The country home: our philosophy
Sant’Illuminato Holiday Farm is located in the upper Valley
of the Tiber, near the border between Umbria and Tuscany, within easy driving
distance of scenic and historic centers like Città di Castello (18 Km);
Arezzo (50 Km); San Sepolcro (32 Km); Cortona (35 Km); Gubbio (42 Km); Perugia
(55 Km); Assisi (68 Km); Todi (90 Km); and Lake Trasimeno (42 Km). Nestled
in the low hills overlooking the Valley, Sant’Illuminato is a fully enclosed
expanse of around 18 hectares. Its rolling fields are interspersed with
cool, sun-dappled woodlands. The entire complex has now been completely
restored to create independent apartments, each tastefully and distinctively
furnished and equipped with all modern comforts. Great care has been taken
to preserve the original architecture, and the wooden beams, terracotta
tiles, and stone fire-places in some of the apartments are close to 300
years old. In keeping with the traditions of old, each room has its own
color and mood.The Farmhouse contains five fully independent apartments
that vary in size, lay-out, sleeping capacity, and kitchen facilities. In
a separate building nearby, there’s also a cozy one-room apartment that’s
perfect for a single couple.
Marco Silenzi
The Sant'Illuminato farmhouse has been my family since 2001 – it is
where I share with my guests the healthy and invigorating experience of
living the country life, plunging into nature, surrounded by the charm of
a location dating back to the end of the 17th Century. I created Sant'Illuminato
as a large house, a space made of open doors, permeated by the warmth of
our hospitality to pass down the spirit of the place, the strength of its
values ??and the intense emotions it arouses. Airplanes are my second great
passion and in 1982 I became a civil aviatioon pilot. I have created a grass
runway for small touring aircrafts inside the property (General Aviation
and Ultralight) which, recently, obtained the classification as an Italian
Minor Airport by the LIAL international code (ICAO Standard).
