    On one side, the soft, wooded hills with their superb views stretching as far as the mountains of Lazio and Le Marche, and on the other, the views of the arid and fascinating Val d'Orcia, offer a dimension of nature that surprises and involves. We wish your staying with us to be a truly rewarding experience and in order to offer you the Italian experience you are looking for we are happy to assist you and provide all the advice and information you might need during your staying.

If you want to consider doing something sportive with your family, kids, friends or group, you can opt for our guided canoe or paddle tour of Lake Trasimeno, and combine it with a guided hike of its small island named Isola Maggiore. You can also have a wine tasting event at Via della Stella of our friend Chiara Vinciarelli. Upon request Chiara also combines this wine tasting with a lunch.
