Villa Cipresso



Your Own Private Umbria

Originally an olive mill, a frantoio used by the local community for centuries, Villa Cipresso is now a fully restored and transformed into a comfortable and welcoming accommodation. At the top of a winding gravel drive overlooking the surrounding Umbrian countryside, Cipresso allows a perfect combination of leisurely local touring with pure relaxation. The view over the olive groves and forested hills allows you to feel the way the world should be, and you are on top of it. What better experience for a week or two?

Restored in mellow coloured stone, Villa Cipresso is composed of two related buildings sharing a swimming pool, and therefore ideal for families and couples wishing to holiday together yet retain some privacy. Both houses retain their Umbrian country heritage and provide the comfort a modern guest would seek for a restful week. The cottage is for the exclusive use of whomever rents the main house, and will not be rented to another party during your stay. The cottage is entirely self contained. Villa Cipresso is extremely comfortable and welcoming with many communal areas for guests to relax, read and talk together. It has several patios making it easy to live outdoors as much as you like, yet offers great comfort the moment you step inside.

Villa Cipresso is part of the Todi Estate that includes 250 acres of private, memorable countryside consisting of olive groves, vineyards, forest and farms. A 5 Star stay in the quiet countryside, yet very close to the convenience of restaurants, touring and pampering services. Villa Cipresso is part of a successful well run family business and classic Italian traditions.

Spectacular renovation. Mario has the experience in knowing what customers want and builds it from bottom up. This place is perfect and I would love to stay there for an extended stay. Like a perfect country house.

A Little on the Region
They say that Umbria is the "Green Heart" of Italy - largely due to its location (the middle), shape (more or less a heart shape after a couple bottles of wine) and the color (rolling fields of green among forests). It's a lovely place, there is no denying this. But where to go? What to do? You are within a very close driving distace between Todi and Orvieto - bit with their own appeal and restaurants. May we suggest Perugia for its shopping, international ambience and film houses; Orvieto for its fabulous duomo and antiquities, Deruta for its ceramics, Assisi for the spiritual awakening and Todi for its art, ambience and antiquity. Nearby the small hamlets of Morre, Collelungo and Moruzze will have a couple of small grocery shops. But the real stuff is further afield. The Todi Estate includes a wonderful outdoor (covered structure) restaurant/grill located about 2 km from the castle, and less than 1 km walk from the other Todi properties of Pianesante and Cipresso. Fine Italian dining is in your future when you visit TodiCastle. Expect fresh, organic olive oil, truffles, wine and spices-all produced on the Estate. The property even boasts an in house restaurant, The Umbria Grill, where dining takes on a more fabulous meaning. A local chef is also available to prepare a delicious meal for you and your guests. To complete your Italian food experience, you might want to visit the nearby Ricotta and Pecorino cheese farm, wineries and olive oil mills in the area, or local farms to get another taste of true Italian country living.
