“A gorgeous pale-stone Abbey, perched in the Umbrian hills. A country escape steeped in history, with all the comforts of a hotel. Beautiful cloisters, traditional rooms and family suites with Benedictine origins — stone floors, wooden beams, paintings — great food and lovely gardens. ”

Hotel review

This lovely old abbey, built in pale stone and spectacularly situated on a hillside in the Valnerina, has 8th-century origins and a graceful cloister. It successfully combines the comforts of a hotel with the ambience of its past; bedrooms are in the ex-monks’ cells.
