A modern villa in the Umbrian countryside, paired with private chef dinners, cooking classes, truffle hunting and authentic local experiences.
More than a villa stay
Casa Winther is a modern countryside villa near Castel Ritaldi in Umbria, surrounded by hills, olive groves and wide panoramic views. The house offers space, privacy and a relaxed atmosphere for families and groups who want to enjoy Umbria at their own rhythm.
But what makes a stay here even more memorable are the local experiences arranged around the house — private dinners, hands-on cooking classes, truffle hunting, horse riding, Vespa picnics and rafting.
The heart of Casa Winther
Thomas and Tiziana bring the flavours of Umbria directly to Casa Winther. Whether guests prefer a relaxed private dinner, a barbecue evening, handmade pasta, pizza night in our wood-fired oven, local specialities or a cooking class with friends and family, they create a warm, personal and authentic culinary experience.

Experiences
A curated selection of culinary, outdoor and cultural experiences arranged through trusted local partners.
Enjoy a relaxed evening at the villa while Thomas or Tiziana prepare dinner for you. Menus may include meat, fish, pasta, risotto, lasagne, barbecue, vegetables, truffles, desserts and local wines. The atmosphere is informal, generous and centred around good food and good company.
Cook together with Thomas or Tiziana and learn how to prepare dishes from the Umbrian and Italian tradition. The class can include handmade pasta, local specialities, sweets or cakes. A wonderful activity for families, friends and groups who want to take a little piece of Umbria home with them.
Umbria is one of Italy's important truffle regions, especially for black truffles. Guests can join a guided truffle hunt with trained dogs, followed by a typical lunch with a truffle dish, wine and water.
Close to Trevi, Simone runs a small ranch surrounded by beautiful Umbrian countryside. Beginners can enjoy a riding arena, while experienced riders can explore routes in the local hills and mountains.
A Vespa, a picnic basket and a beautiful destination in the Umbrian hills. This experience is ideal for guests who want to discover the countryside in a relaxed and romantic way.
For more active guests, rafting on the Nera River offers a fun outdoor experience in one of Umbria's wildest river landscapes.

The culinary experiences are the signature element of Casa Winther. Private dinners under the pergola, fresh pasta in the kitchen, local wines, truffles and the flavours of traditional Umbrian cooking.
