Sant'Ansovino is a 12th century Benedictine monastery nestling in the breathtaking and tranquil hills of central Italy at the crossroads of Tuscany, Umbria and Le Marche. It has been lovingly restored into an elegant and comfortable holiday home using all original materials. Modern conveniences such as en-suite marble bathrooms, Wi-Fi broadband internet links, a large American-sized fridge, professional range cooker, and several sitting rooms ensure that everyone in your party has space to relax. Outside, our upper terrace has a large loggia with seating for 20. There is a large swimming pool for those hot days, and 12 acres of stunning hillside grounds to meander through if you feel like a walk. The tranquil setting makes it the ideal destination for family holidays, tracking and exploring. There is an excellent restaurant within walking distance, together with a wine bar and a bar/shop (open 7 days a week). San Ansovino lies about 4KM East of the beautiful medieval village of Apecchio which offers a wide range of services including a bank (with ATM), several supermarkets, bars, numerous excellent restaurants, a post office, chemist etc. The world famous UNESCO City of Urbino is just 40 minutes away, as are other beautiful hill towns such as Gubbio, Sansepolcro.

We had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed and more. The pool was excellent and the kids (and adults) loved it. The house was clean and well equipped and we enjoyed using the pizza oven and BBQ during our stay. The location was ideal with supermarkets and restaurants nearby but it was remote enough to relax, get away from it all and enjoy the scenery. The hosts Louise and Marc were wonderful and really helped us both before and during our trip. I would highly recommend staying here :)

An amazing, authentic house; tucked away in the hills of the Marche. A place that offers everything a foodie loves: Fresh herbs, pizza oven, extended kitchen equipment, plus the occasion for a real Italian Cooking class, with three generations female Chefs. Great communication with the owners, and absolutely amazing daily service by Alfio, the pool man. Would highly recommend this place if you are in for a lovely time in nature (hikes), combined with spending time at the pool.

Ansovino is a very special place. Stunning, sophisticated, well appointed and very peaceful. It's obviously a place much loved by the owners Louise and Marc, as is testament by the beautiful antique furniture and top end equipment. Also Anna is on hand to give local advice and sort out any problems quickly and efficiently. It was very hot during our stay but there was also a wonderfully cooling breeze which made for a perfect mix. Great local restaurants and beautiful cities to visit a shortish drive away. The house also has the cleanest windows I have ever seen!

We had a fantastic stay the house is really well equipped and beautifully renovated .We were three family's , the pool was an obvious hit but we had great fun cooking pizzas in the outside pizza oven and the covered sitting area works brilliantly with the location of the pool , house and lounges . The restaurant at the bottom of the hill to which you can walk to was perfect ,everything you want for an authentic Italian experience . The antipasta were delicious as was all the other rustic fare provided . The two villages nearby were great for a drink or pizza . There are plenty of walking trails and mountain bike routes and you can hire bikes in Appechio which has a useful tourist information centre which can sort out canyoning , climbing etc if you are feeling more adventurous . To us it felt like bygone holidays in France from years ago , rural and unspoilt but with a thriving local population .

We booked this house for a 3 family joint holiday. As ever, booking on-line was concerning me until I had decided upon the Monastery and made contact with the owners. Louise was so helpful, friendly and reassuring from the get-go. She made the whole process of booking and paying for the holiday stress free and painless. Upon arrival, the Monastery blew us away! What a fabulous and amazing house. The children were so excited, especially with the gorgeous pool and garden area. The house was spotless and what really impressed was the attention to detail. The arrival pack was generous and comprehensive. The highlights included; cooking outside using the Pizza Oven (we even managed to cook a full Sunday roast in there!), late night swims in the beautifully flood-lit pool, breakfast at the local cafe in Appechio, trips to Rome/Sienna/Florence, the peacefulness of the sublime valley the Monastery nestled in, the restaurant at the bottom of the hill - a short pop-in on the way back from a visit to a local town turned in to a 3 hour boozy lunch! There are too many highlights to list here. Suffice to say, the 2 weeks passed too quickly and we returned home. I'm not exaggerating when I say that we all miss the Monastery and the gorgeous surrounding area. We have also fallen in love with Italy. We will return. In conclusion, the holiday far exceeded our expectations and I thoroughly recommend this house for your holiday.
