Umbria, the green heart of Italy |
|
Casale Cipresso is a traditionally built stone farmhouse, sleeping max 6 guests, sitting within more than two hectares of sloping fields and a small olive grove. The accommodation enjoys unparalleled panoramic views across the Umbrian landscape, with Todi visible some 20 km to the South. The property is located in Collazone and as such is within easy reach of some of Umbria's most beautiful towns and villages, including Perugia, Assisi, Spoleto, Deruta, Bevagna and Montefalco (the latter three within 10km). The accommodation combines traditional Umbrian architecture and local materials, such as chestnut beams and terracotta tiles, with all the essential comforts of modern living.
The private accommodation, accessed through a long cypress-lined
driveway, is framed on two sides by a very spacious veranda.
Downstairs is a large living / dining room, a well-equipped kitchen
with dishwasher, and a bedroom with en-suite bathroom. With
another two ample bedrooms upstairs, each with an en-suite modern
bathroom, the property comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests.
The 12 by 6 meter pool, surrounded by terracotta tiles, is positioned
to take maximum advantage of the fine views and exquisite
panorama. The pool has a solar heating panel attached to it.
Ideal for May and September on a fresh day to still be able to swim.
There is also a pool cover that helps keeping the water warm. With the nearest shopping and restaurants just 4 km away, the accommodation offers absolute privacy, while providing very easy access to the region's famous wineries and gastronomical delights, as well as Umbria's famous cultural patrimony.

Guest comments Casale Cipresso Back to the description of Casale Cipresso From 2009: Dear, we had a wonderful holiday in Collazone. The houese is ideally located and well equipped. The only comments would be that it may be practical to create more shade around the pool area. IT was extremely hot when we were there. We would have loved booking again for 2010, but unfortunately saw the house has already been booked in te period we would like to rent! Kind regards, Barbara and Thomas
Hi Willemijn and Saskia,
We had a wonderful time in casale Cipresso where we stayed for two
weeks. We did have some hick ups, though: On Monday Marcello passed by to check upon us and brought fresh egges and marmelade. Tuesday: the electricity problems seems to be resolved. Wednesday: also the pump of the pool was fixed. Monday the week after: the boiler stopped working. Lucia responded by coming by the next day with a technician. Boiler fixed, pump of the pool breaks down again! All in all, we had a good time at the Casale Cipresso but had a bit too much hassle with all the reparations during our stay and as a result, lacked some of our privacy. We would like to compliment Lucia and Marcello, though, for all their assistance. We do realise our e-mail is not particularly positive, but hope you can make use of our comments. With kind regards, Connie Reaction owner: he is very sorry that in two weeks time evrything seem to break down at the same time. He has never experienced anything like it. He will commit himself to check more thoroughly all appliances before the first arrivals.
Hi Saskia and Willemijn, Here some feedback about Casale Cipresso: The house is just perfect! Most of the time we stayed around the pool (it was very hot when we were there). The pool is very clean and from here the views around are fantastic. The veranda that can be closed is a wonderful place to laze around, dine etc. With bad weather we closed the glass doors and enjoyed the thunderstorm! The bedrooms, each with bathroom, are just fine. The downstairs bedroom is best used by people who are used to sleep with doors open and who do not mind the noises of the surrounding nature during the night. The kitchen is well equipped if you like home cooking, but restaurants in the area are perfect! It would be ridiculous to mention negative comments about this house. The weather can be a negative aspect, but even then, the area has so many beautiful sights to visit that it'll be hard to be annoyed! The directions are perfect, but maybe it would be handy to also supply the GPS co-ordinates, since nowadays most people enjoy fllowong "the voice from the box"! And for people who come by motorbike: the last kilometre to the house is best done with a endurobike, especially after some heavy rainfall! It was just lovely and we hope to be able to come back. Thank you for the good preparation and your services. Kind regards, Marc
Dear Saskia and Willemijn, Thank you for your invitation to provide feedback on our stay. Our family had a very enjoyable stay and you can quote us (anonymously) as saying that 'Casale Cipresso is a well-appointed, well-maintained and delightfully situated Umbrian retreat, perfect for a large family (or two small ones)'. Our experience was very positive on the whole. As I think we have already communicated, the stay could have been improved if: The pool people knew what they were doing (the heating wasn't operating the first week, and when they engaged it they broke it and it had to be repaired) The gardeners hadn't used all the water refilling the pool, with the result that we were virtually without water for 24 hours. The house is very comfortable and the sun-room very special. If we were to suggest two structural improvements to the obviously fastidious (and lucky!) owners it would be to: Build a vine covered pergola off the drive way near the house (i.e. shade for car) Create more bench space in the kitchen. For a home this size, the available bench space (especially for Italian cooking!) struck us as too limited. I hope these comments are useful. We would certainly consider returning. Best, Paul
From before 2009: Dear Willemijn, We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Casale Cipresso and haven't got any negative comments regarding this house. Furthermore we liked the way your organisation dealt with our booking. We especially liked the communication via email regarding all kinds of practical things about the house. Your website will certainly be at the top when booking a new holiday in Umbria! Kind regards, Maaike en Andries
Dear Willemijn and Saskia, A short while after our holiday we received a questionnaire from the (American/Belgian?) owner of Casale Cipresso. We reacted in a very positive way: that one short week in their house in Umbria left us and our 4 children with a big impression. Frankly put it was marvellous: beautiful and overwhelming house/surroundings, well equipped and very friendly reception. Moreover we were coincidentally really lucky with the weather that week, so....... a very prosperous undertaking. We always say we will never go to the same place twice but this experience makes us doubt such a remark. Who knows we might try to return in all. Anyhow we have plans -this time without kids- to visit Umbria or Rome on a long weekend trip. Thank you so much for everything; we will promote www.villainumbria.com among our friends and acquaintances. Kind regards, Christianne en Jan
Dear Willemijn, We spent a wonderfull holiday in the house near Gaglietole. We liked the house very much. Great location, splendid views, nice swimming pool, enough space to accomodate 6 people and equipped with all desired luxury as dishwasher, washing machine, tv, DVD player. We are considering to make reservations for this house for next years summerholidays. Do you have any information regarding occupancy and prices for next year? Kind regards, Ruud
