Villa Il Convento is a former Capuchin convent nestled in the breathtaking magnificence of the Italian countryside. Restored, refurbished and re-imagined to honour both its storied history and its shining future, this 60 acre estate is a stunning retreat for all the family.
Perched on a hill overlooking Lake Trasimeno and surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, Il Convento was first established around 1566 by Capuchin monks. Il Convento's original design was quintessentially elegant in its functional, evotional simplicity. Today, Il Convento stands as a magnificent testament to both its restrained religious history and its luxurious future. Celebrating the natural grandeur of the land and retaining a discreet elegance appropiate to its modest roots, this gorgeous villa boasts an impressive array of contemporary amenities and state-of-the-art facilities.
Nestled in the midst of its scenic surroundings, the refurbished 16th Century facility features 13 acres of enclosed gardens, as well as pristing lawns, orchards and olive groves.
