Known as the “Green Heart of Italy,” the untouched landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Umbria are nothing less than enchanting. This relatively isolated region has allowed locals to take advantage of the gifts from Mother Nature to develop one of the most authentic cuisines in the country. Rolling hills lined with immaculate vineyards, and picturesque medieval towns with quiet cobbled streets; the region’s history is evident at every turn and every bite of flavorful cuisine. Situated in the peaceful hills between Gubbio and Perugia, our home for the week commands incredible views of over 28 gardens, terraced lawns, and verdant woodlands — and you’ll be able to soak it all in from the onsite saltwater pool or jacuzzi spa. Each of the 10 rooms is uniquely designed, each with a private bath. The furnishings adorning every room were collected from many distant journeys made by Paola and Irish, the owners of our Italian sanctuary. Throughout the week, personal chefs spoil us with healthy meals prepared with organic tomatoes, salad leaves, and aromatic herbs from the property’s garden.
