The former abbey (12 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms) revolves around the original Romanesque church, built in the 13th century by the Benedictine monks over the remains of a Langobardic watchtower, in turn built over a preexisting roman settlement. The ground floor of the buildings, next to the church, includes a welcoming restaurant/breakfast room for the guests, a professional kitchen and two bedrooms with en-suite bathroom. The church has been converted into a charming and welcoming conference/event hall with a nice bar created in the former sacristy.
The first and second floors, reached via multiple staircase both inside and outside, comprise five independent apartments (each made up of a living area with cooking corner, bedroom and bathroom) and three bedrooms with en-suite bathroom.

The country house (6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms), located not far from the abbey, is a two-story building which includes the owner’s house (ample living room with cooking corner, two bedrooms and bathroom), the reception for the guests, a spacious suite on the first floor (sitting area, bedroom and bathroom) and three bedrooms with en-suite bathroom.
