Overview
Nestled in the heart of the Subasio Regional Park, Casale Le Rocche is a serene retreat just a short distance from the town of Assisi. As you arrive at the villa, the beauty of the lush greenery envelops you. This charming stone farmhouse is set within a private estate of over two hundred hectares, inviting you to disconnect from the world.
As you step inside, you are greeted by the warm, rustic charm of Casale Le Rocche. The interiors are furnished in a traditional style, featuring exposed wooden beams, antique terracotta floors, and a romantic fireplace that promises cosy winter evenings. Each of the four apartments has a unique character designed to accommodate different groups. The rooms are simple yet comfortable, with double beds, bathrooms with showers, and small kitchenettes equipped for basic cooking needs. The living rooms are inviting spaces with sofas, large wooden dining tables, and plenty of natural light filtering through the windows.
Outside, the expansive garden wraps around the farmhouse, providing plenty of spots to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. You’ll find picnic tables perfect for al fresco dining, small tables with chairs for a quiet cup of tea, and sun loungers to bask in the sunshine. A wood-fired oven and barbecue grills beckon for a delightful cookout, perhaps with meat from the estate’s farm.
A short walk along a dirt path leads you to the “Fossa del Lupo,” a serene green area featuring a shared infinity pool with breathtaking views over the valleys of Mount Subasio. Here, you can unwind under gazebos and umbrellas, soaking in the tranquil atmosphere. A spacious room with large windows offers panoramic views of the greenery. Often used for events, this area is perfect for gatherings, complete with a large fireplace and a piano. In the summer, enjoy tastings of local products from the estate’s farm, bringing the flavours of the land to your table.
For those seeking adventure, the estate offers over 200 hectares to explore. Wander the trails, go mountain biking, or try water trekking and canyoning. Casale Le Rocche is a place to stay and a sanctuary to connect with nature and yourself.

Just what we were looking for!
We stayed in one of the farmhouses of the property (it is located about 1km from the reception) but easily accessible by car. The farmhouse is surrounded by greenery and nearby there is also a beautiful swimming pool with a beautiful view. Excellent and helpful staff! The location is great as it is close to Assisi and you can also relax in the nature and walk through the woods.
