Gorgeous loft with high ceilings, wooden interiors and panoramic terrace, pool

The apartment and the property is clearly a labor of love. Beatrice is the owner, hostess, manager, gardener, and tour guide. She is helpful, kind, and a wonderful person. The compound is close to the top of a hill, near Spoleto. It is 10 minutes removed from town. Spoleto is a prefect location to explore the hill towns of Umbria (Spello, Trevi, Montefalco, Assisi,) A car is most likely needed, unless you are into some very serious mountain biking or trail running (use a car). The gardens, the roses, the lavender, the fruit trees and olive trees are perfectly tended. It takes years of attentive gardening to create this. There is a BBQ next to the pool for your Florentine Steak. The pool is clean, clear and sunny. The apartment (we had the upstairs with the vaulted ceiling) is clean, quiet, and furnished in a classy décor. The AC works great. The kitchen is well stocked, the wi-fi is good. Spoleto is a well preserved hill town, which is not completely dependent on the tourist trade. It has all the services and restaurants, and is just a 5 minute drive down the hill. I recommend this location most highly! We were in Italy for a month in 8 locations, (3-4 days each). This is the one I remember. This one was perfect.

We absolutely loved our stay! We never wanted to leave. We actually extended our stay an extra day. The grounds are just gorgeous. The pool is Perfect. Beatrice is a true gem and an amazing host. Highly recommend!

Il Torre del Falco is my favourite place to be, ever, without exception! I have visited three times over the last year, staying in The Nest last summer, The Falconer last Autumn and most recently this summer in The Loft. Beatrice has created a heaven on earth here: the gardens and olive groves surrounding the property are so pretty and the views beyond are breathtakingly beautiful. During my recent visit, I watched Beatrice tending her roses over two days and, when she had finished, it was time to go back to the beginning because there are so many. It is clear that she is totally dedicated to maintaining her little slice of heaven for everyone to enjoy. Sometimes, she allows the two miniature ponies, Marguerita and Mathilde, to run amongst the olive trees on the upper slope and I can honestly say that I have felt as though I might have been transported to Narnia and that they must surely have little horns in the middle of their foreheads! It's just idyllic. I had such a lovely stay this time in The Loft. It occurred to me that Beatrice could have quite easily added another bedroom to this property - there is plenty of space - and no doubt this would generate a greater income, but I have learned since my first visit to Il Torre that she is a perfectionist and she understands the elements that make up the perfect holiday. She shows great thought in the way that she designs and organises the different properties, equipping each of them with high quality fittings and beautiful furnishings. The Loft is both spacious and airy (quite an achievement under the Umbrian sun!) with a very high ceiling - not just in the large living/dining area but also in the bedroom and the bathroom. There is a lovely covered loggia where you can escape the hottest part of the day to read or snooze. Add to this the high-spec bathroom, superbly equipped open-plan kitchen, fluffy towels and crisp white bed linen, and you feel as though you are in a five star boutique hotel. Each time I have visited, the properties have been spotlessly clean, the gardens well tended and the pool crystal clear. When I requested some large glasses (alas, I have become completely addicted to Campari Spritz whilst in Italy) they arrived the same day. Beatrice always reminds me to ask if there is anything that I need and she really means it: she wants to make her guests comfortable and happy. I cannot recommend Il Torre, and particularly The Loft, highly enough.

We had a delightful stay in Spoleto and Beatrice was very welcoming. The property is just a couple of kms out of the main town. The loft is gorgeous with a lovely terrace to relax and chill on with a nearby shared pool to cool off in and lounge alongside. A couple of reservations are no air con and the view is a little obscured with a tree. Otherwise would unconditionally recommend.

After climbing up a winding road just outside Spoleto, you enter an oasis that Beatrice has created for herself, her guests and her cats. A crystal clear swimming pool is surrounded by flowers and plants. Roses bloom everywhere on the property. A lighted path leads up to the loft, which is perfect for two people. The interior is spacious and nicely decorated. An expansive balcony is a great added space that extends the feel of serenity. Everthing is immaculate and modern. Like us, you might get the urge to stay in this idyllic setting, but Spoleto waits below with its charming neighborhoods. From a convenient parking garage you're carried into the heart of the old city. Don't miss Cuore e Sapore, one of our favorite restaurants on our entire trip. But access to day trips elsewhere in Umbria and Marche is easy if you can tear yourself away.
