VILLA IBIS

VILLA IBIS - LA BRUNA - PERUGIA

4 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Immersed in the peaceful Umbrian countryside characterised by gentle hills and green plains, this exclusive four-bedroom property offers complete privacy and is ideally located to explore the region’s cultural highlights and natural wonders. Perfectly positioned with panoramic views, Villa Ibis represents the ultimate base for day trips to Umbria’s most beautiful towns and provides a unique opportunity to admire its iconic landscape while soaking up the region’s incredibly rich historical and cultural heritage.

Villa Ibis is just a stone’s throw from Perugia, Umbria’s largest and most cosmopolitan city. Its historic centre features a maze of cobbled alleys, arched stairways, and piazzas framed by churches and palazzi. Reminders of its vibrant past include ancient arches, mediaeval basilicas, and Renaissance frescoes by Perugino and Raphael. Perugia also knows how to party: university students energise the nightlife and fill café terraces, while music lovers flock to Umbria Jazz, one of Europe’s top jazz festivals, in July.

The villa is also close to Gubbio, a charming town nestled on the slopes of Mount Ingino, known for its rich history and culture. Approaching the town, the ruins of a 1st-century Roman theatre greet visitors, while a walk through its steep, winding streets leads to the stunning Piazza Grande, the town’s beautiful central square that also houses the imposing 14th-century Palazzo dei Consoli. Experience Gubbio’s cultural heritage at La Festa dei Ceri, one of Italy’s oldest folklore festivals.

In less than an hour by car, you can reach Assisi, best known as the birthplace of Saint Francis. With its plains spreading below and Monte Subasio towering above, Assisi’s dusk glow can lift pilgrims’ spirits. At this hour, when the town is shrouded in saintly silence, the spirit of Saint Francis is most palpable. However, you do not have to be religious to appreciate Assisi’s beauty and enjoy its historic centre and UNESCO-listed Basilica, home to one of Italy’s most celebrated artistic masterpieces.

In just one hour by car, you can reach Todi. Perched on a hilltop above the winding River Tiber, this charming town feels like a fairytale. Narrow, cobbled streets meander through its hilly terrain, leading to mediaeval monuments like Palazzo del Popolo, one of Italy’s oldest public buildings. Largely untouched by tourism, Todi offers a slice of peaceful Umbrian life. While there, try local delicacies like slow-cooked pigeon flavoured with herbs and Grechetto di Todi, a dry white wine from the area.

Villa Ibis is 31 km from Perugia-Umbria San Francesco d’Assisi International Airport, 162 km from Florence Amerigo Vespucci International Airport, and 230 km from Leonardo da Vinci International Airport. Perugia is 20 km from the villa, Gubbio is 35 km, Deruta is 45 km, Assisi is 47 km, Spello is 52 km, Foligno is 58 km, Todi is 70 km, and Spoleto is 84 km.
