Lodging
Stay in the Comforts of Your Celluzze
Eremito remains a faithful custodian of the essence and ambience found in ancient hermitages, where the hands of time seem to stand still. The Celluzze echoes the simplicity and modesty of the cells once inhabited by contemplative hermits, providing a space for meditation and prayer. In these rooms, adorned with a wrought-iron bed, a modest shower and a toilet, Eremito preserves the serene atmosphere of the past.
A consistent ambient temperature eliminates the need for air-conditioning, complemented by underfloor heating during colder months. Meticulous attention to detail is evident in the handcrafted hemp yarn bedding, enhancing the tactile comfort of each room.
Eremito intentionally omits modern conveniences such as phones, televisions and Wi-Fi, allowing you to detach from the digital realm. Instead, a purposeful focus on simplicity encourages contemplation, with a stone-crafted desk by the window offering a tranquil space for inspiration while overlooking the lush green valley.
Dining
Enjoy Authentic Food in the Refectory
At Eremito, things are kept straightforward, reflecting simplicity, luxury and style in every aspect, including meals. The menu is simple and down-to-earth, drawing from the monastic Mediterranean tradition. The dishes bring out the tastes and scents of Umbrian traditions and nearby villages connected to monasteries. Everything you’re served from their kitchen is genuinely made with high-quality ingredients.
Here, the cuisine is vegetarian, featuring a fixed menu with plenty of fresh, seasonal veggies and fruits. You'll find homemade bread and pasta, along with jams and cakes made on-site. If you've got specific dietary needs or intolerances, just let them know when booking, and they'll happily accommodate your preferences.
In the colder months, meals are served in the Refectory, warmed by a large stone fireplace. When the weather is warmer, enjoy your meals outdoors amidst the trees, taking in the scenic views of the woods. So, if you're a mindful luxury traveller, Eremito offers you a simple and wholesome dining experience, reflecting the beauty of the surrounding landscape and the local traditions.
Sustainability Story
In the vibrant era of the eighties, Marcello Murzilli forged the path of El Charro, a distinctive clothing brand that bore the mark of his creative spirit. Venturing beyond the realms of fashion, he went on a remarkable journey, sailing the world aboard a meticulously restored 1937 Scottish cutter.
Settling on the serene Pacific coast of Mexico, Murzilli crafted and presided over the enchanting Hotelito Desconocido for an impressive span of 14 years. Recognised as one of the world's premier eco-resorts, the hotel bore testament to his commitment to sustainable luxury.
Returning to his roots in Italy, 2013 marked the inception of Eremito, a groundbreaking concept in luxury tourism tailored for solo travellers. Nestled in proximity to hermitages dating back to the fourteenth century, this sanctuary has reclaimed its authentic charm.
Here, amidst the echoes of history, you’ll discover a haven for self-regeneration — a place where the essence of life's priorities, perhaps obscured in the bustle of daily existence, can be rediscovered.
