Further details for this vacation castle rental in Spoleto, Italy

The Grand Nobile Salon: The main salon of Palazzo Massarucci, located on the second level is 130 square meters with large southeast and northwest facing windows overlooking the forests and hills of the Massa Martana. It boasts 40 meters of restored frescoes from the 16th century depicting mythological scenes and masonic symbolism. Honeycomb wood ceilings hover at heights of eight meters.

Lovingly Restored: Lovingly restored, Palazzo Massarucci retains most original features including frescoes, hand hewn wood doors and gates, ironwork and hand made terracotta tile floors and the original crest of the Massarucci family that adorns the arched ceiling of the entrance hall.

The Views: The views are breathtaking, magnificent; vast forests of the massa martana, the cities of Spoleto and Assisi and scattered, pink-stone country farm houses. A litany of color and perfume all year around. Watch the moon rise between a crag in the mountain, so close you could hold it in your hand. Palazzo Massarucci is a powerfully sensuous property!

Ski: Just one hour from Palazzo Massarucci.

Other Activities: Wildlife Viewing, Wild food gathering (asparagus, mushrooms, truffles, chestnuts, wild lettuces)

Great Honeymoon and Wedding Party Getaway

Laura, Newlywed Wisconsin, USA
Review Submitted: October 19, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
From beginning to end, our week at Palazzo Massarucci was incredible! We were married in Spoleto, and 20+ family members stayed with us for the week. The wing off the main entrance made a perfect honeymoon suite, with private kitchen and luxury bathroom. The huge kitchen and attached living room made a very homey place for meals. It was also a place we spent hours cooking together as a family, and laughing late into the night as we played cards & shared the days adventures.

You wake each morning to views from every window that make you feel very relaxed and definitely "away from it all." This villa was the only one we found that had a pool adjacent and close, enabling us to eat and entertain around the pool.

The small store nearby kept us well supplied with necessities and all the wine we needed. The restaurant across the street, La Fontana, accommodated us for our rehearsal dinner and had wonderful food.

Laura Burke was very accommodating as we planned our wedding week, and it went off without a hitch! Looking back, and viewing our pictures often, everyone who was there commented on what an amazing place it was, and what a fairytale wedding we had. We are planning on going back for anniversaries and we're sure everyone will want to join us again. It well exceeded our expectations and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a fairytale vacation.
Owner's Response: Thank you for the wonderful review and for being wonderful guests!

More than we hoped for

Happy ZZ travelers England
Review Submitted: October 7, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This wonderful palazzo was way more than we hoped for! Our family travels together every year and this was the best property we have ever rented, it was just perfect. We found everything we needed. The layout gave us all privacy and the kids were thrilled to find lots of toys and things to do. Even our teenagers were happy! We did do several day trips to surrounding towns and villages and found it all very convenient, the roads are safe and comfortable and clearly marked. The local restaurant just below the property is excellent. Nina the housekeeper was very helpful and gracious. Our meals in the garden and around the pool looking out at the spectacular views were unforgettable. Though we like to try new properties every year we have decided to return to this property again and again. We highly recommend it and just can't say enough. Price per quality it is far and away a bargain. Thank you Laura!

A wonderful place for a true get-away vacation

Nadine M. Boston, MA USA
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My family and I just got back from a wonderful week at this beautiful palazzo. There were 20 of us ranging in age from 3 to 89 and we all had a fabulous time. The house is beautiful with tons of space for everyone. It is very clean and well maintained. The gardens and the pool are beautiful. Though the surrounding area is lovely, we were often quite content to just relax either inside the house or outside in the beautiful grounds.

The house is extremely kid-friendly, with lots of nooks to hide in and games for them to play. The kitchens (3), made it very easy for us to prepare great meals to feed everyone. The owner was extremely gracious - offering for us to move furniture around to best suit our needs, which was very helpful.

The local store/restaurant next door was very convenient for small forgotten items and the people we met in the village were friendly. We had dinner at the local restaurant (La Fontana) the last night and both the food and service were wonderful.

This is a terrific place for a get-away - we truly felt like we were on vacation. We did a few day trips to Spoleto which is a lovely town for sight seeing.

I highly recommended this for a vacation and am counting the days until we can do a return trip.

AWAY FROM IT ALL -- HEAVEN ON EARTH

D+R London, England
Review Submitted: August 5, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Have just returned from a stay in this sensitively refurbished large old palazzo, beautifully restored without loss of authenticity or character, very comfortably furnished and fully equipped with everything one could possibly want. Very clean, and prompt service on hand for any problems. Wonderful grounds, with good size pool, covered dining area, fire pit for barbecues and grassed area. Fantastic all-round unspoiled views, extremely quiet and peaceful -- and very friendly village.

Ideal for a getaway -- but not too remote for a large choice of more local sightseeing or a day trip to Rome, or just hill walking but we were far too relaxed to attempt that.

Ideal for large groups or families -- we were ten adults and ten children; perfect location and accommodation.

Highly recommended.

A great place to stay

Shuggie New York City
Review Submitted: January 25, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2007
Pallazzo Massarucci is incredible. My wife and I stayed there for a few weeks in March 2007. It’s an enormous place with large rooms, but very cosy at the same time. It was still too cold to use the outdoor pool so we had to “settle for” the sauna and nights around the fireplaces. And there’s plenty to do around the area. We ended up many afternoons just wandering around the hillsides. It’s an historic building but recently, and lovingly renovated with all modern conveniences. We can’t recommend the place enough. And the nearby restaurant has delicious, real, local food. A great deal for what you get.
