Col di Fiori
Bed & Breakfast
in Umbria, the green heart of Italy
Col di Fiori, Montelabate
in the center of the cultural triangle Perugia - Assisi - Gubbio
Col di Fiori B&B offers a personalised, environmentally friendly stay to all guests, ensuring comfort and well-being throughout the visit.
Globetrotters and owners of Col di Fiori, Maja and Patrick, have always been fond of the Italian hospitality, cuisine and culture.Which is why they decided to buy an old ruin in the vast scenery of Umbria to convert into a B&B. The house is located between culturally renown cities like Perugia, Assisi and Gubbio.
Formerly a blacksmiths shop, the Bed & Breakfast has been renovated to offer 5 spacious rooms combining traditional Umbrian architectural elements with a modern touch.
All rooms have different interior designs and can be rented either as single rooms or several up to all rooms together for larger groups of up to eleven people.
In order to ensure a relaxed stay for all guests as well as not to disturb the plentiful wildlife (birds, deer, porcupines etc.), we advise to leave pets at home.
Note: Unfortunately, a section of the access road is quite bumpy and not suitable for low-laid cars!
