About this property

Villa Miavana is an authentic, farmhouse style villa, set within its immaculate grounds with no detail overlooked for guests every comfort. For a traditional, rustic Italian hideaway, fusing both privacy and a full range of staff services, guests will encounter at Villa Miavana, a world of discreet glamour and inherently Umbrian flavour!

Full of rustic charm, the original stone buildings are tastefully restored, perched on a sublime hilltop position up a pretty flower-lined path amid fruit trees and olive groves. Arriving at Villa Miavana, guests will feel as if they have entered a rustic haven of preserved Umbrian beauty, finessed with every contemporary touch.

Immaculately executed for ultimate restoration, complete with its spa comprising stone set outdoor jacuzzi, hot tub, Turkish bath and tropical shower, staff are available on request to provide massage treatments.

With wonderful views across rolling Umbrian countryside, this villa comes into its own when the light softens and guests can marvel at stunning pink sunsets across the hills as they enjoy a glass of local wine and a chef prepared gourmet meal! This home is designed for guests to escape from the strains of modern living truly.

Each of the bedrooms has unique features, design quirks and characterful touches. There are five bedrooms, four of which are doubles (one with two additional fold out beds), and one single bedroom, as well as a second lounge with a sofa-bed, meaning Villa Miavana is ideal for a large family group or extended family.

The bedrooms are full of individual style and charm, with solid timber used with an original and playful design touch, for example, the stand-alone timber bathtub, or fantastic staircase leading to mezzanine. This is a home with ample eccentricities and surprising touches. The bedrooms are cosy, infused with exposed brick fireplaces and a blend of local raw materials such as porcelain, timber and stone within the most sumptuous of finishes.

The living space at Villa Miavana is well proportioned, again with the characteristic use of local raw materials, while all the essential modern touches are present! Ideal for friends and groups, the living and dining space are part of a single area while being divided by an impressive stone arch, leading to the kitchen which is every inch the rustic Italian farmhouse kitchen.

Dining al fresco is a stylish affair at Villa Miavana, with a gorgeous dappled stone courtyard and dining furniture surrounded by the fragrant gardens, bursting with vibrant colour.

Original architecture blends with contemporary design panache at Villa Miavana, to provide an exceptional get-away. All appliances are top of the range, making self-catering easy, or, when guests would like a night off, the villa’s chef is on hand to prepare a gourmet meal - what a treat!

Villa Miavana is set in a hilly, rural part of Umbria, surrounded by unspoilt woodland with beautiful panoramic views. Alviano is a nature reserve and is known for its spectacular natural beauty.

The region is scattered with pretty, picturesque Umbrian villages, while the area has a rich cultural heritage. From thermal pools to medieval cathedrals and olive oil museum, Umbria has an intriguing amount of history to discover.

Both Rome and Florence are accessible within a day trip, while the closest towns of interest would be Orvieto, the old town which is a fascinating series of winding streets, piazzas and a colourful weekly market.

History lovers will be spoilt - from the first century Roman amphitheatres to the twelfth-century duomos, to the fourteenth-century hilltop fortresses,  the glut of remnants from the medieval and Bronze Age that punctuate the region is impressive.

  • Olivia C.

    Wonderful place, with attention to the smallest details. An ideal place to relax and enjoy wonderful days. The owners are ideal, available and never intrusive. We will definitely be back!!!

  • Marco P.

    Just returned from this paradise! The location is simply unique, framed by the greenery of the surrounding hill and a boundless panorama. The interior, with attention to every aspect, is waiting to be discovered, from the rooms, each different from the other, to the comfortable and spotlessly clean wellness centre. Nothing that isn't a pleasant surprise. We will definitely be back!

  • Eleonora C.

    Absolute tranquility and fairytale atmosphere. The house is located on top of a hill in a wonderful location with breathtaking views. Attention to every little detail, with taste, originality, color and lots of imagination! Very clean, equipped with everything you need for your stay (cooking, cleaning, etc.), and many services for entertaining and pampering yourself (games room, swimming pool, Turkish bath, etc.). Once again thanks and congratulations to the owners Franco and Aukse, very kind, always available and very discreet. A great discovery, we will definitely be back!
