terra san raffaele is a charming stone farmhouse situated just below città della pieve, in the rich umbrian countryside framed in a picturesque setting, close to tuscany and part of a farm estate that produces an excellent certified organic olive oil Welcoming you on your arrival will be a well-kept park, in which attention has been paid to every detail and overlooked by the imposing walls of the historic town centre, with a private pool and a vegetable garden inspired by the "hortus conclusus”, the typical form of medieval garden related mainly to monasteries and convents. The same attention to detail can be found in the strong character of the rooms with their bright colours, the fusion between furniture of the '50s and '60s, reinterpreted in a modern key, and antique furniture of the 19th and early 20th centuries, traditional instruments given new life such as a dressing table made from a sewing machine, ethnic furnishings and refined coverings in original terracotta and, in one of the bathrooms, with antique majolica from a Neopolitan collection. Warm and cosy are the living room and kitchen with fireplace, both with French windows opening out onto the porch and pergola covered with fragrant wisteria, and the splendid bedrooms looking out over the generous landscape. In an annex next to the main house lives the caretakers, very nice and discreet in charge of the house cleaning and garden and pool maintenance who are available for any needs and requirements of the guests but in full respect of their privacy.Just 10 minutes away, nearby Citta della Pieve is the birthplace of one of the most important painters of the Italian Renaissance, Pietro Vannucci known as "Il Perugino", and still conserves some of his most important works. More generally, the location of the house is perfect for visits to the most important tourist localities of central Italy; train stations and highways will take you to Orvieto, Cortona, Assisi, Montepulciano, Arezzo, Perugia and Siena.
the emma villas concierge team can be reached for any emergencies, or further information you may require during your stay All useful telephone numbers will be sent together with your booking documents.

Leaving the porch, furnished with table and chairs, and the pergola which together take up one entire side of the house and from where you can enjoy the view of Monte Cetona, you continue to the lovely round gazebo with rattan sofas and then on to the lively outdoor dining area with brick-built barbecue from where you can admire Città della Pieve in all its splendour. Dining outdoors, reading a good book, sipping a cool apéritif or sampling the seasonal vegetables from the organic garden (available to guests upon request) and the cherries, plums and apples from the small orchard surrounded by olive trees, oaks, cypresses, delicate roses, the purple flowers of the agapanthus, the aroma of sage, rosemary, lavender and wisteria - all take on a different flavour in a garden that includes among its amenities a gravel parking area close to the villa, a five-a-side soccer field in grass and two playgrounds for children, one with gym for adults as well. Within the property there are also the chicken coop, rabbit hutch and in a secluded corner of the garden, about 50 m away from the house, a small enclosure hosts the owners' four small sized dogs that will not disturb guests in any way during their stay.
