Farm Holiday Convento Di Agghielli

A world of uncontaminated produce, of technology put to work in protecting the environment from electro-magnetic pollution, of materials that allow the visitor to breath in the natural surroundings . . . this is what makes us unique across the whole spectrum of Italian hospitality. The 16 mixed units of the resort all enjoy the widespread use of terra cotta flooring, lime and earthen paintwork, natural woodwork, bedding in cotton, latex and coconut, linseed oil and natural wax, untreated cottons and linens, screened electrical wiring, paper sheathing and non-woven fabrics, pressed cork with no glues – and not least, all-natural products for cleansing the body, the linens and the surroundings. All this makes for exclusive and ecologically friendly hospitality.

The accommodation available within the Convento di Agghielli comprises eleven suites and five double bedrooms. The eleven elegant suites – made up of bedroom, living room and bathroom with shower –can accommodate from two to five people, with a total capacity to sleep 30 individuals.

All the units are equipped to the highest level of comfort: refrigerated bar, satellite TV with video recorder or DVD, radio, telephone with outside line, central heating, pivot windows with security screens, emergency lighting.

...Notes and Curiosity

The dishes served at the Convento di Agghielli are intimately linked to the immediate area and its products – a cuisine made up from research into forgotten flavours and fragrances, the rediscovery of ancient recipes which date back to the times of the Romans and the Etruscans. You are invited to taste again dishes both peasant and patrician from a long Umbrian tradition, served with the most careful choice of ingredients.

Fruit and vegetables are grown on the grounds of the Convent according to the rules and rhythms of nature. They are certified organic and bio-dynamic. There is no use of chemical fertilisers or weedkillers; the colour and taste come straight from the earth itself.

Livestock runs free in the wild meadows that surround the resort. Its gradual growth makes for lean and flavoursome meat. Red meats are bought from a biologically certified supplier. Every day the kitchen bakes its own fresh bread and the winemaker draws from our own barrels to bring to the table in a decanter.

...Others Services

Those who love walking can easily reach the little villages close to the Convent or visit the animals on our farm, all raised within our fenced green meadows: sheep, turkeys, geese, pigs, rabbits. Also available are mountain bikes for exploring the immediate surroundings or heading further afield in the woods. We have reopened ancient pathways which were previously abandoned, so it is possible to discover ever new places immersed in the greenery. From the middle of July to early September it is possible every day to take advantage of our Centre for Creative Well-being, where you can have an ayurvedic massage, a high-pressure hydro-massage or a steam bath, or take part in joint exercise sessions and group relaxation.
