Organic Agriturismo in Umbria

Casale San Cristoforo is a small organic agriturismo in Umbria, nestled in the unspoiled countryside near Montone, one of Italy’s most beautiful medieval villages.

This is a place for those looking for something more meaningful than an ordinary holiday: clean country air, open skies, organic living and the freedom to let each day unfold naturally.



An intimate farm stay in Umbria


Our intimate farm stay in Umbria accommodates up to four guests. The boutique accommodation combines the comfort of thoughtful design with the beauty of its rural surroundings, bringing together iconic contemporary pieces, Italian vintage furniture and beautifully reclaimed materials.


There is nothing generic, every detail has been carefully chosen to create a warm, soulful home where design, nature and authentic Umbrian living come together.



Organic living, rooted in the land


Sleep deeply in 100% organic and natural bedding, and begin the day with a homemade organic breakfast, prepared with seasonal ingredients grown and sourced on and around the farm.

Then simply follow the rhythm of the countryside.



Sustainable by nature


Our commitment to the land goes beyond organic farming. The agriturismo and main house are powered by solar energy and heat pumps, making Casale San Cristoforo fully independent from the electricity grid. Sustainability here is not a concept — it is simply part of how we live.



Slow travel in Umbria


Wander through the olive grove, watch the chickens roam freely, look for wildlife, explore the Umbrian hills or find a quiet place to sit and do absolutely nothing.

No itinerary. No agenda. Just presence.


This is slow travel in Umbria — a chance to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with nature, food, silence and yourself. Whether you are looking for a nature retreat in Umbria, a wellness escape in central Italy, or simply a beautiful and peaceful organic farm stay in Italy, Casale San Cristoforo offers space to slow down.

Here, luxury is not excess.

It is time, stillness, beauty and the freedom to breathe.

And when the sun sets over the rolling Umbrian hills, look up.

Out here, the stars actually shine.

Slow living. Organic at heart. Umbrian in soul.

From City Life to Organic Farming in Umbria


Our Story


Casale San Cristoforo was born from a desire to slow down, leave behind the noise of city life and return to something more real.


In early 2024, our young family took over this beautiful 14-hectare farm in Umbria, with a vision to nurture the land, restore what was here and create something sustainable for generations to come.


Our land is officially in conversion to certified organic farming, and this commitment guides everything we do. We care for around 400 olive trees, producing our own 100% Umbrian extra virgin olive oil, alongside a seasonal vegetable garden and 30 fruit trees that provide fresh produce and homemade jams.


We farm with purpose, using permaculture and regenerative agriculture practices to improve soil health, encourage biodiversity and work in harmony with nature. Wild plants and native herbs grow freely, while our chickens naturally help care for the land and olive grove.

This is more than an organic farm. It is a living ecosystem, and when you stay at Casale San Cristoforo, you become part of it.


Come and experience organic living, nature and slow travel in the heart of Umbria.

From our countryside retreat near Montone, you can explore medieval villages, hilltop towns, historic cities and some of Italy's finest food and wine. Perugia and Arezzo are around 45 minutes away, while Florence and Rome are within easy reach for a longer day trip.
