Borgo dei Conti Resort


Borgo dei Conti is a charming Resort that has combined its centuries of aristocratic history to modern concepts of hospitality and elegance. A real village in the vastness of its 20 hectare park, made up of the Villa and Colonica structures that host our55 roomsdivided into 4 different typologies.

The Restaurant “La Limonaia” obtained from the ancient ballroom and the original dèhors from the 19th Century. It offers national and regional dishes prepared with extreme attention to the passage of the seasons and the freshness of our local products.

A location dedicated to wellnessand body care offers saunas, pools, a comfortable cabin for treatments and a gym. Chilling out in our two outdoor swimming pools with panoramic view over the Umbrian hills, feel free to enjoy a light lunch at our colorful Pool Bar.

Long walks between the Park, the silence of our Italian garden, delighting in the Umbrian countryside, it will be your ideal holiday with the awareness of having found an ancient Borgo with a young heart so far from clichés.

It is an architectural complex, halfway up the Monte Petriolo hill, along the road that leads from Perugia to Città della Pieve. It was born from the transformation of what in the origins was a fortress, which has existed since the twelft century and it actually seems to be controlling the river Nestor valley, as a middle age fort...

At the time of the original configuration of military equipment, was inhabited by about 500 people and in 1390 it was occupied by the Raspanti, a noble and powerful family of Perugia, until 1501 when it passed under the control of Porta Eburnea.
It was also a fief of Baptist Vermiglioli, an important archaeologist and historian of the18th century, and at the end of the ';700 became part of the canton of Lake Trasimeno, having Spoleto as capital. In the second half of the nineteenth century Count Bernardino Rossi, who married Angelica Scotti of Perugia inherited the estate, adding his name to the one of his wife in exchange.
In the dynastic succession, the village came later inherited by Lemmo Rossi Scotti, Count of Monte Petriolo and famous painter of the time, to whom is due the transformation into a noble house.
The complex, in the last century, belonged to Tiberius (Bero) Rossi Scotti, leader of the aristocracy in Perugia, a major landowner in the production of tobacco and authority in the management of fairs and agricultural markets.

The original nucleus, that forms a "U" around a courtyard, at various times was surrounded by multiple buildings that overlapped with the original medieval plant ,so resulting in an inhomogeneous and composite complex that shows an evident fortress configuration (pretty strange for a noble residence of the late 18th century) of neo-Gothic style inspiration (battlements of the buildings and the landscape setting of the park) and at the same time has got structures witnessing the agricultural interests conducted by the Count.

The complex of approximately 20 hectares in size (about 50 acres) is surrounded by more than 600 olive trees and by a large park, planted in the 18th century, that includes also several secular oak trees. This park covers the whole hill side and is watched over by an imposing tower that seems like a castle fort. Among the witnesses of the past you can still discover what remains of the so called imbarcadero (pier) that would lead the Countess little boat to the small lake’ s tiny island where she would have her time of privacy and relaxation. Or again you can guess what was the splendour of the time while dining at the Limonaia restaurant which is the result of the union of the ballroom (previously) and the shed of the lemon trees (afterwards).
