We are surrounded by woodland with beautiful walking paths, here are a sauna in a cave in the forest, a swimming pool, a vegetable garden and olive trees.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Living in the Umbrian countryside is an experience in itself, connecting with the pace of nature and breathe in the cultural traditions of the heart of Italy. We will share all our knowledge about growing and tending plants and animals, and the principles of organic farming, about italian food, and about living and working in an italian "agriturismo".
Jennie has a passion for naturopathy, yoga, arts, creativity. Stefano for food, plants, tools, wood and fishing. We can help you learn and improve italian and introduce you to our beautiful region.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
We want to host couples for a long stay, in terms of months, to built a good relationship and to give our family and our work a continuity and a good rhythm of constructive work and leisure time on both sides.
We need help with gardening, wood cutting, cooking, keep clean the spaces, maintenance tasks, take care of the chicken and rabbits, production of jams and preserves, clean the swimming pool.
If you have any experience in handcrafts, wood works, carpentry, gardening, painting and repairs you are perfect for our place!
We always can need nice pictures and videos of our work and our place. So, if you are creative in this, we will really appreciate it!

We live in the countryside, the next town is 4 Km from us, very small, but there is anything you need. 20 Km from us there is Orvieto, a small city, and vary nice to visiting. We are surrounded by many wood, paths and streets for walkings and for mountain bike tours, many nice town to visit with each his own interesting story. Nearby there is the Bolsena lake for very nice one day stay, where you can also canoing or windsurfing, and the same on the Trasimeno Lake too. In the surrounding there are nice walls for climbing and a very nice fitness club with also an indoor climb wall. There are interesting caves to visit with guides, and not far there are thermal bath, free or in spa. We live in a very nice place! To discover and to love.
During summer time almost every day you can find something to do in the towns nerby, as music, live music, coctails, outside cinema or theatre, dancing, walkings with guide, and mostly food.
We can have times to spend together and you can explore by yourself.
