Once through the impressive estate gates you follow a lavender-clumped drive to a lavishly renovated collection of apartments – all perched on a pine-forested ridge on a 124-acre estate. Take care not to let the astonishing view distract you from appreciating what spreads out before you: a seductive pool prefacing the forest and a split-level garden brimming with flowers and bustling with butterflies, birds and bees. Potted lime trees, outsized urns, a herb garden, an olive grove, ducks, donkeys and stabled horses: every inch is perfectly groomed. An unusually sumptuous medieval theme runs through these three immaculately renovated apartments: opulently draped four-posters, tapestries and medieval style paintings, heavy curtains with medieval seals hanging at arched windows of leaded glass; the odd stained-glass piece or fresco; and arched porticos leading to covered patios and terraces. Kitchens are country-homely and modern and Federica, your generous hostess, will organise trips to bucolic markets for supplies and recommend restaurants, ten-minutes down the windy roads, in Spoleto.
