The history of Borgo Siliano
Nestled in the rolling hills of Umbria, Borgo Siliano is a place where history, love and tradition blend in perfect harmony. Our story begins in 1898 when Oliviero, a kind-hearted man with a vision, purchased this farmhouse to offer shelter to travelers passing through the countryside. What began as a humble refuge soon blossomed into a haven of hospitality, where warmth and generosity became the heart of the estate.
The hamlet consists of two main buildings, one of which once housed farm animals, a reminder of the simple yet rich way of life that characterized this land. In 2000 Oliviero’s grandson, Alessandro inherited Borgo Siliano. With a deep respect for his family’s legacy, he has lovingly cultivated the estate, growing vineyards, olive groves and organic vegetable gardens. Today, Alessandro proudly produces his own wine, olive oil and fresh vegetables, embracing a sustainable and authentic lifestyle.
Borgo Siliano has since been lovingly restored, blending rustic charm with modern elegance. Its ancient stone walls and wooden beams hold generations of stories, while its tranquil surroundings invite guests to slow down and savor la dolce vita. More than just a place, it is a place where time stands still, where romance is in the air and where unforgettable memories take shape.
In 2018, fate played its part when Alessandro met Fatima, a talented wedding planner from Umbria. Their mutual love and ability to create beautiful moments have transformed Borgo Siliano into a dream wedding destination. Together, they pour their hearts into creating celebrations filled with beauty, authenticity and heartfelt joy.
