What a fantastic place to share your holidays... the setup of La Grande Bellezza makes it the perfect holiday home for two families sharing or, indeed, a larger family. The main house consists of two parts, each with its own separate entrance, living room and kitchen, and there’s also an additional studio for 2 people. In total, this private holiday home in Umbria comfortably accommodates 9 + 2 persons.

Dutch owners, Herman and Tessa, fell in love with La Grande Belleza after years of searching…the authentic Italian property is surrounded by its own olive grove and a beautiful garden complete with fig trees, apricots and grapes, and of course, a superb swimming pool. The owners have lovingly transformed the old ‘casale’ into an delightful holiday home that now boasts delightful finishing touches and all that you could possibly need for a truly unforgettable stay, including two Cannondale mountain bikes, a table tennis table and even a billiards room.

La Grande Belleza is more than amply equipped for food lovers too - the holiday home benefits from a pasta machine, a wood-burning pizza oven, a gas BBQ and a quality SMEG hob. Al fresco dining can be enjoyed around the large table located on the pretty covered terrace. La Grande Bellezza is nestled in a tranquil, yet central spot, just a short distance to the E45, which connects the larger Umbrian towns.

Meet the people behind the place: La Grande Bellezza & Dolomiti Dreams

During their search for a special place under the Italian sun, Herman and his partner Tessa started their first project ten years ago, La Grande Bellezza in Umbria. What began as an adventurous renovation grew into a warm family villa full of character and memories. Later came Dolomiti Dreams, a stylish apartment high in the mountains of northern Italy, completely different yet sharing the same soul. Two unique places that, despite their contrasts, have one thing in common: the deep love of their owners for Italy, for its landscapes, its craftsmanship, its beauty, and its dolce far niente.
