Dating from as early as the 8th Century and named as the oldest hotel structure in Italy, this is the rare chance to purchase a unique boutique hotel that was once home to Benedictine monks cardinals and popes.
Set on a green wooded hillside with spectacular views across to Orvieto on its rock platform dominating the valley, the sale includes ca. 3,500 sq m of buildings set in 16 hectares of land.
The main building is divided into a restaurant with professional kitchen, offices and reception rooms, ground floor suites and guest reception whilst the top two floors offer a lecture room and additional guest suites. Storage and service rooms can be found in the basement. The characteristic twelve-sided tower dating from 1103 and Romanesque Abbey of San Severus and Martyrius are property of the state but are offered for weddings, ceremonies and events of up to 200 guests.
With marble floors and sacristy frescoes dating from the 13th Century this is a sort after location for around 40-50 weddings annually.
The land included in the sale is approximately 16 hectares; 12 ha of woodland, olive groves and arable land whilst the remainder is formed of landscaped gardens, park and paved areas.
An open-air building that was once the refectory for the monks provides the perfect setting for concerts and banquets.
The romantic swimming pool area lies to the rear of the property and has an additional 200 sqm of volume below to create a spa and treatment rooms.
Services include air-conditioning, satellite TV, Wi-Fi, mains gas heating and spring water.
