Property Summary
Nestled in the open countryside of Civitella Marittima, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Cottage Violapo is a charming and intimate vacation rental that offers a true retreat from the rhythms of everyday life. Set between two gentle hills and surrounded by a lush private park, this beautifully restored cottage invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature. Completely renovated at the end of 2022, and further enhanced with a major roof intervention featuring ventilation and insulation, the property combines rustic Tuscan character with modern comfort. Finishing touches crafted from simple, authentic materials — terracotta floors, stone-framed fireplace, and carefully chosen upholstery — create a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels entirely at home in its natural setting. The property benefits from high-speed Internet WiFi connectivity, private parking, and an EV charging station for electric vehicle owners. The expansive yard of approximately 3,300 square metres of garden, enriched by flowering shrubs, fruit trees, oaks, and roses, extends into a further 10,000 square metres of flat open terrain, offering an extraordinary sense of space and freedom. At the heart of the outdoor experience is the non-heated rectangular swimming pool, available to guests from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October, complemented by a dedicated wellness area that makes Cottage Violapo a destination in its own right.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Cottage Violapo are thoughtfully designed to allow you to make the most of the surrounding natural environment at every hour of the day. The garden, a verdant expanse of lawn stretching across 3,300 square metres and framed by flowering shrubs, fruit trees, oaks, and roses, invites you to walk barefoot, spread a rug on the grass, or simply sit and absorb the tranquillity of the Tuscan countryside. A gazebo positioned next to the cottage provides a shaded and furnished outdoor dining area, complete with table and chairs, a barbecue, and a wood oven — the perfect setting for long summer dinners under a sky filled with stars, accompanied by the scent of burning wood and the sound of crickets. The exclusive wellness area is undoubtedly one of the most distinctive features of the property. The non-heated rectangular swimming pool, built in 2020, measures 8 by 6 metres with a depth ranging from 10 centimetres to 1.5 metres, and is equipped with night lighting. Adjacent to the pool, a 50 square metre solarium — partly lawn and partly paved — is furnished with sunbeds, umbrellas, and a gazebo with table and chairs ideal for breakfast. The pool is available from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October. Completing the wellness offering is a Jacuzzi tub and a characteristic wooden sauna built in a barrel-like structure with a panoramic front window. The sauna interior is crafted from red alder and powered by a wood stove, with essential oils and honey available to accompany the ritual of a traditional Finnish sauna experience. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled on the eastern slope of the tuff cliff that embraces Orvieto, one of Italy's most captivating art cities, Podere Torre delle Sorgenti is a truly extraordinary vacation rental born from the meticulous restoration of a historic 16th-century dovecote tower, a project entrusted to architect Martin Stubenrauch. The result is a residence of absolute originality, where centuries of history meet refined modern design in a setting of rare natural beauty. Orvieto itself, famously described as "the tall, strange city," appears from a distance as though suspended in the sky, and from the property you need only raise your eyes to take in the imposing walls of this fascinating city with nearly three thousand years of history. Inside, the interiors are distinguished by light-coloured wooden ceilings with iron beams, parquet and fine terracotta flooring, and a striking glass staircase connecting the 2 floors. The property is surrounded by a generous yard of 1.5 hectares, thoughtfully landscaped across terraces of Etruscan origin and filled with flowering plants, colourful roses, evergreen bushes, fruit trees, and a large vegetable garden with fragrant herbs. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, ensuring you remain connected during your stay. A dedicated 3-car parking area, accessible through an automatic gate, is conveniently located at the entrance to the villa, offering secure and effortless arrival.

The outdoor spaces of Podere Torre delle Sorgenti are as carefully considered as the interiors, offering a seamless transition between the natural landscape and the comforts of the property. In front of the large openable windows on the ground floor, 2 distinct areas for outdoor dining have been set up, each equipped with umbrellas, tables, and chairs, complemented by a built-in barbecue and a convenient sink. On the first floor, a charming outdoor living area shaded by a pergola features a sofa and coffee table, offering a breathtaking view towards the tuff cliff and the Fortezza Albornoz of Orvieto, the perfect spot to savour a glass of local wine in pleasant company. The 1.5-hectare garden extends over several terraces of Etruscan origin, following the natural slope of the land and embellished with flowering plants, colourful roses, evergreen bushes, fruit trees, and a large vegetable garden with fragrant herbs located just a few metres from the first-floor entrance. Please note that photographs of the garden were taken in spring, so the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The beautiful rectangular swimming pool, which is for the exclusive use of guests and is non-heated, occupies a terrace at a lower level than the house, approximately 25 metres away and reached via a flight of 21 steps. Set in an extremely secluded position overlooking the surrounding woodland, the pool was obtained from a historic agricultural fountain and measures 3.5 x 5.5 metres with a constant depth of 1.20 metres. It features chlorine purification, a metal ladder for water access, and is lined with grey osmotic cement to confer a natural aesthetic, with a border of grey stone in the typical "basaltina di Bagnoregio" style, while the solarium area is paved in terracotta. Both internal and external lighting are available, and the solarium is equipped with sunbeds, deck chairs, an umbrella, and a solar shower. A natural spring runs alongside the pool, and the gentle, continuous sound of flowing water adds a deeply relaxing atmosphere to the space. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October.
