Antognolla castle in Umbria, “the green heart of Italy,” is being transformed into a Six Senses resort, offering guests and golfers a soothing countryside retreat.
For almost a millennium, the Castle of Antognolla has punctured a skyline of seemingly endless rolling forested hills. Once the site of a Benedictine monastery, it has been a battlefield to bloody sieges, a tomb to a patron saint, and a seat to distinguished noble families. Now, the towering monument is transforming to usher in a new, more peaceful era, one that developers in the Umbria region — Italy’s oft-overlooked “green heart”— hope will see Europe’s leading luxury resort spring forth.
Step by step Despite its grand plans, Antognolla has had to work hard to match the popularity of the courses sprawled across the Iberian Peninsula. Although it was recognized as Italy’s best course at the World Golf Awards in both 2020 and 2022, Burguière admits that the site’s relatively remote setting has presented challenges in attracting an international clientele.
