In the heart of Umbria, on the plateau overlooking the Tiber Valley between Amelia, Giove, and Penna in Teverina, Piana delle Selve welcomes its guests in an authentic and unspoiled environment. The holm oak forests surround cultivated fields, olive groves, vineyards, and orchards, creating a landscape that transforms with the changing seasons.

The property is centered around three ancient stone farmhouses, two of which are currently being restored, offering a range of accommodations from single and double rooms to small apartments. The activities available encourage a close connection with nature: agritourism cycling, trekking, guided walks to discover mushrooms, asparagus, and medicinal herbs, horseback riding at nearby stables, and tastings of oil and wine at selected local wineries.

For those seeking a wellness-focused stay, holistic, relaxing, and balancing massages can be booked with an experienced therapist. Dining services are available by reservation only, featuring customized menus for vegetarians, vegans, and those with gluten sensitivities, with a maximum of twelve guests at a time. Alternatively, guests can opt for a "Chef at Home" service or prepare their own meals in shared kitchens.

Piana delle Selve is the result of the dedication of the Polelli Piccirilli family, who have been cultivating this land and preserving its traditions for three generations. Today, Claudio, along with his children Ada and Surya, reopens the doors to this peaceful corner, offering a family-friendly welcome and an experience that blends nature, authentic flavors, and life stories.
Rooms and Rates
Breakfast at Piana delle Selve is available by reservation and is offered in four different options designed to cater to various tastes and preferences. You can opt for a simple breakfast featuring homemade pastries and fresh fruit, or choose more substantial and complete options that include yogurt with granola and honey, whole grain bread with avocado and tomato, eggs prepared in various styles, typical cured meats and cheeses from Umbria, and even more indulgent choices like toasted bread with peanut butter, jam, honey, banana, and chocolate desserts. Each menu comes with a selection of hot beverages, and for the more elaborate options, fresh orange juice is also included.
The restaurant at Piana delle Selve operates solely on a reservation basis and provides an intimate setting with a maximum of twelve seats. The menus are custom-designed, featuring options for vegetarians, vegans, and those with gluten intolerance, and they focus on local and seasonal ingredients. Upon request, guests can enjoy a "Chef at Home" experience, where the chef prepares the meals right in the venue's kitchen, leaving it clean and tidy, accommodating groups of up to eleven guests.

Hey, I'm Claudio

Claudio is the host and heart of Piana delle Selve. Born in Rome and having moved here as a child, he inherited a love for this land from his family and has nurtured it with care by planting vineyards, olive groves, and an orchard of ancient Umbrian varieties. After spending some time abroad, where he took the cuisine and flavors of Amerino to India, he returned with his children Ada and Surya to reopen the family business. Today, he warmly welcomes guests, sharing with them the authentic charm of this corner of Umbria.

Area Campagna

The plateau that features Piana delle Selve stretches across the municipalities of Amelia, Giove, and Penna in Teverina, located in one of the most picturesque areas of southern Umbria. From this vantage point, one can gaze over the Tiber valley, surrounded by gentle hills, oak forests, and cultivated fields that shift in color with the seasons.

Amelia, one of Italy's oldest towns, boasts cyclopean walls, stone alleys, and historic buildings that narrate centuries of history. Giove, perched on a scenic ridge, is renowned for its 16th-century castle and stunning views of the valley. Penna in Teverina captivates visitors with its medieval center and expansive views of the Umbrian countryside and Lazio.

This region is perfect for hiking, cycling, or horseback riding, thanks to a dense network of trails that wind through fields, vineyards, and woodlands abundant with mushrooms and wild herbs. Numerous wineries offer tastings of fine wines and oils, while the charming villages host festivals and markets celebrating local produce.

The location, just a short distance from the highway, allows for easy access to destinations like Orvieto, Narni, Todi, and the nearby Lazio region of Sabina, making this plateau a strategic starting point for exploring central Italy, rich in art, nature, and gastronomic traditions.
