Holiday home for those who like to stop in history and stories

On the top floor of an ancient family home, in the historic center of Assisi, a few steps from the Basilica of San Francesco, Assisi Al4 is a silent and regenerating corner that smells of medicinal herbs in the summer, which I couldn't resist falling in love with . The interior design is the work of Paolo, my husband. While my mother, my daughter and I have dedicated ourselves to furnishing. We have chosen to recover most of the furnishings from my past. The old sideboard, the 70s sofa, the wardrobe, the black and white photos, the lights on the bedside tables and on the walls, the bathroom mirror. Certainly because I liked them but also because each of them has a story. To tell. THE HOUSE The apartment consists of two double beds and a futon, ideal for 5 people.
