Once perhaps this peaceful and very private property was a nunnery, the House of the Sisters. It has been restored to provide light filled rooms, well appointed to take advantage of the views of rolling wooded hills framed in each opening.

A courtyard with two ancient mulberry trees leads you into the accommodation and there are 4 bedrooms and spacious living areas on the ground and first floor. There are 2 separate guesthouses with en-suite bedrooms and attached to one is the laundry. The dining room with sliding glass doors at either end open completely with the doors disappearing into the walls allowing free flow from courtyard to pool.

Hiding beneath the splendid double height kitchen is a wonderful dome shaped wine cellar and it can be glimpsed through an ocular window in the polished cement floor of the kitchen.

The swimming pool leaps out at right angles from the pool lounge and a shallow stepped cascade leads you down to the 16m x 4m pool with three infinity edges. The woods approach the house and bordering the pool are old quince trees.

Within the walls of the castle is this pocket-sized chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary, perfect for intimate celebrations. Restored by the family while Count Benedikt and Donna Nencia Bolza lived in the castle with their five children, the walls are covered with fine monochrome frescoes, trompe l’oeil columns and delicate floral paintings. On the back wall is a fresco that tells the story of the Bolza family and their origins.

With a talented team of chefs can create just about anything. One-off meals, full-time catering, parties and feasts – you’re in good hands. Simple summer salads from our synergic kitchen garden, Umbrian feasts on your sun-dappled terrace, a relaxed evening with pizzas hot out of the outdoor oven…anything is possible.

Each house has its own dedicated housekeeper who ensures everything is ready for arrival, no matter the time of day or night. Bedrooms are filled with just-picked flowers, bathrooms stocked with our bespoke Ortigia products, and kitchen pantries filled with local essentials: fruit, milk, yoghurt, cheese, prosciutto, pasta, and our homemade torta di cioccolato.

The estate drivers know their way around, whether you need a quick hop from the airport, or a full-day excursion around Tuscany and Umbria’s delightful hilltop villages and medieval towns. Helicopter trips are also available on request.

Activities can be arranged, clay pigeon shooting, fishing, truffle hunting, tennis, cooking classes and cycling including electric bikes.
