B&B Porta Perugina

Housed in a 16C farmhouse with and outdoor swimming pool, the Camiano Piccolo agriturismo stands on a hill overlooking the Umbrian countryside, 10 minutes’ drive from Montefalco. Here, chef Giuseppe Fabrizi brings the best of the region’s ingredients to the table, from vegetables grown in the restaurant’s own kitchen garden to local wines and olive oils, delicious meat and black truffles in season.

This quiet and elegant restaurant in a small street in the village of Cannara has a stylish yet friendly ambience and serves traditional, local cuisine where onion is a star ingredient in many of the dishes – don’t miss the delicious onion soup with gruyère cheese. If you’re choosing a wine to accompany your meal, we suggest asking enthusiastic owner Ernesto for his astute recommendations.

Situated in a charming medieval village which is also home to a couple of small hotels, this attractive, rustic restaurant in an old olive mill acts as the backdrop for regional and Italian cuisine. Dishes with a touch of modern flavour are presented on a menu which, although not extensive, offers good value for money.

Situated in the old medieval village of Gualdo Cattaneo, amid the gentle valleys not far from Foligno, Il Grottino is the perfect choice for anyone keen to sample the authentic flavours of Umbrian cuisine. Here, truffles and zero-km produce take pride of place on the menu, with a particular focus on meat which is carefully cooked on the open-view barbecue grill. Alongside locally sourced produce, you’ll also find a choice of carefully selected Prussian beef. Comfortable and welcoming guestrooms complete the picture.
