Vacation Rental Description
Ca de Luca is a 200 year old stone-built former farmhouse with private solar heated pool. The accommodation, arranged over 3 floors, sleeps 12 + 2 infants. It is situated 1.5kms up a white road in a clearing on a beautiful wooded hillside with uninterrupted views extending across to the other side of the valley. It is conveniently located for visiting all the key attractions in this beautiful part of Umbria and Tuscany. The location is peaceful with very little if any traffic noise. The property retains all its intrinsic character including terracotta floors and chestnut beamed ceilings. The house has been furnished as a home rather than a holiday rental and is child friendly with 2 travel cots, 2 highchairs and plates and cutlery suitable for children. Trestina is 15 mins away for all your food shopping and other practical requirements. The house has recently been installed with wi fi internet access for those of you who want to remain in touch. 
 
The house is let on a self-catering basis. We provide a welcome back of basic foodstuffs for your arrival. We have 2 English caretakers who will come and see you the day after you have arrived to ensure that your stay goes smoothly. The double bedrooms all have 5' 3" metal framed beds. The linen is crisp, predominantly white cotton with light summer duvets for cooler nights. The twin beds are 3' wide and again all the linen is cotton. All the rooms are prettily but simply furnished and decorated. All the windows have built-in mosquito nets on them. There are room fans available for each bedroom. 
 
From the terrace there are steps leading up to the pool house where sunloungers, cushions, pool toys, barbecue, WC and drying racks for wet clothes can be found. The swimming pool is 10m x 5m and has a saltwater chlorinator (very good for the skin!) The pool has a large paved surround with ample room for sunbathing, but with plenty of natural shade as well. At one end of the swimming pool is a large bamboo and wisteria covered pergola with an enormous travertine marble table with seating for 16 people. It provides shade for long leisurely lunches, and has electric lighting, together with candles for warm evenings. The gardens, extend to approximately 3 acres, of terracing, trees, and shrubs.

    "Idyllic family escape."

    A fantastic week. The villa was very comfy and extremely well equipped (both inside and out). It was the perfect base for an very easy, fun week for the entire family. There was plenty to explore locally but the family was equally happy to stay at the villa - children never out of the pool and grown ups dozing in the sun, reading in the shade or chatting around the wonderful outside dining area. Very relaxing and something for everyone. Thank you!

    "Large Villa with Stunning views in secluded area. Private pool"

    Beautiful large Villa with breathtaking views, set in secluded area. The Villa offers accommodation for 2/3 families and has it's own private pool. Ideal for families with young children or teenagers. Village close by for shopping. Also, day trips to Rome, Pisa. Fab restaurants close by both for adults/children. A getaway from it all holiday - totally relaxing.

    "A magical holiday"

    We rented this villa so that the entire family could be together and it was just perfect. Little ones could play in the pool while others went off exploring in the hills or the local towns. The villa had everything that one would expect and is in the most tranquil setting. We will definitely be back - thanks for a wonderful holiday!

    Now that Ryanair charge you for wearing thick socks the provision of pool and bath towels was most welcome as was the welcome pack of basic provisions to tide you over on arrival and for breakfast the next morning. The last thing one wants to do having travelled most of the day is to go to the supermarket.

    A perfect holiday for 3 generations. Very well-equipped and lots of places to sit and relax be you a sun-worshipper or preferred cool quiet shade.

    Ca de Luca does what it says on the tin. Whether you want to relax by the pool or chase down Piero della Francesco's it is the perfect location. The batterie de cuisine is excellent and the caretakers extremely helpful. We would come again.

    Owners Profile
    A Home from Home

    In the pasts guests have enjoyed staying at my house because they find it very well equipped for families and it is as described in the advertisement. I have a good network of people who look after my guests, from the caretakers who visit the day after your arrival to check everything is ok and they are on hand if there are any problems, to the discreet gardeners, pool managers and cleaners.

    The house is located in quiet peaceful countryside but is only a short drive to restaurants, shops and bars for your everyday needs and is also very well located for sightseeing trips in both Umbria and Tuscany.
