| In the heart of Italy, between Umbria and Tuscany, Trasimeno Lake is surrounded by rolling hills: the most important of these is Monte Solare, famous since ancient times for its Sun worshipping cult. Here in the green of the olives, vines and woods an ancient patrician villa and its centuries old farmhouses were converted into a luxury hotel in 1989.Since then, under the custody of the owners Filippo and Rosi Iannarone, Villa di Monte Solare has offered its guests charm and tranquillity together with courtesy and distinction.The restaurant, with its exclusively Umbrian staff, offers wonderful traditional cuisine and the Cantina offers a choice of more than four hundred Umbrian wines to complement your meals.The vast estate includes ancient parkland, two swimming pools, a tennis court, trails to be explored on foot or by bicycle and a Spa & Beauty Farm offering a wide range of massages and beauty treatments.Golfing programs on the two nearby courses, traditional cookery courses and dietary cookery courses and cultural excursions in Umbria and Tuscany are organised throughout the year.The music season runs from May to October, with concerts performed in the Villa’s Santa Lucia chapel every Tuesday evening. At Villa di Monte Solare you’ll discover that every day is a day to remember and another reason to come back. |
