UNINTERRUPTED TIME, NATURE, WIFI - AND GENIUS.

A COMMITMENT THAT MAKES YOU ACT

It's a commitment to yourself, to your craft, to your career, and to the life you want to lead.

It's a gift you give yourself; the gift of space and time to fully immerse yourself in your creative pursuit.

NO WORRIES; WE'VE GOT YOU

Pick-up and drop-off

Let us pick you up free of charge from the airport, trainstation, or bus station in Perugia. From Ancona airport, we'll need to charge a small fee.

Grocery Delivery Service

Just let us know what you need, and we'll deliver it straight to your doorstep twice a week.

Weekly Cleaning Service

Of course we will make an appointment with you first, so we don't disturb your creative process.

Pick your own veggies

Depending on the season, feel free to pick anything from tomatoes and green beans to pumpkins and onions from our vegetable garden and greenhouse.

Get a meal delivered

Should you not feel like cooking, we can provide you with the occasional meal.

Support, always there

We're literally just a stone's throw away from Suflora. Whatever you need, we will do our best to make your stay as great as it can be.

MEDIEVAL

MAGIC

Explore the ancient, cobble-stoned streets of Gubbio (just a 15-minute drive away), Assisi, Perugia, Spello, and Spoleto, with countless museums, art galleries, restaurants, cafés and bars.

Umbria is a region that has everything you could ever want from Italy: history, art, nature, food, and wine. And it has  the true "la dolce vita" feeling, with an authenticity that'll surprise you and help gain fresh perspectives for your work.

ACTIVITIES THAT ACTIVATE

Incubation periods allow for your subconscious to step in, connect dots, and provide insights smarter than your everyday strategizing.  

 

Paint the Umbrian hills, plant seeds, hike on trails that start straight from your doorstep, or chop some wood.

 

We provide everything from easel and canvas to pruning shears and watering cans so you can focus just enough on something other than your project.

 

That's how you can invite those Eureka moments.

There's always something to do - and getting your hands dirty usually clears the mind.

Chopping wood

Letting go of pent up energy is a great way to inspire fresh ideas.

What Our Guests Say

LETTERS FROM THINKERS

I've had this project in my head for two years, and never got around to tackling it.

During my week at Suflora, I was able to switch off completely and got it done - it feels amazing!

Matthias Peper, CEO TP SOLUTION

With a full life next to a full job, I never found the space, let alone the time, to work on my novel.

At Suflora, I finally get to write, and I didn't even have to take any vacation days. It's perfect for remote work during the day, and the evenings are all mine... What a pleasure!

Nadine Steiner, soon-to-be published author

A job, a toddler, a husband, and a dog at home. The usual office chaos at work. And nowhere to turn for some peace and quiet.

 

My husband and I organized my trip here like we do any of my business trips.

I got my slide deck for next week thought out and crafted beautifully, and unlike usually, I am actually looking forward to presenting it!
