La Solda

Rooms description

There are three double bedrooms all positioned on the first floor, which is ground floor when entering via the front door where the parking is. All 3 airconditioned bedrooms have a shower room and wc. There is a red, a blue and a green bedroom with lovely colorful elements, old Sicilian tiles, cotton linen made up beds with quality memory mattrasses. All bedrooms overlook the valley.

3 shower rooms with wc. Modern fittings and Sicilian floor tiles recalling the color of the rooms. There is a guest toilet on the ground floor as well.

Like the rest of the house’s interior, old and new combine in the tactile materials of this locally made stand-out kitchen in a green Farrow and Ball color and white marble on top. The island houses quality appliances, including a wine fridge and a five-burner gas hob. In the adjacent pantry, located behind the island there will be a double fridge, a sink and the dishwasher and washing machine and dryer. Cooking at La Solda will be a joyful experience, or you can sit back and relax while the Special Umbria staff do the 'hard' work for you.

At one end of the open-plan living space, with its traditional dark grey cotto floor and whitewashed beamed ceiling, is a large sitting area. A comfortable corner sofa in mustard color and a couple of design arm chairs make for a cosy living space, with a modern design wood-burning stove for cooler days. At the other end of the room is an old wooden farmhouse dining table with 6 Italian design chairs, or guests can dine on the terrace looking out over the rolling countryside.

Your villa and Covid-19

To prevent any possible spread of Covid-19 and to enable you to enjoy a safe and relaxing holiday, all our villas are cleaned to the highest standard possible, and according to the latest Italian health and safety regulations.

Perfect hygiene: to ensure an exceptional level of hygiene in all our villas, we’ve worked with our owners to create a Covid-19 villa management protocol. Based on recommendations from the World Health Organisation, and in compliance with current Italian national law, this protocol goes above and beyond our usual rigorous cleaning standards.

Prior to arrival, your villa will have been fully sanitised, including all surfaces, objects, kitchen items, curtains, sofas, throws, pillows, toys, and in and around the pool. You are welcome to ask for a detailed list of the entire cleaning procedure we do after each departure and before welcoming new guests to the property.

The owner of this house has complied with the following standards:

• To ensure the necessary information concerning social distancing and the use of masks is available to all guests
• To guarantee availability of and accessibility to hand hygiene systems with hydro-alcoholic solutions and soaps in all inside areas of, and pertaining to, the villa
• To guarantee cleaning and disinfection of all areas according to national authority guidelines. Further information is available on request
• For the swimming pool: to guarantee the efficacy of the water treatments, while respecting legal limits (the parameter for free active chlorine in the pool is between 1.0 – 1.5 mg/l; combined chlorine ≤ 0.40 mg/l; pH 6.5 – 7.5 or equivalent oxygen)
• For air conditioning systems: to guarantee the air re-circulation function is switched off and, according to the manufacturer’s instructions, with the plant in off-mode, to clean the air filters of the heating/cooling plants that use heat pumps, fan coils and convectors, at the end of each stay
