This is the land and birthplace of Saint Francis of Assisi, a green and outstanding context where for hundreds of years till now the deepest aspects of life are contemplated. Eremito is an Hermitage nestled on top of a hill overlooking the uncontaminated valley of the river Chiani – a tributary of the Tiber River - surrounded by 3000 acres of natural reserve.

Ecology, Technology, Spirituality: these are the pillars of this Eco Luxury Historic Residence restored to its original splendor: the ideal place for solo travelers and couples, who aspire to spend a spiritual holiday in silence, in a stone building warm in winter and cool in summer, renovated with the modern green building techniques, but that fully reflects the atmosphere of the medieval monastery.

Eremito has been designed for the man of the third millennium, and its urgent need to re-establish a dialogue with himself, enjoying a full digital detox break, spending a few days in the luxury of silence and peace, enjoying the simple things that are the ones that make us feel really good. 18 small rooms - the "celluzze" - with French size bed, hand-sewn hemp sheets, and a special stone sitting by the window with view; a Refectory with fireplace for sharing meals; an ethnic Reading Room with large fireplace.

Gregorian chants are often played as background music. In the evening, the atmosphere becomes magical by the light of hundreds of candles and torches. A Cave and a Chapel are available for those that need an intimate place for meditation or prayer.

Eremito is also a Farmhouse: the ingredients of its veg monastic dishes come from the garden, the orchard, the garden of herbs.
