Gli Olivi - Borgo Bastia Creti, nr Umbertide
Borgo Bastia Creti is an elegant hamlet set high up in the hills in northen Umbria with glorious views over wooden hills, cornfields and olive groves.
Several of the original dwellings, now individual cottages in the gardens or large apartments adjacent to the courtyard of the hamlet offer very spacious accommodation decorated in elegant, classic country style. Decorative tiles, some of them antiques, have been used in the large kitchens and open fireplaces provide a focal point in the sitting rooms.
Guests at Gli Olivi can dine in the courtyard or in the gardens and the spacious bedrooms have beautifully appointed en suite facilities.
The original chapel has been converted into a magnificent dining and drawing room - Club Bastia - for guests, with outside grassy terrace with tables and chairs for dining al fresco - delicious evening meals may be ordered in advance.
A gentle stroll leads to the pool tucked into a panoramic grassy terrace and there is plenty of space and shady and peaceful corners in the extensive gardens for all guests. Guests of all ages will aso enjoy the hard tennis court.
