Colle Arponi
Colle Arponi is a typical Italian family home. Recently built (the pool was finished in 2009).
Beautifully situated on top of a small hill and very centrally located. The private villa has 4 bedrooms, sleeping 7 + 3 guests in all comfort. It consists of two apartments that are rented together as one private villa in high season and in low season one can rent only the bottom part, ideal for a couple (with or without smaller children).
There is wifi (the owner has a wifi key you can use). The cost is for the topping up of the wifi usb key.
The centrally located villa in Umbria has a fence and automatic gate. Driving up to the villa you first pass an old shed with chicken of the owners. The villa is further up the hill, set in a small green oasis with nice views on the surrounding hills.
The ground floor of the villa has two entrances. One at the side of the pool and the main entrance at the other side of the house, close to the parking area. The main entrance enters into the living room with fire place and comfortable sofa bed. The next room is the kitchen, spacious and fully equipped (fridge, freezer, dishwasher, oven, microwave, and 4 pit cooker). At the end there is a small hallway with the bathroom (with shower) and left is the double bedroom. You have access to the pool from this bedroom.
The first floor of this recently built villa has an outside staircase. The setup is very similar to the ground floor (living room and kitchen are identical). This floor however has 2 bathrooms (one with bath and one with shower) and 3 bedrooms (two doubles and one single). In one of the double bedrooms an extra single bed can be added. The other double bedroom has a nice balcony, overlooking the green hills of Umbria.
The pool is 5 by 10 meters and has Roman steps on one side. The pool is open from June to September. There is a shaded terrace at the side of the pool. The villa has covered parking for 2 cars and ample parking space for other cars if needed. There is a washing machine.
The main road to Foligno passes at 500 meters, but behind a hill. You only hear some traffic at the front of the house (where the car park is). Behind the house with the pool and terrace, you do not hear any traffic at all. In 10 minutes drive you are at the E45 (the main road through Umbria) where you will also find a shopping mall.

Good afternoon,
we enjoyed the villa very much.
We can not think of anything negative.
The reception upon arrival was very nice and the owners surprised us a few times with wine, tomatoes, eggs and olove oil during our stay.
Best wishes, P.S.

Dear Saskia and Willemijn,
This is the third time we booked through you and it was great as always! Colle Arponi is a beautiful house, superb location… we loved it. Owners, father and son are very friendly people!
Thanks a million for everything and who knows till next year!
Ciao, Rob & Sadia
Good afternoon, We enjoyed a splendid holiday in Umbria!!!. The house is lovely, the location just great, we really were on cloud 9 when we arrived. The house is very complete. The table outside seats 6 so not big enough for all. We switched it with the table from inside. It would have been more logical if they had made the kitchen next to the exit to the garden, now we had to go through the bedroom to bring everything outside. Not that big a deal but it would have made the house perfect. We saw some scorpions in the house but that probably can't be helped but it did frighten us! The owner plans to install airco next year which would be a good thing as it can be quite warm on the upper floors. The owner is a very genial guy and after one week they came over to clean the whole house, pool and change all towels and linen so no complaints there. We all had a fantastic holiday, thank you and maybe till next year!!!.
Kind regards, Family P. and Family B.
Comments Villa in Umbria: The scorpions one encounters in Umbria are pretty harmless. Being stung however can be quite an unpleasant experience. However they are not dangerous at all.
Dear Saskia and Willemijn,
We had a lovely stay in Colle Arponi. The house was very comfortable, clean, good beds, nice shower and an ample assortment of cutlery and tableware. The first week we had a very pleasant time with 10 people in the house. Kids loved the pool, chicken and the rock climbing. Very nice owners who brought us fantastic tomatoes, wine and fresh eggs. Only problem is that the table outside does not seat 10 persons, we resolved this problem by joining it with a kitchen table. Very pretty house and beautiful pool. You do have to drive 20 to 30 min. before you reach a nice restaurant. In all villages one can find terrific restaurants but we would have liked it if there had been at a 5 to 10 min drive even if it only would have been a simple pizzeria.
Thank you for services and till next time!
Regards, N.S.

Dear Saskia and Willemijn,
We very much enjoyed our stay at Colle Arponi and can warmly recommend the house to future guests. Everything one needs is present. The pool was cleaned every week and has plenty decliners and sunbeds around it. The garden is sprinkled every two/three days. Once a week bedlinnen and towels were changed. The small inventory of the kitchen is complete. We were glad there was a washing machine and a dishwasher too.
The house is situated in a quiet area, and central to visit sites in Umbria. We enjoyed Umbria a lot with its cute little towns. From the house it is also possible to make a day trip to Rome and Tuscany.
All in all, only positive remarks. The owners are very friendly and even gave us tomatoes, plums and eggs from their own garden and chickens.
Regards, Danita
Hi Saskia and Willemijn,
Here a late reaction to our holiday at Colle Arponi last summer.
We very much enjoyed this beautiful house: well furnitured, large, clean and all brand new.
Good pool with plenty decliners and sunbeds.
Also very agreeable in the hot summer sun is the covered parking space!
Location os the house is central and easy to reach. Near the highway E45 is a large new supermarket. Very handy!
The owners (father and son) are very friendly and helpful. Upon arrival we found a home made cake and fresh vegetables from the land. We had some problems ciìomunicating since the owners only speak italian. It was very practical to be able to call Willemijn when we needed to comunicate with the owner.
By the middle of the week, tha father passed by again with a bag full of tomatoes. Very tasteful!
If I may mention something negative: the website says the top floor has three bedrooms and six beds. We only saw 5 beds, because of which we managed ourselves differently. It is a pity that the house has the main kitchen on the top floor. It would have been more practical if this would have been the ground floor.
Do watch out to take the keys with you before closing the door. If not you are locked out, even if the door is not locked, you cannot open it again without the key.
The water pressure is low. Taking a shower at the same time as somebody else, is impossible.
In the direct area is a shooting club, or something like that. By the end of the day, and mainly in the weekend, this can be disturbing the peace.
The price/quality of the house was good. A nice house, comfortable with an acceptable price and well organised by Villa in Umbria.
Regards, Theo.
Comment Villa in Umbria: The kitchens on the ground floor and the top floor are identical. On the website it says there are three bedrooms upstairs: one with a double bed, one with a double bed and an extra single bed and the third with a single bed only.
The owners ask a downpayment of 40% of the rental with the balance to be paid upon arrival. The security deposit is 400 euro, to be paid upon arrival.
