Castello di Titignano offers guests double rooms featuring period furniture and each one has its own bathroom. The agriturismo facility offers half-board, full board or simply bed and breakfast.
The Castle’s rooms can also host large receptions and banquets with delightfully laid tables: spit roasts, game, homemade pasta – all in the Umbrian and Tuscan tradition, without forgetting the use of the antique, spectacular wood-fired oven. The culinary delights are almost exclusive created from the castle’s own produce. The facility also has a meeting room that holds 120 people. There is a swimming pool situated on a hilltop where guests can relax and enjoy the views over the magnificent, unique Umbrian countryside, immersed in the Mediterranean scrubland on the shores of Lake Corbara.
At Titignano, wine is produced and stored in the cellars and the olives are crushed in the travertine grindstone to produce top quality olive oil. Wine making is a craft that starts in the vineyards and only ends at the moment of tasting. In Titignano, this craft dates back for centuries and is perfect for the type of soil that is particularly suitable for growing grapes to produce wine.
The Corsini princes have owned the castle for centuries and it also has a small church that is perfect for religious ceremonies and weddings.
