The Sounds of Umbria;
Up here, you’re above it all—but still deeply connected. The rhythms of daily Italian life hum below: the echo of footsteps on cobbled lanes, the laughter from the nearby piazza, and the gentle ringing of the Duomo’s historic bells. You can leave the windows open and fall asleep to the soul of Todi itself.

Why Todi, Why Umbria?
Todi is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets—a mountaintop medieval town surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and rolling golden hills. Unlike crowded hotspots, Todi offers space to breathe, wander, and truly connect. You’ll find artisan shops, open-air concerts, art galleries, and trattorias where the food is handmade and the recipes are generations old. It is a truly "living village" with all the infrastructure needed whether it's a short or long stay- pharmacy, Doctor, dentist, grocery stores and banks etc.

Located in the green heart of Italy, Umbria is for the soulful traveler. It’s slower, deeper, and more intimate than its glossier neighbors. Here, meals stretch into the afternoon, strangers become friends, and the landscape shifts subtly with the seasons—from wildflower-strewn spring meadows to the golden harvests of autumn.

At Nido di Gufi, you’re steps from the main piazza, yet tucked into a peaceful corner of town. No car is needed to explore. Meander the cobbled streets, enjoy gelato while people-watching, or set off for a day of wine tasting, ceramics shopping, or visiting nearby hill towns like Orvieto, Spoleto, and Assisi.

Your Nest Awaits;
Barn Owl isn’t just a place to stay. It’s a portal to a different pace of life—a place where time slows down, beauty takes center stage, and the everyday becomes sacred. Whether you’re here for romance, rest, or creative revival, the penthouse at Nido di Gufi offers an unforgettable Umbrian escape.

Our Favourite Thing Within Walking Distance
Evenings in Piazza del Popolo.
Just a 3-minute stroll from your front door, this stunning medieval square—one of the most beautiful in all of Italy—comes to life at sunset. Locals gather for aperitivo, church bells echo across the rooftops, and golden light spills across 13th-century stone façades.

Grab a table at a wine bar tucked under the old arches, order a glass of Umbrian Sagrantino or a cold spritz, and watch as the sky turns pink behind the Duomo. It’s not just a walk to town—it’s a nightly ritual that feels like a scene from a movie.
