What they say
Two Michelin Keys
Michelin
three distinct ‘villages,’ each one serving a different purpose for guests, but all constructed in a similar contemporary-classic style
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Marked walking trails wind across forested hills toward views of Lake Trasimeno, just outside the quiet medieval village of Piegaro.
The rooms
Restored stone walls and timber ceilings frame cotto etrusco tiles, while select suites feature deep soaking tubs and private gardens.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Sun loungers line the outdoor swimming pool, set along terraced lawns beside the estate tennis court.
The spa
Corner windows look out over rolling hills from the indoor hydromassage pool, beside an outdoor heated whirlpool.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Ristorante Essenza
Dishes incorporate estate-grown saffron and olive oil, served inside the dining room or out on the panoramic terrace.
How it began

The Galletti family spent eight years restoring the twelfth-century Camaldolese hermitage and stone farmhouses across this historic organic agricultural estate.
