Accomodation - Destinazione Subasio

In Bevagna, in the heart of Umbria, on the Sagrantino wine road, is the farmhouse "La Fonte", offering guests an ideal holiday for those who desire peace and tranquillity and want to enjoy the historical and priceless artistic riches that the surrounding area has to offer. The farmhouse, with a panoramic view over the valley of Mount Subasio, on whose slopes lie Assisi and Spello, consists of four flats, renovated with the love and taste of those who know this land, cosily furnished and equipped with every comfort.The farmhouse has a private swimming pool, barbecue, shaded parking space and an outdoor veranda with pergola for each flat, as well as free Wi-Fi. Within the private, fenced-in property of about 25 hectares, made up of olive groves, vineyards and woods, it is possible to go for walks and excursions on mountain bikes, see the animals bred on the farm and if you are lucky, meet small wild animals such as squirrels, porcupines, hares and buzzards. Those who wish can participate in farm work such as the grape and olive harvest. In addition, you will be able to taste the exceptional extra virgin olive oil and the famous Sagrantino wine produced by the company.Bevagna is a municipality of 5,024 inhabitants in the province of Perugia in Umbria, once known for the fine cloths produced there, so much so that they were called 'bevagne'. It is listed among the most beautiful villages in Italy. A Roman municipality (Mevania), it experienced prosperity during the imperial era. Roman vestiges (the theatre, the thermal baths with valuable mosaics, the remains of a 2nd century A.D. temple and a Roman Domus) and evocative mediaeval architecture combine to make a visit to this urban centre enjoyable. The most important monuments include the Palazzo dei Consoli, dating back to 1270, which currently houses the Teatro Torti; Piazza Silvestri, which is one of the most important medieval squares in the region and is overlooked by the Church of San Michele, built towards the end of the 12th century, and the Church of San Silvestro, completed in 1195. In the municipal museum, there are paintings of the Umbrian school and valuable sculptures. Every year, in the last ten days of the month of June, Bevagna returns to its ancient medieval commune. The Mercato delle Gaite (the old name for the town quarters) re-enacts processions, competitions and the preparation of traditional recipes in the classic 'Taverne'; everything is revived in the evocative period costumes that the citizens wear with festive and casual custom.
