Le Balze Charming Apartment with private veranda, 10 min from Perugia Centre

The apartment is big, light-filled and clean. The furniture is very comfortable and the pool is huge and even has a water feature. The grounds are beautiful, with seating areas everywhere. But the best experience was our hostess, Valentina. She's warm and welcoming and so accessible and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place.

Four of us, two adults and two children, stayed in this wonderful apartment for ten days. The apartment is very clean, fully furnished and offers all the comfort you need. The landlord couple is very polite, they are very happy to help and very quick with all questions you have and otherwise keep in the background. In the large park-like garden you can relax or swim a few laps in the pool. Definitely a recommendation if you want to relax and enjoy beauty!! Thank you for this great holiday and see you next time!

The property was as listed and very clean. Check-in was easy. The directions received from the property manager to locate the property were detailed and easy to follow. Valentina also provided a document containing various restaurants and points of interest in the area. She was readily available to help with any questions. It was too cold to take advantage of the pool during our stay. The location was perfect to access the highway to travel throughout the region.

We would like to return in summer, perhaps with family. Too cool this time for the pool but it is so inviting! The property is an oasis of green and calm, 5-8 minutes from Perugia center. The apartment is clean, with comfortable beds, good lighting options, lovely living/dining space and a well-stocked kitchen. The owners are good communicators and very friendly (use Valentina’s suggestion list!). We used this base to explore a different Umbrian, Marches or Tuscan town each day. Urbino, Gobbio, Assisi...Can’t wait to come back.

We had a wonderful two week stay in this property with our two teenage boys. The apartment is spacious and spotlessly clean. There is plenty of outside space and seating and the pool is wonderful. Most of the time we used the outside areas we had them to ourselves even though the other apartments were also occupied. The apartment also has it's own outdoor cooking and eating area. Valentina and her husband were so friendly and helpful and responded straight away if we had any queries. The location is perfect for exploring Umbria and Tuscany and we visited many of the hill towns as well as frequent trips into Perugia using the bus service which stops outside the house. Highlights of the holiday for us were trips to Sienna and Cortona and a day on lake Trasimeno on a motorboat. We would definitely stay here again.

We were made to feel very welcome at Le Balze and felt instantly at home in the apartment and the beautiful surrounding gardens. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable and accommodated the five of us easily. We enjoyed the use of a nice patio and well equipped BBQ outside but also used the covered table area next to the pool in the evening. The pool was immaculate and there were plenty of sun loungers and shady areas to find. Valentina was there at hand to help when we needed it and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. The property is a couple of minutes drive from Perugia which we found made a great central base to visit lots of beautiful hill top cities such as Assissi, Spello and Oliveto. If you are looking for a relaxing break tucked away in a quiet and homely setting yet within easy reach of lots of beautiful Umbrian destinations then we would recommend Le Balze.

We stayed at Il Melograno with our two kids in August 2018. The location is great - 5/10 minute drive to the town centre. Yet the villa is super green, secluded and peaceful. The apartment is stunning, with lots of natural light and beautiful furniture - a mix of brand new (kitchen) and antiques (bedrooms). The patio/gazebo outside has a fully functioning open air kitchen with sink, stove, BBQ and a big dining table, which was so nice to have in the summer to make the most of the beautiful Italian weather. We will be coming back! :)

Relaxing week in Perugia with our 2 sons (7&10). The pool and facilities were fabulous. The other guests were families and it was easy to share the pool and grounds. The area is amazing and a trip to Assisi is definitely recommended. Thank you Valentina for our wonderful stay x

We stayed in The Rose for 14 days. Excellent house and a beautiful big garden, with a lot of privacy. The house is comfortable and very clean. Plenty of nice plates, glasses etc. We had a nice contact with Valentina and we liked the sweet dogs. Very quiet, but close to Perugia and a lot of other places. So overall, we can recommend the place very much.

I loved staying for the night, 6th July, in this wonderful place. The Melograno appartment is most beautifully furnished and equipped; everywhere is immaculate and spotlessly clean. The airy, spacious and very comfortable rooms would be perfect for a family stay. Outside there are lovely gardens and a pool making it ideal for children. There is an outside kitchen and dining area with armchairs making it the perfect spot for outdoor living during warm weather. I can't recomend a stay here highly enough. It is a dream of a place. Valentina is an excellent hostess as she is always on hand to assist but never intrusive.
