What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
A late 18th-century manor house in the Friuli plain, still mid-restoration by the family who bought it, which is part of its appeal.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Cornfields and acacia woods surround the village, with local osmize taverns and the Stella River Nature Reserve nearby.
The rooms
Rooms have textured plaster walls and exposed timber beams, with beds made in rumpled linen and loom-woven blankets.
At the table
Breakfast is laid out under timber beams, with moka coffee, warm apple cake, and local goat cheese.
How it began
The family is restoring the 18th-century villa by hand, dedicating rooms to their grandmother, who once served poet Hermann Hesse.
