This tranquil bolthole makes a great base in Norcia's walled centre. Run by the same folk as the Palazzo Seneca, it has six light-filled rooms whose clean white walls and Scandi-inspired blond-wood decor feels both modern and rustic at the same time. Breakfast is served in the Granaro del Monte restaurant at the entrance to town.
