Stimigliano is a quaint 14th century village with a post office and shops of every kind, including pharmacy, bakery and grocery store. Good restaurants can be found within 5-10 km. Pizzeria ristorante less than 1km and in the main square of the village there is a nice Cafe' and a mini-market. This area was the "breadbasket of ancient Rome" and ruins of the Roman markets can be found next to the nearby Abbey of Vescovio. The Sabine Hills are still known for fresh fruits, vegetables, and wonderful olive oil. The charm of this unspoiled area, with its olive groves and vineyards and its proximity to the medieval and renaissance delights of Rome, make it a special place to rest, to visit and to enjoy yourselves. Here, you are within easy day trips to the hill towns of Umbria (Orvieto, Assisi, Cortona, Todi).
