The building has been the summer residence of Todi’s bishops, in particular Ludovico

the Relais there is the small church dedicated to San Girolamo. After two years of precise
and respectful renovation, put into the hands of expert artisans from the area, the
current owners transformed it into an exclusive luxury country house that combine the
original spirit of it with the most actual comforts.
