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). The Castle is surrounded by a large park where there are roe deers, fallow deer, pheasants, wild boars and all kinds of animals typical of the area, and is part of a hunting wildlife syndicate.
