Tenuta del Colle is a splendid green island in Gubbio in the heart of Umbria.
Immersed in the peace of the countryside just 6 km from the city, the estate is located in the center of a large farm which has now been reclaimed and cultivated according to the principles of organic farming. The expertly restored old farmhouse is a structure that unites ancient environments and new comforts in a happy and balanced combination.
La Tenuta is now an oasis of peace near the Franciscan Path. The days are cool and quiet, and in the shade of the trees the quiet is interrupted only by the natural sounds of the bucolic environment, the farm animals of the Estate, and the native fauna.
The structure, which was part of an important territorial complex, has its own source of water of excellent quality at the time used to turn the wheel of a nearby mill. To this day, the fountains from which the water gushes out are still present, which also feeds a tank with goldfish, a small and romantic pond covered with weeping willows and irrigates the precious organic garden.
It is wonderful to walk around the area where at dawn it is easy to spot roe deer grazing in the fields. It is an ideal base for tasting the typical flavors of local gastronomy at km 0, participating in local activities, or simply being lulled by the sweet Umbrian landscapes.
