Bellissimo! Get swept away by the history and centuries-old character at this beautiful and deeply personal residence turned B&B. We love the emphasis on art mixed in with the surviving frescoes and carefully selected and authentic period antiques. The location? Magical…
Crossing a footbridge to get anywhere immediately creates a romantic escapist vibe and this amazing location is no exception. Built high on a mountaintop above vast canyons below, this 12th-century hilltop town is a jewel that will transport you far back in time.
Romantic and majestic, the 16th-century citadel and former Bishops palace that resides here has retained all of its charm and personality from the middle ages and has been lovingly restored.
Enchanting and historic, the authentic character and structural attributes are evident throughout, with original frescoes, stonework, and centuries-old architectural influences.
With lush, eye-catching, and densely vibrant interiors that are elegant without being overwhelming, the selection and coordination of authentic period decor harmonizes perfectly with some interesting and whimsical touches.
With four unique and gorgeous suites, you'll be hard-pressed to choose just one. Each possesses unique characteristics, art, and treasures and a meticulous eye for detail. With saturated colors infused throughout and beautiful garden views, each suite features a living area and full en suite bath and fireplace.
You'll be pampered by the owners every morning with a delicious homemade breakfast in the magnificent gardens after which you can enjoy the company of other guests and stroll the grounds or hang out in the kitchen area where there's always something happening. Or, venture down to the ancient cellar that has been transformed into a lounge with fireplace and piano to relax and enjoy.
Preserved and honored as a testament to the graceful style and architecture of it's time, this enchanting and memorable home is full of art, history and life along with old-world magic that invites you into the past.
