... Cortona, and Città della Pieve. Rome is an hour and a half away by train from Perugia's Fontivegge station, as is Florence. There are 2 golf courses near the country-house: the golf club of S. Sabina, 6 kilometers away, and the Golf club Lamborghini, at 20 kilometers. A supermarket, bakery and newsstand are only a few minutes away by car.
What characterizes the Antica Posta di Vallelunga, besides nature and the green that colors the entire valley, is without doubt the elegance of its furnishings, the refinement and taste for the antique which the owners have put into the restoration of the country-house and its furnishing, in order to re-create a family atmosphere in all seven of the country-house apartments and to satisfy those guests who wish to enjoy both the quiet of country life and the refinement of an exclusive facility.
Each apartment is completely independent, and the kitchens are equipped with electric ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers (the kitchen of grapes apartment has electric oven and fridge), and all that a family might need. Some of the apartments also offer the use of a fireplace. All the apartments have linen for the bedrooms, pillows, blankets and linen for the bathroom. In all the kitchens there are plates, glasses, cutlery, pots, pans and all the necessary in order to pass the vacations without problems. The structure, surrounded by the green of the countryside, boasts a private garden of one hectare, two large parking lots and a 16 x 18.6-metre swimming pool. The owners have preserved various original features of the apartments such as arches, wooden beams, the old stones and all else that confers on the structure an aura of the past, an effort that can be noted both inside and outside the complex, where harmony has also been preserved between the surrounding vegetation and the elegant exterior structure. It is possible to rent the entire complex, which with its 10 double rooms, 2 single rooms and 9 bathrooms can host up to 22 people, or 23 with the use of two sofa-beds.
THE APARTMENTS
The 7 apartments are distributed between 2 outbuildings and the main apartment. The main complex is composed on the ground floor of a Mansion-House of 247 square meters (6 pax) with a 50 sq m. porch, and on the first floor of 3 apartments: the Chestnut (2 pax), with a private terrace, the Pomegranate-tree (3+1 pax) and the Grapes (2 pax).
THE MANSION-HOUSE (6 pax) presents an elegant entranceway, a large kitchen with all of the modern conveniences as well as a fireplace and a 70 sq m living room with a fireplace, study and dining room. The sleeping area is instead made up of three large rooms: a double bedroom and two twin bedrooms, one of which can be used as a double bedroom, a bathroom with shower and bathtub, and another bathroom with shower.
In the CASTAGNO (The Chestnut 2 pax) we enter a large warm living room with a kitchen equipped with electric oven, refrigerator and dishwasher. The sleeping area includes a bathroom with shower, a large double bedroom and a private terrace that looks onto the garden.
The MELOGRANO (The Pomegranate-tree 3+1 pax), the largest of the three apartments on the first floor, is composed of a living room with kitchen equipped with electric oven, dishwasher and refrigerator, and a large loft where one can relax with a book or watch television. In the sleeping area we find a single bedroom, a large double bedroom and a bathroom with shower.
The last apartment in the main unit, the UVA (The Grapes 2 pax), is composed of a living room, a kitchen with an electric oven and refrigerator, a double room with a small loft and a bathroom with shower. The first floor of the main complex offers a common hall featuring a large fireplace, original of the ancient structure, where guests can linger to read or talk together, or enjoy the sun on the terrace accessed from this room.

The second outbuilding is comprised of two apartments: the MELO (The Apple-tree 3 pax) and the Peach-blossom (2 pax), which can be linked. The first apartment, the Apple-tree, is composed of a large living room with fireplace and kitchen (complete with refrigerator, electric oven and dishwasher), and by the sleeping area, made up of a bathroom with shower, a small bedroom and a double bedroom.

SHOW AND EVENTS
May
Assisi - Calendimaggio
The festival of Calendimaggio is without doubt the most important event of the year for the inhabitants of Assisi. The origins of the festival lie far in the past, but the way it is celebrated in Assisi is entirely new and original. The festival took place for the first time in 1927: singers representing the different town /chapels/ united under the direction of band masters to sing serenades, taking as their theme the customs of times past.www.calendimaggiodiassisi.it
Gubbio - La festa dei Ceri
The Festival of the Candles is one of the most thrilling and unique traditions in Europe and takes place in the city of Gubbio on the 15th of May every year.The Ceri are 3 decorated wooden structures in the shape of octagonal prisms. Weighing in at approximately four hundred kilograms, they are triumphantly carried on the backs of the /candle-carriers/ in honor of Saint Ubaldo, patron of the city. The Festival originated in the very remote past: some scholars link them to pagan ceremonies in honor of the Umbrian or Roman divinities (Cerfus or Ceres). Other scholars link them to celebrations following Gubbio's victory against 11 allied cities.www.ceri.it
SPELLO - L'infiorata
The /flower decorations/ event has its roots in the remote past. A few centuries ago this original and artistic initiative was transformed into an event in honor of the /Corpus domini/, in which the path taken by the religious procession was adorned with flowers. The inhabitants of Spello, however, were not entirely satisfied by this modest homage, and at the beginning of the last century began to confer a particular characteristic on their infiorata which, with the passing of the years, has evolved into a true form of art. While previously loose flowers were strewn over the Roman and medieval paving, it became customary to use only petals and evergreen leaves, creating beautiful carpets of Spanish broom and wild fennel embellished with cornflowers, daisies, velvety petals and roses.www.comune.spello.pg.it/menuinfiorata.htm
June
FOLIGNO - La giostra della QuintanaLike other knightly tournaments, watching the joust of the Quintana is obligatory for the inhabitants of Foligno and for those visiting Umbria.

BEVAGNA - Le Gaite
A faithful commemoration of the middle ages that will definitely thrill the visitor. Along the streets and in the most atmospheric corners of medieval Bevagna, the people of the four Gaite, a Lombard appellation, compete in decking out taverns, markets and artisan workshops in medieval style. During the final two days, the event is enriched by an actual medieval market whose unique products give it significant cultural value.www.comune.bevagna.pg.it
