Umbria in a former Convent

Umbria Relais 

Relais l’Antico Convento was originally a monastery, which dates back to medieval times, transformed today into a splendid Relais after a restoration that has preserved its charm and beauty. We offer our guests hospitality in our charming apartments, in which we have created a comfortable and welcoming environment.

Away from the stress and hectic pace of everyday life, you can rediscover the modus vivendi of Latin thinkers, where the art of living is not the pursuit of luxury and pomp but the recapturing of  natural rhythms of time, and join us in the discovery of the  5 senses  of  the meaning of the world around us.

Periodically we present special offers  which not only include savings but also propose ideas and itineraries to experience Umbria in all its richness and beauty.

To take back  the natural rhythms of time and discover with us the 5 senses of the world around us.
