Beautiful Italian villa!!

We had a wonderful time staying with Beatrice, she was very helpful and even though the pool is shared it was very quiet and peaceful (except when our children were there!!). We stayed in the 2 bedroom villa and it was so private with a large garden area with beautiful views! Nice and close to Spoleto which is beautiful and we also did a day trip to Assisi. Our 5 year old and 3 year old loved all the cats and 2 little ponies! Thank you for a lovely stay. The Chivers Family xxx

A little slice of Italian heaven

Our family of 4 really enjoyed our stay here. Our house was clean & very comfortable. We enjoyed grilling & dining outside. My favorite part was the smell. The many roses & jasmine mixed with a wild yellow flower (I don’t recall what it was called) smelled delightful. Beatrice needs to create a candle for her guests to return home with!

Absolutely perfect in every way. Signora Panichi has created the ultimate oasis.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and highly recommend Torre del Falco. Everything was impeccable right down to the smallest detail. From the well appointed kitchen which was fully equipped for experimenting with classic italian cooking to the table and bed linens. The space was stylish and cosy and made for a tranquil and comfortable oasis after a day of sightseeing in the surrounding area. The villa is bordered by roses and rosemary which were in full bloom for my visit in May creating a beautiful fragrant atmosphere that complimented the stunning view of the Umbrian hills. Signora Panachi was a terrific host offering privacy and assistance when necessary. There was even a wood burning BBQ which added to the authentic experience of living the ultimate Umbrian lifestyle if even for a short while. This property had all the comforts including a beautiful pool and a private outdoor area where we could dine and curl up with a book. This is a truly wonderful property with beautiful apartments for a wonderful vacation experience. I would love to stay for a month or longer and look forward to returning. There is much to see in the surrounding area which makes it the perfect base to explore from and the nearby town of Spoletto is a true gem. Thank you Beatrice for creating this magical place. It is a labour of love and I am grateful to have experienced it.

Spoleto Villa heaven

This was the most divine location in Umbria very close to Spoleto. Beatrice was a magnificent host, the facilities were impeccable, and having a pool and other facilities such as a BBQ and courtyards truly made our stay special.

Wonderful stay near Spoleto

Our family (two adults, two children aged 7 and 8) enjoyed a wonderful stay at the Falconer apartment. It is just as described on the website with two cosy bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen that provides for everything you need, as well as a large private outdoor space with wonderful views over the valley. It is very clean and thoughtfully furnished with lots of attention to details. Beatrice is a very charming host with answers to any questions you might have, but who does not impose herself on her guests. The shared swimming pool is great, again with stunning views over the valley and surrounded by a lovey rose garden. The children particularly enjoyed the two little ponies and the numerous characterful cats that live on the property and add a particular peacefulness to the place. Spoleto can be reached on foot via a quiet downhill road through the wood, but going up the hill at the end of a full sightseeing day can be strenuous. However, there are taxis, as well as a good parking system in town. Spoleto is lovely, and you can spend hours wandering the labyrinth of roads, steps and squares. The cathedral as well as the church San Salvatore are stunning, and we would particularly recommend to wander the Giro dei Condotti, a round walk in the hills around Spoleto giving wonderful views to the town. Further afield we made great excursions to the Great Plain (Piano Grande), to the towns of Orvieto, Bevagna and Montefalco, as well as to lots of hidden mountain churches and abbeys. We would also highly recommend the 19 km walk between Spoleto and Sant'Anatolia di Narco on a disused mountain railway line. It leads through a few dark railway tunnels (up to 600m) which you should only tackle with a torch, but which add a huge excitement to the walk.

Torre del Falco is FABULOUS!

Our family of four had the pleasure of staying in The Falconer for 10 nights. The property was even more lovely than depicted in the photos. The scent of jasmine and Rose is everywhere. Each rental has a private seating and dining area. We dined at "home" several times outdoors under the jasmine covered pergola while gazing at the Umbrian countryside. We all enjoyed the beautiful pool. The mini horses and cats were a treat as well and kept our children very entertained. Beatrice is so incredibly kind and offered restaurant recommendations and assisted with train schedules. Spoleto is a gem. We found it to be a fantastic location for many adventures!! Our family agrees that it was the best holiday we've taken and I know that is due in large part to the perfect accommodations at Torre del Falco. I highly recommend this property. We hope to see Beatrice again! Other highlights of our trip: 1. truffle hunting with Wild Foods Umbria (experience of a lifetime); Marmore Falls; hot springs of Saturnia; Orvieto; and getting lost in Italy!

Charming property with stunning views

Our group of 12 stayed in the Tower and we were very happy with our choice. Staying in such a beautiful and unusual property certainly helped to make our holiday. The Tower is beautifully decorated and furnished and very well maintained - the photographs on the website are a true reflection of its condition. The main kitchen on the ground floor is large and very well equipped - there is everything you need and more. There's also a handy small kitchen on top floor which leads to the Terrace. The terrace has stunning views and was well used by us for both breakfast and sundowners. I noticed another review said the rooftop terrace couldn't be used because there was no shade - this has been rectified and the table is shaded. The property's grounds are truly beautiful - a lot of care and attention is obviously devoted to the garden area. The pool is large and great for lap swimming - great for us. There is a large outdoor table, a double BBQ and the garden is beautifully lit in the evening - wonderful for evening meals. The property is a five minutes (maybe less) drive from Spoleto. It is walkable, although as the property is on a hill, the road is winding and largely unlit - so the walk is less inviting in the peak of summer or at night. Spoleto itself is enchanting, as well as having all the facilities you need and there are just so many places to visit in the area that we will have to go back again to explore more. We also managed a trip to Rome, which only took an hour and a half by train from Spoleto. Beatrice, the owner of the property, was a great host. From our initial contact with her and throughout our stay she was both professional and very helpful. She answered all our initial queries promptly and during our stay she recommended and booked restaurants for us and had great suggestions for days out and things to do. She can also arrange a local cook to prepare meals for you - in the end we ran out of time to do this but would be on my list at another visit. Beatrice lives in a property in the grounds but was very discreet throughout our stay. We had a fabulous holiday thanks to Beatrice, her beautiful property and the surrounding area. It is definitely worth a return visit.

Mon séjour à "Torre del Falco

J'ai vécu une de mes plus belles vacances à Spoleto chez Beatrice. Le site est magnifique. Vous avez une vue époustouflante sur les montagnes. L'endroit très tranquille, vous n'entendez rien. Les lieux sont très bien entretenu et propre. L'accueuil est des plus chaleureux. Beatrice est sur place pour s'assurer que tout soit parfait mais ne vous importune aucunement. Nous avons resté dans le Falconner qui était parfait pour nous 3. Deux chambres avec salles de bain complètes dans chacunes. Terrasse privée avec BBQ au bois. Les déjeuners devant la montagne étaient tellement agréables ! Le village est à proximité et peu même se marcher. Il y a 2 supermarchés où vous trouvez de tout. Il y a beaucoup à visiter à Spoleto. J'ai adoré "Torre del Falco". Je vous le recommande fortement !

Fabulous apartment, great pool.

We stayed in the two-bedroom apartment. It was fabulous, spotlessly clean, very well maintained and a lovely private patio to sit outside. The pool was amazing, really big with lots of pool furniture to laze about. A first class property; I would recommend highly. The friendly owner lives on site with sweet cats.

Stunning!

Torre del Falco is even more beautiful than the photos. We stayed in the Falconer for one week, it is a beautiful property which has clearly been thoughtfully furnished and decorated to a very high and luxurious standard, we loved the private garden which have stunning views across the vally. The grounds are perfectly manicured, beautiful scented flowers and lots of jasmine, the pool was a delight with various seating and sun-beds. Beatrice was very welcoming and helpful during our stay and we will definitely be returning. If you're thinking of booking this, don't hesitate, it's fabulous.

Stupendous location, charming accommodation

I was researching the vacation rental my family (myself, husband, 5 month old son and my father) would enjoy for our late Spring holiday in Umbria. Although I diligently scanned numerous options all around the region and selected a "top 5" based on our needs & wishes, this listing immediately and consistently stood out, and after I checked off the prioritized details (choice of location - conveniently close to the jewel of a city Spoleto, yet as tranquil as a remote 'castello'; decor -for infant friendliness; swimming pool -salt water!) the Falconer was a clear winner. Then, getting to correspond and meet our lovely hostess, Beatrice, our experience continued to unfold smoothly and delightfully. Her abundant garden and living space amenities were charming and just luxe enough to make us feel how special our time there was, without any pretention. She kindly made a baby crib available to us, and provided wonderful recommendations for local sights, cuisine and travel logistics. The only misfortune was the unseasonably cold weather that kept us from having more occasions to enjoy the incredible view, across the lush, green valley and make use of the al fresco dining set up and _gorgeous_ pool, but we remarked on it every time we exited our little cottage (beneath the tower that sleeps 12) and especially upon arriving home. We would go back in a heartbeat, especially if we could add family and friends and take over the property, with hot summer weather : ) We would recommend this listing, for families with children, or for romantic getaways, or for more aged travelers, really anyone who has the good sense to want to explore Umbria!

Scenic Comfort in Umbria

The beautiful, relaxing Falconer was everything we hoped for, and more. Neat, clean, comfortable accommodations; well-equipped kitchen; nicely landscaped grounds and breathtaking view. Beatrice's on-sight but unobtrusive presence was most helpful and welcome. There were four of us in our unit (mother, father, daughter and son-in-law), occupying two bedrooms with two adjacent full baths, allowing ample privacy for all. The facility was truly magnificent ! We would return in a heartbeat.

Staying at The Falconer

Staying with Bea at The Falconer was a magical experience! This is a very special holiday retreat. The apartment is stylish and spotlessly clean with the most beautiful terrace filled with fragrance from the Stephanosis and the abundance of roses. The views from the terrace are spectacular; we enjoyed sitting by the barbecue with a glass of wine watching the sunset over the far hills. The pool is wonderful - surrounded by more rose gardens. When we returned home we immediately went to buy roses for our garden inspired by Bea! Spoleto is an interesting historical town very worth exploring and the local region is full of old hill-top towns equal to any in Tuscany. The National Park is very accessible; it is remote and tranquil and pretty with surprising historical churches and monasteries tucked away off the beaten track. Staying with Bea and her family of cats is like staying with an old friend who has nothing but your own enjoyment in mind. Rest at the pool; enjoy local restaurants; wander further afield even to Rome on the train and then return to the friendly support of your host. A holiday destination not to be missed !!

A stunning property in a beautiful location.

The property was beautifully clean and maintained and the grounds were tended with great care by Bea, the lovely owner. I would definitely recommend it to friends. The salt water pool was much nicer than the usual chlorine treated pools. It was an excellent base to explore Umbria's beautiful countryside, towns and villages. There is plenty to do with rafting, wine tasting, walking, riding as well as enjoying the fabulous food and wine of the area in the many friendly, well priced, local restaurants. A great holiday!

Spectacular Villa

We cannot recommend The Falconer villa highly enough. Beatrice was a fantastic host and she has furnished all three villas (the Nest, the Tower and the Falconer) to a very high standard. The surrounding gardens are beautifully kept and our teeenage children loved the swimming pool. Spoleto is a beautiful medieval town with many shops and restaurants. Go to 'Biondi', a shop with great choice of pasta, truffle oil, biscuits and much more to take home as gifts. Located in the Umbrian hills you should expect to walk up hill quite a lot! Beatrice was so helpful in advising on restaurants and places to visit. We visited Rome by train which is only an hour and a half from Spoleto. Parking bays (the ones marked White) at the station were free. Assisi is also well worth a visit. The scenery from the villa is spectacular, it truly is a great place to really relax and unwind. We cooked on the bbq frequently and the supermarkets are close by. We used the Conad mainly. Thank you again Beatrice for making our summer holiday in Spoleto so enjoyable. We will never forget it. Hope you will visit us in England one day! xx

Heaven on Earth

The drive up to this beautiful place is stunning, but on arrival it took our breath away by its beauty and tranquility. The extensive gardens surrounding the fantastic pool (salt water) are gorgeous and stocked with roses, lavenders and jasmine as well as numerous trees and pergola to provide shade from the sun. There is plenty of seating for all the guests as well as extremely comfortable sunbeds and sunshades. We stayed in the Falconer which had it's own private garden with stunning views across the valley, a lovely table and chairs under a pergola for alfresco dining as well as sun loungers and chairs, bbq....in fact everything we needed. The Falconer itself is so pretty and very spacious with a lovely lounge which is extremely comfortable opening on to a wonderful italian kitchen. The bedrooms (1 twin and 1 double) are beautifully decorated with gorgeous bedding and furnishings as well as having their own ensuite bathrooms with super soft towels. Everything was beautifully clean and sparkling and all the lilttle touches show that Beatrice (the owner) has a real flair for interior design....nothing looked out of place. Beatrice is a lovely lady who is so helpful and friendly, she is also an animal lover (as are we) and we were delighted to meet her beautiful cats and her gorgeous little shetland ponies (Matilde and Marguerite), in fact they helped to make our holiday complete. Nothing is too much trouble for Beatrice and she is so kind and caring. The walk down to Spoleto is breathtaking with glorious views along the way. This is mainly downhill, so I would say that you have to be quite fit for the walk back up....good for burning off the calories of all the delicious food we consumed during our stay. It is an easy car drive down and we found it easy to park at the bottom and walk into Spoleto which is a fascinating town/city with stunning cathedral, castle, architecture, shops, cafes, and restaurants....there really is something for everyone. Staying at the Falconer is a perfect for exploring this part of beautiful Umbria being within easy reach of Perugia and Assisi to name but a few places. Everywhere we stopped felt like something out of a film set. I can honestly say that staying here is like heaven on earth and we enjoyed it so much that we are going back this year. So all I can say is ciao for now and here's to July 2013.....Torre del Falco.....Falconer here we come!

A Wonderful Time at "The Falconer"

In mid May we stayed at the Falconer 2 bedroom villa and had a very enjoyable stay. The villa is immaculate, with 2 en suite rooms, and very comfortable with plenty of facilities for home cooking. Each morning we enjoyed breakfast outside and views of the valley below in the tranquil surrondings of the rose filled garden. The pool was cleaned daily and is perfect for cooling off on hot afternoons. The villa is home to several cats and a beautiful minitaure pony called Matilde - she will greet you in her paddock on your return each evening! Spoletto is a lovely town with several quality restaurants and a perfect base to explore the surrounding Umbrian countryside. Your host Beatrice will deal with any queries and provide good advice for local interests.Visiting Umbria? the Falconer is a perfect place to stay!
