Massa Martana holiday apartment. The top two floors of a 12th Century castle tower. Panoramic views.

The importance of food: Villa San Faustino boasts its own mineral water and olive oil. Other local delicacies include truffles and wild boar. The wine is good, both white and red. Many of the surrounding restaurants are “agriturismi” – farmhouses where much of the food served is grown on site. We have a large organic vegetable garden, part of which is given over to growing old varieties in danger of extinction. Guests can usually obtain fresh produce from us.

The atmosphere: Tourists are a rarity and are treated with warmth. The sixty or so local inhabitants are proud of their well-preserved hamlet and pleased when others appreciate it. The pace of life is slow and sense of community strong. There is plenty to see just wandering around on foot , from beautiful countryside to ancient churches. Relax, sample another way of life and forget about the world of stress beyond.

Central for touring too: Most of Umbria’s places to visit are less than forty minutes away by car. Perugia, Spoleto, Orvieto and Todi to name but a few. Dance, music and food festivals are regular events, and range from the world famous to small village affairs. Three lakes are within easy driving distance. Rome is near enough for a day trip, and if you don’t want to travel everywhere by car, Massa Martana station is a ten minute walk.
