Food is incredibly important in Italy, for both locals and visitors alike and most travellers who book a villa in Italy will be looking forward to eating well with a good degree of anticipation. In order to well and truly savour your meal like a local and avoid dining disasters, here are some things that you might keep in mind:
Casale le Fonti is a very pretty stone villa nestled in the lush Umbria countryside that boasts incredible gardens, views, and interiors. Sleeping 12 people comfortably in six bedrooms with six bathrooms, it is located 3km (2 miles) from Moiano and 33km (21 miles) from Montepulciano in Tuscany. Guests who stay here, therefore, can make the most of their time in Italy by having easy access to both Umbria and Tuscany.

In order to help you find something extra-special, here is a curation of some of our villas in Italy that recently received 5-star reviews from fellow travellers.

While the lush landscapes of rolling green hills and pretty villages equal to those famous examples in Tuscany, the rich foodie culture and incredible wines, the fascinating cultural heritage, and the fact that the region remains largely untouched by mass tourism are all excellent reasons to book a vacation rental in Umbria, there is one sight that makes a summer break here particularly unforgettable. Each year, between May and July, a great blooming of wildflowers spreads across vast meadows in the countryside of Umbria. This colourful natural spectacle is an extraordinary thing to behold and a true natural wonder that we think is well worth adding to your bucket list. Book your villa in Umbria for the early part of summer 2026 now and take it all in with your own eyes...
