L'Olmo, AGRITURISMO DI CHARME...
(the Elm Tree)
This exclusive Country Hotel lives in the heart of most suggestive Italy, in Umbria, nearby the ancient village of Bettona.
Romantic and truly charming, looks Assisi and the Umbra Valley, melted in the colors of the ground, oaks and the vineyards.
The “casale” and the old barn are pleasant, elegant, and perfectly in line with the building traditions: wood, bricks, ancient furniture, ceramics and carpets.
The old barn has been transformed with the techniques of the bio-architecture: the roof in ventilated wood with solar panels, the side coverings are realized with the straw of our fields.
The rooms and the mini apartments are strictly "no smoking".
Windows give the sight of uncontaminated landscapes and a great quiet. The valley Umbra, a garden of oaks, poplars and cypresses, is dominated by the Subasio Mountain on which Assisi lyes down. Assisi, the most enchanting city that at night appears crowned by its fortress as a great illuminated ship.
On the left the acropolis of Perugia, to the right Spello and and the park of the Sibylline Mountains.
This piece of paradise is animated by the wagging tails of our Leonbergers (a giant german dog breed) by the lovely energy of a couple of Welsh Corgi Pembroke (English shepherd dog) and, in the fields around, by the elegance of our Arab Horses (the most beautiful horse of the world).
All around, in only a bunch of minutes, you can find the most meaningful artistic attractions, the great landsape, the best wines and food: from Perugia to Gubbio, from Todi to Cascia, from Orvieto to Spello and Spoleto, Bevagna, Montefalco. And there are so many small medioeval villages and Renaissance towns, the restaurants, the wines, the local feasts, the thermal baths, the hills and the uncontaminated natural parks. The waters of the lake Trasimeno, of Piediluco, the Falls of the Marmore and the Valley of the Tevere River, the luxuriant and unique Val Nerina with the Sibylline Mountains and their rivers and Natural parks.
From the heart of Italy to the heart of the most important cities of art: Roma and Firenze are only at 1,5 hrs of car/train.
Other places of interest are at only one hour: Siena and its clays, Arezzo with the greatest “mercatino” of antiques, the enchanting Cortona, Viterbo and its thermal baths, the extraordinary and unique beauty of Civita di Bagno Regio; the whole Central Italy, from the Tyrrhenian to the Adriatic sea.
