The estate is located between Amelia (5 km) and Lugnano in Teverina (5 km) and lies on a small hill at 450 m above sea level and offers a stunning panoramic view over the hills and the valleys all around. Surrounded by the large garden and the olive grove of around 2,000 trees, the typical Umbrian estate of the 17th century still preserves its unique original threshing floor built with hand-made bricks, used by local farmers for threshing grain by hand until some decades ago.

Spending a holiday at the Podere means breathing the air of tranquillity and serenity of times past, when time went by slowly and the contact with nature and its fruits was of primary importance for life. The atmosphere here is hospitable and friendly, ideal for relaxing and tasting the farm’s typical local products, such as extra virgin olive oil, olives in brine, honey, as well as season fruits and vegetables. The family, owners of the agriturismo, speak Italian, English and German and personally welcome you to make you feel at home! 

The podere is also a perfect base for walking and cycling. If you like excursions, an Environmental Excursion-Guide will accompany you on tours of different length and difficulty, including, for example, Mounts Sibillini. Lovers of beauty and wellness, instead, can choose among the different treatment packages offered on spot in collaboration with the Professional Wellness Centre of Amelia.

The estate is ideally situated for touring the area being close to a wealth of charming towns such as Todi, Orvieto, Narni, Spoleto, the Marmore Waterfalls and Bomarzo (Park of Monsters), and within easy reach, by road (one hour) or rail (1 and a half hour), of Rome, Perugia and Assisi, the town of St Francis.

The private swimming pool (6x12) is in a private position and offers a wide panoramic view of the surrounding hills. It is equipped with sun loungers, deck chairs, umbrellas, tables and chairs. The structure is in accordance with current safety laws.

Originally the Podere was a monastery, whose church was later used as a stable by the local farmers. Restored around ten years ago, the old stable has been converted into a spacious living room of 140 sq.m, which still shows the four 17th cent. arches, originating in the common central column. The room has a nice fireplace, kitchen and bathroom as well as tables and chairs, sofas, colour TV, DVD reader, stereo, radio, table games, books and is the available for guests as a common living room. It is also used for lectures and seminars as well as for dinners, weddings and private parties.

The four apartments, Foresteria, Starlet, Luna and Elio, totally independent and of different sizes, overlook the large garden, where guests can have a table and chairs for outdoor dining. Barbecues, an outdoor wood oven and mountain bikes are also available for healthy country itineraries.

Outside, the large garden in front of the house is shaded by large trees and seats tables and chairs for outdoor breakfasts.
