VILLA DI TISSANO

The charming 3 stars Hotel Villa di Tissano in Santa Maria la Longa, located just a few minutes by car from Udine, dates back to the sixteenth century. This ancient and noble Friulian residence has been renewed and enriched several times throughout the centuries with new rooms halls, furnishings, and gardens, making the Villa the natural and relaxing oasis that it is today. Without modifying the original structure and its unique 16th century characteristics, a part of the Villa has became a hotel with a restaurant. In this informal and pleasant atmosphere, guests relax, immersed in the noble country life of another era. Obtained from the original buildings such as the ancient tower, the greenhouse, the granaries and the noble apartments, each of the 22 rooms in the hotel is unique, faithful to its rustic origins but with every modern convenience and comfort. Perhaps the most beautiful "room' of the Villa, it is its lovely garden. Perfect for a morning or evening stroll, it also provides the ideal setting for an outdoor meal or a party.. The old master kitchen, the typical Osteria, once the attendant's kitchen, as well as the baroque dining room offer settings for a romantic dinner for two as well as for official occasions such as conferences and banquets. The young chef creates special seasonal menus, prepared according to local traditions. These simple but delicious Friulan meals are best appreciated when they are accompanied by the excellent local Friulan wines.
