Antognolla Luxury Resort and Residences involves the full-scale reconstruction of the medieval estate of Antognolla in the Italian region of Umbria, into a luxury hotel and residential facility managed by a leading international operator. The project will include a luxury hotel with 72 rooms, and more than 70 private residences. The Antognolla estate is approximately 1,400 acres in size, much of the site is located in an area characterized by steep contours, and dense forest making for a breathtaking backdrop for the development. Antognolla is located approximately 20km north of the regional capital of Perugia and within close proximity to the regional border with Tuscany. The dominant feature of the site is the existence of the 12th century Antognolla castle and Old Borgo. Occupying a central location with panoramic views of the estate, the castle is of major historical significance. It has been constructed on the ruins of an old Benedictine monastery and within the basement is a 6th century crypt, containing hand painted frescoes of the last supper. Antognolla also has an 18 hole championship golf course designed by legendary golf course architect Robert Trent Jones jr. The course has recently been subject of a multi-million euro renovation and has been relaunched ready for the 2019 season. The on-site restaurant (La Boiola) is also operational offering exquisite traditional dishes made with the freshest of locally sourced ingredients. The project is a pioneer in the region and has already established an industry prominence internationally. The vision is for Antognolla to set new benchmarks for quality and guest experience in the luxury country retreat sector. Antognolla will be underpinned with core themes of gastronomy, health and wellbeing, cultural experiences, a reconnection with nature and unrivalled levels of personalized service.
