Perfect for slow holidays, longer stays, remote work and exploring the Via Francigena on foot or bike. Bike lockup included
The space
The house is made up of two independent yet connected apartments, ideal for families, friends, or small groups travelling together. Each apartment has its own private entrance, spacious kitchen, and two bedrooms, while the two units are linked by a shared coworking and reading area equipped with video conferencing tools. In total, the property offers four bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom and independent AC , giving guests plenty of privacy as well as comfortable shared spaces for cooking, dining, relaxing, and working remotely. Two balcony/terraces allow al fresco breakfasts and soaking up the views. The coworking area is designed for smart working and longer stays, with free ultra-fast Wi-Fi and views across the valley and surrounding hills. Each house has a fully equipped laundry room with a washer and dryer. The overall feel is warm, practical, and residential: a house designed not just for visiting, but for truly living in for a few days or longer. For cyclists and fans of the Francigena you can store your bike in the privately accessed medieval cellar.

Other things to note
Proceno is the perfect place for travellers looking to slow down, disconnect, and experience one of central Italy’s most authentic hidden corners. Set on the border between Lazio and Tuscany, this small medieval village offers a rare combination of history, nature, silence, and strategic location. From the house, you can walk through quiet stone streets, reach the castle, admire open views across the Paglia valley, and feel immersed in a landscape of rolling hills, woods, rivers, and traditional rural life.
Its position makes it ideal for exploring both Tuscia and southern Tuscany. Proceno is close to Acquapendente, Lake Bolsena, Monte Rufeno Nature Reserve, Pitigliano, Sorano, Sovana, the Val d’Orcia, and the thermal areas of Sorano and Saturnia. It is also a peaceful alternative to the more crowded destinations nearby: a place where you can return after a day of exploring and enjoy real quiet, clean air, slow evenings, and village life.
Proceno is also directly connected to the Via Francigena, making it a natural stop for walkers, pilgrims, cyclists, and anyone interested in slow travel. The surrounding area is especially suited to cycling, gravel routes, e-bikes, and scenic countryside rides, with trails passing through valleys, ancient paths, forests, and panoramic hill roads. For guests travelling by bike, the location is particularly practical: you can explore the territory during the day, safely store your bike on return, and enjoy a relaxed meal or drink in the village.
What makes Proceno special is not only where it is, but how it feels. It is quiet without being isolated, historic without feeling staged, and rural without being disconnected. It offers access to culture, nature, food traditions, walking routes, cycling itineraries, and small-town authenticity. For those looking for a holiday that is slower, more grounded, and closer to the landscape, Proceno is an ideal base.
