Fantastic place to stay with a lovely smile and great property with great views. Plenty of local things to see and towns to visit or just spend an afternoon relaxing in the lodge, overlooking the distant hills and countryside. Michael and Mary will accomodate your needs and be able to recommend local restaurants and places to visit. As our Italian is very limited, helped us greatly that they both speak 100% English as well. Looking forward to our next visit, thanks again for your hospitality.
What a beautiful place! We loved the view, the charming nearby towns, and the hospitality. If you go, be sure to do the tasting experience! There are also artistic/group opportunities that we are considering for future visits.
This was our third stay at Genius Loci. With each visit we became more and more enchanted with the Inn, the spectacular views and our wonderful hosts. Mary and Michael Taconi have introduced us to amazing local sights, vineyards and restaurants. This charming Inn offers lovely accommodations and a delicious breakfast. Although there is so much to see in the area (don’t miss the frescoes in Montefalco!) our favorite pastime was sitting on the back patio taking in the views of the countryside drinking local wine!
This was our second trip to Umbria and our second stay at Genius Loci. It really is a wonderful B&B. The setting is beautiful and Mary is a terrific host. Rooms are large and comfortable with great views. Breakfasts are great. Mary and her son have wonderful recommendations for sites to visit and local restaurants. Mary can arrange tastings of local food products and visits to local vineyards. Bevagna in late Spring has a medieval festival which is terrific fun. And Genius Loci is easy driving distance to some of Umbria's attractions including Assisi, Perugia and Spoleto.
My husband and I stayed at Genius Loci in June 2018. Michael was a most helpful and friendly host. The rooms are beautiful and we had a beautiful view of the vineyard and gentle mountains in the east.We started each morning with a tasty breakfast on the terrace and were tempted to stay by the pool and enjoy the beautiful lavender garden, but the art filled towns and villages beckoned us. The Inn is centrally located to several small villages and towns. We did several day trips to; Assisi, dinner in Montefalco (my favorite) and Bevagna. Michael recommended a ceramic studio in Deruta, where i purchased several lovely pieces of ceramics. I highly recommend Genius Loci Inn, it was a highlight of our trip.
