We've been home 1 day after our 3 week Tuscany and Umbria vacation and are already planning our return to Casale San Bartolomeo! Our week there was a highlight of our vacation. Gabriele and Anna were wonderful hosts. After touring around all day it was so relaxing to arrive back to the countryside in the late afternoon, sit on the... More

Casale San Bartolomeo is set in a beautiful location with rolling hills and amazing foliage. It's the perfect hideaway. It is conveniently located near many beautiful and historic places. The room we stayed in was spacious, with a comfortable bed and nice bathroom. The overall decor is rustic and homey. It's very tastefully appointed. The best part of our stay... More

Our two week stay at Casale San Bartolomeo, near Marsciano, in Umbria was delightful for many reasons. First and foremost was our host Gabriele, who is warm and welcoming as well as an expert tour guide and professional chef – we highly recommend arranging to have dinner at the Casale to experience delicious Italian cuisine made with market fresh ingredients...

We found Casale San Bartolomeo through “Owners Direct” and then checked it out further on “Trip Advisor”. Communications with Gabriele were prompt and made very easy by his fluency in many languages, including English. Traveling with another couple for two weeks in the Umbria area, we all wanted a quiet retreat to return to each day and this casale worked... More

We enjoyed the farmhouse experience and the owners could not have been more helpful. We would ask about places to see and they always had ideas that are not... More

My wife and I recently stayed at the Casale San Bartolomeo. From the day when we contacted the owner, Gabriele, we were impressed with his prompt responses, helpful travel information, and a willingness to go above and beyond. The Casale has beautiful grounds, and is located on a quiet lot accessed by a long driveway. From our window, we saw... More

When we FINALLY found this place (off the beaten path is an understatement), I knew we were onto something as the chic, stylish Anna bounds out of her SUV ahead of us carrying a huge bunch of fresh flowers for our room. Every element of this lovely stone farmhouse was well-designed; we enjoyed the pool after a flight and long... More

Within an hour's drive to many beautiful and historical hill towns of Umbria, Casale San Bartlomeo is ideally located off a country road outside of Marciano, accessible by a long private drive way. Unlike its neighboring province of Tuscany (Cortona is about an hour away), Umbria is a less traveled destination, thus much quieter. It is also the only land... More
