The structure

Its strategic position, spaces and services, make the farm holidays “I Frati” the best option to host any kind of event. The complex “Il Convento”, formerly a convent from the XV century which belonged to the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor, has been completely restored and tastefully furnished, in a superb combination of old materials and craftsmanship and modern comforts. Restoration was completed in 2004 to enhance the rebuilt part and leave unaltered the old stone structure.

The main structure is in the middle of a property of 20 hectares, between woods, countryside and hills, easy to reach taking the road from Castiglione del Lago (PG) to Città della Pieve.

The former convent is composed of two buildings, separated from the old cloister by a typical sandstone pit reminiscent of Renaissance period. The first building is used for tourist activities and comprises the apartments, a big fully equipped kitchen suitable to host gastronomic encounters and typical Umbrian and Tuscan cuisine courses, and rooms with different sizes and capacities. The cloister separates the convent from the former church, deconsecrated and left unaltered from the architectonic point of view but now equipped with all modern commodities.
