Description
Property Summary
Nestled on the eastern slope of the tuff cliff that embraces Orvieto, one of Italy's most captivating art cities, Podere Torre delle Sorgenti is a truly extraordinary vacation rental born from the meticulous restoration of a historic 16th-century dovecote tower, a project entrusted to architect Martin Stubenrauch. The result is a residence of absolute originality, where centuries of history meet refined modern design in a setting of rare natural beauty. Orvieto itself, famously described as "the tall, strange city," appears from a distance as though suspended in the sky, and from the property you need only raise your eyes to take in the imposing walls of this fascinating city with nearly three thousand years of history. Inside, the interiors are distinguished by light-coloured wooden ceilings with iron beams, parquet and fine terracotta flooring, and a striking glass staircase connecting the 2 floors. The property is surrounded by a generous yard of 1.5 hectares, thoughtfully landscaped across terraces of Etruscan origin and filled with flowering plants, colourful roses, evergreen bushes, fruit trees, and a large vegetable garden with fragrant herbs. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, ensuring you remain connected during your stay. A dedicated 3-car parking area, accessible through an automatic gate, is conveniently located at the entrance to the villa, offering secure and effortless arrival.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Podere Torre delle Sorgenti are as carefully considered as the interiors, offering a seamless transition between the natural landscape and the comforts of the property. In front of the large openable windows on the ground floor, 2 distinct areas for outdoor dining have been set up, each equipped with umbrellas, tables, and chairs, complemented by a built-in barbecue and a convenient sink. On the first floor, a charming outdoor living area shaded by a pergola features a sofa and coffee table, offering a breathtaking view towards the tuff cliff and the Fortezza Albornoz of Orvieto, the perfect spot to savour a glass of local wine in pleasant company. The 1.5-hectare garden extends over several terraces of Etruscan origin, following the natural slope of the land and embellished with flowering plants, colourful roses, evergreen bushes, fruit trees, and a large vegetable garden with fragrant herbs located just a few metres from the first-floor entrance. Please note that photographs of the garden were taken in spring, so the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The beautiful rectangular swimming pool, which is for the exclusive use of guests and is non-heated, occupies a terrace at a lower level than the house, approximately 25 metres away and reached via a flight of 21 steps.

Both internal and external lighting are available, and the solarium is equipped with sunbeds, deck chairs, an umbrella, and a solar shower. A natural spring runs alongside the pool, and the gentle, continuous sound of flowing water adds a deeply relaxing atmosphere to the space.

Situated in the Canicella area on the eastern side of the tuff cliff surrounding Orvieto, the property is just a few minutes' walk from the historic city centre, with a scenic route skirting the splendid ramparts that evoke an authentic country atmosphere while remaining in close proximity to the vibrant historic core. The Canicella area itself holds considerable historical and cultural significance, being known not only for its natural springs and reeds, from which it takes its name, but also for the "Venus of Canicella," an Etruscan statuette preserved in the city's civic museum.
The property is also just a few minutes by car from the motorway exit, making it an ideal base for exploring the rich cultural and naturalistic itineraries that wind through the surrounding territory. The short distance from the motorway furthermore facilitates easy travel to nearby Tuscany and Lazio, where well-known art centres such as Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza, and Viterbo are all within comfortable reach, along with many other destinations of historical and artistic interest.

L’Ovile is a typical Tuscan farmhouse whose origins date back to the beginning of the 20th century; it was bought, together with the larger estate Casanova, by the present owners in the 60’s and used as a farm, whose fundamental principle is the protection and respect of nature and the territory. The farmhouse, in a separate position and independent from the farm, and consistent with its spirit and vocation, has been recently restored with reclaimed materials such as the stone which covers the structure or else with new materials made in the old way such as the stone floor or the bricks set above the chestnut beams which cover the ceiling. The recent renovations have further characterized the farmhouse (equipped with solar panels and PV system), conferring to the outside the particular fortress style, a building technique which was used in the Middle Ages. L’Ovile, immersed in the green lung of the Sienese Montagnola, is the ideal place for those wishing to spend a holiday dedicated to eco-tourism where Nature is protagonist, for those wishing to experience the territory composed of dense woods, rich in chestnut groves. In these places, once the more well-known spots are left behind, the traveller finds unexpected and surprising roads that accompany him in his discovery of a sunny Tuscany where the countryside is vast tracts of land that stretch ad infinitum and the gentle hills invite him to be lulled amidst vineyards and olive groves. But it is also a journey into ancient history that starts from the historic centres, true salons of stone, and winds along routes rich in abbeys of Etruscan charm, of towers and ruins, testifying to old disputes and which are today immersed in absolute peace.
Your Emma Villas Customer service is CRISTINA GIANNINI and you can reach her for any emergencies, or further information you may required during your stay. All useful telephone numbers will be sent together with your booking documents.
