The house is situated on the borders of Umbria, Tuscany and Lazio, within the D.O.C. region of the Orvieto and Est!Est!Est! wines and within easy reach of Rome, Florence, Siena , Assisi and the Tyrrhenian coast.
This is an area full of history that emanates from its ancient buildings, hill top towns, castles and churches. Lake Bolsena's sandy beaches are only minutes away and offer water sports and fishing, within an unforgettable setting.
The farmhouse comprises of two totally independent units, but the Ground Floor is not being rented at the moment.
The 1st floor apartment offers spacious accommodation (130 square metres). Designed for comfort and easy living it retains a traditional rustic style. The two bedrooms and the well-equipped traditional farmhouse kitchen, overlook Lake Bolsena.

There are also two large comfortable bathrooms at each end of the floor. The apartment is totally private and independent and the guests have full use of the extensive grounds. The ground floor is our holiday home for when we visit Italy. A caretaker, who lives in the near village will be contactable to support you.

PLACES TO SEE
CIVITA DI BAGNOREGIO: 3 miles. This ancient hilltop village dates back to the Etruscans and is connected to Bagnoregio by a footbridge. Bagnoregio looks down on the magnificent Val Dei Calanchi with its dramatic eroded tufo peacks.
BOLSENA: 5 miles. Ancient town, the Etruscan Volsinii, that still retains its medieval narrow streets leading up to the castle. The town has magnificent lake front gardens and several restaurants where it is possible to eat 'al fresco' on the lakeshore. The local cuisine is unforgettable and the wines are probably amongst the best in Italy. Eating out is very reasonable.
ORVIETO: 10 miles. Hilltop town dug into the tufo rock. Magnificent cathedral, covered in golden mosaics and carvings that make it shine from the distance in the sunset.
MONTEFIASCONE: 5 miles. Medieval hilltop town, that was for centuries the summer residence of the Popes because of its favourable climate. Cobbled medieval streets lead to the Rocca Dei Papi and its fantastic views of Lake Bolsena. In August the town holds its monthly festival for the famous EST! EST!EST! wine.
LAKE BOLSENA: 15 minutes. Sandy /grassy shores, clean water, water sports & fishing. Unforgettable settings.
These are just a few of your local towns! There are so many interesting places to visit within a hour distance you'll be spoilt for choice. This is in my opinion one of the most interesting historic areas in Italy, but its geography, fauna and flora are also fascinating.
The Mediterranean sea is very near and it is easy to organise day trips to the unspoiled beaches of the National Park of the Uccellina or to Porto Ercole's elegant seafront or the picturesque rocky shores of the Isola Del Giglio. La Porcilaia is also ideally situated to visit the grandier towns of Rome, Florence, Siena, Assisi, Perugia, etc.
