Antica Casale Tiravento is a nineteenth century (1866) farmhouse that has been fully modernized and converted into four apartments. It is located on a hill overlooking Lake Trasimeno at the end of a 400 metre un-metalled road; our hired Fiat 500 coped fine and there is ample parking at the villa. We were met by the owner, Annabella, who made us very welcome and settled us in to the apartment. She even insisted on carrying our bags. Our apartment was on the first floor with a large, private terrace with spectacular views of the Umbrian countryside and Lake Trasimeno. We had plenty of room for two although the apartment could cope with four if the bed-settee in the living room was used. An unexpected treat was daily delivery of a small loaf of bread and two filled croissants for breakfast. The villa is about a twenty minute walk into the centre of Passignano using the cycle track that goes around the lake. There is a Conad supermarket about seven minutes walk away. We spent nine days there and enjoyed the use of the olive grove with the covered seating areas and lovely lake views. Peaceful, comfortable and quiet with wonderful sunsets and a good wifi signal. Annabella and her son, Andrea, could not have been more helpful and I did not need to use my broken italian. We would recommend trips to Cortona and Panicale (location of the tv series Signora Volpe).

No complaints

Fabulous views and a quiet location. This property seems to have four units with the owner living on site. Our accommodation was upstairs and was spacious and well equipped. There is a shared washing area to use. The outside space is huge so you can either sit on your own veranda or in the many areas within the gardens. There is a shared hot (cool) tub with an amazing view that we used regularly and never had to wait for. Every morning there was a delivery of fresh bread and pastries (the pistachio croissant was my favourite) which was great and half way through our stay they changed the sheets and towels (letting us know in advance when they were coming). We were nervous about the road up but actually it’s just a steep stone road with ruts rather than pot holes and our low car had no issues. There are so many hillside medieval towns to see nearby, lovely places on the lake and we took a ferry to Isola Maggiore.

We stayed for a week at Antico Casale Tiravento, which is located near Lake Trasimeno. The street uphill need a bit of care on the first try, but there is a sign so you do not miss it. When you arrive at the spot you have a magnificent view over the lake, its islands and Passignano and also the other towns around the lake, and of course the beautiful countryside. The city center can be reached by a footpath directly on the lake, which is very nice in the evening. There is plenty of parking, which also has a sunroof. The apartment with the kitchen was very well equipped and very clean and most importantly: air conditioned. There is also a laundry room that guests can use for washing. The jacuzzi can be used by all apartments and can be reserved through the landlord. We have enjoyed our vacation very much.

Ideal location on the edge of town with the supermarket a short walk away. The apartments were very clean with a bathroom and kitchen in each, plenty of space for our group of 11. Antonella was fantastic making multiple trips to the station to collect our group and arranging transport to and from the wedding we were attending. Everyone said how they would love to have stayed for longer!

Great place to stay, fantastic views and a lovely host. The location is just right to visit the lake and surrounding areas but also to travel further afield. Lovely croissants and bread each morning left for us to start the day. Many thanks to Antonella for looking after us

The location was superb...lovely views and a short drive from Passignano. We stayed in an apartment with a big terrace, which was fantastic. The apartment was well equipped, light and airy. It was spotlessly clean. Antonella and her partner are charming and helpful and communication was efficient. The apartment was good value.

the property is a traditional villa with all modern conveniences: full kitchen, bathroom with quality towels, TV with several apps (Netflix); king bed, living room; and outdoor patio. I chose the property also for location; it is on a lake, and 1/2 way between Tuscany (Siena) and Umbria (Assisi). the owner is a lovely lady (Antonella) who has mastered the details of hospitality (dishwasher, washer and dryer, lawn furniture, and a wonderful Italian breakfast with eggs, coffees, tea, milk, juices, cereal, danish rolls, Italian bread with butter and fresh preserves, cheese, fruits, and more of all the above. it is delicious and fresh. the property is spotlessly clean, and the view of the sunsets is magical. it is close to town and restaurants and shopping. HIGHLY recommend this property is you are looking for quiet, peaceful, and lovely location.

I recommend the beds be raised (they are lower than American standards); and the entry road off the highway is single-lane and rugged. it is perfectly safe, but you must go slow and watch your direction.

Such a lovely place. The host was always available if we had any questions. The best vacation ever. We will be coming back soon

Host is super nice and helpful, lives on the property so available for every issue or question. breakfast very good! the view is spectacular. the apartment was cleaned every day.

The shower is not well sealed, and so after a shower the bathroom which is also the toilet is a puddle for the rest of the day. The curtains in the bathroom are thin and sheer and while pretty, the window is looking out to the path leading to common facilities. I wished for more privacy.

Antico Casale Tiravento is located on a hill next to Lago di Trasimeno. The view is amazing. You can see the entire lake and the town of Passignano from your lounge chair. The accomodation is situated on a beautiful piece of land filled with flowers and olive trees. The accomodation itself has everything you could need. It was big, well equipped, quiet and very clean. We really appreciated having a place to unwind from our sightseeing and activities. The accomodation had a living room with a well equipped kitchen, a big sofa and a smart TV. The hostess is a wonderful person, who really goes above and beyond to see to your needs. She dealt very well with our dietary restrictions (allergies), allowed our family to come over for a birthday and always responded quickly to our questions via Whatsapp. We also really enjoyed the company of her dog (Lulu), who can roam freely, but only if none of the guests mind. We had a wonderful time and would recommend to stay here!
