, but we couldn't find out where. This is probably impossible to avoid in themiddele of nature!

Kind regards, Sabien and Guus

 

Hello Saskia and Willemijn,

I rented the Casa Porcospino for one week in August. 

The small house is just fine, well taken acre of, lovely pool and wonderful views.

The negative aspect were the large wasps we discovered upon arrival. Jim, the caretakerm came down and discovered a nest in the chimney and also at two ther spots on the premises.

This caused us a very unpleasant feeling, especially because I am afraid of wasps. They were continuously present around the house. Maybe this could have been checked beforehand, in winter or spring? I am not sure whether this would have made a difference, but we read similar comments on the guest book.

With regards, Zamira

 

 

From before 2009:

Note from Villa in Umbria:
The road has been repaired in April 2008 and from then on it has been possible to reach the house by normal car in any weather conditions. A lot of the following comments are not relevant regarding the road.

 

For the second time in Porcospino, but it was the same success as the first time!! Delightfully quiet, made wonderful trips and ate well again. Thanks for the hospitality!

Hans and Xenia

 

Live is good here and Porcospino is a charming cottage. Glorious weather, luminous skies alternate with heavy weather in November! Made many walks, plenty of new discoveries, lots of food! Wild boars growled in the shrubs, deer crossed our paths!

Hella and Hein

 

Our arrival on December 23 was heartwarming. The outdoor lighting was on as was the heating. Wine on the table! No white Christmas, but almost two weeks of radiant crisp hiking weather. The Monte Nerone was awesome, picnic in the snow! We love to keep coming back here!!

Words like bonded with nature -serenity- the art of savouring the italian way come to me. We are grateful for being able to stay here! Harmony is something to be treasured. We were allowed to have a taste of the art of living again.

Frank and Monique

 

It was a wonderful sojourn!!!!!

Our thanks for taking so well care of us.

Brigitte and Louis

 

This house has all the amenities, everything is right. Shame we couldn't stay any longer. We visited the tourist attractions like Florence (Firenze!) Arezzo, Assisi, Perugia. These busy towns are all easily reached by car and yet the cottage is so well situated, quiet with splendid views from the garden. What a tranquility!

Frans

 

Two weeks Porcospino: delightful weeks in a magic place! Making use of the Jeep is a solution for the difficult to negotiate road: this is the way to go!! All in all a great stay!

Kees and Tineke

 

A splendid week on this hot, lonely on the edge of "touristic Italy". Here one really relishes silence! This hilltop will for always be in our memories!

We enjoyed everything!

Martijn, Elsemijn and Line

 

Fantastic nice cottage where nothing is wanted for. Also the pool is wonderful for a cooling dip during hot periods.

The road to the house is steep indeed, but the Jeep Cherokee one is able to use (what a luxury!) takes care of thet problem!

The surroundings are splendid and it is an oasis of silence!

You are allowed to use anything here wich makes one feel truly wellcome!

Joost and Karin

 

Calmed down completely. The pool and the house are great. With a special driveway, true, but by using the Jeep everything will come right or: clunk the food down and ignore the sound of flying gravel. We do like to be well nourished and followed all the restaurant tips!!!!! Great!!!! It was wonderful to be here!

Jacob and Kathleen

 

Great swimming, hiking, saw a family of wild boars, picked blackberries etc. Everything here is top! We even managed very well to come up with our rented Panda. We will certainly return!

Jan and Leni

 

We are enthusiastic about what we see and during our stay in Casa Porcospino grew even more enthusiastic! A cozy laid out space, fitted with everything that should be there!

Attention has been paid to all details.....candles, waxine lights, sharp knives, torch and for the first time in a rented appartment a settee-bed that really works as one: comfortable.

Bravo! The panorama is to be savoured. It is touching and stunning like an amphitheater. The path to the top requires some driving skills. The many birds, the hiking, the surroundings, the lovely cities.....

All in all: a beautiful and unique experience. We will certainly return to this magnificent place.

Wil and Ela

 

We really enjoyed this heaven-on-earth-spot  Casa Porcospino. The apartment has a very nice atmosphere and looks very good, with marvellous views from the terrace. You can "hear" the silence after a busy day.  We have visited Assisi, Rome, Florence, Siena etc.

Ian and Raquel

 

This place beams with silence: breathtaking panoramas, beautiful sunsets! Too bad the weather wasn't all that fantastic last two days, Although sitting inside such an appartment certainly isn't punishment!

John and Marijke

 

A fantastic house, though the road that leads to it is difficult to negotiate. It has been furnished to our taste. Everything is right: feels like coming home! How we enjoyed ourselves: impressive nature. Made wonderful trips. Amazing!

Jos and Tineke

 

One feels like a king in Porcospino. Everything you ever wanted! The road that leads to it looks like some part of the Camel Trophy. Once one gets used to it: a wonderful house wich within no time felt like our 'home away from home' Super!

Roy and Mandy

 

We really had a nice time. The house was super and so cozy! We truly were able to feel a sense of hospitality here because of all those little extra's.

We relished it!

If we are ever to buy a four wheel drive we''l make sure to come back!

Erik, Jeanette, Nick en René

 

Awesome place! We never go to the same plce twice but we might return to this one because it is something really special!!

An

 

The house is perfect. Cozy well furnished and even a cd player and several books. Makes for a wellcome feeling!

Ingrid and Peter

 

If God lives somewhere, it must be close to this.........

In April 2008 the road up to the holiday apartment has been fixed and now any normal car can get here.

Voor de tweede keer in Porcospino, maar het was eenzelfde succes als de eerste keer !! Heerlijk rustig, mooie tochtjes gemaakt en opnieuw goed gegeten. Bedankt voor de gastvrijheid ! Hans en Xenia.

Het leven is hier goed en Porcospino is een heerlijk huisje. Stralend weer, schitterende hemels storm en noodweer wisselen elkaar af in november! Veel gewandeld, veel ontdekt, veel gegeten ! Everzwijnen gromden in het struikgewas, reëen kruisten ons pad !!  Hella en Hein

De aankomst op 23 december 's avonds was hartverwarmend. Het buitenlicht brandde, evenals de verwarming. Wijn stond op tafel! Geen witte kerst, maar bijna twee weken stralend vrieskoud wandelweer. De Monte Nerone was ontzagwekkend : picknick in de sneeuw !  We blijven hier graag terug komen !!

Woorden als verbondenheid met de natuur - sereniteit - de kunst van het genieten op Italiaanse wijze, komen in me op. We zijn dankbaar hier te hebben mogen vertoeven ! Verbondenheid is een groot goed. We hebben de kunst van het leven weer even mogen proeven.  Frank en Monique

We zijn enthousiast over wat we zien en raken in de loop van ons verblijf op Casa Porcospino steeds enthousiaster ! Een knus ingerichte ruimte, voorzien van wat er eigenlijk allemaal moet zijn ! 
Op alle details is gelet......kaarsen en waxinelichtjes, scherpe messen, schijnwerper en voor het eerst in een gehuurd appartement een slaapbank, die ook als zodanig functioneert : comfortabel.  Bravo ! Het uitzicht is GENIETEN. Het is ontroerend en bedwelmend als een amfitheater. Het pad naar boven met de auto vereist wel stuurmanskunst. De vele vogels, het wandelen in de omgeving, de mooie stadjes....
Alles bij elkaar : een prachtige en unieke ervaring. We komen zeker terug naar deze schitterende stek.
Wil en Ella

We really enjoyed this heaven-on-earth-spot  Casa Porcospino. The apartment has a very nice atmosphere and looks very good, with marvellous views from the terrace. You can "hear" the silence after a busy day.  We have visited Assisi, Rome, Florence, Siena etc.
Ian and Raquel

Wat een rust straalt deze plek uit : waanzinnige vergezichten, prachtige zonsondergangen ! Jammer genoeg was het weer de laatste dagen niet zo goed, hoewel binnen zitten in zo'n appartement zeker geen straf is !
John en Marijke

Een fantastisch huis, hoewel de weg ernaar toe moeizaam is. Het is helemaal naar onze smaak ingericht. Alles klopt : het voelt als thuiskomen ! Wat hebben we genoten : indrukwekkende natuur. Prachtige uitstapjes gemaakt. Geweldig !
Jos en Tineke

Je voelt je de koning te rijk in Casa Porcospino. Echt alles erop en eraan ! De weg ernaar toe lijkt soms alleen wat weg te hebben van de Camel Trophy ! Eenmaal eraan gewend : een heerlijk huisje wat binnen no time als ons " home away from home " voelde. Super !
Roy en Mandy

We hebben echt een leuke tijd gehad. Het huisje was super en zo knus ! We hebben hier zeker het gevoel van gastvrijheid mogen ervaren, door alle kleine extra's die er in het huis waren. We hebben enorm genoten !
Als we ooit een terreinwagen kopen, dan komen we zeker terug !
Erik, Jeanette, Nick en René

Prachtige plek hier ! We gaan nooit 2x naar dezelfde stek, maar wie weet komen we hier nog een keer terug, want het is wel echt iets bijzonders !!
An

Het huisje is perfect ! Knus, leuk ingericht en zelfs een cd-speler met cd's en verschillende boeken. Geeft een welkom gevoel !
Ingrid en Peter

Als God ergens woont, dan moet het hier dicht in de buurt zijn.........
