In the heart of the green Umbrian countryside, just 12kms from Perugia and 15 from Lago Trasimeno, “Palazzo Grande Residenza d’Epoca” is a splendid 17th century villa situated in the centre of a vast 30-hectare estate.
The park contains a large swimming pool and the remains of a small Arcadia: ruins, statues, grottoes and fountains… - an ideal place for relaxation, surrounded by the tranquility of a secular wood, an olive grove, a cherry and walnut trees and farmland which recall the Roman period when the place was the setting of a ‘rustic villa’.
Many centuries later, between 1846 and 1861, the aristocratic medieval building hosted the Papal Delegation, and in 1961, the Generosi family who still live there, bought the villa which had been abandoned, and renovated it to its ancient splendour.
Today, the aristocratic renaissance building, with austere exterior, surprises its guests with the richness of the interior which still has the atmosphere of an aristocratic building: salon with 17th century frescoes, decorated panelled ceiling and a large fireplace with aristocratic coat of arms, other delightful rooms for cocktails, tea or reading, a chapel with rare Neo-Gothic altar and lastly,19 elegantly and comfortably furnished spacious bedrooms that have preserved the fascination of centuries past and the warmth of a country house with original furniture, paintings and objects.
Close to the delightful town of Corciano, this historic hotel is the ideal place for those looking for privacy, a friendly welcome and attentive service for maximum well-being – all close to the art cities that are now famous all over the world; namely Perugia, Assisi, Spoleto or Arezzo.
There are arrangements with local guides and businesses for sporting and cultural excursions and outings to countless events, festivals, ‘sagre’ (tasting festivals) and amusements which are happening one after the other throughout the year.
Tennis court and five-a-side football pitch, a large riding stables next to the property, ‘percorso vita’ life route in the wood. and gym in the villa allow those who desire it, to keep fit and just a few minutes away by car, there are 3 international-level golf courses. Completing the facilities are meeting rooms with the most modern equipment and, on request, minibus shuttle service and private car to and from Perugia, the station or the airport.
