| Palazzone is located on hill in the open Orvieto countryside, surrounded by vineyards on the side of the hill between Rocca Ripesena and the Hermitage. Unfolding before it to the southeast is a view of the tuffaceous spur of Rocca Ripesena and the Paglia river valley, with the great Orvieto massif in the background.
Nature expresses all its dynamic vitality in this wild but gentle spot, displaying its ancient creations that have endured over time like sculptures in a natural museum: the atoll of tuff that dominates the Rocca Ripesena landscape, legacy of ancient tumultuous volcanic activity, forms a link with the tuffaceous tabletop upon which the town of Orvieto rises, embracing woods with enormous oaks and mighty chestnuts and hills furrowed with golden vineyards, an expression of the industriousness of the people who live and work in these areas.
Sitting in the living room of the suite and looking out from the mullioned windows, you will find yourself mesmerized by the profound landscape that sweeps endlessly toward the horizon.
The many art, food and historical itineraries, starting with the “Path through the Woods”, that wind through these lands will surely be able to satisfy your curiosity as audacious travelers.
We have established a strong bond with this land, a bond that has given us responsibilities and makes us feel proud and in love with our work at Palazzone: thus we decided to invite you to participate in this deep feeling that brings us close to the traditions and history of these areas that have chosen, enchanted and captivated us. |
