Ferienhaus Casanova di Mesola in Umbrien, Gubbio / IT – Italy

Holiday home Casanova di Mesola

Where Umbria meets Tuscany and Le Marche, Casanova di Mesola is situated in a secluded location on a hilltop with pan­o­ramic views — a hideaway that com­bines nature, design and comfort. Gubbio, one of the best-pre­served medieval towns in Italy, can be reached in 25 minutes, Perugia in 40 minutes and Assisi in 50 minutes.

Dating back to the 18th century, the Umbrian country house was exten­sively reno­vated in 2010 and refur­bished in 2022. Old wooden beamed cei­lings made of chestnut wood and natural stone walls meet a modern con­crete floor and clear, white sur­faces, tra­di­tional wooden fur­niture con­trasts with design classics.

The house is set on two levels on the hillside: on the lower level, a large kitchen with a cooking island, a dining room and a living room with an open fire­place and gallery cor­ridor merge seam­lessly into one another. There is also a large bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a marble bathtub on this level. Large patio doors provide access to the garden from all rooms and let the sunshine in.

On the upper floor there is a spa­cious master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a further bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a studio and yoga room with 6 metre high cei­lings and a large terrace that opens onto a fore­court with plane trees.

The pro­perty is sur­rounded by 13 hec­tares of land. The garden extends over various levels with a pan­o­ramic terrace, various seating areas under trees and a covered pergola with a pizza oven. The 15 metre long infinity pool offers sweeping views over the Umbrian hills.

    We had a won­derful week in Umbria in Simon and Ans’ beau­tiful house and garden! It was the perfect place to relax and retank — A very big thank you to our hosts.

    David Jackson sagt:

    Wir ver­brachten als 7 köpfige Familie einen wun­der­schönen und sehr ruhigen und ent­spannten Urlaub im Casanova di Mesola. Es fehlt an nichts in diesem unver­gleichlich schönen Ambiente. Das Haus wurde mit viel Bedacht umgebaut und wun­der­schön ein­ge­richtet. Wer sich für seinen Urlaub im Casanova ent­scheidet wird mit himm­li­scher Ruhe, gran­dioser Aus­sicht in die Umbri­schen Berge und nicht nur mit dem tollen Pool belohnt. Das Backen der eigenen Pizza im dafür vor­ge­sehen Holzofen ist ein Muss und steigert das Urlaubs­gefühl noch weiter. Ob im Haus oder im weit­läu­figen Garten, es lassen sich immer wieder neue Per­spek­tiven und Aus­blicke finden. Trotz aller Abge­schie­denheit bietet diese Urlaubs­lo­kation für den natur­ver­bun­denen Urlauber alles was man sich wünscht. Ein großes Dan­ke­schön an Ans & Simon, dass sie dieses tolle Haus an uns ver­mietet haben.

    Markus Horn sagt:

    Den Besitzern Simon und Ans ist es gelungen, ein altes, umbri­sches Landhaus sehr behutsam und mit hoch­wer­tigsten Mate­rialien wieder zum Leben zu erwecken und ein extrem kom­for­tables und ästhe­ti­sches Feri­en­do­mizil zu schaffen. Jede Ecke des Hauses ist perfekt durch­dacht und bietet mit seiner gross­zü­gigen Raum­auf­teilung sowohl kom­mu­ni­kative “Inseln” als auch genug Rück­zugs­mög­lich­keiten für stille Ent­spannung. Wer genauer hin­sieht, erkennt Mate­rialien und Ein­rich­tungs­de­tails aus Indien, die sich spie­le­risch und absolut har­mo­nisch in das Gesamtbild inte­grieren.
    Der Garten wie auch das gesamte, sehr weit­läufige Grund­stück von Casanova di Mesola, das relativ iso­liert liegt, ist kom­plett aber fast unmerklich umzäunt, wodurch es einen sicheren Spiel­be­reicht für Kinder garan­tiert. Über­haupt ist das gesamte Haus mit beson­derem Augenmerk auf Familien geplant worden. Der Blick in die Land­schaft von der Ter­rasse oder vom Son­nendeck aus ist einfach wun­dervoll und der wohl­tem­pe­rierte Infinity-Pool macht das Urlaubs­gefühl perfekt!
