The Borgo Della Marmotta - Farm Home is an exclusive rural retreat created from a beautifully restored ancient medieval farm complex, situated at the gates of the picturesque Poreta hamlet, just minutes from Spoleto. Immersed in the tranquility of the Umbrian countryside, the Borgo blends the history and monastic spirit of the place with a discreet and contemporary elegance. Hospitality is based on the principle of “feeling at home,” offering an authentic and relaxing experience, enhanced by panoramic views over the Spoleto Valley.
The property features approximately 18-22 accommodations, including Classic Rooms, Superior Rooms, and Apartments/Suites, each individually furnished with high-quality linens and natural materials like ecological lime and paint. Some apartments also offer a small kitchenette. The Borgo is also an organic farm, producing extra virgin olive oil, Umbrian truffles, and legumes, whose products are the stars of the cuisine. Full breakfast is included and praised for its variety of homemade cakes, biscuits, and local cheeses.
The in-house Restaurant celebrates local traditional cuisine, with a strong focus on zero-kilometer ingredients and the possibility of vegetarian and intolerance-friendly menus. The restaurant is open daily for lunch and, on specific evenings, for dinner (check seasonal hours). Guests are invited to participate in engaging wine and oil tastings. The offering is completed by the Honesty Bar, housed in an old cellar furnished as a winter garden, where guests can self-serve 24/7.
The Borgo’s oasis of relaxation is the splendid seasonal outdoor pool, surrounded by a large park and well-maintained gardens, offering a serene and enchanting environment with panoramic views. For wellness, guests have complimentary access to a well-equipped gym and, for an additional fee, can use the sauna and treatment and massage rooms. The location is also ideal for those who enjoy physical activity such as hiking and cycling.
Borgo Della Marmotta offers amenities including free private parking, free Wi-Fi in all areas, an electric vehicle charging station, and a well-equipped meeting room. The property is pet-friendly (dogs allowed upon notification, owners responsible for damages). The location, on the outskirts of Poreta, is strategic for exploring the cultural wonders of Umbria, such as Spoleto, Foligno, Montefalco, and Assisi, all easily accessible.

His Opinion: A Beautiful place and great location. Staff friendly and food good
The shower in our room was broken and despite twice reporting it, nothing was done. Also a flickering bedside light which we could not use - should have been a simple bulb replacement.
Overall a lovely place

His Opinion: Un Borgo medievale che ti coccola con il disegno della sua struttura ed i colori di un giardino florido e accogliente. Personale disponibile e discreto, per un soggiorno intimo e piacevole, accompagnato da servizio impeccabile per un totale relax. Unico difetto: prima o poi si riparte
