DETAILS:
Posta Vecchia is a country-house is located in the heart of the Umbrian countryside, at 15 minutes from Perugia. Surrounded by the hills of this land, the property lies in Vocabolo Vallelunga of Badiola where the roads to Orvieto, Lake Trasimeno and Città della Pieve converged. Between the 13th and 16th centuries, this merging of roads marked the old via Orvietana which linked Perugia to Orvieto, Lake Bolsena and the Francigena way.
This junction was also characterized by the presence of an edifice, the country-house in question, where Benedictine monks gave shelter to wayfarers, merchants, pilgrims and their horses. The country house is located in proximity of a provincial road that allows visitors to easily access all Tuscan and Umbrian cities such as Assisi, only 25 minutes away by car, or cities of art including Todi, Spoleto, Spello, Gubbio, Città di Castello, Arezzo, Siena, Cortona, and Città della Pieve. Rome is an hour and a half away by train from Perugia railway station, as is Florence.
Now transformed by its owners into a country-house marked by elegant furnishings and attention to detail, the Posta Vecchia offers five apartments of varying size, all very recently restored.
All the apartments are provided with bedroom and bathroom linen; the kitchens are well equipped with plates, glasses, cutlery, pots, pans and all the necessary for a carefree vacation.
The owners have sought to re-create a family atmosphere in all seven of the country-house apartments, in order to satisfy those guests who wish to enjoy both the quiet of country life and the refinement of an exclusive facility.
The four apartments we offer are in the main Villa. Another three apartments are in two outbuildings.
