Casa rural FonteAntica Agriturismo (Norcia, Italy)

About FonteAntica Agriturismo

In 2008 FonteAntica opened its doors in Norcia. The 18th century house has been fully renovated, carefully preserving the original features of the house as far as possible. This care has also been taken with each of the 10 en-suite rooms (2 of which are fully accessible for the disabled). The rooms have been restored using the best materials and are furnished with original 18th and 19th century pieces, guaranteeing both your utmost comfort and the most authentic atmosphere possible. The cooking is 100% Umbrian, made using genuine home produce along with other carefully selected local produce. FonteAntica serves a fixed menu and the dining area is reserved exclusively for house guests. A hearty buffet breakfast of homemade dishes awaits you in the morning to get your day off to a good start. In the large park outside you will be immersed in the lush Umbrian vegetation, where the only noises you’ll hear are the twitter of birds and the sound of water coming up from the spring. Guests are offered a wide range of services and activities. Indoors there is a reading room with a fireplace, a billiard table, table top football, darts and board games, while outdoors there are mountain bikes, a ping pong table, a children’s play area, archery and an area to play the Italian equivalent of boules: Bocce. Courses can be organised for those interested in cookery, as well as Norcineria (the preparation of local cured meets and cheeses) and how to find truffles. Hill walking trips, walking trips with mules, pony trekking, mountain biking, tasting events, evenings and weekends with a theme, murder mystery dinners, hen and stag parties and small receptions as well as team building and motivational activities such as (rafting, obstacle courses, archery, Nordic Walking and walking with snowshoes) can also be arranged. It’s the ideal place for groups of friends, families with children and couples in search of some quality time together.
