L’Antica Vetreria: Right inside a village with pool and views!

by Anne September 30, 2019
written by Anne September 30, 2019

Experience life in an Umbrian medieval village with privacy, panoramic views and pool: all in your own luxury villa or self-catering apartment. Many terraces for outdoor dining or lazing around the pool!  Just steps to main piazza with restaurants, shops, cafe for your morning cappuccino or walk to the bakery for fresh pastries in the morning. All you need is within this pristine and historic glassmaking village of Piegaro.

Dine in a palazzo, Ca De Principi, the former home of the Prince of Piegaro and eat your fill of seafood, fish and pizza on the terrace of Mondo Antico di Juni.  Located in Umbria on the border of Tuscany you can visit most of the historic sights of both regions within an hour.  Living in our village of Piegaro you can experience the authentic rhythms of daily Italian life.  Magnificant sunsets from your terrace overlooking the pool or sit in the main piazza each evening watching “la dolce vita”.

Each week we take our guests on a complimentary vineyard tour and tasting of local wines and olive oil at the unique solar-powered and organic Cantina Monte Vibiano Vecchio.

We live in Piegaro and are available to help you plan your itineraries, visit little-known gems that are our favorites or book a cooking class in Umbrian cuisine.  We have taken a vast abandoned glass works and faithfully restored it into a villa and four self-contained apartments.  One of the most historic properties in Umbria has become a dream destination for guests.

Many happy guests have returned to become regulars in our welcoming village.  No other accommodation offers such privacy, stunning panoramic views and pool right inside a village with all amenities!
