On a fascinating hill, between the views of the splendid Umbrian countryside surrounding the Trasimeno Lake, we find the farmhouses, which can offer you a quiet and friendly atmosphere
This building complex is part of a larger property: a big farm of more than 210 ha, ran with modern technologies and specialized in high quality products (wine, oil, cereals, fruits, etc). All farm products are available to the guests.
The agricultural activities are conducted in completely recently restored farmhouses and in a former convent structure (The Cloister “Il Convento”) which, thanks to the high standard of quality of the services, stands out as the best farm holidays offer.
The “Cloister” is composed of seven apartments and one independent villa.
The indoors are elegantly decorated and further enhanced by antiques and period furniture to keep the flavour of the old country houses.
We prefer non to have pets on the main building to respect other guests. On the private villas pets are allowed on request.
The History:
The cloister (“Il Convento”) belonged to the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor and used to be one of the most important centres of the Trasimeno area.
The Convento dates back to the XV century and has a colourful cloister and an old pit.
It is located beneath the Monte Pietrarvella, 1,5 km from the Municipalities of Paciano and Panicale and right in the middle of a wood land of about 18-20 ha, of which about a square mile was surrounded by a boundary wall to limit the property of the Order.
This building complex is made up of a part which had been left neglected after the closure of the convent, while another part (from the XIX century) was partially brought down. Nowadays this complex, preserved by the Ministry of the Artistic and Cultural Heritage, includes the former church of the old convent, a former inhabited space and a parcel in the dining hall - the whole being surrounded by a gorgeous, uncontaminated vegetation
