Between Tuscany and Umbria, midway between Rome and Florence, between Orvieto and Chiusi, in the middle of a green valley of 450 hectares, crossed by the river Chiani, some ancient farmhouses scattered along the country have been turned into charming and comfortable little hotels.
All the restaurations and the new buildings have been carried out by skilful artisans who are experienced in working stone and fired brick, preserving the typicalness of the rural architecture of Umbria.The resort has a wellness centre, restaurants, swimming-pools, multipurpose sports ground, riding school and club house.
The country riding school was born from the love that the owners of La Csella have always had for the horses. Furthermore it is an affiliated centre FISE and thanks to the presence of its federal instructors, you will learn how to horse with single or collective lessons.For the most skilled riders we organize also one hour (or more) walks along the paths of the river. During springtime and in autumn we organize trekkings of more days in order to visit our nearest castles, wine cellars and small medieval villages.
With the Equestrian Resort the farm holiday centre becomes a charming hotel.
Some ancient stone farmhouses have been converted into little hotels. They are fit with stylish furniture and original pictures of artists who lived and worked in the art workshop of La Casella.
Some rooms are furnished with romantic forniture, such as tester beds.
Since every hotel was a stone farmhouse, every room has its particular personality based on an old-fashioned and discreet reception.
The hotel consists of 32 rooms.
