Orvieto, a city of ancient Etruscan roots, set on a cliff of tuff with sheer walls, surrounded by olive trees and vineyards, is the ideal place for a holiday of peace and beauty in the green Umbrian hills. It also has a happy geographical location that will allow you to quickly enjoy the beauties of the great cities of art such as Rome, Florence, Siena, Perugia and small gems such as Città della Pieve, Chiusi, Montepulciano, Assisi and Bolsena. To mention the food and wine tradition of Orvieto that follows the typical characteristics of Umbrian cuisine with particular attention to recipes based on feathered game (such as pigeon, quail, partridge and turtle doves). Feronia, as well as the other Dimore di Borgo Tessile, is very close to the cathedral of Orvieto (200 mt), an architectural and cultural jewel of our beautiful country. Moving around the historic center requires a slow and steady pace, which will allow you to reach every corner of Orvieto in just a few minutes. The main means of transport are the "pollicini" (minibus), which go around the city, and the funicular that leads from Piazza Cahen (in the historic center, about 10 minutes walk from the apartment) to the railway station in Orvieto Scalo and the other way around. After a nice walk through the streets of the town you can't avoid to stop at one of the Corso's wine bars to sip an excellent local wine accompanied by typical excellences such as cold cuts, cheeses and much more. Upon request you will have access to an adjoining garden to relax and enjoy the myriad of colors given by the vastness of plants, flowers and trees present.
