"Le Burgne" is a late 19th century farmhouse on the hills on the border between Umbria and Tuscany. Overlooking the Upper Tiber Valley, it dominates the entire valley: from Citta 'di Castello to Monte S. Maria Tiberina, from Anghiari to Citerna.
The farmhouse can accommodate up to 24 people in 5 quadruple bedrooms plus 2 doubles and, thanks to the large spaces, it is perfect for group holidays, special events and even weddings.
Our cooks can also cook tasty specialties on request.
The space
“Le Burgne” is an historical farmhouse with private pool from the 800’s located on the Umbrian hillside on the border between Umbria and Tuscany. Le Burgne has been turned into an agriturismo (holiday farm), with the big difference that here you can rent the whole 400 m2 house and its dependance to enjoy your country holiday in total comfort and privacy.
The building has been renovated, while maintaining intact the charm of an estate house: the external architectural structure has remained unchanged, as has the interior, characterized by stone walls, wooden beams and original floors. The entrance, entirely made in stone, features an old wood-burning oven (still functioning), a symbol of a now lost countryside culture. On the ground floor there is a large hall that originally was used as stables, with two brick arches and a stone and terracotta fireplace. Also on the ground floor there are the kitchen, the reception, the bar, and the two service bathrooms (one of which is wheelchair accessible).
The first floor features five spacious double bedrooms with very large bathrooms, and the possibility to add extra guests on either double sofa beds or bunk beds, and a reading corner.
The detached annex features instead 2 double bedrooms, one bathroom with shower and a kitchen with dining room.
The nicely shaped ecological pool is perfect for swimming and provides views over the Umbrian hills you will never forget.
While our guests will enjoy total privacy, the owner and her staff can help them out with anything from organizing cooking classes or catered dinners to bringing fresh vegetables from their vegetable garden.
Guest access
One side of Le Burgne's garden consists of pine trees where a small sitting area has been constructed, providing a welcoming cool area in summer. The other side has the ecological pool and the best views one could wish for. Quiet green woody hills interlaced with the odd field. In one corner you can see Città di Castello. The property is still in Umbria, but literally borders Tuscany.
Children can play at Le Burgne until they drop. Apart from the pool (with whirlpool in one corner), Le Burgne has a volleyball field, bocce, soccer field and a few games for younger children.
The ecological pool has wonderful views over the Upper Tiber Valley (Alta Valle del Tevere) and ample terraces. There is a lot of garden furniture and umbrellas. Moreover, the pool area has two toilets and both an inside and outside warm water shower. Lastly there is a small bar with big fridge where one can keep drinks and some snacks.
