Modern minimal kitchen

The living room & main kitchen are located on the 1st floor of the house. They constitute the original core of the living quarters with a remarkable basalt stone fireplace. The terracotta floors and wooden beams, all dating from the fourteenth century are carefully restored. The introduction of the modern minimal kitchen and furnishings creates a unique synergy that makes the space at once comfortable, poetic, yet respectful of its 'original soul'.

The wine cellar and caves,an old Roman water cistern, still plastered in its original hydraulic plaster, has been transformed into a truly unique wine cellar of highly selected local wines for the guests' delight. It is accessed through a medieval set of caves and tunnels dug fully into the rock which also connect the house to the garden. It is a magical experience to walk through and being able to enjoy these unusual underground spaces.

All kind of activities can be arranged at request (separate prices).

All kind of activities will be organized during summer. Umbria Winter Jazz (end of December) in Orvieto is a true pleasure if you would spend for instance your Christmas and New Year holidays at the property.

Civita di Bagnoregio is a unique destination: a pristine Medieval village on a promontory set in a vast valley carved into volcanic rock by two rivers. The only connection to the modern world is a footbridge by which you will travel the last half mile of your voyage into another world, virtually untouched by modern life. This town founded by the Etruscans, conquered by the Romans, shaped by the architecture of the Middle Ages and Renaissance is located in central Italy in the Lazio region at the border with Umbria. It survives and thrives in the heart of the Alta Tuscia, the beautiful and historically rich land of the Etruscans, and offers a gateway not only to the past but to many beautiful villages and towns in southern Tuscany, western Umbria, and northern Lazio. If you are travelling by car, Civita di Bagnoregio is 15 minutes south of the Orvieto exit on the A1 highway connecting Rome to Florence, 15 minutes east of the ancient Via Cassia connecting Rome to Siena. The closest train station is Orvieto which is only 15 minutes away and about an hour’s ride from Rome. The closest airport is in Perugia but Rome’s Fiumicino airport is the most convenient for international travel (1.5 hours away).   While this house is a wonderfully isolated, almost otherworldly spot, an oasis of tranquility and romance, there are several restaurants and 2 café / bars in town. You can find all the other amenities required for a pleasant stay in its sister city of Bagnoregio--the town on the other side of the footbridge and less than a mile away. This includes banks, a gas station, a weekly market, a supermarket, bakeries, and all the other wonderful shops a typical small Italian town has to offer.
