L'Orto degli Angeli Bevagna

Situated within the ancient perimeter walls encircling the medieval town of Bevagna, lies the wonderfully romantic historical residence, Orto degli Angeli.

After having supervised the extensive restoration work carried out on Palazzo Andreozzi and Palazzo Alberti, their owner, Francesco Antonini dei Conti Angeli Nieri Mongalli, has successfully transformed his sumptuous family home in a quite unique hotel.

Just 14 rooms and apartments are reserved for guests, all individually appointed with exquisite items of antique furniture and adorned with period paintings, some of which have embellished the rooms since 1788, when Francesco's ancestors first came in to possession of the property.
The delightful 300sqm Arcangelo Custode suite complete with cupola featuring frescoes depicting various musical instruments is just one of the high lights of the property.

A generous buffet of local salami, pecorino cheese, jam tarts, custard-filled brioche, and cornetti greets guests each morning in the family dining room, the walls of which are hung with portraits of the owner's family and his famous ancestors, including a rather stern looking Pope Leone XII.

The hotel's "Redibis" restaurant occupies a quite amazing location, situated in what was once the ambulatory of the town's Roman theatre, now transformed in stylish eatery where to enjoy seasonal dishes prepared using the excellent produce for which Italy's Umbria region is renowned.
