Casale la Caprara, near Lake Trasimeno

Local ‘pietra serena’ stone, chestnut wood, walls hand painted in soft, war, colours, combine with comfortable country furnishings and pretty modern bathrooms with attractive decorative finishes and a well-equipped kitchen with grey marble work surfaces. All the bedrooms have their own individual colour schemes and are of a good size with excellent en suite facilities and some rooms on the first floor have lake views. The games room with pool table is an ideal 'den' for teenagers or playroom.

The long pool with shaded area, and chaning room is set into the wide grassy terraces with olive trees below the property with ample space for play.

In warmer months, guests will gather under the magnificent pergola covered eating area facing the lake, a pizza oven and barbecue. From here and from the house and the pool the views of Lake Trasimeno and beyond to Castiglione del Lago, Monte Cetona and Monte Amiata are quite magical.
