Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Casale delle Farfalle are a celebration of the Umbrian landscape and the art of al fresco living. The garden of approximately 1,000 square meters surrounds the main house and features a generous lawn beautifully enhanced with Mediterranean plants, mature trees, and a variety of seasonal flowers. It is worth noting that photographs of the property were taken in spring, meaning that the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival. The estate is laid out across two gently sloping levels, descending from the main house towards the annex, situated at 230 meters above sea level.

On the side of the garden facing the pool, a charming pergola serves as the heart of outdoor entertaining, furnished with a dining table, chairs, a masonry barbecue, and a sink, making it the ideal setting for leisurely meals in the open air. Adjacent to this area, a comfortable relaxation space invites guests to unwind in a truly scenic environment.

The above-ground swimming pool is positioned at the same level as the main house, approximately 15 meters away, and is accessible from two sides. Rectangular in shape and measuring 10 x 5 meters with a constant depth of 1.30 meters, the non-heated pool features a PVC lining, internal access steps, and integrated lighting, with water purification managed through a chlorine system. A beautifully appointed lawn solarium surrounds the pool, equipped with sunbeds, a gazebo, a sofa, armchairs, and 2 umbrellas, all set against a backdrop of sweeping valley views. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.
