You can have the happy routine of getting up super early, taking a tour, and then collapsing in the pool mid-afternoon.

You can shop in the typical local markets for fresh produce and enjoy preparing meals to eat with family and friends under the pergola. The local cuisine is excellent and you must try the Puntabella wine bar/trattoria, 400 meters down the road. The surrounding area is one of the most beautiful in central Italy and still off the beaten track of mass tourism. In addition to an equipped beach on Lake Trasimeno, a couple of kilometers from Fontanicchio, there are many towns and villages with historical interest, artistic value and gastronomic delights. Within the Umbrian border you will find Perugia, whose summer jazz festival is world famous, Spoleto, Assisi and Todi, rich in medieval charm. Within the Tuscan border are Cortona, Montepulciano, Montalcino, Siena and Florence, all within easy reach of this Italy holiday villa.
