This farmhouse that date back to the 19th century is situated in the centre of Umbria, between Assisi and Perugia , Todi and Montefalco.
This farmhouse, peculiar for the nice interiors and the naturalistic context in which is set, sprang up with apartments and swimming pool inside a two hundred and eight hectares farm immersed in a still uncontaminated land, on the top of a hill four hundred

It is the right place for a relaxing holiday in contact with the nature, a pleasant wholesome experience with food and local wines.
One hundred and eighty hectares consist of wood in which one can find every species of trees; ilexes, chestnuts, firs etc.

The remaining twenty-eight hectares that encircle the farmhouse contain a century old olive grove to which more than one thousand younger olive trees have been added. This land does not know chemical fertilizer such and herbicides.
All the plants are well kept and pruned only by expert hands.
A careful restore of the main farmhouse produced eight similar apartments of sixty square metres each, 5 of

which on the ground floor and 3 on the first floor, all with independent entrance, composed of a double bedroom, a living room with double sofa bed, kitchen or kitchenette corner, bathroom.

PRODUCTS of the farm:
The main product is extra virgin olive oil.
90% of olives come from mulberry tree and 10% (ten for cent) ilex tree.
