03/09/2024: ...what can I say? If you are looking for tranquility, friendliness, a family atmosphere, you will find it all here. Immersed in nature with views of the Umbrian countryside from Assisi to Foligno. A swim in the pool among the olive trees, ending the day with good food that certainly never disappoints! Absolutely worth returning!
02/09/2024: This is an exceptional Agriturismo in southern Umbria. It is set in the most picturesque location, up in the hills with views out over the valley below, all they way across to Assisi. It feels really remote and tranquil, but is still only a 10 minute drive down to the main highway, so gives easy access to Perugia, Assisi, Spello, etc.
The hosts (Luca and Matteo, plus their dog Margot!) couldn't have been more helpful, always looking after us with everything we needed, whether that was an afternoon espresso, or recommendations for activities and gelato.
The evening meals cooked by Matteo were exceptional too. It felt like fine dining, with wonderful (very local) wine, but at a fraction of the price. Eating on the terrace is a blissful way to spend the evening.
Both the food and the accommodation are incredible value too.
The swimming pool is perfect too, with the shade of olive trees and incredible views over the valley.
We were a family of 4, and couldn't recommend Il Corvezzolo highly enough. Hopefully we'll be back one day!
