we love...

There’s something quietly magical about Vocabolo Moscatelli – a place that feels less like a venue and more like home. The private chapel sets the tone, transforming from ceremony space to candlelit dining room to late-night dance floor without missing a beat. The atmosphere is laid-back but design-driven, surrounded by nothing but nature and that golden Umbrian light. For a little indulgence, the Private Spa Suite steals the show – complete with a wood-fired jacuzzi and glasshouse lounge made for post-party unwinding. And the team? Small, passionate, and effortlessly warm, the kind of people who make every detail feel personal.

What's so special about Vocabolo Moscatelli?

Vocabolo Moscatelli | An 800-Year-Old Monastery Reimagined for Modern Romantics

Hidden in a secluded valley surrounded by ancient forest, Vocabolo Moscatelli is an 800-year-old monastery turned design-led boutique retreat, where Italian history meets contemporary style in the most soulful way. Tucked between Umbria and Tuscany, this restored estate captures the quiet beauty of rural Italy, reimagined for modern love stories and creative celebrations.

The property’s 12 rooms and suites, including a bridal suite and private spa suite each tell their own story. No two are alike; every space has its own colour palette, mood, and charm. Some open onto private terraces with outdoor bathtubs or secluded gardens, perfect for morning coffee or midnight stars. Across the Main Villa and Garden Annex, Italian craftsmanship takes centre stage – elegant, tactile, and timeless.

Dining is all about flavour and atmosphere. The in-house restaurant celebrates local ingredients and Umbrian wine, while Bar Matite, with its terracotta-and-brass glow, serves crafted cocktails and conversation until late. For celebrations of up to 50 guests, the event garden is pure magic – framed by lush greenery and lit by the soft glow of candles beneath a 30-metre iron pergola. From long “tavolata” dinners to golden-hour ceremonies, everything feels effortless and cinematic.

Beyond the celebrations, Vocabolo Moscatelli invites couples to slow down and savour the good life, from Negroni School and watercolour classes to lazy afternoons by the travertine pool or pizza-making under the stars. With exclusive use, total privacy, and the warmth of a passionate, design-savvy team, this is a place made for connection, creativity, and unforgettable destination weddings.

Nearest Airports: Vocabolo Moscatelli is located in an easily accessible location for your wedding guests travelling in from abroad – just 38 min (47.9 km) from San Francesco d’Assisi Airport (PEG).

What Couples Say

“We stayed at this beautiful little boutique hotel in the Umbrian countryside in June, and it truly exceeded every expectation. We chose it as the setting for our elopement, and it could not have been more magical. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel completely at home ,warm, attentive, and always going above and beyond. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and every detail felt personal and heartfelt. The setting itself is breathtaking: golden light, and that timeless Umbrian charm. It offered the perfect mix of intimacy and romance, with a real sense of peace and authenticity. The atmosphere was more like staying with dear friends than at a hotel — relaxed, welcoming, and filled with little touches that made our time there unforgettable. If you’re looking for somewhere truly special , whether to celebrate love or simply to soak up the beauty of Italy — this gem is everything you could wish for. We will treasure our memories here and hope to return really soon! ps best truffle pasta and tiramisu in the whole of Italy and trust me we tried a fair few on our travels.”
