Agriturismo il Piano
We offer comfortable apartments in our restored farmhouse in a peaceful rural valley, surrounded by organic fruit orchards. Come enjoy the green heart of Umbria!
location & activities
Località il Piano is a working organic farm in the rural Valnerina, near the village of Paterno and about 25 minutes from the city of Spoleto, in the region of Umbria. The Valnerina is the magnificent green valley of the Nera River, offering spectacular scenery, beautiful stone villages and churches, rich in history. It is a candidate site for UNESCO World Heritage recognition.
Many of our guests choose to rent a car and take day trips to surrounding areas including Spoleto, Cascia, Norcia, Spello, Assisi, Perugia, Orvieto and Todi. Others use public transportation, or enjoy some of the numerous local hiking trails including the old Spoleto-Norcia rail line, rafting on the Nera River or trekking with donkeys or mules.
Most people enjoy just hanging out on the farm - visiting the animals, relaxing under the ancient oak trees, participating in milking the cow, learning about vegetables in the garden, tasting our unusual and heritage fruit varieties, or participating in on-farm educational activities. See our contact information page for detailed directions on how to find the farm.
accomodations & prices
Our stone farmhouse has been restored with careful attention to local tradition and selection of natural materials, with antique wooden furniture, beeswax-sealed terracotta floors and huge chestnut beams. We have two apartments available for short-term rental, which each can comfortably host 4-5 people. The two adjacent apartments can be connected to create an accomodation for 10 (+) people.
Guests are welcome to use the large green space outside of the front door for outdoor dining (there is a picnic table), relaxing (there is a hammock) and playing (there is a treehouse). We have abundant free parking available. Guests are welcome to explore our 50 hectares of orchards, pastures and woods, follow local CAI trails, or hike down to the Nera River.
We live on the lower floor of the farmhouse, and so are often available if you need help or a recommendation for a restaurant. Our organic farm produce is available for sale, with seasonal variations.
Price per night per apartment is 105 euros for up to 5 people, plus a 35 euros one-time cleaning fee. The minimum length of stay is 3 nights, and rates are significantly discounted for weekly or longer stays.
