Il Giulione

• Il Giulione is a beautifully restored traditional
  property. Once the hunting lodge of the Cecchani
  family, who claim their heritage from the lords
  of Proceno, it now provides superb accommodation
  for 10/12 guests. The lodge features a spacious
  ground floor living, dining and kitchen area with
  upstairs providing 3 suites of bedrooms that are
  quite independent and complete with own
  bathrooms. The refurbishment has been lovingly
  overseen by Signora Cecilia Cecchani Bisoni, with
  care taken to ensure total privacy and maximum
  comfort. The Lodge is tastefully furnished,
  family antiques and beautifully restored
  furniture add to the ambience of the setting.
  All floors are of handmade terracotta tiles.
• The lodge sits on 2 hectares of land and enjoys
  magnificent views of the surrounding countryside.
  The partially fenced grounds offer a natural
  environment with a 6x15 metre swimming pool and a
  covered car park within easy access of the house.
  At 2.5 kms away there is a hamlet where basic
  supplies are available, there is also a small
  restaurant. San Casciano dei Bagni with all
  shops and facilities is at 10kms, the bustling
  town of Acquapendente is only 15kms away with the
  medieval village of Proceno at 17kms.
• The main entrance is from the side of the Lodge
  into a hall featuring an ancient wood burning
  oven, a vaulted ceiling which resembles the prow
  of a boat and a stone staircase to the upper
  level (piano 1). On the right of the hall a door
  leads into Il Carlino, a small apartment that
  can be used independently or in conjunction with
  the rest of the house. Il Carlino features a
  studio with double sofa bed, desk and closet,
  bathroom and small kitchen with door leading to
  the garden. On the left of the hall a door leads
  into the spacious 700sqm. living and dining area.
  The living/dining space (soggiorno/sala di
  pranzo) comprises a huge fireplace, 3 sofas (one
  of which is a double sofa bed), an arm chair, 2
  large sideboards, a dining table and decorative
  frieze in pietra santa. The space is
  comfortable, light and airy with four windows and
  a glass paned door that opens onto the covered
  porch (portico) where one finds an outdoor eating
  area (la loggia) with fireplace and barbecue.
• A doorway leads from the dining area into a hall
  that provides access to a bathroom with shower
  (wheelchair access) and the kitchen (la cucina).
  Through an open arch the kitchen opens onto a
  small breakfast nook. The kitchen is fully
  equipped with gas range, electric oven, microwave
  oven, dishwasher and fridge with freezer. A door
  from the kitchen leads to the garden.

  space. To the left of the living space is Camera
