Il Cantico della Natura is an agricultural-forest farm and farm holiday establishment located amid the green hills of Lake Trasimeno in the natural setting of a 42-hectare estate of considerable intensity. The charming landscape surrounding the farmhouse alternates between a centuries-old olive grove with 500 trees, clusters of centuries-old pines, an ancient chestnut wood, a timber wood, cultivated fields, and the young orchard.
The southeast wing goes back to the early 1800s, and the north wing was constructed in the early 1900s; they harmonize perfectly into a single L-shaped building admirably situated so that it receives direct sunlight from dawn to dusk, glittering on the waters of Lake Trasimeno, creating an enchanting place for relaxation. Many old-timers who were born and lived in the casale still remember the hard work and the pleasant evenings spent before the fireplace in the company of an accordion, and even today they enjoy taking part in the running of the farm.
 
 
The view of the lake can be enjoyed from various spots, often in the company of small native hares, pheasants, and many species of small birds which can be easily seen thanks to the nearby nature reserve. The property has no fences whatsoever, and there are numerous trails for trekking and horseback riding, made especially pleasant during certain periods of the year by gathering the abundant natural fruits offered by the farm (apricots and plums in summer; strawberry-tree fruit, hazelnuts and almonds in autumn, persimmons in winter, cherries and wild asparagus in spring). The location is also the ideal starting point for longer treks (on foot, horseback, or mountain bike, organized by us) through the hills surrounding Lake Trasimeno.
Some rooms can be joined and used as suites which express the force of the seasons that unite the months they represent.
The fan shape of the pool follows the natural form of the terrace, with a beautiful view of the lake. The blue of the pool and the blue of the lake become one.
