Villa Santa Lucia is a wonderful home located in Bettona in the heart of the most beguiling part of Italy: Umbria. On one side you have a spectacular view towards Assisi and Monte Subasio while on the other the view is lost in the colours of the earth, the hills and the woods. This charming property, dating back to the 18th century, stands in a romantic and characteristic setting and the ochre-coloured structure offers its guests a warm welcoming atmosphere. The structure has large open spaces, two well-equipped kitchens and four elegant bedrooms, distributed on two floors, furnished in a classic style and finely finished with precious furnishings, wooden beams, floors in terracotta and wood, equipped with air conditioning and each with private bathroom.

Completing this idyllic picture is the fantastic swimming pool lined in dark grey porcelain stoneware and, close by, a badminton court, an area equipped for outdoor dining and cooking in good company and a greenhouse transformed into a lovely sitting room with a splendid view over the green rolling hills, studded with olive groves, fields of apple trees and vines, that frames the city of Assisi: the perfect setting to regenerate body and spirit, aided by the rhythms of nature, but also within easy reach of the most sought-after destinations in central Italy.
