Villa Santa Caterina sits high on a hill behind tall cypresses and regal umbrella pines, with breathtaking views in every direction. The villa dates back to the early 18th century and was lovingly restored by my family in 1996 using authentic materials wherever possible. The bright, spacious interiors are decorated in typical Umbrian/Tuscan style, with wood beamed ceilings, terracotta floors, Oriental rugs & many antique furnishings. Villa Santa Caterina welcomes families with children and groups of friends wishing to share a typically laid- back Italian lifestyle, or culture seekers wanting to explore the picturesque medieval Umbrian towns, such as Assisi, Orvieto, Perugia, Spoleto all less than an hour drive away.
Rather than describing our vacation home, I will let our past guests describe it for you.
"Santa Caterina is a special place on earth. We were completely awed by the view upon arrival and every single time we returned to the villa. If you have an image of what an Italian Villa is like, this is it" "We had a magnificent stay at Villa Santa Caterina and cannot recommend it highly enough. The location is breathtaking at the top of a hill overlooking stunning valleys and tree-filled hills beyond. The main house is full of character and charm, lovingly restored. The cottage is delightful. The pool is unbelievably set in the garden looking out over the most amazing view"
" a perfect location if you want to explore Umbria and its wonderful villages. The house is well maintained and has a beautiful character,"
