Gîte / Cottage


The terrain on which 'da nonna' lies is known as 'al settimo cielo' (in the 7th heaven). The site has no neighbors. In addition to the sounds of nature, absolute peace and tranquility. "Nonna" that takes its name from the fact that the ancient mother of the previous owner lived here, is part of the casetta degli angeli (angel house), where angels talk about your well-being watch. The cottage is in a nature park of 2ha.
In the casetta degli angeli there is another apartment / gite, Vista sul mare. For a larger group (max. 8-10 people) it can be interesting to rent both apartments. If you want, please contact us.

Since the spring of 2017 you can cool off in the new 'biolaghetto', a large swimming pond with a separate children's pool. A dive in this pond is a treat for the skin. Neither chlorine nor salt is used. The water is purified with plants that have been planted in a separate area. So you don't have to be afraid of aquatic plants between the toes.

The interior of the gites has had an eye for detail: a mix of modern and vintage furniture. There is some art on the walls; also in the park, which is available for a small part, you will find numerous art objects.
There is a wood burning stove in addition to central heating. In the kitchen there is sufficient crockery and cutlery, well-cutting knives, functioning pepper mill, garlic press etc. We have tried to avoid all annoyance about houses that we once rented ourselves. You can leave your box with frying pans, knives etc. at home and perform your culinary delights here.
The bedrooms are equipped with single beds, which can be pushed together as you wish. There are of course enough duvets and bedding (1 set per person per week, assuming an occupancy of two people). The same applies to towels: a set of 2 towels of a good size per person per week. You will need to bring a beach towel.
If you want to stay with more than two people in 'da nonna', you pay an extra 30 € pp for bed linen and towels.
The bathrooms are simple but functional. Everything you need is in it: shower, sink, bidet, toilet.
There is sufficient garden furniture that you can place anywhere. We do, however, ask you to treat me carefully.
You can stay here and take care of yourself, but if you want we can bake bread for you. You can also join the table d'hôte twice a week for a 4-course dinner with heavenly dishes and wine (25 € pp).
Because we already organize creative and culinary courses at Settimo Cielo, we can organize a cooking workshop for you. We would like to hear this a week or two before arrival. If you want to felt a part of the day or decorate ceramics, let us know at the start of your stay. We can also provide creative material. We can even arrange a teacher for you. We must know that a month or two before arrival. The rate depends on what exactly we agree with each other.

Many people choose us because of this flexibility. This way we can also show you the way to places and attractions that you yourself could not find so easily; we even want to take you in tow. Of course you pay a price for this kind of extra services. It depends on what exactly we agree.

'Da nonna' is a perfect place for couples who want to focus on their relationship. After all, it sometimes threatens to come under pressure in the hectic everyday life.

Even those seeking tranquility, who want nothing more than 'dolce far niente' (do nothing blissfully) will find their way here as well as nature lovers. Are you a musician and do you want to study in peace with a small group? Then you are at your place. No neighbors who will complain about false notes or not. Do you want to have the peace and quiet for writing a book or piece of music then it is also the place 2 be. Visual artists can be inspired by nature, tranquility and space. Think of the (h) honest Italian cuisine with its heavenly dishes, the local wines as if Bacchus gave them yourself and you feel like in seventh heaven.

Once again we wanted a change of course: experience abroad. We have spent time finding the right place: 3 years of our vacations and sometimes a weekend. In the end we found the most beautiful place that you can imagine. It is not without reason that we have called this place 'al settimo cielo', in seventh heaven, a place to share. Jobs in the public sector canceled and moved in 2008 to focus on the organization of creative and cooking courses and hospitality.

Location & area recommendations

Additional information

Although Umbria is one of the few regions in Italy that are landlocked, was here very long ago, the sea, the traces of which you can find on the site: walls consisting Sabbia di mare (sea sand) with shells in it.
The house is situated in Etruscan area. The traces of the Etruscans are still evident. There are several caves, partly habitable, which have been carved by the Etruscans. In one of these caves is a kitchen made, which is used as a summer kitchen but also intended for group activities such as cooking classes. Another Etruscan cave contains two showers and toilets for any campers. They are also used during training, so participants do not always own the apartments if one is working.
Some caves are supposedly inhabited by a family of porcupines and where the badger lives? We are still behind, but we have strong suspicions that he lives in the area, like the fox ... Pheasants are only visitors, but sometimes they come very close.
1. Mostly true: You ask and we deliver. Obviously within the limits of our possibilities.
You can use the multitude of creative material that is available, because the owners also run center for art and cooking. Instead of an immediate course of a few days to follow, you may one day (part) creative steam. Even a teacher can be arranged.
You can also use the guidance of two 'pasta mama's'uit Ficulle learning itself paste. They are happy to give you more of their cooking secrets.

Price in concert, depending on the program.

2. The owners know their region. They are happy to show you the way to lots of places that you as ordinary tourists would not easily find. If necessary, they want to make arrangements for you and, if desired, they are willing to "take on sleeptouw'te to those places.

Any entrance fees and transportation costs are at your expense. For the services of the owners themselves must determine the value.

3. request the owner nasty baking fresh bread for you. This service is free

4. twice a week, you can subscribe to the 'table d'hôte': the host and - wife at the table you can create a celestial course Italian meal with Italian wines, enjoy.

Price: 25 euros per person.
'Da nonna'is ideal for two people, but there are still two beds on the mezzanine. If you stay more than two people in 'Da nonna "please contact us. To give you an idea, the following surcharges per person per night: low season 12 euros per person per night
mid season 16 euros per person per night
season 18 pppn

Furthermore, you pay for those additional people for the bed linen and towels: € 30 per person extra per week for a set of sheets and towels.

Another option is to rent our summer house there, a 2-person studio with private terrace.

A cot is no problem, if you are two persons. For 15 euros a night we put it there for you.
“a tranquil base for exploring Umbria”

Our stay at Da Nonna's could not have been better. The appartment is cosy and well equipped, and the owners are very hospitable, catering to your every need.

The best thing about this place is the location, though. Wonderful hiking opportunities, bird-spotting, wildlife, as well as dozens of quaint Umbria villages. The location is close to cities and cultural activities, yet in the middle of nature.

Knowing Umbria as the back of their hand, Edith and Willem will gladly help you to put together a list of sights and activities. Thanks to them, we had a lovely week, filled with unique experiences.
The property was "as advertised" and a good value for the price paid.
The property provided wifi/internet access. My security deposit was returned on time.

"casetta degli angeli, a wonderful place for rest seekers"

Like last year, we rented the entire "casetta degli angeli", so "Vista sul mare" and "Da nonna" for our 6-persons family.

A wonderful place for everyone who seeks rest. Beautiful nature and garden and well equipped house. Owners are very fine people, who wants to feel you at home. A lot of privacy.
The beautiful pond on the property makes it a joy to stay. I recommend this vacation rental to every one who likes peace and quiet. It is also very good families with young children.

"peace and quiet"


We have very much enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. The same goes for the hospitality of the owners.  ‘Da Nonna’ is an excellent place to stay with sufficient conveniences, good beds and a fully equipped kitchen. Dwelling around the garden and sitting in it, is really enjoyable.The surroundings offer plenty of possibilities to visit and many things to do, like walking, hiking, biking etc. Fresh bread in the morning, baked by the owners completed our stay. We certainly plan to come back.
Saskia and Hans, June 2014.

“A wonderful place for nature lovers”

We were welcomed most cordially by our hosts, who continued to look after us throughout our stay and gave us opportunities in the local area that we'd certainly not have had without their help.
Our little house was very fully equipped and we enjoyed cooking the very good local produce.
The calm and peace of the countryside is delightful after a busy life, with fireflies and nightingale in the evening and dappled sunlight and birdsong for breakfast. We divided our stay between walking locally and travelling further afield to the attractions of an area steeped in history and culture.

Liked best:Ambience, friendliness of hosts
Liked least:nothing
I recommend this vacation rental to my best friend? Yes!

The property was "as advertised". I recommend the location.
