Villa Zenzero

Ancient castle and adjoining church meticulously renovated with infinity pool and unique ambiance.

The property can accommodate up to 12 adults and 1 infant (1 crib and 1 extra bed available at extra cost).

Situated on the top of a hill over the Tiber valley, with breathtaking views over rolling hills, olive groves and vineyards, this ancient castle  and adjoining church  has now been meticulously renovated and converted into a contemporary property with infinity pool.

Space is the primary element of this project, featuring an extensive surrounding garden, a large  kitchen and six  bedrooms each with en-suite marble bathroom. Vaulted ceilings, terracotta tiles floors, thirteen century frescoes, travertine marble stairs create an atmosphere which is luxurious yet not ostentatious, mixing contemporary sense of comfort with traditional materials.

Spacious sitting  rooms, smart LCD TV with Sky television compose the living ambiance of the property, completed by a bluetooth sound system, a laundry room and  high speed wireless internet access. Air conditioning is built throughout the villa, garden and pool area. The XI century church, adorned with hand-painted decorations, stands adjacent and connected to the villa.

Food & Wine:

A number of close-by restaurants and trattorias serve  organic, local cuisine. We recommend the  restaurant contained in the  estate called  Il Caldaro, and  the  best restaurant in the area  is  Ristorante ai Girasoli di Sant’Andrea. Sneak  to  Salcheto  for a wine tasting in the  area  of Montepulciano. Each restaurant in Umbria offers a kid menu  and  none raises  an eyebrow when  toddlers make an entrance in a Michelin starred spot.

Family:

Possible activities  include  hiking, cycling and  wine tasting – your local concierge can help  guests hire bicycles,  boats and  tents at the nearby beach clubs.  Goats, hens, rabbits, pigeons and  ducks  are some of the  animals  that  can be  found  in our farmhouse, located in the  heart of the  Estate. Within the  rolling hills rises the  green foliage  of our olive groves. With their massive  trunks and thick leafy branches the  centuries-old olive trees dominate the  extensive fields of the  estate and  stretch as far as the  eye  can see.  Time with family is celebrated in Italy, in fact almost every activity here  is kid-friendly.
