The Agriturism

We welcome you to the "house" located at the foot of the charming medieval village of Eggi, on the slopes of Mount Giove, along the Via Francigena, 2 km from the Flaminia and 5 from Spoleto.

 

Here you can still breathe the atmosphere of a time where peace and silence are the setting for a vegetation rich in olive groves and Mediterranean scrub.

 

The farm was founded in 1989 thanks to meticulous renovation work on ancient agricultural outbuildings (today the red farmhouses), transformed into charming and welcoming apartments, recovering that rural peasant architecture with the aim of making everyone aware and appreciate the roots full of meaning in the history of our country and our region.

 

The apartments are furnished with wood and wrought iron and despite being simple and essential they are designed to be as functional as possible. Equipped with what you need on a farm holiday, where we believe that what matters is contact with the nature that surrounds us, savoring the slow passing of the hours, following the flight of a bird... or simply "not letting nothing"... and maybe why not...forget for once about the "PC", the "cell phone", or the "TV"!

 

The name "Collelignani" was chosen from the beginning of its activity and derives from an ancient cave called the "grotta de Lignai" located on the hill of olive trees adjacent to the manor house, where it is assumed that the wood was stored during the rainy winters, that's why "colle-lignani".
