In the middle of the green heart of Umbria, we stay in an attractive Italian country house, hidden between vineyards, olive groves and extensive forests that give the landscape its character and peace. Throughout the trip, this authentic country house is our exclusive base, a place where the pace slows naturally and where each day begins and ends in an atmosphere of simplicity and sophistication.
The manor is located near the medieval village of Montegiove, which grew around the 13th-century Castello di Montegiove. The surrounding forests reveal a world deeply rooted in nature: truffles, mushrooms, and wild herbs grow here, while animals such as wild boar, deer, and pheasants roam freely in their natural habitat. Amidst this setting, we experience the authentic Italian outdoor lifestyle—in complete tranquility, with an eye for detail and comfort, and with the space to slow down, connect, and truly enjoy everything this special place has to offer.
