Umbrian Artists' Retreat was founded by three people wanting to share their love of the Umbrian people, countryside, hill towns and the amazing cuisine. Artist-in-residence Ellen Parker Bibb, Umbrian native Gian Cappelli and archaeology enthusiast Jason Guthrie want to share this amazing experience with you. 

While some people think that if you have seen one Italian hill town, you have seen them all, nothing could be further from the truth. We will take you to towns with unique histories, key points of interest, amazing dining opportunities as well as cityscapes and sweeping views of the countryside.

Umbria is an Italian region bordering Tuscany, Lazio and Le Marche, often referred to as Italy's green heart. It is famous for its medieval hill towns, dense forests and local cuisine, particularly foraged truffles and wines. The colors of the fields, the flowers, the hill sides and the amazing people will capture you and make you want to come back again.
