Country House Il Vecchio Ippocastano occupies a small noble palazzo on the little square of Avendita, a hamlet of Cascia, in Umbria. The building, with about five hundred years of history, was entirely rebuilt by the Franceschini family, and the new earthquake-resistant timber structure opened in the summer of 2023.

Today it has eight self-contained apartments and 20 beds, and is reserved for adults.

What to see near Country House Il Vecchio Ippocastano

Avendita grew up on a Roman or pre-Roman settlement, and Latin inscriptions have been found around the parish church of San Procolo. The church, damaged by the 2016 earthquake, is awaiting seismic upgrading work approved in November 2025; its late 16th-century organ, one of the two from that period remaining in Umbria, is kept in Spoleto. The village keeps alive the Pasquarelle, with good-luck songs carried from house to house from 2 to 6 January.
