| GIANESI, with its private swimming pool, sits in extensive grounds
at the end of a quiet track. It enjoys lovely views over rolling wooded
hills and valleys. Having been sympathetically restored, it provides comfortable
accommodation set in tranquil and beautiful countryside. A wonderful place
to 'chill out' and relax. Although the large dining terrace is ideal for
'al fresco' meals, Gianesi is also within easy reach of a host of authentic
local restaurants.
Gianesi has been designed so that it makes an ideal house for a couple on their own or a family or two families where a degree of separation is desired. There are three south facing terraces by the house, the top one is equipped with a wooden table and seating for six under a traditional pergola. There is also a barbecue and further bench seating. The garden has been landscaped using the lines of the original terracing and retaining mature fig, hazel and other trees to provide shade. Further seating and a small table are provided on these terraces. There is also a small orchard, which though recently planted, provides fruit in season (plums, pears, apricots and peaches). A low wall protects the pool area, there is shade under a pergola, a
shower and several sun loungers and other chairs. The pool itself is 10m
x 5m.

The Spirit of the 'green heart' of Italy
Its colours and contours are generally more subtle thanin other parts of Italy and even in the shimmering heat of summer, the unspoilt countryside has a rich lushness. The Umbrians are proud of their history and traditions which they are
more than happy to share with visitors with their natural charm and good
humour.
