Tenuta di Corbara — Restaurant in Orvieto

August 2014 we stayed at the Tenuta di Corbara for the first time in our life. We had an appartment booked in the Oglieto house (ground floor) and were there for 2.5 weeks (2 adults and 2 kids aged 7 and 10). The agriturismo as such is really good and offers plenty of things to do for a family (we did some horse riding and guided tours ourselves). The - really big, well kept and clean - apartment we booked was ''in the middle of nowhere'' on a high hill offering unique views over the city of Oriveto and the countryside around it. Fantastic! Since the house has 2 apartments you need a little luck with your neighbours (which we had). It is also important to realize that it is quite a ride to the restaurant (10 minutes or so). We found the restaurant OK, but not outstanding (we went there only once). Food and drinks are far from expensive though. Tenuta di Corbara is a reall good choice if you want to experience ''the real Umbria'' and apreciate the countryside while still being close to some interesting places, like Orivieto, Todi etc..||PS: I can recommend booking a guided tour and / or hike with Filippo! Outstanding English language skils, very friendly and with a lot of knowledge (he is...

Traveling around Italy on a road trip last year, we found this place just off the motorway & so glad we did! We had a room above the restaurant, such character & the view overlooking the surrounding countryside was spectacular! Yes the toilet is oddly noisy when you flush but it was quirky and made me feel like I was back in my grandparents farmhouse. ||||We had a very nice glass of wine and cheese & nibbles on the terrace watching the sunset before dinner. Now I asked the waitress what she recommended, Pork Tenderloin she said and I am so glad I did! I am not a fan of pork but this was the best meal I have eaten! Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about the food (& the wine of course). I wanted to thank the chef and it turns out the chef was the waitress's Mumma! ||||After a good nights sleep, we opened the shutters to the sunrise over the Umbria hills, breakfast had a wide variety & the biscotti was awesome! ||||Before leaving we checked out the gift shop and left with some great olive oil, pesto, wine & grappa. We wanted to stay for a 2nd night but the place was booked out for a wedding. ||||If you ever get a chance to go to Umbria, I would definitely recommend...
