What a great place
The apartment is big, light-filled and clean. The furniture is very comfortable and the pool is huge and even has a water feature. The grounds are beautiful, with seating areas everywhere. But the best experience was our hostess, Valentina. She's warm and welcoming and so accessible and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place.

Picturesque Umbria
The property was as listed and very clean. Check-in was easy. The directions received from the property manager to locate the property were detailed and easy to follow. Valentina also provided a document containing various restaurants and points of interest in the area. She was readily available to help with any questions. It was too cold to take advantage of the pool during our stay. The location was perfect to access the highway to travel throughout the region.

Charmng and practical space from which to discover Umbria
We would like to return in summer, perhaps with family. Too cool this time for the pool but it is so inviting! The property is an oasis of green and calm, 5-8 minutes from Perugia center. The apartment is clean, with comfortable beds, good lighting options, lovely living/dining space and a well-stocked kitchen. The owners are good communicators and very friendly (use Valentina’s suggestion list!). We used this base to explore a different Umbrian, Marches or Tuscan town each day. Urbino, Gobbio, Assisi...Can’t wait to come back.

Lovely property and grounds
We had a wonderful two week stay in this property with our two teenage boys. The apartment is spacious and spotlessly clean. There is plenty of outside space and seating and the pool is wonderful. Most of the time we used the outside areas we had them to ourselves even though the other apartments were also occupied. The apartment also has it's own outdoor cooking and eating area. Valentina and her husband were so friendly and helpful and responded straight away if we had any queries. The location is perfect for exploring Umbria and Tuscany and we visited many of the hill towns as well as frequent trips into Perugia using the bus service which stops outside the house. Highlights of the holiday for us were trips to Sienna and Cortona and a day on lake Trasimeno on a motorboat. We would definitely stay here again.

Home from Home
We were made to feel very welcome at Le Balze and felt instantly at home in the apartment and the beautiful surrounding gardens. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable and accommodated the five of us easily. We enjoyed the use of a nice patio and well equipped BBQ outside but also used the covered table area next to the pool in the evening. The pool was immaculate and there were plenty of sun loungers and shady areas to find. Valentina was there at hand to help when we needed it and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. The property is a couple of minutes drive from Perugia which we found made a great central base to visit lots of beautiful hill top cities such as Assissi, Spello and Oliveto. If you are looking for a relaxing break tucked away in a quiet and homely setting yet within easy reach of lots of beautiful Umbrian destinations then we would recommend Le Balze.

Beautiful villa a stone's throw away from Perugia town center
We stayed at Il Melograno with our two kids in August 2018. The location is great - 5/10 minute drive to the town centre. Yet the villa is super green, secluded and peaceful. The apartment is stunning, with lots of natural light and beautiful furniture - a mix of brand new (kitchen) and antiques (bedrooms). The patio/gazebo outside has a fully functioning open air kitchen with sink, stove, BBQ and a big dining table, which was so nice to have in the summer to make the most of the beautiful Italian weather. We will be coming back! :)

Wonderful stay with a welcoming host
Relaxing week in Perugia with our 2 sons (7&10). The pool and facilities were fabulous. The other guests were families and it was easy to share the pool and grounds. The area is amazing and a trip to Assisi is definitely recommended. Thank you Valentina for our wonderful stay x

Lovely apartment in beautiful surroundings
We spent a very pleasant week in the apartment. It had plenty of space, very comfortable fittings in a lovely large estate. The pool was excellent, and there were many places to sit and relax in the sun or in the shade - your choice! The outdoor al -fresco barbecue area was a joy! And Valentina is a lovely, welcoming and helpful owner. All you needed on a day-to-day basis was just five minutes away in the car - and if you didn't feel like testing your driving skills in Perugia there was a bus stop right outsider the gate! Assisi was only 20 minutes away - and the airport only 15 minutes. Highly recommended!

Lovely, relaxing & beautiful home
My family absolutely enjoyed staying at Le Blaze: Il Melograno villa apartment for 12 days in May. We can’t wait to come back. Valentina is a kind and wonderful host who was always available if we needed anything. The apartment has everything you need and her well-kept garden is full of open space, flowers, patios to dine al fresco, and a relaxing pool. Our son loved running around, playing on the swing, and spending time with her two friendly dogs. It truly felt like a home away from home. Thank you Valentina for making our visit such a lovely experience!
