With free Wifi internet access, Spoleto Bella, is a light, sunny apartment, in the historic centre of Spoleto, buzzing with shops, bars and restaurants as well as ancient monuments, churches and museums at every twist and turn of Spoleto’s arched and cobbled streets. It is located in Porta Fuga, one of Spoleto’s oldest mediaeval streets. The whole area is pedestrian. This is the best location in central Spoleto !

A car is Not necessary as you are just 10 minutes walk from the train station and the bus terminus or a very short bus-ride. From the train station, you can get to practically anywhere in Italy. And, from the bus station, there are myriad of really interesting journeys you can take from little local rides around the hills, visiting a diversity of hill-top villages, to places as far afield as Castelluccio and Norcia – spectacular rides !

Spoleto Bella is at the top of the Rocca Dei Perugini, with views from the kitchen/dining room and the terrace of the hilly countryside, dwellings scattered around and nearby roof-tops. It also has a long balcony off both bedrooms, overlooking the pedestrian, mediaeval lanes. So that, while your immediate surroundings are modern, the context you are in dates back to the days when Spoleto was a Latin colony and Roman community.

The large sitting/dining room is complete with Smart Tv. It has 2 double sets of dark, wooden patio doors (1 of them all glass) and a large wooden shuttered window – all along the front of the room. The doors open onto the large terrace – an absolute luxury in the historic centre of Spoleto – looks really great when the large window and both double doors are wide-open onto the terrace as the terrace becomes an extension of the room.

The terrace is private and exclusively yours.

Big terracotta pots full of colourful bushes, shrubs and flowers decorate the terrace. Plus dining furnture to seat 4. And, sunbeds and lounge chairs to snooze on.

The Rocca Dei Perugini, one of 33 listed buildings in Spoleto, was originally built in the 6C as the strong-hold of Perugia to watch over the citizens of Spoleto, whom the Perugians, alias “the Barbarians”, had just conquered! However, while the building itself is ancient, parts of it were irreparable. Hence, the entire centre of this ancient building has been replaced by modern apartments that cannot be seen from the outside. Very clever and very beautifully designed.

Here, you have all the advantages of contemporary, open-air living while still experiencing what it’s like to live in the most ancient and beautiful part of Spoleto. Porta Fuga is pedestrian, as are many of the tiny streets immediate to the apartment.

Meander at ease through the ancient streets, past flower shops, wine and truffle shops, many boutiques and shoe shops, bars and cafes and, of course, a myriad of interesting restaurants – cheap and upmarket, (nothing here is expensive compared to other city prices)… up to the famous La Rocca and the Duomo.

The entrance to Spoleto Bella is through a wide Roman stone passage with a luxury all glass business centre on the left and those in-built small glass alcoves displaying small luxury items on the right.

All the apartments in the Rocca dei Perugini, are serviced by a lift as well as a staircase. And, we have a private car space right next to the lift, in a private car-park, that you can hire for 50 euros/week.

Spoleto Bella is handy for the train station and the bus station from where you can get to practically anywhere in Italy by train or bus from Spoleto. Though, if you prefer to have a car, it is possible to park in one of the lanes just a few minutes walk away. Or, you can hire our secure car-parking space right outside Terrazza Bella for 50 euros a week.

Please ask at the Spoleto tourist office if would like advice re the various activities on pony trekking, white water rafting etc…..

So, if you are interested in being in the historical centre of Spoleto, surrounded by some of the world’s most famous monuments, churches and sites and, at the same time having easy access by local transport to places like Asissi, Perugia, Orvieto, Montefalco, Trevi, Todi and Rome, not to mention the gastronomic treats, famous (and cheap !) local wines…..and designer shops, then this is the place for you !

There are the full range of local shops, restaurants, supermarkets, banks and cash machines – everything you’d expect to find in a sophisticated city centre – just scaled down since Spoleto is more a large fairy-tale village and has the advantage of everything you could wish for within easy reach….especially, ice-cream, cappucino, great wines and truffles !!! The clothes shops ! Not to mention the galleries, museums, theatres and churches that are dotted all around you; and, you will find yourself entranced by the beauty and sprituality that pervades every cobble-stone in every one of its medieval street.

For the sporty, there is a flash tennis club within walking distance of almost anywhere you are staying – or, it is a short bus-ride from Piazza Garibaldi.

And, there is pony trekking that takes place just outside of Spoleto. The stables are placed in a exquisite environment and, you can either go on long treks into the mountains or just do an hour or so in the nearby woods – all supervised, the level of supervision depending on your level of expertise.

Spoleto is akin to a giant, fairy-tale castle. Sprinkled with bars, restaurants and shops, peppered with piazzas, Spoleto sits magestically amidst a maze of tunnelled, cobbled lanes and alley-ways, all leading skywards to the famous Rocca, the acquaduct and, some of the best views in the world. A surreal setting, a stage-set in the making, fringed by mountains, olive groves, vineyards, mediaeval monasteries, towns, cities and tiny hill-top villages – all beckoning a visit, Spoleto is truly a temptress. Succumb to her beauty and you must use all your will-power to leave.

Quite simply, Spoleto is the most captivating city in Italy, never mind Umbria, Venice and Florence, being on a par.

Venice has the water. Florence has the Uffici. Spoleto has the mountains. All three have a history to be reckoned with. All three bedazzle us with their rich cultures, their European, aristocratic connections and their sheer beauty. But, Spoleto has the upper hand for the world traveller. It resists the kind of tourism associated with inflated rates and tacky goods on sale ! You are invited to visit Spoleto, but, not as a tourist. You will be welcomed like a long lost member of the family ! Treated like a king. And, you will pay the same rates as all the locals, especially when you pay attention to all our recommended restaurants, bars and gelaterias.

Subsequently, Spoleto is in demand with those in search of “the authentic Italian” experience, love beauty and who wish to base themselves in the centre of Italy because, from Spoleto, you can get to practically anywhere else in Italy easily and cheaply within minutes to a few hours.
