Santa Illuminata, an Abbey of rare beauty with a history dating back to the 11th century AD, stands in a beautiful area enveloped in an almost magical atmosphere on one of the most beautiful hills facing Todi and Massa Martana, characterised by the unmistakable appearance of the Umbrian landscape and surrounded by an estate of about 37 hectares. The Complex of Santa Illuminata develops around a rectangular courtyard whose northwest side is occupied by the consecrated Church. Clad externally and internally in antique exposed stone and recently restored under the guidance of the Department of Environmental, Architectural, Artistic and Historical Heritage of Umbria. The interior has been designed in a style that has blended old and modern beautifully together, combining high quality décor with contemporary furnishings, with chestnut-wood beams for the ceilings, high quality terracotta floors and air conditioning in all the rooms. In the garden are numerous plants, tall trees and typical flowers of the area. The private pool is in a very panoramic position facing towards Collevalenza. The tranquillity of the place, interrupted only by the noises of the countryside, and its colours depicted by the alternation of day and night and by the changing of the seasons: all this will fill your stay with unforgettable emotions. Santa Illuminata offers the possibility of organizing events and receptions in its spacious halls and outdoor areas. The internal courtyard, framed by the Church and the Abbey, offers a space of rare charm, ideal for outdoor receptions. It is also perfect for family reunions with children and groups of friends who want to spend their holidays together but, at the same time, safeguard their privacy. The Abbey, located a few kilometres from Todi and Massa Martana, has the advantage of being in the heart of an area of culture, art and food and wine tourism. It is the perfect departure point for excursions to Orvieto, Perugia, Assisi, Spoleto, the nearby Santuario dell'Amore Misericordioso (Shrine of Merciful Love) in Collevalenza and also to Florence and Rome, thanks to its proximity to the E45 highway linking Umbria, Tuscany and Lazio. Services and shops for basic needs, open on Sundays, can be found in Todi and Ponte Rio just 10 minutes' drive away. Please Note: when the property is rented in this solution no other guests will be present on site. The villa borders on the house of the owners who are very kind and discreet and available for any needs of the guests while respecting their privacy and their exclusive areas.
