7.5 miles from Spoleto historic centre, close to Assisi, Perugia, Orvieto, Gubbio, Spello, Trevi, Montefalco etc, Posto Del Sole is in the heart of pilgrim territory. The Valico Dei Pellegrini, just 5 minutes up the lane, is the mid point of the oldest religious trail in Umbria, passing from Assisi to Rieti . The significance of this point was recently honoured by the Bishop of Spoleto, who blessed and marked it with a ceremonial stone. Along this 60 mile trail, you find monasteries, churches and outdoor alters, all used by St Francis in a bygone era. Norcia is 30 miles along a quiet road of outstanding beauty, used by the famous Giro D'Italia bike race. A little further is the famous Casteluccio on the Gran Piano. Everywhere, you find truffles, fine wines and the the best olive oils in the world. The restaurants, the shops and the local people are a joy. You are immersed in the most sensational landscape in the world. Here, you will find Italy at its finest. And, at modest prices !
