Timeless retreat in the heart of the Umbrian countryside
Castello di Reschio is a slice of timeless Italy. A grand estate huddled amidst the rolling green hills of Umbria, this is a place made for romantics and intrepid travellers alike. Imagine centuries-old stone and Cypress trees wreathed in mist. The silence of a sun-drenched morning, broken only by the distant echo of cantering Andalusian horses. Come here for adventure or relaxation – and leave utterly enchanted.
Rooms come courtesy of nine bespoke farmhouses dotted across a 1,500-hectare landscape. Each one has been exquisitely renovated, with vintage furniture complementing the original stone. Feast on locally-inspired dishes at the Alle Scuderie restaurant, which prides itself on using homemade produce – including honey, olive oil, pasta, and wine. And if you want to work off all that indulgence, why not make the most of your private swimming-pool or the estate’s state-of-the-art tennis courts?

Take in stunning vineyard-filled vistas on horseback, on mountain bike or on foot. Pack a picnic and breathe in the scent of the meadows by the lake. If you fancy venturing into the world beyond, the hilltop town of Cortona is only a short drive away. It boasts evidence of Umbria’s ancient Etruscan past – plus an impressive Renaissance cathedral.
Enjoy your stay!
