(PRESS RELEASE) HONG KONG, 2025-May-19 — /Travel PR News/ — Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes is thrilled to announce the addition of Castello di Procopio, a 12th-century estate nestled in the heart of Italy’s Umbria region, to its exclusive portfolio. This extraordinary 8-bedroom estate marks Mandarin Oriental’s debut in Umbria, offering guests an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in the region’s rich cultural heritage while enjoying the renowned service and luxury for which Mandarin Oriental is known.
Originally commissioned in the 12th century by Holy Roman Emperor Frederico Barbarossa, Castello di Procopio served as a strategic fortress. The restoration of this storied estate has been an ambitious and meticulous process, guided by historical records and blueprints. The restoration has breathed new life into the medieval architecture, restoring ancient stonework, vaulted ceilings, and intricate details, blending heritage with modern comfort.
The estate is set amidst 11 private acres of olive groves, vineyards, and wildflower meadows, offering an idyllic retreat with sweeping views toward Assisi. Guests can indulge in the peace and beauty of the Umbrian countryside while experiencing the comfort and sophistication of a luxury estate.
The interiors of Castello di Procopio reflect a refined elegance, featuring eight individually designed en-suite bedrooms that accommodate up to 16 guests. Each room is thoughtfully appointed with fine Italian linens, bespoke furnishings, and modern comforts, offering an authentic yet luxurious experience. The estate’s grand reception hall, intimate library, and inviting bar lounge provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The experience at Castello di Procopio goes beyond simply staying in a historic estate. Guests can begin their day with a customized breakfast prepared by the Mandarin Oriental approved private chef, featuring local ingredients from Umbria. The estate offers a wealth of luxurious amenities, including an outdoor infinity pool with stunning views, a spa suite with massage services, and a private cinema room.
Guests can also explore the lush gardens, enjoy bocce under the cypress trees, or indulge in a private wine tasting tour in Montefalco. For those seeking more cultural immersion, the concierge can arrange a visit to the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi.
Evenings at the estate are filled with magic, as guests can enjoy aperitifs on the terrace and dine on exquisite Italian cuisine such as Carpaccio di Chianina con Tartufo Nero di Norcia and Filetto di Coregone del Lago Trasimeno con Erbe di Campo, prepared by the Mandarin Oriental chef.
