Because the house is taller than those surrounding it, each room enjoys plenty of light all day long and there are stunning views over rooftops, churches and town monuments. The balcony offers fresh air and a peaceful view of the surrounding hills.

You’ll find the apartment in the heart of Todi, an Umbrian hilltown famous for picturesque winding streets and breathtaking views.
It was once the home of the painter Umberto Bartolini, an art teacher and prominent cultural figure in Todi at the turn of the twentieth century, and you can read about his life in the guestbook. The apartment is decorated with his oil paintings, drawings and sketches as well as photographs taken by the current owner, who is Bartolini's descendant and an artist in his own right.
At this house, you’ll be welcomed as a traveller -- even a member of the family -- and never an anonymous tourist.
The apartment is situated on the upper two floors of a traditional stone-built house dating from the Middle Ages.

The Second Floor hosts a formal living room dedicated to Bartolini's memory and decorated with his paintings and drawings, as well as lovely 19th-century antiques. The 2 bedrooms (1 double and 1 single) are connected by a full bathroom. Both bedrooms have fine views.

The Third Floor has a dining-room with a table for four, and it leads out to a balcony with beautiful views over the hills to the south and west. The sunsets behind the cupola of the famous Renaissance church, the Tempio di Santa Maria della Consolazione, are amazing. There is a fully equipped kitchen open to the dining-room on one side and a sitting-room (with sofabed) on the other, as well as a single bedroom with half bath.

Please be aware that in order to enjoy the beautiful views from the property, you will be climbing three flights of stairs to reach the apartment on the Second Floor, and two more to get to the Third Floor. The apartment is therefore not accessible to anyone with limited mobility.

The narrow streets of Todi are beautiful but can also present parking problems. Directly in front of the apartment is a small piazza where you can stop to unload your bags. And only a few metres down the road there is unlimited and secure free parking. The free parking area is indeed only 5 minutes away -- you have to walk downhill from the apartment to get to it, uphill to get back to the apartment.
