Agriturismo Sant’Angelo: an organic farm located between Lazio, Tuscany, and Umbria

You wake up to a view of gently rolling hills, the scent of pine and olive trees in the air, and a rooster crowing somewhere in the distance. You step outside with a cup of espresso in your hand, gaze out over vineyards and a large, bright-blue swimming pool, and realize: this is exactly why you wanted to come to Italy.

Welcome to Agriturismo Sant’Angelo in Acquapendente, an organic agriturismo on the border of Lazio and Tuscany and Umbria. A peaceful, small-scale retreat where you can choose what to do each day: explore nature, discover charming towns, or simply relax by the pool with a book.

Why Agriturismo Sant’Angelo Is So Special

• 60-hectare organic family farm
• Strategically located between Lazio, Tuscany, and Umbria
• View of gardens, pine forests, olive groves, and vineyards
• Authentic farm life with animals: cats, donkeys, chickens, rabbits, and a dog
• Ideal base for exploring Lake Bolsena, Civita di Bagnoregio, Orvieto, Monte Amiata and much more

The farm is located in the green heart of Tuscia (north of Lazio), in a stone house with tuff details, surrounded by gardens and a pine forest. It feels secluded and peaceful, yet you’re also just a short drive away from famous Tuscan and Umbrian towns.

Things to Do in the Area

Hiking, biking, and horseback riding

In the Monte Rufeno Nature Reserve, you can go on beautiful hikes, mountain bike, ride a bike, and take horseback riding lessons or go on trail rides. We also highly recommend the Bosco Incantato del Sasseto: an enchanting forest with unique trees and moss-covered rocks.

Wellness: Fonteverde Spa

Would you like to spend a relaxing day? We can book a visit to Fonteverde Spa in San Casciano dei Bagni for you. Thermal baths and wellness treatments with a view of the Tuscan hills.

On the water: Lake Bolsena

From Sant’Angelo, you can take a boat trip to the islands of Martana and Bisentina on Lake Bolsena. Go swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, or just relax on the shores of the lake.

Wine Tastings

Are you a wine lover? Then you’ve come to the right place. Take part in a wine tasting at Agriturismo Sant’Angelo itself or at one of the many wineries in the area, featuring local wines from Lazio, Tuscany, and Umbria.

Sustainability & History of the Farm

Agriturismo Sant’Angelo is not just another vacation spot; it is a thriving, working organic farm with a clear vision. Wine and extra virgin olive oil are produced on more than 60 hectares of organically farmed land.

The family consciously works in harmony with the seasons, respecting nature and the land. They farm out of love, not out of necessity. And you can tell in everything they do: from the care they give the animals to the products you taste. Countless wild animals live around the farm, such as foxes, hares, goshawks, kestrels, and owls. You’ll also come across pheasants and porcupines. Occasionally, a deer will pass by in the morning.
