Luxury Meets History
Panicale has been recognized as one of the “Borghi più belli d’Italia” (Most Beautiful Villages of Italy). It is located in Umbria on the border with Tuscany. Umbria is called the “green heart” of Italy because of its central location and natural landscape. Olive trees fill the fields and line the roads, representing olive oil as an important part of local culture.
Rastrello is the Italian word for the hand rake used to gently pluck ripe olives from the tree. For us, it is the symbol of family and friends coming together in the olive grove to share the age-old beauty of the harvest.
Panicale is situated equidistance from Rome and Florence, with a fast train to each city leaving from Chiusi (20 minute drive from Panicale). We cater to the world traveler who wants to experience the “real” Italy, the typical Italian village, away from the big cities. Even though Panicale is small, there are a few wonderful restaurants and cafes to choose from, all of which are only a minute walk from the hotel. Panicale is a close drive to many lovely Umbrian towns, such as Perugia, Assisi, Orvieto, Solomeo, Montefalco, Gubbio and Deruta. With Tuscany so close, it is also very easy to drive to Chiusi, Cortona, Siena, Pienza, Montepulciano and Arezzo.
