We stayed here for three nights, in order to visit the lake of Trasimento with its surrounding old and interesting villages. The room with bathroom we had was very clean, breakfast was vast (you need to boil the eggs yourself to make sure you get the correct quality - I made a mistake with this), the owner is very friendly...

Giancarlo and Ursula do everything to make you feel at home. Podere Pescia is a very peaceful place. In the evenings you can here the nightingale ! On the other hand you ar near the touristic places of Umbria and Tuscany but the crowd doesn't bother you. There's large breakfast-buffet with everything you can imagine. Every room has its own...

located right next to the charming hill town of Castiglione del Lago, Podere Pescia is a meticulously, lovingly restored farmhouse that simply oozes Italian hospitality. Giancarlo, who has restored many properties in the area, clearly loves his home and bringing old buildings back to life -- he does do side work as a realtor, but mainly because his extensive knowledge...

Quaint, warm, friendly, and authentic! Giancarlo shows you what an old Italian country house can look and feel like with a vision and personal touches. He personalizes each room with antiques and pictures of how the country house used to look like. We stayed in La Loggia. You can appreciate the room and grounds more after looking at it. The... More

Once an abandoned and long neglected old farmhouse, Podere Pescia has been rescued and beautifully and meticulously restored to its former glory by Giancarlo Caponeri and his family. Podere Pescia has 5 beautifully and comfortably appointed rooms, each with its own personality. We stayed in the La Casetta since we had our daughter along and needed the extra bed (sofa... More
