The 7 Best B&Bs in Umbria

Relais Casamassima

Umbria is known as Italy's 'green heart' and amidst all this vegetation visitors will find rolling hills dotted with historic towns. This is a place to come to find a little peace and quiet, as well as being slightly more gentle on the wallet than other popular Italian regions. For those looking for a truly authentic stay, a B&B is often the way to go; foregoing the stuffiness of a hotel and also benefitting from a local host. Our collection of the best B&Bs in Umbria have bags of character. Whether you are looking for a rural hideaway or a townhouse close to all the cultural action, we have hand-picked the best of the bunch!

For an agriturismo

Relais Casamassima

  • Relais Casamassima is the place to come if you're looking for absolute tranquillity in a picturesque rural setting just north of Perugia. The renovated farmhouse offers just five rooms which have been beautifully designed to create the feel of a chic boutique hotel. Boasting a large pool and very warm hosts, this hidden escape is a real find!

For a townhouse

Ripa Medici Rooms

  • Ripa Medici Rooms & Suites is a charming townhouse in the centre of Orvieto. Rustic chic rooms offer fabulous views across the valley and suites come with kitchenettes. Pick this property as an elegant (and great value) base to explore the region from.

For a traditional stay

San Lorenzo Tre

  • San Lorenzo Tre is an elegant family run B&B in Todi's main Piazza. Interiors are charming and traditional with working fireplaces, terracotta tiled floors, and antiques. The charming hosts are a real draw and there's plenty to discover locally.

For a rural hideaway

Casale Valigi

  • Casale Valigi is a tranquil Umbrian farmhouse surrounded by idyllic rolling gardens with an outdoor pool, situated to the west of Terni. Bare, stone tiled interiors are fresh with a timeless, simple elegance. A sophisticated choice for a rural retreat.
  • Torre Palombara is an exclusive hotel nestled in the Umbrian countryside, again not far from Terni. Rooms are traditionally dressed with antique furniture that complement the property's heritage features. With lovely gardens complete with a pool — this is a classic Italian country escape.
  • Locanda del Gallo is a peaceful haven set in 28 hectares of woodland, terraced lawns and gardens to the north of Perugia. The elegant rooms offer traditional Italian style mixed with Balinese doors and carved furniture. A hillside pool, Turkish bath and wrap-around veranda complete the picture.

For families

Misia Country Resort

  • Misia Country Resort is located in the quiet village of Rocca Ripesena. The property offers private rooms and self-contained apartments (with a games room for added family fun). Overlooking the beautiful woodlands outside of Orvieto, this makes a great escape to the country.
