Amid the gentle Umbrian hills surrounding Gubbio, the old stone manor house stands as a steadfast witness to a rural past.
Today, the Cantina Semonte Wine Resort embodies the revival of a small rural village, brought back to life with care and respect in a process of transformation that does not erase but enhances. This is not about loss, but rather a true upcycling of the spirit of the place: careful preservation of what is valuable, expressed through a contemporary language that restores elegance and warmth.
Upon entering, one feels as though crossing into a home that holds stories, rather than merely stepping into a hotel. The exposed stone walls speak of tradition, the wooden beams evoke deep roots, while the modern, understated design imparts lightness and sophistication. Every space lives in constant dialogue between past and present, authenticity and style.
The rooms serve as intimate and comfortable retreats, available in various types to meet every need. The Classic Rooms welcome guests with romantic warmth and spacious queen-size beds where one can truly relax, enveloped by linens as fresh as silk. The Superior Rooms offer expanded space and feature modern bathrooms with generous showers that transform daily routines into moments of well-being. The Junior Suites complete the experience with an elegant stay, ideal for those who wish to fully immerse themselves in the establishment while maintaining their privacy. In all room, carefully curated details, natural fabrics, and minimalist yet refined furnishings are complemented by modern comforts: Wi-Fi, air conditioning, minibar, and a tea and coffee corner.
Each element seamlessly integrates into the poetic narrative of the property without disrupting it. To ensure a truly comprehensive hospitality experience, the establishment is pet-friendly; even four-legged friends are warmly welcomed and cared for with the same attention as guests. Outside, the landscape blends harmoniously with water: the infinity pool appears to dive among the rows of vines, creating a play of reflections that unites sky and vineyard in a single breath. It is a suspended place, perfect for a leisurely afternoon with a glass in hand and the quiet of the countryside surrounding you. Indoors, the relaxation lounge with large windows and designer sofas invites guests to unwind: a bright living room filled with light and conversation where time takes on the natural rhythm of the seasons.
Here, luxury is not ostentation but hospitality. It is elegance born from details, natural materials, and small gestures that make guests feel special. From free parking to all room amenities and up to the promise of an upcoming spa opening, everything is designed to offer comprehensive pampering. It is the ideal retreat for a romantic getaway, a stay of complete relaxation, and for those who wish to experience Umbria with authenticity and elegance. Ultimately, what remains is not merely the memory of a visit, but the sensation of having lived a dream. To sink into a queen-sized bed, awaken to light filtering through large windows, immerse oneself in a pool amid the vineyards, and dine with a glass of the house wine: Cantina Semonte Wine Resort embodies all of this. A rediscovered village, a sanctuary for the soul, a desire transformed into an experience.
