Details
Description
We have a small farm with small organic vegetable garden, olive orchard and fruit trees.
This is a traditional stone farmhouse set high in the green hills of Umbria, some 10km (6 miles) Northeast of Assisi. There is a swimming pool located a little way above the house in a marvellously tranquil position with panoramic views over the park of Mount Subasio.
Around the house is a small farm of 18 hectares (44 acres) – roughly one third cultivated, one third pasture, and one third wooded with planted trees.
We have some apartments that we let out during the summer but the help we need from Workawayers will be with our home and garden, and won't be helping with the holiday rental accommodation (we have external staff that help with the preparation of the apartments).
