Villa la Cittadella

Tucked into the Umbrian countryside near Città di Castello, this restored 17th-century borgo sits inside 12 hectares of olive groves, vineyards and chestnut woods. It’s about 12 km from Città di Castello, roughly 25–38 km from nearby towns like Umbertide and Citerna, and about a 50-minute drive from the regional airport. An eco-friendly, pet-friendly retreat for those who want rural charm with easy access to hilltop towns.

Exposed stone walls, terracotta floors and wooden ceilings meet light, airy interiors. The borgo was renovated while keeping original architecture; apartments sleep up to 20 guests across multiple double rooms, each decorated with local handicrafts. Kitchens are fully equipped (oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher) and rooms include modern bathrooms and satellite TV.

Dive into the pool with a furnished solarium, stroll the organic vegetable garden or cast a line in the private fishing pond. On-site parking is available and the property generates its own energy via a photovoltaic system and recycles water for irrigation. Guests can taste and buy products made right on the borgo—wake up to olive-scented mornings and fresh garden produce.

Free Wi‑Fi is available across the property. Check-in is performed on site with key delivery—late arrivals should be reported in advance. Guests can park cars within the grounds.

Self-cater in apartments fitted with full kitchens and appliances, or sample garden-to-table produce from the borgo. Expect authentic Umbrian flavors from the estate’s olives, vegetables and homemade goods.
