" GAY FRIENDLY VILLA
HALFWAY BETWEEN FLORENCE & ROME "

The Stone House Retreat is a country house overlooking the beautiful valley of "Bagno" and the medieval village of Parrano in Umbria, with our closest neighbour being the famous Tuscany (Italy), that accommodates mainly the gay and lesbian community.

Sitting on three hectares of natural grassland, incorporating an olive grove and fruit trees, it is surrounded by unspoiled woodland with spectacular views towards the picturesque castle of Parrano (dating back around 1000 years).

Positioned perfectly for the must-see destinations of Rome and Florence, we are situated within 10km of major motorways and train stations, however still maintaining the seclusion and tranquility of a totally rural environment. Within less than a 70 km radius, we have such impressive cities as Siena, Perugia, Assisi, Arezzo, Orvieto, Cetona, Montepulciano, Todi, and Spoleto, just to name a few. Also within this area are important archaeological sites from the pre-roman (Etruscan) period, as well as the natural beauty of Monte Amiata in Tuscany, lake Bolsena and lake Trasimeno. For example you may wish to visit places such as Sorano, Sovana, Pitigliano to marvel at this history and beauty with your own eyes. Should you wish to have an escorted tour to such places then we would be happy to arrange everything for you.

For our guests we have three independent suites all on ground level and each contains a double bedroom of generous proportion, private bathroom, kitchenette, dining and sitting areas with double sofa beds in two of these apartments.

Outside, each suite enjoys private access via its own alfresco dining area.

For the colder months, each suite is centrally heated.

You may prefer to stay:

in the “Lavanda” (Lavender) suite (50 sqm), being the largest has views of the gardens and of the valley to the south and west;
in the “Girasole” (Sunflower) suite (45 sqm), which is located in the oldest part of the house and boasts views of the gardens to the east and also fantastic sunsets to the west;
in the "Papavero" (Poppy) studio (40 sqm) an independent studio with views of the valley to the south and a spectacular outlook to the pool.

All the apartments tastefully decorated in gentle tones of the corresponding flowers that have become synonymous with this area through spring and summer.
