Since pre-Roman times, vineyards have been cultivated to produce the ruby red Sagrantino wine of Montefalco. This agriturismo produces its own fine version of this wine, and thus takes its name from it. Out of the six apartments here, the one we offer is the only one to have its own covered terrace. There is ample parking.
On the ground floor you will find a well-decorated living room with a cosy open fireplace and a kitchen/dining room well-equipped with a gas stove, oven and fridge/freezer. There is a shower room with WC, etc. and two large, well-furnished twin/double bedrooms. The shared swimming pool is delightful. Measuring 12m x 6m and with a 1.20m-2.40m depth, it is furnished and boasts a hydro-massage.
Upon request, the on site owners will prepare simple, delicious meals which are directly payable. The good local food and hydro-massage contribute to Il Sagrantino’s particularly relaxing atmosphere, perfect for couples or family holidays.
Please note: the swimming pool is open between 15th May and 30th September (weather permitting).
Giano dell'Umbria is the nearest town but the people of Montefalco are only nine kilometres away, looking down over the rest of Umbria from their Ringhiera d'Umbria, a high panoramic balcony that affords views even as far as Assisi and Perugia. Apart from the views, Montefalco's characteristically narrow lanes will lead you to all the essential shops, bars chemists and banks, as well as the gorgeous collection of Renaissance frescoes in the church of Saint Francis.
Umbria is one of Italy's most unspoilt regions. It is often referred to as the "Green Heart of Italy" due to its beautiful woodlands and rolling hills. It truly looks like a post card perfect world. Umbria is one of the only landlocked regions in Italy. It is bordered by Marches, Latium, and Tuscany. Umbria has the fourth lowest population of the twenty Italian regions at about 826000 persons.
Approximately 40% of Umbria is covered in beautiful woodland area. Stands of olives grow sporadically across the region and beautiful villas dot the country side. Small villages and romantic medieval castles capture the hearts of visitors. Numerous small rivers and streams flow through the picturesque region. The bubbling springs of Clitunno, which are formed by the waters of the river Topino are a popular tourist destination. Also popular are the Marmore Falls where tourists come for the beneficial mineral waters that cascade gloriously down the mountain side.
While the beautiful countryside does a great deal to draw tourist to Umbria, it is its art and history that captures the imaginations of people from distant lands. Umbria is the host to many wonderful artistic and historical relics. Beautiful examples of medieval and Renaissance art can be found in nearly every small town. Wonderful frescos such as those in the famous St. Francis basilica are well preserved and lovingly adored by the people of the region. Churches, governmental, buildings, and theatres from the Roman Empire to the High Renaissance still stand virtually unchanged by time as a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of man. Tourist may also enjoy a visit to any number of ceramic, pottery, and artisan studios in the region for a glimpse of old world hand crafting techniques still in use today. Umbria is also home to many museums and cultural centres that cater to the educational interests of visitors.
