Spoleto is considered one of Umbria's most precious jewels. Nestled on a hill overlooking the valley, it is a city that is rich in history, monuments, historic buildings, museums and theatres to visit, with cultural activities and events that take place throughout the year.

Spoleto is also very well-known for its Festival dei Due Mondi, which is a 2 week festival between the months of June and July. It has animated the city for more than 60 years.

Spoleto is one of those towns on a human scale, and it is surrounded by nature that is typical of the Umbria region.

Its location is quite convenient with respect to other famous historical towns in the Umbria region and central Italy. Trevi (21 km) and Spello (35 km) are less than half an hour away, and in less than an hour you can reach Todi (45 km) and Perugia (63 km).

Rome is about 125 km away (one and a half hours by car).

Golf lovers will find two excellent golf clubs less than an hour away:

-Perugia Golf Club(71 km away). A gently undulated 18-hole, par 72,5,735-metre course, the core of which dates back to the late 1950s and with a clubhouse carved out of an old lime kiln from 1921. It still has the imperious towers, guarding the course that is reminiscent of English golf courses.

-Antognolla Golf Club(85 km away). Considered one of the most beautiful and challenging golf courses in Italy, 18 holes, par 71,6,112 metres. The Antognolla course is known for its long, sloping fairways, beautiful water obstacles and wide, wavy greens. In 2020, Antognolla was recognised by the prestigious World Golf Awards as ‘Italy’s Best Golf Course’, and was nominated in 2021 and 2022 as well.

Also quite interesting is that Foligno (only 28 km away) has a Liceo Scientifico 'G.Marconi' with a Cambridge International system that adopts the solid and always current curriculum of the Italian Liceo Scientifico along with an international enhancement: The students study the Cambridge igcse Syllabus. This guarantees that when students receive their Italian scientific diploma, they will also have a 'General Certificate of Secondary Education' (igcse) just like students in the British education system.

The airport is in Perugia, just 56 km and 40 minutes away by car. Rome’s Ciampino and Fiumicino International airports are 142 km and 155 km away, respectively (about one hour and 45 minutes away by car).
