Hotel Il Cantico della Natura - Loc. Montespere - Magione - Umbria Country When Francesco and Monia Micci first saw the farm and old abandoned farmhouse in 1999, they were struck not only by the beautiful location overlooking a charming part of Lake Trasimeno, but also by the fascination and energy of the place which combined the austereness of stone structures with the plasticity of a pristine natural environment in a harmony of colors, scents, and sounds.
