Relais Abbazia San Pietro In Valle, residenza storica in Ferentillo.
Built in the 11th century as a Benedictine monastery, Relais Abbazia San Pietro in Valle has been thoughtfully restored into a luxury hotel while preserving its medieval architecture and spiritual essence.
Perched above the Nera River gorge in Umbria, this former abbey retains its original stone cloisters, frescoed chapels, and centuries-old timber beams.
The property operates as a five-star residence offering couples an authentic Italian backdrop steeped in over 900 years of monastic history.
The most beautiful and magical wedding venue in Europe! Our daughter and new son-in-law celebrated their wedding at this magnificent venue in August. The setting, the grounds, the views, the food, the service, the entertainment, the staff were amazing and wonderful. This amazing venue offers fantastic value for money. The peace, solace and beauty is breathtaking. Spend a night, a week, but go.
