Umbria
The green heart of Italy — quiet villages, saintly hills, slow time.
Heritage & Landscape
The Quiet Heart of Italy
Umbria is Italy without the rush — a landlocked region of forested mountains, medieval hill-towns and Roman aqueducts. Where Tuscany dazzles, Umbria whispers; where Tuscany performs, Umbria contemplates.
Our estates here are sequestered amongst olive groves and oak woods, often within walking distance of millennia-old monasteries and truffle-rich valleys. This is the Italy of saints, scholars and slow suppers.
