The House

Our House is not a hotel

Locanda Bandini is not a hotel.

If you are the right kind of people to the place (and this is the right place for you) it will become your home: you will be amazed at how few hours are enough because it will happen. And when it does, it will be in large part due to yourselves.

Locanda Bandini is not a hotel.

It was built by adding a room at a time in 250 years. We’re here to keep the walls and the meanings and share them with those who come to visit us: with silence, care and the old time manners.
Locanda Bandini is not a hotel
It is the House where we live all year. Where our children come back with pleasure. Where our friends, old and new, come to enjoy it together.

Locanda Bandini is not a hotel.

We will be your neighbors, quiet and discreet. Always available to give you advice, book a restaurant, drinking a glass of wine together, chatting and a. … provide salt.

It is a house in the countryside, that will offer you things that a hotel not usually offers: space first. And the feeling of freedom. Of course you will have to share it with the numerous, small, inhabitants of the forest and of the earth: are there from before us we arrived and there will remain always.

We met many people, as we for example, who admire the spiders: but nobody likes mosquitoes !
In the majority of the summers are few, carried away by the dry wind of our nights: all beds have mosquito nets, but if you have allergies, your life will be difficult.

At an altitude of 450 m. the house sits on a hill that slopes down to the southern shore of Lake Trasimeno. Between ourselves and the water there is nothing to spoil the view. Beyond the Lake the Tuscany hills that rise toward the mountains. When the air is clear you will see Cortona and the Appennines.
Around the house ten thousand square meters of land and-garden. Two hundred olive plants, a kitchen garden, a grove of elms, a small orchard, and then rose, brooms, aromatic plants, limes, maples, acacias, weeping willows and ………….of coure the high and noble cypresses.
