Friends' Trip to the Italian Countryside
Our group of five women thoroughly enjoyed our two-week stay at Miralaghi. We were in the main house (old hunting lodge) with 4-bedrooms, 3 baths, huge living space, kitchen, carport, and private pool. Miralaghi is a unique property, located between Paciano and Moiano, high up on a hillside. It is very peaceful, quiet and provides lovely hiking trails on the huge, 750 acre property. It's a perfect retreat at the end of a day of visiting nearby hill towns. Our host, Mausi, was a delight and so helpful in making our daily plans for activities. Her responsiveness to our needs was immediate. When we asked for a "baking pan" (apparently not a term used much in Italian), we were greeted by an assortment of new dishes the very next day. Same thing when it came to glasses, a coffee maker, etc. We only had to ask once, and anything we needed quickly appeared. If you are looking for a beautiful location, in a quiet and peaceful surrounding in the countryside, you will not be disappointed by this property.

Beautiful, quiet and remote setting
It was a great stay - the house was older but clean. The road to get to the house is about a 3km dirt road that takes some time getting up and down; bring an SUV. The host and surrounding towns were wonderful. It's a bit of a drive to the larger towns like Montepulciano, Piensa, Orvieto, etc... but there are some very nice smaller towns a 15-20 min drive away (Paciano, Chiusi, Moiano). Overall it was a bit remote for us and a little older than we expected, but the views are beautiful and the host fantastic and helpful.

Relaxing countryside villa
Miralaghi was the highlight of our trip! After separately traveling throughout other parts of Italy, the villa was the perfect size for us to meet up with another small family, even with two small babies. The villa had everything, including several amenities that I have never seen in other Italian rentals (a washer AND a dryer! a dishwasher!) that helped make our visit so relaxing. There are several local restaurants and towns nearby that were a joy to visit, including La Loggetta, where I had one of the best meals of my entire trip ... and enjoyed a panoramic view of the Tuscan countryside while we were at it. The wine towns are easily accessible, and we were able to visit Montepulchiano and Montechello in the same day. More importantly, we were very interested in participating in a truffle hunt in the region, but the only ones we could find were hours away and very expensive. After asking Maria (who goes by Mausi) if she had any suggestions on a tour for us, she promptly informed us that her very own property sports a plethora of truffles and that she would organize a hunt for us! We met Stefano, her hunting guard, and Pigna - an adorable wire-haired terrier named after the Tuscan pine cone, and had a very successful hunt, filled with information about the property, truffles, Italy in general, you name it. Afterward, Mausi arranged for one of her long-time friends to cook a traditional Tuscan meal with us using all the truffles we had found ... featuring wild boar that was hunted from nearby (talk about locally sourced!), in addition to pasta, bruschetta, dessert, wine, prosciutto, and more. The meal was so delicious, and we learned so much about traditional Tuscan cuisine in the process. If you have a desire for your trip, all you have to do is ask ... Mausi will make it happen herself, or she will find someone who can. She helped make our stay everything we could have imagined. Thank you Mausi, and thanks to Stefano, Agnese and Pigna!! We wish we could have stayed twice as long!

Rustic mountaintop
Miralaghi is a rustic setting in a spacious home with 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. The pool was warm and welcoming after our journey from Camogli. Our hostess, Mausi, was ever so attentive and quick to respond to any need or question. If you want a view from the top, this is your place.

Peace, fun and tranquility in Umbria!
Our (grown-up) family was hugely looking forward to our week in Villa Miralaghi. We were not disappointed! The family voted the pool the best we have ever had and we played endless games of (sort-of) water polo! The villa was quirky, a former hunting lodge, and was spacious. We all felt we could get our own space if we wanted it, with the communal areas plenty big enough for us all to be comfortable. Plenty of outside tables and chairs and sunbeds for all, surrounded by lovely flowers and trees. Oh, and not to forget the hammock! The jacuzzi was brilliant and much used as the light went each evening, except for the moon, of course! There were so many dishes and plates and cups and mugs - brilliant. Mausi welcomed us and gave us a tour. She was contactable throughout our stay if we had needed anything and was always making suggestions and giving tips and ideas. The Villa is well placed for visits to many places. We visited Montepulciano and Assisi in p[articular. We had a great time! Thank you, Mausi. Thank you, Villa Miralaghi. :)

A lovely property in Umbrian countryside- just as described!
It is vital to read and follow Maria’s instruction for getting to the Villa- the google route takes one through a rather hair-raising journey as we discovered. The pool seem to be heated the first day but not the rest of the trip- although it did not deter the children from going swimming! We also enjoyed Maria’s recommendations for dining out! The surrounding cities are a delight to visit! We ate far too much during our stay. Maria is an amazing host- she really did make us feel welcome! Thanks for the lovely holiday- it was especially special for my mum given it was her birthday during the trip!

Beautiful secluded villa on top of a mountain top overlooking beautiful Umbria
Our party of 6 enjoyed 11 days in this charming villa. It had many amenities to suit everyone of all ages. These included a swimming pool, hot tub, pool table, ping pong, as well as many other sports and hiking trails to vistas overlooking the Umbria countryside. Maria Luisa is a fabulous hostess, anxious to provide for her guest each and every need. She is very knowledgeable about the area and had wonderful recommendations for places to see, to dine, and buy wine etc. It’s a bit hard to find the villa the first time unplug the GPS follow closely Maria Luisa’s directions which will get you there without hassle. Definitely recommend Villa Miralaghi.

A lovely villa with extensive facilities, set in a rural and isolated mountain area.
Miralaghi is set near the top of a mountain in a secluded peaceful nature area, with views of the surrounding Umbrian countryside. It is a spacious property with good sized bedrooms and bathrooms (although these could be improved) and a functional kitchen with good range of equipment, dishwasher, china, cutlery and utensils. The open fire and logs were well used due to some cold and wet weather. We made use of the heated private pool a few times (when it was sunny), and made use of the hot tub and boules pitch. The kids loved completing the exercise trail which provided some more wonderful views of the area and the bird hive tower was fun. Maria Luisa is a lovely, friendly and a very knowledgeable host. She provided information to help get us out and explore the local area (by car which is essential) and Paciano and Panicale were our first places to visit. Maria popped by occasionally to check if things were ok and provided advice on where to go in Rome and Florence (Firenze) which, while wet was, still pretty. The road up to the villa from the directions provided is a track, not tarmac, but the VW Passat managed it in the dry and wet with no problem. From the Villa it is possible to drive up to the top and down the other side towards Paciano, however this is not the faint hearted as the road surface is a little worse and is much steeper and bendy, with no crash barriers and only a couple of passing points for any traffic coming the opposite way. However, the view down towards Lake Trasimeno is spectacular and worth the effort! It is also the quickest route to the Lake, Panicale, Paciano and countryside. Recommend Lillo Tatini in Panicale see TripAdvisor. We'd recommend a trip to Cortona, north of the Lake (about 45 min drive) as it is another amazing hilltop town. Just north of Cortona (from the main road) is a top class restaurant; IL Falconiere. We had a truly amazing food experience with service during torrential rain and thunderstorm. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use the Spa (maybe next time!). Orvieto (about 1 hour south) is a good day out for the family where there is lots to see including an incredible Duomo and the ancient Well is something else.

Ideal retreat
The property is certainly big enough but could do with some TLC in places, this does not affect your stay. The pool is lovely and well maintained it is very easy to sit and relax there all day. There is a lovely trail or two around the grounds with splendid views. Maria is very knowledgeable on the area and will give you any advice if you wish to explore.

Miralaghi and Maria gave us the most wonderful holiday in a beautiful environment - we loved it
Our experience was wonderful, we spent 16 nights The property and its surroundings were perfect for us. Wild flowers, trees and rural seclusion. The swimming pool was good clean and spotless and well looked after, the Hot tub was also enjoyed. We had breakfast in the sun in garden at the rear of the property most mornings. The evenings could be a little chilly in which case we lit the log fire for a while. The house was full of character with everything we needed. Maria Luisa provided us with such full and useful information and her stories of how Miralaghi had evolved over the years, made in all the more enjoyable. It is in such a good area for exploring, we were so impressed with this area of Umbria. The people were so friendly and helpful. all of Maria's recommendations for food and restaurants were faultless - they were all of such a high standard we were spoilt for choice. We visited all of the local towns Chuisi, Paciano, Panicale, Castigione del Lago...........the list is endless and all had interesting things to offer, so much history. We went as far as Assisi in one direction and to Castiglione della Pescaia over on the Med. Coast. in the other- all very do-able. I would come back like a shot......just trying to work out how and when!!

Un angolo di paradiso a portata di mano...
Abbiamo trascorso a Miralaghi 4 giorni davvero speciali! Sotto il profilo umano: Maria Luisa si è dimostrata attenta, carina, gentile, disponibile... Sotto il profilo abitativo: un casale d'altri tempi accogliente e familiare Sotto il profilo ambientale: colline a perdita d'occhio, pace e tranquillità (fondamentali per rigenerarsi), profumi autunnali che vanno dall'odore di resina degli alberi appena tagliati, ai profumi del sottobosco passando per il caldo bruciare della legna nel camino... Assolutamente il luogo ideale per rigenerarsi, per dare un taglio alla frenetica attività quotidiana. Consigliamo la proprietà al 100% e speriamo di poterci tornare quanto prima.

Abschalten und entspannen
Wir haben es sehr genossen als Familie völlig fern ab von allem anderen die Zeit zusammen zu haben. Insbesondere der Pool wurde von uns extrem genutzt. Mit Maria hatten wir eine tolle Gastgeberin, die sich super schnell um alles gekümmert hat. An die lange Einfahrt (10-15 Minuten Fahrt auf dem Grundstück über nicht asphaltierten weg)mussten wir uns etwas gewöhnen. Da wir dadurch eher Großeinkäufe gemacht haben und nicht viel unterwegs waren, hat es aber nicht gestört. Die Einrichtung ist mehr als ausreichend. Es fehlt an nichts. Der Pool ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber wie gesagt: wir waren sehr viel Zeit mit den Kindern dort drin. Also für Leute, die Ruhe suchen und dabei alle Annehmlichkeiten genossen möchten, ist dieser Ort absolut geeignet! Die lange Einfahrt in dieses tolle Gebiet ist

Prachtig rustig gelegen vakantiehuis met zeer veel faciliteiten
Klassieke villa van wat oudere datum met klassieke inrichting; ligt zeer rustig in de bossen en heuvels; auto is nodig. Winkels en restaurants op 15 minuten rijden. Prachtig zwembad en verwarmd. Er zijn in de villa zeer veel faciliteiten (o.a. biljart) Host is heel vriendelijk en geeft veel informatie, problemen worden snel opgelost. We hebben een prachtige vakantie gehad en zijn tot rust gekomen; natuurlijk is de omgeving met alle mooie steden en natuurschoon fantastisch

Huset växte för varje dag. Första dagen var vi lite chockade. Huset ligger rätt långt bort och man kör efter små grusvägar upp mot berget. Till en början kändes det som att vi hamnat vid vägs ände men när vi installerat oss och sovit ut i de sköna sängarna så uppskattade vi huset och läget mer och mer. Värdinnan var i kontakt med oss varje dag via WhatsApp, gav oss tips på ställen att besöka och restauranger att äta på. Var det några problem så försökte hon lösa det. Kändes tryggt. Vaktmästaren Livio fanns på plats varje dag och hjälpte och visade hur allt fungerade, en klippa. Den privata polen var mycket uppskattad och även biljardbordet och pingisbordet. Så sammanfattningen av vår resa blev helt perfekt. Det var en närhet till allt trots avskildheten.

Un posto meraviglioso con viste magnifiche e passeggiate nel verde.
Villa Miralaghi e` il luogo ideale per passsare del tempo con la famiglia e ricaricarsi. La villa era una vecchia tenuta di caccia, ma ha tutti i confort necessari. La vera bellezza e` il podere che circonda la villa; 300 ettari con percorsi nel verde e passeggiate che portano a viste indimenticabili. Mausi e` gentilissima e disponibilissima, con utili consigli su gite da fare e posti per mangiare. Siamo stati molto bene.

Erholsamer Urlaub mitten in der Natur
Wer ein ruhiges Objekt zur Erholung mitten in der Natur sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Wir haben 2 sehr schöne Wochen in der Villa Miralaghi verbracht. Unsere Vermieterin Mausi war jederzeit ansprechbar und hat bei auftretenden Problemen/Fragen sofort geholfen und aktiv immer hinterfragt, ob alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit ist. Auf unseren Wunsch, hat sie eine Massage im Haus organisiert. Das Haus ist auch im Hochsommer innen angenehm temperiert. Wir können die Villa Miralaghi mit gutem Gewissen weiterempfehlen.

Sehr schöne Ferien auf dem Berg
Das Haus ist charmant und die Ausstattung für Familien mit kleinen Kindern mehr als zufriedenstellend. Nur der Herd ist für 8 Personen wirklich etwas unterdimensioniert. Maria-Louisa ist sehr bemüht, gibt einem Ausflugstipps und schaut immer wieder nach dem Rechten. Man lebt ziemlich abgeschieden in der Natur (mit allerlei Tierchen im und ums Haus) war aber genau das, was wir gesucht hatten. Zum Supermarkt sind es 30min Fahrt - da muss man mehr planen als sonst. Die steile Anfahrt (unbefestigte Straße, Schlaglöcher) ist besser mit 4-Rad-Antrieb zu bewältigen und definitiv beim 1. Mal nicht in der Nacht zu empfehlen - schont die Nerven. Ansonsten: Alles war wunderbar, wir haben uns sehr gefühlt.
