The twelve rooms have a private bathroom, TV and Wi-Fi, with a mini fridge on request. Stone walls, exposed chestnut beams, Umbrian furniture and wrought-iron beds: each room recalls a theme from the nature of the Umbrian mountains. The farmhouse was recently restored to earthquake-resistant standards.

The restaurant has a dining room with a fireplace, an outdoor terrace and a large parking lot. The kitchen uses lentils, truffle, olive oil and herbs from the farm and products from small local producers, with a seasonal menu and wines from small Umbrian wineries.
