The property currently includes 9 guest apartments (totaling 10 bedrooms), a 10,000-sqm park with decorative trees and a 13.5 × 7.5 m swimming pool with solarium. The buildings have been re- cently restored and updated. Services are all available in the nearby town (19km; 20’) and several other centers of Umbria and Tuscany can be reached in less than two hours (Gubbio, Perugia, Assisi, Città di Castello, Passignano sul Trasimeno, Todi, Montefalco, Cortona, Siena, Florence…). The closest airport is in Perugia (28km; 30’) but the terminals in Florence, Rome, Bologna and Pi- sa are equally convenient. The main farmhouse (400 sqm – 4,304 sqft, 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms) is laid over two floors and includes a total of six apartments, each made up of living area with cooking corner, double bedroom and bathroom. The guesthouse N°1 (115 sqm – 1,237 sqft, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) hosts two independ- ent apartments, both on the ground floor and made up of living area with kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. These units were created taking into account the needs of disabled guests. The guesthouse N°2 (130 sqm – 1,399 sqft, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) is laid over two floors: - Ground floor: living room, kitchen and bathroom; - First floor: two bedrooms and a bathroom. Right next to the pool there is finally a dressing room/warehouse (20 sqm – 215 sqft). The buildings are surrounded by roughly 10,000 sqm of park, dotted by olive trees, fruit trees, roses and other decorative plants. Not far from the farmhouse there is the 13.5 × 7.5 m swim- ming pool, surrounded by a stone-paved solarium with sun beds and umbrellas. From the park, one can enjoy a suggestive view over the Umbrian countryside and the Apennines. The estate, beyond the park, covers a total of roughly 6.6 hectares registered as arable land. The property is currently working as an Agriturismo, thanks to its quiet and retired position. Being close to the most beautiful cities and Umbria is definitely a bonus, as well as the presence of an ample park and a pool for the guests. The guesthouse N°2 could easily be used by the owners as their private residence, since it is to- tally independent and already features all the necessary rooms. © Agenzia Romolini Immobiliare s.r.l.

  • JOHN FELICE ROME CENTER Fall Orientation Schedule 2011
    JOHN FELICE ROME CENTER Fall Orientation Schedule 2011 General Background Information: Each year, and each semester, we begin a new and exciting series of events and trips with a new group of students coming from all over the US. Much of those first days together involves providing you with necessary information, settling into your accommodations, introducing you to one another, the staff, the city and to Italy. From arrival day August 31st to September 11th, there are activities and group meetings scheduled, most of which are required or highly suggested. Don’t worry: there will be plenty of time to explore the city and travel in Italy and Europe. Your first two weeks, however , will be occupied with official orientation. We will be ready to welcome you on Wednesday, August 31st starting at 10:00AM. If you plan on arriving in Rome before August 31, you will want to consider some of the lower cost hotels listed in the accommodation section of the John Felice Rome Center (JFRC) webpage. Let us know you’ve arrived so we can anticipate your coming to JFRC when doors are ready to open. You will probably want to have about €200 cash in hand for a variety of activities. It may be easiest to exchange dollars with your bank in the US or at the Airport when you arrive. Because of all the Orientation week activities, you may find you are strapped for cash, and bank machines for Euro currency are not always nearby. During these first days, there will be two optional Orientation meals which are partially subsidized by the JFRC, offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis compares Umbria before and after the Roman conquest in order to assess the impact of the imposition of Roman control over this area of central Italy. There are four sections specifically on Umbria and two more general chapters of introduction and conclusion. The introductory chapter examines the most important issues for the history of the Italian regions in this period and the extent to which they are relevant to Umbria, given the type of evidence that survives. The chapter focuses on the concept of state formation, and the information about it provided by evidence for urbanisation, coinage, and the creation of treaties. The second chapter looks at the archaeological and other available evidence for the history of Umbria before the Roman conquest, and maps the beginnings of the formation of the state through the growth in social complexity, urbanisation and the emergence of cult places.

  • Gubbio's Finest Castle - Rich in Traditions and History
    GUBBIO'S FINEST CASTLE - RICH IN TRADITIONS AND HISTORY Gubbio THE SPACE Accommodates: 35 Bathrooms: 15 Bedrooms: 6 Beds: 6 Property type: Castle Room type: Entire Castle The Castle is in a unique location which will allow its guests to enjoy a stay in the very same rooms were relevant historical characters once lived. The imposing castle stands on a hill that overlooks the valley up to Mount Cucco on a wide bend of the river Chiascio, in the municipality of Gubbio. Immersed in an untouched landscape, rich with woods, meadows and streams of water, it establishes its history in the Middle Ages when it was the fortress of the defense of the Municipality of Gubbio against that of Perugia. It has never been conquered even by the Dukes of Montefeltro who unfortuntely succeeded to tear down its mill which was then rebuilt and is still existing. Only in 1431 the castle passed to the Urbino family. Here Federico da Montefeltro established his favorite hunting lodge. It is said that the Duke himself usually enjoyed his days in the hunt of fallow deers and wild boars that still populate the estate. From 1830 the property passed to the family that still owns the residence and has direct descent from Napoleon Bonaparte. In this enchantment of nature, in this place so rich in traditions and history, guests can spend pleasant days of relaxation and fun. Not far from fascinating cities of art such as Gubbio, Gualdo Tadino, Nocera Umbra, Perugia and Assisi as well as the park of Monte Cucco with its summer sports (trekking and paragliding) and winter (cross-country skiing).

Spend a week with Dr. Alfonso Procaccini, Smith professor of Italian Language Literature, soaking up the unique dolce vita of the Italian countryside while meandering through gorgeous old towns and graceful landscapes straight out of a Renaissance painting. Discover the secrets of famous Umbrian cities like Perugia, Orvieto, and Assisi, while paying special attention to enchanting out- of-the-way villages like Montefalco, Spello, and Città della Pieve. Visit artist studios and artisans in their workshops, including the remarkable village-turned-atelier of Italy’s most renowned cashmere producer. Two charming private family homes are specially opened for us, including a remote farmhouse with stunning panoramic views, with our hostesses personally preparing delicious meals using local produce. Fine food and wine (including a rustic lunch at Umbria’s best organic winery) are a constant staple of the program, and comfortable four-star lodgings at the lovely Hotel San Luca complete this masterpiece of a program. STUDY LEADER A native of Italy, Alfonso Procaccini earned his Ph.D. in Italian Literature in 1975 at The Johns Hopkins University, including two years of study at the University of Florence, Italy.
