subject: "rental In Umbria - The Autumn Travel Destination" [print this page] Increasingly, travelers are choosing to find a rental in Umbria rather than a hotel - spending time in historical palazzos and villas that capture the enchanting essence of the province. Tucked away just north of Lazio, which houses Italy's capital, Rome, Umbria, Italy's smallest region shines in the autumn sun. With stunning views of the Apennine Mountains to the east, and the Tiber valley basin to the south, Umbria is rich in natural beauty, from the lush and verdant vineyards, which produce Umbria's famous wines, among them the fragrant Sangrantino, to the snow-capped mountain views. But why approach such natural beauty from the often sterile perspective of a hotel? One such rental is La Fontana a stunning villa located in Amelia - the oldest continuously inhabited town in the Italian peninsula. For as little as $1500 a week, travelers can stay in a four-bedroom Villa with use of swimming pool, lush gardens, full modern amenities, and breathtaking vistas of the countryside below. It is still warm enough under the Umbrian sun to enjoy the luxury of outdoor life in Italy! Luxury Property Rental in Umbria Italy: Amelia is one of the Umbrian towns most worth a visit, for the cultural and nature-loving traveler alike. History buffs are likely to be enthralled by the Amelia Museum, which reflects the long - indeed, record-breaking - history of the town, with such exhibits as a bronze statue of the famous Roman general Germanicus, as well as by the theatre, constructed in the late Renaissance by the same architect who created Venice's stored "La Fenice." Or walk outside the town to see the Annunziata monastery. If nature is your thing, consider taking walks around the stunning countryside and winding mountain paths- or sampling some of the region's culinary specialties, such as black truffles and seasonal olives ripe for picking.
La Fontana not only offers easy access to all of these opportunities, but also provides a luxurious stay with the amenities of a hotel but the creative individuality of an authentic Umbrian palazzo. From Murano glass chandeliers in the living and dining rooms, to working fireplaces la Fontana is rich in historical detail. But it does not lack modern amenities amongst which includes wireless internet, Sony LCD cable TV, and three stereo systems for when a day lounging around the house sounds more your fancy than a hike in the autumn sun.
