The Castello Valenzino, classified as a Charming Farm Stay (Agriturismo di Charme), is an evocative accommodation located in the green heart of Umbria, in the municipality of Umbertide, about 30 minutes' drive from Perugia. Nestled in a beautiful isolated valley among lush hills, the Castle dates back to the medieval period (13th century) and was once a noble residence and hunting reserve. The structure, carefully restored respecting the original architecture, combines the charm of history with modern comforts, offering a stay of peace and tranquility, ideal for those seeking a true break from hectic life.
Hospitality is offered in various types of accommodation, mainly independent apartments and rooms, each with private access and private bathroom. The accommodations are furnished in a rustic and elegant style, reminiscent of the Castle's era, with antique furniture and exposed wooden beam ceilings. Many of the apartments feature a fully equipped kitchenette for a self-catering stay. Some Superior rooms offer added luxury with a private hydromassage tub (Jacuzzi) inside the bathroom. In general, the rooms are spacious and highly praised for their excellent cleanliness.
Guests have access to a large garden and a sun terrace with panoramic views of the surrounding Umbrian hills. The large outdoor pool, seasonal and equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas, is the heart of the outdoor relaxation area. It is the ideal place to enjoy the sun and the silence of the countryside. For those seeking a more intense moment of well-being, a sauna is available (upon reservation). Furthermore, the property is located close to the Antognolla golf course (within 3 km) and offers the possibility of enjoying hiking and cycling (rental available).
Castello Valenzino offers a good quality breakfast service, often described as varied and abundant, which in some cases can be served directly in the room. While not a hotel with an internal gourmet restaurant, it features a small bar/cafeteria and an equipped outdoor barbecue area for guests, allowing for outdoor dinners and grills, enjoying the Castle's evening atmosphere. Its nature as an agriturismo and the kitchenette option make it perfect for an independent holiday.
Among the services offered, Castello Valenzino includes free private parking, free Wi-Fi (often limited to common areas due to the isolated location), laundry service, and on-site assistance for organizing excursions. Its position is strategic for exploring Umbria: it is about 30 minutes from Perugia and its airport (approx. 20 km) and allows easy access to art cities like Assisi (50 km) or Gubbio (40 km). The property is also pet-friendly (pets allowed) and is suitable for both couples and families.

His Opinion: La struttura dovrebbe avere a disposizione bevande e cibo. Noi per esempio siamo dovuti uscire in macchina e cercare un posto per comprare il prosecco.
Complessivamente siamo stati bene.
La TV della stanza non funziona bene.

His Opinion: Un posto incantevole per trascorrere un soggiorno da favola. Le suite sono complete di angolo cottura nel caso si volesse cucinare in struttura. L'idromassaggio in camera è il top. La vista offre un passaggio suggestivo. Grazie dell'ospitalità, torneremo sicuramente !
Lo consiglio a tutti.

His Opinion: El lugar es espectacular. Nos recibieron súper bien, fueron muy amables. Nos sentimos muy cómodos, fue una elección muy acertada el hospedarnos en el Castello Valenzino los últimos días de nuestro viaje. Muy bien ubicado ,cerca de muchas ciudades, para nosotros interesantes para recorrer.
Lo único para corregir, hay detalles, como por ejemplo, la cortina de la ventana del baño, que se cae del soporte, el TV, que nos pedía una tarjeta para poder programarlo y no la teníamos, y coincidió que cuando estuvimos no funcionaba internet.
Nada empaña la estadía espectacular que tuvimos. Lo recomendamos 100x100. Es una experiencia que no hay que dejar de tener. Muchas gracias!!!!

His Opinion: Abbiamo passato una notte presso questa struttura, trovando un ambiente molto confortevole e coerente con la descrizione sul sito. Al nostro arrivo siamo stati accolti da una signora (straniera) che ci ha fatto sistemare nell'appartamento prenotato (Assisi) e ci ha fatto compilare un foglio con le preferenze riguardanti la colazione. Il mattino seguente la colazione è arrivata puntuale come un orologio svizzero (ore 8)... E' stata di nostro gradimento. Unica nota negativa se così possiamo definirla, non siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti della cucina,poco attrezzata, e mancante di alcuni utensili necessari, come un set di coltelli, presine e sale ad esempio.
Giudizio complessivo 8 (lo consiglierei per un week end romantico)
