Borgo Il Poeta

I think I may be the greatest fan of this beautiful place. I have stayed here four times in the last several years. When there are so many other options, that tells you how exceptional it is. This time I went with 18 family members. One of the unusual qualities is that it can house so many comfortably. A perfect place for any large destination event. Many of my family had never visited this part of Italy. They were all impressed with the beauty, comfort, quiet and convenience of Borgo il Poeta. And the beds are fabulous!! Not only is it the most elegantly designed and decorated residence but so many of the gorgeous hilltop villages that one wants to visit are within an hour by car and we explored most of them. I suppose, in the end, one of the most important elements that made our visit so remarkable was the “Mayor” or manager of this property, Gabriele Conrado. He became our muse long before we even arrived by helping us facilitate so many things that made our trip easier. I know our visit would not have been so magical without him. He made all of our Italian dreams possible, including my beloved cousin getting to see the Pope. We are thinking about adopting him and his lovely Sophia. It was difficult to leave him behind. The good news is that he will be there for any of you who make the choice of visiting this graceful and memorable place. Francesca

Stunning country house with luxurious, modern comforts. Amazing location - silent and secluded but close to great dining and interesting site-seeing options.... if you ever want to leave the pool in summer or your cosy fireplace in the cooler months. The perfect Umbrian location for for a romantic getaway or a relaxing holiday with family. Gabriele and Sofia are wonderful hosts, going out of their way to ensure that my stay was perfect!

From the greeting on arrival to the day we left Borgo il Poeta was a wonderful place to stay. The property we stayed in was wonderful, lovely decorations, furniture and importantly an extremely comfy bed. This is a place to reflect and relax. Perfect for exploring the wonderful area of Umbria. Thank you, your a great host Gabriele.

I could imagine everything but finding a simply spectacular village fully furnished with great style and so welcoming surrounded by nature pampered by the chirping of birds was a great surprise.

My wife, my parents and my in-laws spent 2 incredible nights at Borgo il Poeta in Umbria. We were given Casa Tettoia which was absolutely perfect for our needs! This is our second time at the Borgo and I can honestly say that this is the BEST place to be while traveling between Umbria and Tuscany! Conveniently located in the greenest hearth of Italy, near Gubbio, Assisi, Lake Trasimeno, Siena and Florence. Casa Tettoia was immaculate clean, spacious, warm with a beautiful huge real fireplace and a spectacular outdoor veranda with incredible view of the Tiber Valley. The "Mayor' of the Borgo Gabriele and his wife Sofia are INCREDIBLE hosts! We are recommending this place to ANYONE who wants privacy, luxury, exclusivity and yet so close to all major tourist attractions in Umbria and Tuscany. We WILL be back!
