Local wines such as the red of Montefalco and the Decugnano dei Barbi will nicely accompany your meal. The Valnerina's area wich is just 5 kms from the house, is a place to visit.

4 out of 5	Very spacious and pleasant surroundings. Great spot to make your home base in the region. Fusaroli - Nov 22, 2009
5 out of 5	A beautiful stone house. We really enjoyed our stay. The village is tiny but very friendly. Despite being furnished with antiques the house was family friendly and was a relaxing place to stay with 3 small children. The owner was very helpful and speaks good English. Lots to see and do in the surrounding area and a garden area with great fews in which to relax. Fusaroli - Nov 22, 2009
5 out of 5	Four of us traveling together had a lovely time at Verde Umbria. The accommodation was even more attractive than its photos and beautifully equipped. Our hostess, Eleanora, was charming and very helpful. We would recommend this excellent house in its tiny village to anyone! We loved Umbria." Fusaroli - Nov 22, 2009
