Among the hills on which Todi and Collevalenza lie is the imposing Eremo (Hermitage) Santa Barbara, a splendid historic residence dating back to the 12th century. Immersed in the peaceful Umbrian countryside, it dominates the valley and the surrounding countryside with an all-round view. The external walls in exposed stone, the wooden-beamed ceilings and the stylish furniture give the guest the sensation of a dive into the past. Eremo Santa Barbara fully reflects the Umbrian architectural tradition and lends itself perfectly to welcoming large groups who wish to share the spacious and welcoming common areas and, at the same time, have their own private space. In fact, the structure offers a unique opportunity to organise events and receptions in its large indoor and outdoor areas and also has eight very elegant bedrooms, distributed in two separate wings, finely finished and equipped with air conditioning and each with private bathroom. Outdoors, in the vast, completely fenced-in park that surrounds the structure, is a succession of green lawns dotted with bushes of Mediterranean essences, hedges, scented rose gardens in a thousand colours, tall trees, elegant and comfortable living areas designed for relaxation in the open air and, on one side, the infinity pool set into the most beautiful spot to contemplate the wonderful spectacle of nature and admire the marvellous sunsets. In the external area is also a large car park for about 80 cars and a helipad. The house is located in Collevalenza, a few km from Todi, which, thanks to its central position, allows you to move easily to explore the important assets of the Umbrian and Tuscan territory: typical borghi, with their town walls and picturesque landscapes, and beautiful art towns such as Spoleto, Assisi, Perugia, Orvieto, Montefalco, Rome and Florence. Basic services and shops are about 6 km away.
