Apartment in villa with pool at walking distance from Todi center

The house was built in 2006, over the remains and in the style of a historical farm and a 5x10 mt (16x32 feet) pool was added in 2018. At only 50 meters from the medieval walls of the town, it stands at the Center of an estate featuring aged oaks, walnut trees, olive trees, and fruit orchards. The owners, Paola and Giovanni, live in Davis, California (USA) and love coming to Todi for their vacations with their 3 children. During the rest of the year the apartment is available for renting.
The house is composed of two fully independent apartments: one is on the ground floor and the other is on the first floor also available for renting.

Also within one hour drive there are exceptional naturalistic sites such as “Cascata delle Marmore” (the largest waterfalls in Italy), Monti Sibillini and several natural parks.

Wonderful stay in Todi
We enjoyed the calm atmosphere of the area. It was a very beautiful location and less crowds. Adele was a great host and made us feel very welcomed. The apartment was nicely furnished. The table on the patio was a favorite location for relaxing. It is a great place to stay with a car. The parking is convenient and taking day trips in Umbria was easy from the location. I would definitely stay there again if I was in Umbria.

Felt Like Home In Umbria
We were very satisfied with our stay for three weeks. Our host, Adele, was outstanding and provided very helpful information. The property was both very comfortable and convenient to accessing other points of interest in Umbria. There was a parking area close by to take the funicular or bus to the center of Todi. We would love to return in the future if our plans bring us back to Umbria.

Umbrian Perfection
The place was exactly as described in the listing and perfect for our family of 4. The house was perfectly located just outside the walls of Todi. We stayed here for a month and it was a great base to explore the many beautiful towns in Umbria. We also day tripped into Florence and Rome. When we weren’t touring around we enjoyed a lovely walk into Todi and afternoons by the beautiful pool. Adele was so helpful and made our stay super comfortable. We recommend a car to explore the surrounding towns and getting to the big grocery store at the bottom of the hill but not necessary for exploring Todi. Can’t wait to come back one day.

Fabulous stay with gorgeous pool and gardens
Our party of 4 adults stayed a week on our first trip to Umbria. Todi was the perfect location. The property is in a delightful and peaceful location, set in really nice gardens and spacious pool with recliners and decking. 10 minute walk to the entrance to the the historic part of Todi and another 10 minute to reach the main piazza. The apartment was the lower part of a very nice villa which was nicely presented,with a great covered outside area where we mostly had meals. Whilst it was an apartment, it felt like a private villa with nice views from the windows. Spacious, good quality,well equipped, well maintained and very clean. Had everything we needed. Adele the owner host was charming, very responsive and helpful. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this accommodation and Todi. Thanks Adele.!

Well equipped property close to historic Todi
This was a delightful property furnished with everything needed for a comfortable stay and with lovely grounds, splendid views and a good swimming pool. The particular attraction for us was having a property with parking but also within walking distance of the historic town of Todi and its many restaurants and attractions. Adele was a very helpful hostess and there was good communication throughout.

Perfect end to our trip
This was the last of three properties we stayed at in Umbria. It was everyone's favorite. We stayed there for four nights at the end of April and easily could have stayed there for a month. The town of Todi is easily accessible. Adele and family are so hospitable and are a model of how a VRBO host should be. You can probably read in the other reviews how great the property is which is all true. I will say that the driveway is a bit hairy going down the first time, but after a couple times it's not a problem. Actually, the hillside that the property is on provides fabulous views of the surrounding country. There is a picture-perfect pool and gazebo in the olive tree orchard. We will certainly be back. It would a great place to go for a week with friends. Thanks Adele and family for making this a great place!

This is the best property. We felt at home and very comfortable. Adelle couldn't have been nicer. It was like staying with family. We actually didn't want to leave. The town and the people in the area couldn't have been nicer. I would strongly encourage you to rent this property.

AMAZING
So glad we found this place during our time in Umbria. It's in the countryside with wonderful views and olive trees galore. The apartment was very spacious and spotlessly clean. It was perfect for the 2 couples. We also had a chance to enjoy the pool....very refreshing. This property was close to the town centre and Orvieto was a 30 minute drive and well worth seeing. Our hostess Adele was wonderful, she was very helpful in recommendations. She lives in a separate house on the property but respected our privacy. We highly recommend this VRBO.

Charming place with great views
The house is just below Todi - 200 meters to citygate and 500 meters up to center of town through narrow streets and old buildings - tough but worth it as Todi is charming and have good restaurants. The house itself is spacious with all what you need (well equiped kitchen, great bed, 3 bathrooms, nice outdoor sitting area) so you can easily stay there for an extended period. But the best is the fantastic views towards the hilly landscape. Great from the nice chairs at your private space behind the house even better if you walk 30 meters through the olive field to the terasse there. Nice pool with good size for swimming. Adele takes good care of you - ask her for restaurant recommendations -

PERFECT !!!
A truly delightful villa and an ideal base to explore the region. A wonderfully private location, yet just a short walk/drive from the heart of Todi. Fresh figs from the surrounding trees & panoramic views of the Umbrian countryside from the magnificent pool - what more can you ask for!!! Adele is a superstar, and made us feel instantly at home – nothing was too much for her. When events beyond our control occurred, Adele (with her perfect English) went above and beyond to help us out. We returned home refreshed and recharged - thank you!!!

Beautiful apartment
We loved our apartment just outside of Todi. It had everything we needed to cook in and was close to many restaurants in Todi if we chose to go out. The apartment was very clean and comfortable and sat among olive and fig trees. The grounds were gorgeous as was the pool. Adele was helpful with everything we needed. Todi is close to the center of Umbria so it was very convenient to drive to the many wonderful towns and villages.

Il Gelso is the perfect place for a relaxing holiday in Umbria
We spent the most wonderful week at Il Gelso. The apartment was superb and everything that we could ever have needed was there inside. Two things made our holiday really special though: the outside space and Adele, the owner. The pool area really was amazing and we swam everyday - and most evenings too. The views were beautiful, out across the olive grove and to the mountains in the distance. It truly was such a peaceful place to read, relax and swim. Adele was so kind and courteous; she gave us great restaurant ideas and even booked a table for us one evening, but she was always so discreet too and let us just get on with enjoying our holiday. Todi was a great base for sightseeing; there are so many lovely towns and villages within an hours drive. We did, however, think that Todi was the best of them all, and to be able to walk there (uphill!) to look at the shops, monuments and to just sit in a cafe and watch the world go by was such a pleasure. I can only think of positive things to say about Il Gelso and Todi - going there for a week of relaxation was the perfect end to our holiday in Italy.

The most gracious host I've had ever stayed with
Stayed at Adele's property for almost 3 weeks with my family. As it turns out one of our favourite family vacations. Todi is a great town with lots of amenities. Other sites within Umbria are just a half hour away which sent us exploring every day. Over the years we have stayed in many self catering units this unit and the location is ideal. Adele is always on hand to help she is the best host I've stayed with and would not hesitate to stay again or to recommend her accommodation. Thank you Adele for a great experience.

We had a fantastic long weekend in Villa Gelso
Beautifull location in the middle of olive trees and with an outstanding view to the valley. I loved opening the bedroom windows in the morning, admiring the beautifull landscape kilometers away and listening the birds singing. What would be a better way to start your day. The location is absolutely perfect, no neighbours and 10 mins walk to the Todi center. You get good exercise climbing uphill to the center. Several good restaurants to choose from. And finally big, big thanks to Adele, who made our stay perfect. She made us feel welcome from the very first moment and during our stay. Adele even helped us to purchase truffels, which we carried home frozen. We will be able to come back to the umbrian spirit by cooking Pasta Tartuffo at home!
