What an incredible adventure to find this renovated Italian Villa at the end of a picturesque Umbrian country road. We were met by the owner, Alec, who treated us like invited guests, prepared delicious meals, provided us with our own immaculate private guest apartment with luxury linens on a huge bed and a deluxe bathroom all with breath taking southern...

If you are looking for a special place to stay in the countryside of Umbria, this is it. Nestled in the hills overlooking a vast valley is Bellaugello, a charming inn. Our lovely hosts Alec, Jenny and Milo, attended to every detail. Alec served a sumptuous breakfast each morning and on some evenings, a delicious dinner. He was always full... More

Bellaugello is great! We stayed there this summer for the second time and that won't be the last time! Alec is a great host and Jenny (the dog) too! And i won't forget to mention Milo: such a sweet dog! And the apartment was kept very clean! The food is delicious, the swimming pool is heaven...

We've been to Bellaugello twice -- for 10 days in summer 2011, and we went in late October 2012 with a bunch of friends to celebrate my birthday. The place itself is breathtaking -- remote, quiet, extremely well-appointed, tastefully decorated suites (each of them quite different) -- and Alec the owner is brilliant -- discreet but approachable and friendly --...

An exceptional place with a wonderful host. Stayed there for 10 days (first time in Umbria) and thorougly enjoyed it. The hotel is located off the main road, and somewhat difficult to find, though that's also the advantage. Very quite and clean, nice hiking paths, and a very helpful owner, who speaks Italian, and totaly immersed in the community and... More

Returning to Bellaugello was one of the main reasons we planned another trip to Italy earlier this month. And we were not disappointed! Again, our kind host Alec was thorough with all the details of the operation of this wonderful old building which takes full advantage of the amazing vista of the Umbrian valley below. Our suite, the "Diva" is... More

A dear friend of Gubbio, he advised me to stay with Alec (Alec for years invited me to see what had made the house restauration) and I have to say that he was right, Alec is a great host and has created a place full of character and charm, the strong point is the position that dominates the one of...
