The villa is located at the top of Narni, a typical medieval Umbrian village, which has gained fame in recent years thanks to the Chronicles of Narnia, as it inspired the writer CS Lewis. The property is located in the old town of Narni, close to the imposing fortress and overlooks the old town of Narni. From the garden and rooms you can enjoy the spectacular view of the steep valleys that surround the village. The building is an old monastery that has been renovated with great care and use of traditional building materials, but is also equipped with modern conveniences such as a swimming pool, sauna, underfloor heating and air conditioning. The furniture is a combination of modern and old style! The old walls enclose the entire garden. The garden consists of two parts. On the upper part you will find the entrance gate, parking for 3-4 cars (2 of which are also covered), garden with lounge set in the shade of some trees and, with a beautiful view over the roofs of the village, a gazebo with dining table where summer evenings be spent. There is also a BBQ available for cooking. In front of the house entrance there is also a sheltered courtyard with tables/chairs for 10 people for outdoor dining, perfect for breakfast and lunch. A staircase leads to the lower part of the garden where the swimming pool (6 by 3 metres, depth 1.20 metres), sauna and a natural pool dug into the rock with cold water rising directly from the rocks. The swimming pool is equipped with sun loungers and next to it is a lawn. The house can accommodate up to 11 people and has 4 bedrooms (9 sleeping places) and a 2-person sofa bed on the mezzanine in the living room.
The whole house is on the ground floor with 2-3 septs between the kitchen/dining room and two more from the living room to the bedrooms. On the ground floor there is a large living room with fireplace, dining table/chairs for 8 people and a well-equipped kitchen. On the same floor an office corner with desk and chair. Behind this studio, a staircase leads to a mezzanine, with a glass floor, where there is a double sofa bed. Going down a few steps, we find a living room with a sofa for 6 people and a flat screen TV and a complete bathroom with shower/WC. The sleeping area has 4 bedrooms. The master bedroom with a double bed, single bed, wardrobe and en-suite bathroom with shower, bathtub. There is a second bedroom with a double bed and en-suite shower room and wardrobe. The last two double rooms (both with double bed) share a bathroom with shower. There is also a laundry room with washing machine. Cot and high chair available on request. There are supermarkets, bakers/pastry shops, bars, takeaway pizzas 200-400 meters from the property. Large supermarket at 2.7 km. The restaurant Il Gattamelata is at 350 meters and La gallina free at 500 meters. More restaurants available in the Narni area. At the beginning of May every year there is a medieval event in the town and during a few weeks it is also possible to eat in 3 typical taverns. If you want to come without a car, there is a train station in Narni Scalo (the modern town) and you can take a bus from there to the old town (there is a bus stop 300 meters from the property). If you want to visit Rome and Florence, we recommend that you go by train.
In the area you can live many experiences in contact with the unspoilt nature of Umbria, such as hiking, mountain biking and horse riding. This area is a great base to explore many villages in Umbria. Todi, Spoleto, Orvieto, Amelia, Montefalco.
