About this apartment rental
Pieve Suites consists of three spacious, independent, self-catering studio apartments inside a luxuriously restored Medieval townhouse in a narrow, flower-decked centro storico street in Città della Pieve. It’s not a hotel, nor a B&B: it’s three stylishly simple spaces for savvy independent travellers who relish the opportunity to get to grips with their surroundings
Mid suite
Shades of teal and peacock green set the tone in this intimate, luminous suite (36m2/43 sq yd), perfect for cocooning couples, with its low window allowing views of the verdant Umbrian countryside from the comfort of your double bed.
Heirloom bedside cabinets, elegant Rubelli fabrics and contemporary furnishings and lighting play off against rustic exposed beams and historic features such as the brick-lined niche behind the bed, part of a Medieval doorway. A large French window brings the outside in – we’ve placed a garden table and chairs so you can admire the view or perhaps indulge in an indoor picnic.
Città della Pieve and the surrounding area offers a wide array of restaurants, wine bars and cafés, but when eating out doesn’t appeal, guests can whip up simple meals in the Mid suite's kitchenette which has a kettle, espresso coffee machine, sink, fridge and two induction hobs. Tea, coffee, tisanes and essential kitchen supplies are provided.
The Mid Suite has our largest bathroom, featuring a generously sized rain-head shower stall. It is provided with organic toiletries.
Like all our suites, the Mid suite has its own fully adjustable air-conditioning/heating unit to ensure optimum conditions. It is located on the first (US second) floor of the house; there is no lift/elevator.
As a rule, we don't accept children under 12 years old or stays of fewer than two nights, but please enquire because these rules are sometimes waived. Animals are not allowed.
Pieve Suites
The Garden Suite is one of three individually decorated suites - one on each of three floors: perfect for couples singly, but ideal for groups if taken together with the Garden and/or Top suites. All look out over the walls of the town to a beautifully framed Umbrian landscape. Pieve Suites is perfectly placed to help guests dive straight into an immersive Umbrian hill town experience. The sights and amenities of charming Città della Pieve are within easy walking distance, but private transport is essential if you're planning to explore the wider area. Central as Pieve Suites is, the townhouse is remarkably quiet – perfect for a good night's sleep.
Ideal for travellers seeking the freedom of a fully independent self-contained unit along with a little curated attention when necessary, Pieve Suites offers not only a host – Anglo-Australian garden designer Anne Hanley – who is just a phone call away to provide advice and and arrange experiences, but also a printed guide to Città della Pieve and environs, written and regularly updated by Anne.
Città della Pieve & around
This walled Umbrian town close to the region’s border with Tuscany, is an under-the-radar holiday and long-weekend destination with a real insider cachet. Stroll through its medieval lanes, past ancient chapels, al fresco trattoria tables and rows of charming townhouses in warm, weathered brick, and it’s not difficult to understand why so many visitors, both Italian and international, have ended up falling in love with the place and moving here for all or part of the year.
At the centre of a food and wine region that stretches into Tuscany and northern Lazio, Città della Pieve boasts some of central Italy’s best olive oil, just one element of the genuine, market-fresh local cuisine offered in a range of local restaurants and wine bars. With a glorious small theatre from the 19th century and a thriving music and art scene, it offers cultural distractions all through the year. Lovers of the outdoor life will embrace the walking, cycling and horse-riding opportunities on offer in the iconic landscapes of these Umbrian-Tuscan borderlands. Yoga courses, cooking lessons and spa packages at the nearby hot-spring resort of San Casciano dei Bagni can all be advised on. And the cultural, environmental and culinary magnets of Perugia, Siena, Orvieto, Lake Trasimeno and the Val d’Orcia are all an hour or less away by car. But above all, this is a place to kick back, unplug and enter into the gentler rhythms and generous community spirit of one of Italy’s most enjoyable small towns.

We have stayed in this beautiful apartment, welcomed at our arrival by Anne and we soon have been charmed by this spacious flat full of light with a wonderful view over the country side, located in one of the most beautiful streets of Città della Pieve. Fresh fruits, tea, coffee and homemade biscuits were there for us. Everything was super clean and made our stay unforgettable. The mattress and cushions were perfect. Highly recommended if you wanna explore Umbria and Tuscany starting from Città della Pieve, that itself is a place we fell in love with.
