Well, what a place to enjoy the spectacular scenery of Lake Trasimeno with the stunning backdrop of the lake and relax! However, if you are active people you can bike ride (bikes supplied with locks) or walk around the lake on the great bike tracks, stopping off for a coffee or aperitif, depending on time of day. You can also paddle board (supplied also) right out the front…perfect! We stayed here for a week but wished it was so much longer. The house was so well equipped with absolutely all you would need and the hosts David and Chrissie were so welcoming and accomodating, giving us ideas and places to visit nearby, of which there were so many! Do yourself a favour and stay in this spectacularly situated, gorgeous house…

Tranquil Paradise by Lake Trasimeno
Our recent stay at the charming Lang’s Lakehouse was an absolute dream come true. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with some basic food staples in the fridge and pantry set the tone for our stay.
The accommodation was nothing short of fantastic. The Lakehouse exuded a rustic charm that blended seamlessly with its modern comforts. The cozy main bedroom boasted stunning views of the lake, allowing us to wake up to the gentle sound of local birds each morning. The well-equipped kitchen was a delight for our family of food enthusiasts and we enjoyed preparing meals with locally sourced ingredients.
One of the highlights of our stay was the outdoor activities we were able to enjoy. Kayaking and Standup Paddle Boarding early morning and in the evening was a beautiful way to explore the lake’s features. The bikes, table-tennis and a backyard to kick a ball kept us entertained for hours. To end our days, we sipped our Spritz in the armchairs in the backyard as we watched the jaw dropping sunsets for which the lake is so famous. Just perfect!
The location of the Lakehouse was ideal for exploring the beauty of Umbria. We took leisurely walks along picturesque trails near the lake and when we wanted to experience the local culture, charming villages were just a short drive away which offered quaint streets, artisan shops, and authentic Italian dining…off course with STUNNING wines!
What truly set this Lakehouse experience apart, however, was the warm hospitality of David and Chrissie (our local hosts). From the moment of booking to our departure, they were attentive to our needs (of course there was clean linen, a laundry, full kitchen amenities and the house was secure), offering recommendations and ensuring our stay was unforgettable. Their genuine care made us feel like more than just guests; we felt like part of their extended family.
Our getaway at Lang’s Lakehouse in Umbria was everything we had hoped for and more. It was a rejuvenating escape after a few weeks in Italy, which included a very busy and exhausting schedule. We left with our hearts full of gratitude and memories to last a lifetime. We can't wait to return!

Lake Trasemino - WOW!
Described as "UNIQUE"and it truly lives up to this word! Where else can you walk into several nearby towns for gelato, provisions and fantastic meals, walk out the back door and across your private back lawn for a morning dip in Lake Trasemino, hang in the hammock and, ride the supplied bikes on the bike tracks, and (if you are lucky as we were ) see fire flies at night sparkling across the local gardens as you walk home? We had a glorious family holiday with our three generations. Chrissy ensured we had the appropriate bedding for toddlers and high chair- SO helpful :) The manual for the house was literally the best I have ever read of its kind. Nothing left to chance here from attentive hosts. Highly recommend it .

Amazing lake house in Umbria
What a fabulous place to stay. Chrisse and David have created a magical place to rent in Umbria on the lake. It has the most amazing sunsets and Chrisse and David are the best hosts !
We had a brilliant time paddle boarding and canoeing on the lake and can’t recommend this enough it was an amazing experience!!
The lake house is really well equipped and the bedrooms are beautiful , the whole place is such a restful and tranquil place to be based.
My children also loved the water park up the road and we loved fact we could walk to the local pizza restaurant which was great with an amazing setting.
I can’t recommend this place to stay in Umbria enough with such brilliant hosts and look forward to returning here again in the not to distant future !

Beautiful, tranquil get away
The house is charming, well appointed and very clean. It occupies a fabulous position with stunning views across Lake Trasimeno to enjoy the peace and stunning views. It is well positioned to explore the amazing and historic countryside and hill towns of Umbria. The owners, Chrissie and David, are extremely welcoming and so helpful. Masses of equipment including paddle boards, bikes and a canoe are available for guests to use - even giving access to some lovely local restaurants by water! What a great week, I strongly recommend going; we're definitely going back!

Lovely villa on Lake Trasimeno
I have just spent 5 days at Langs lake house with my husband. Beautiful views, very peaceful, and the house is clean, comfortable and well equipped. The owners were extremely helpful with recommendations, and we could use their bikes, canoe and paddle boards. Be prepared for mosquitoes and other insects in summer, but would highly recommend.

Fantastica esperienza in riva al Lago Trasimeno
Luogo incantevole, immerso nel verde e affacciato sul lago Trasimeno, davanti l'isola Polvese,che sembra quasi di poterla toccare. Una casa vacanze curata nei minimi dettagli. completamente ristrutturata e moderna con ogni confort a disposizione per i clienti, la casa è perfetta per relax, per fare attività all'aperto, in acqua, canoa, pesca, pilates, e rilassarsi in giardino con una birra!! Trovo che l'amore dei proprietari per questa casa sia unica, e soprattutto verso il cliente. Se cercate un casa al Trasimeno per godere della pace e del tipico tramonto Rosso del lago, qui avete fatto centro.
Super consigliato ❤️

Echt een geweldig mooi sfeervol huisje met een prachtig uitzicht!
Wat een super mooie week hebben we in de Lake house van David en Chrissie gehad! Het huisje heeft alles, is super schoon en erg sfeervol. Daarnaast is de tuin natuurlijk het meest geweldig: lekker genieten van de mooie zonsondergangen en overdag lekker zonnen, varen of suppen.
Zo fijn ook dat alles beschikbaar is in het huis, spelletjes, surfplanken, noem maar op!
En mijn vriend houdt van vissen, dus zo’n huis aan het meer is helemaal perfect.
En David en Chrissie zijn echt super vriendelijk!! Communicatie is erg makkelijk via whatsapp.

Das Haus mehr als schön. Es war alles super.
Zum entspannen und ein bisschen Aktion perfekt.
Der See direkt am Haus ist Gold wert.
Direkt um die Ecke, kann man sich für kleines Geld kayaks ausleihen. Wir haben damit ein Ausflug zu der Insel auf dem See gemacht. Das war auch super schön.
Es gibt auch Fahrräder, diese sind inclusive. Damit haben wir eine Tour gemacht und konnten das Auto stehen lassen um ins Dorf zu kommen. Einfach toll!
Die Eigentümer sind sehr freundlich. Eines Nachmittags, sind wir vom Ausflug zurück gekommen und hatten ein leckeren Wein in der Hängematte geschenkt bekommen. Das hat uns gefreut...
wir haben uns wohl gefühlt und werden gerne wieder kommen und das haus weiteremfehlen.
Danke sehr für alles.

Nostalgia za wloskim latem
Maly dom nad jeziorem -Lang's Lakehouse- nazwa nie wloska ale kosmopolityczna-
w San Feliciano nad Jeziorem Trasimeno w Umbrii. Wyjatkowe miejsce , w ktorym rzeczywistosc staje sie piekniejsza od marzen. Komfortowy domek z widokiem na jezioro, nieduzy ale super wyposazony. Piekna weranda, z ktorej mozna zachwycac sie wschodem i zachodem slonca. Tutaj przy stoliku, badz na lezaku z lampka wybornego wina i pizza, mozna delektowac sie widokiem zlotej tafli jeziora i chlonac cisze jakze pieknej natury. Tutaj przeciez wojowal Hannibal.......
W tym cudownym miejscu oddycha sie historie, klimat wloski, urok spelnionych wakacji. Lokalizacja i odnowiona struktura daja gwarancje udanego wypoczynku i wybornego relaksu. Polecam odwiedzajacym te okolice.

Lake Trasimeno is walking distance from the picture postcard village of San Feliciano. A short stroll to a number of excellent restaurants and activities, the Lakehouse is the perfect base to explore Umbria. Easily reachable are famous Umbrian hill towns such as Perugia, Assisi and Spello or drive into Tuscany and explore such famous towns as Montecpulciano, Cortona or Siena.

We have four bikes and helmets at the property plus a bike for a child without stabilisers. Guests are welcome to use these. There is a private taxi service within 2kms for day trips or visits to wineries. Walking / cycling tracks run beside the lake in both directions and circumnavigate the lake. The town ship of San Feliciano where there is a bank, post office, pharmacy, supermarket and restaurants is 3 minutes in a car or 2 kms by bike or foot. There are a number of good restaurants within walking distance as well as a cocktail bar and sailing school.
