Nestled Against the Walls of Spello
We love the fun, colorful and whimsical details in this vacation home for rent in Umbria that somehow gives you both an immersive experience into the culture of the medieval town of Spello, and a design-centric passion that embraces both contemporary and ancient cultures.

Set within narrow cobbled streets and nestled against the ancient walls of the hill town of Spello, this historic vacation home for rent in Umbria delivers on both historical charm and contemporary style. Centrally located within the town, you'll be within walking distance of the medieval culture of the village while ensconced within an idyllic and peaceful setting with the heart of rural Umbria at your doorstep.
Restored and redesigned by owner and Spello resident Andrea Falkner, the house is one of three properties she has created as "a home away from home." Built from locally quarried pink-tinted Subasio stone, the setting provides a palpable sense of history. The atmosphere encourages relaxation and escape and is decorated with a mix of simple contemporary pieces, antiques and colorful pieces sourced from Falkner's world travels.
The main living area is light and open and laid out to be practical and unfussy with comfortable and cheerful living spaces and chic modern style. The kitchen, living and cafe style dining area form the nucleus of the cottage where you can dine and lounge by the fireplace, while an arched doorway leads to the two bedrooms festooned with vibrant colors, textiles and vintage furnishings where from the master bedroom you'll have picturesque views of the countryside.
The gardens were designed and planted as an intimate hideaway that allows for lounging on comfy day beds piled high with soft pillows and as a dining and relaxing holiday space to be spent with family and friends.

AROUND
Known as the "green heart of Italy", this region of Umbria is one of the most picturesque holiday destinations with pristine largely rural landscapes, rolling wooded hills, mountains and valleys and of course splendid art and architecture. Situated a two hour drive from Rome and just a few miles from Assisi, the enchanting hillside town of Spello is a quieter and less traveled medieval town at the base of Mount Subasio.
Standing on the west side of town are the magnificent 18th century era Porta Venere gates flanked by two 12-sided towers and fortress walls. Known for it's excellent Umbrian cuisine, fine wines and beautiful antiquity, Spello is the ideal base from which to explore Umbria. You are within easy reach of the famous neighboring hill towns of Orvieto, (with its legendary cathedral) Todi, Città di Castello, Gubbio, Perugia, Spoleto and the highly praised wine producing region of Montefalco.
