The interiors are stylish - but in no way can they compete with the breathtaking magnificence of Umbria and Tuscany just outside on the balconies!

You always remember the first time.

In the restaurants of Castiglione del Lago - @ristorante_caffelatino this is how they roll! And roll and roll! Handmade pici is a family affair!

At sunset, a blanket of golden light descends that wraps the world in magical reflection and deep sun-baked tans. The bricks of Umbria bask as shadows wind through the valleys and all the light that was contained there, slowly oozes through the hilltops. Finally, in one last harrah of the day, the whole earth glows, just glows for moments like a hallelujah

A magic potion.

From early morning to almost midnight, this little place serves the best coffee, the meanest aperitivi, and the yummiest pizza (handmade!). Whether you want a quiet escape with a book by @arosielifeinitaly… or to have a chat with the villagers, Bar Ruota is the place - figuratively and literally- right in the heart of Gioiella 🍕❤️🥂

Not sure which I like more - the bedroom… or the view from the bedroom?! 🤣

After yesterday’s excitement, it was time to get grounded! My annual attempt at Spring planting (AKA ‘How many trees can u get in a Fiat”) was fortified by a fine little Sardinian beer and - what else - pizza! 💪🏼 🌳 🍻. Hopefully those clouds will rain on my olive tree parade!!

Lake Trasimeno was a spectacular shade of blue today from banks of @agriturismo_dogana where @arosielifeinitaly has planned a romantic wedding in the olive grove! So excited to be officiating and share the love

I love everything about the colours in this room… but especially the way they match the rooves outside! Mellow yellow 😁

When bringing friends for the very first time to Gioiella, past mercurial lakes reflecting the moody sky. Through medieval villages built on Etruscan tombs and decorated by the Renaissance.

Randomly (on Google maps - as you do) I just discovered these fabulous thermal pools! Only twenty minutes from the villa! I can’t believe it. Can’t wait to get back there to take in the waters 💦 👙☀️@piscine_termali_theia 🏊🏼‍♀️ 💙 The night swimming looks like fun too! ⭐️ 🌙

Boy did we deserve this wee break on the top floor balcony at Prosecco o’clock! Getting the Villa ready for SUMMERTIME - after a forced 2 year travel gap - was no easy feat! But with my chief colour co-ordinator, design queen and maestra of organisation extraordinaire @life_is_just_peachey, and new neighbour (who feels like old friend) @tabbykerwin - AKA ‘Mistress of the water blaster’ - it was down to the wire but we did it!! Girl power rocks 🙌🏼🥂

A balcony with a view…

And this was just for openers!

First review of the season ❤️🙌🏼🥂

Happy Easter everyone!

It was a long time coming, this walk through deep green and blooming Spring. It was worth the wait!
