We love this place - sometimes we are able to stay in the pleasant rooms; if we can't stay, we will always find time for a wonderful meal. Once again, we were not disappointed by our lunch: the food and service were excellent. And it is always nice to meet Samuele and his family again. Many thanks - until the... More

You are welcomed with a very small pour of prosecco and an amuse bouche. A nice wine list, widely assorted and well priced. However, in Italy one expects a choice of house wines... More

Dear Sir, we are very sorry you did not appreciate our restaurant. We usually welcome all our guests with a small glass of prosecco and the brioche bread with butter to begin. When all the guests in the same table order the hors d'oeuvres/appetizers (antipasti) we usually present them with a small amuse bouche to wait their dishes. You ordered... More

We had a wonderful vacation in Umbria and l'Antico Forziere played a very big part in it. So thank you to Samuele and the whole team for the perfect reception we got.

I have to admit, I was a little skeptical when arriving at this Country Inn but we ended up having a wonderful stay. The rooms are clean and quite large, very well kept. We specifically enjoyed the pool and the food was divine, it is no wonder they are rated number one. Truthfully, this was one of the best meals... More

Thank you to the Rodella family for a wonderful stay of 4 nights! We wanted a last-minute get-away from the rainy danish summer and found this on the Internet.
