This pretty country hotel Santa Maria degli Ancillotti retreat is also a farm producing fine virgin olive oil, wine, vegetables and fruit.
Santa Maria Degli Ancillotti offers much more: utter peace, glorious views, wonderful walks, a magnificent pool and beautiful accommodation. The 8 immaculate suites are as good as the food.
They are spacious and comfortable with lovely double or twin rooms, a well appointed shower room and a separate living/ dining room with sofa bed and small stocked fridge. [panoramic photo by aeroplane]
The lovingly polished wooden furniture has been hand made right down to the soap holders and towel racks in the excellent shower rooms. The pretty embroidered "Punto di Assisi" curtains are hand sewn and add the finishing touch of homely comfort.
During the renovations some Roman artifacts were discovered; fragments of amphorae, ceramics and majolica dishes can be seen in the farm¹s chapel and gardens. This is a wonderful spot to explore on foot or by bike (mountain bikes are provided free of charge - as are archery and bocce).
Santa Maria Degli Ancillotti is set on a verdant hillside with panoramic views over the plain and Assisi. Perugia is only 20 minutes away and just a little further are Montefalco and Spello. Deruta (famous for ceramics), Gubbio, fabulous Todi and Cortona are also less than an hour away.
Santa Maria Degli Ancillotti offers you also possibility you walk with horses or bikes for paths of Regional Park of Mountain Subasio.
Set in the heart of Umbria, this is the perfect base for visiting the magnificent and historical towns and villages in the spectacular and panoramic countryside.
