[more]Amidst the peaceful hills on the northern shore of Lake Trasimeno lies the Villa La Rogaia, an old Umbrian country house with pool and garden. An ideal location for a family holiday, a honeymoon or a group holiday.
The surrounding landscape is a tapestry of olive groves, sheep pastures, woods, sunflower fields, punctuated with cypress and ancient stone oaks. Here, far away from your hectic everyday life you can relax amidst a natural setting. In the early spring, almond and peach blossoms paint the valley. The summer brings honey scented ginestra (broom). Warm august nights are filled with cicada concerts. The hills are laced with golden hues in the mild autumn, warmed by the scent of chestnut fires throughout the valleys.
Master craftsmen known for their artistic flair within an ancient tradition have restored all buildings at the Villa La Rogaia. Outstanding art works in marble and other stone works by the sculptor Wolfgang Sandt give each holiday apartment its own character. A large flower garden and sculpture park surround the house. Each apartment has a private terrace and tranquil garden to enjoy. A pool offers refreshment on hot summer days. There are miles of trails out our doorstep for hiking, mountain biking or horseback riding. The panoramic drive to Lago Trasimeno is as pleasant as the lake itself. Dotted with islands and castles, this lake is a beautiful place to go swimming, sailing and windsurfing. Many historically relevant towns are within easy driving distance from the villa such as Assisi, Perugia, Siena and Arezzo.
In the Villa La Rogaia you can enjoy a relaxing holiday or you can choose among our range of creative courses - from painting, sculpting and dancing to cooking. You can also book the entire house for a group (with breakfast and dinner on request). There is also a seminar room available and a fully equipped professional kitchen with dining hall for groups.
The house is situated amidst woods and meadows only four kilometres away from the quaint village of Castel Rigone, reached on an country road by car, mountain bike or foot. Those wanting to enjoy one of our creative courses or a week of hiking or biking may wish to arrive by train. Previous arrangement may be made for us to meet you upon arrival at Passignano Station.
