Description:
RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE (CIR CODE: 054029AGR1G08082). Beautiful Podere Le Corone is located in Doglio, a delightful medieval borgo situated on one of the hills surrounding Todi, characterised by the unmistakable features of the Umbrian landscape and completely surrounded by a large olive grove, a fertile terrain that every year produces a highly prized organic extra virgin olive oil. Since 1601 the borgo has been silent witness to local traditions and the walls, in antique exposed stone, are still steeped in the charm of a place that has seen changing seasons and scenarios, but which has maintained over time its charismatic and discreet presence in this wonderful setting. In 1994, the property was purchased by the current owners who, seduced by the beauty and harmony of its nature, have done everything to preserve the magic of this place. The Podere Le Corone complex develops around an external courtyard and is composed of a main house and two annexes. The conservation of all the details and original aspects were the guideline of the restoration work while the colours and materials were inspired by the Umbrian countryside and the result of a choice of a rustic and welcoming style. The large bedrooms are all equipped with air conditioning. The beautiful and super panoramic swimming pool, also surrounded by old olive trees, is located on lower terracing with respect to the house and enjoys great privacy. There are various outdoor areas equipped with tables, chairs, benches, wood oven and barbecue, the ideal places for cooking and enjoying pleasant outdoor dinners. Podere Le Corone is completed by a majestic living area located on the first floor, equipped with guest bathrooms, ideal to be used for business meetings, ceremonies and parties at a daily extra cost which includes cleaning. The structure also lends itself to accommodating large groups who wish to share the spacious and welcoming common areas and, at the same time, have independent spaces available, safeguarding their privacy. We are in Doglio, a small hamlet just 5 km from Monte Castello di Vibio, a typical medieval castle built in a raised position, dominating the river Tiber. This borgo, besides its rare beauty, can boast of having one of the smallest historical theatres in the world. From here it is easy to move around to visit the numerous places of natural, artistic and religious interest in the area. Todi is 15 km from the property, while a short drive will take you to the beautiful towns of central Italy, such as Orvieto, Assisi, Perugia, Spoleto. Furthermore, the excellent motorway connections guarantee easy travel to the nearby regions of Tuscany and Lazio. NB In an annex adjacent to the villa lives the caretaker, a very kind and discreet person, who will be available for any needs and requirements of the guests while fully respecting their privacy and their exclusive spaces.
PODERE LE CORONE HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE.

Park:
Podere Le Corone is located on a hill, one of the most beautiful in front of Todi and Monte Castello di Vibio, and is surrounded by a 22-hectare estate, covered for the most part by a beautiful olive grove of 6,600 trees and surrounded by a beautiful country landscape, where tall trees, fruit trees, jasmine, lavender, roses and potted flowers dot the areas in front of the house. Outside the kitchen and dining room is a large portico with an area set up for alfresco dining with a mobile barbecue and furnished with chairs, tables and, for cooler evenings, a patio heater which can be turned on. Just outside the house is a wood oven. Other areas perfect for enjoying the utmost tranquility or just pleasantly chatting with a good glass of wine, are the courtyard furnished with table and chairs, various benches located around the property and the yard where once the wheat was threshed by hand under the sun and now equipped with tables, chairs and umbrellas. After the automatic iron gate, at the end of the internal driveway bordered by olive trees is a parking area with 4 covered spaces and 6 uncovered spaces.
Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.
Swimming Pool:
The panoramic swimming pool, located behind the house and about 20 m from it, is located at a lower level and can be reached down a flight of wooden steps. An open view of the surrounding countryside opens out in front of you, offering suggestive and exciting sunsets. The pool, measuring 12 x 6 m with a varying depth of 1.50 to 2 m, is lined with PVC with a stone border and has chlorine purification, internal spotlights and three internal steps on one side. Along the perimeter of the pool is the stone-paved solarium, equipped with sunbeds, deck chairs and umbrellas, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees to ensure a quiet and shady rest in complete relaxation.
