Former Benedictine convent on five hectares of parkland and woodland near Todi, Umbria
San Pietro sopra le Acque is a seventeenth-century convent above the Tiber Valley, hosting one wedding at a time with a consecrated chapel, a cloister, gardens and 15 rooms reserved for the party.
San Pietro sopra le Acque is a seventeenth-century Benedictine convent, restored as a four-star resort and set on five hectares of parkland, sacred woodland, Italian gardens and rose garden above the Tiber Valley, near Todi in southern Umbria. Stone walls, frescoed porticos, an arched cloister and cypress avenues remain largely as the monks left them.
Weddings are held one at a time, with the entire estate and all 15 rooms, sleeping about 41, reserved for the party. Couples can marry in the consecrated chapel, under the living garden arch, at the stone nymphaeum or among the roses, then celebrate in the cloister courtyard and across the grounds for up to 180 guests. Chef Michele cooks Umbrian dishes in-house, paired with wines from three local estates, and a coordinator guides the weekend from enquiry to farewell brunch. Spa Sopracque, an outdoor pool and activities such as horse riding and cookery classes fill the days. Perugia Airport is forty minutes away.

San Pietro sopra le Acque is a seventeenth-century Benedictine convent, restored as a four-star resort. Stone walls, frescoed porticos, an arched cloister and cypress avenues have come through the centuries largely intact, on five hectares of parkland, sacred woodland and Italian gardens.
Ceremonies can take place in the consecrated chapel, beneath the garden arch, at the stone nymphaeum, among the roses or in the open parkland. Celebrations then move to the cloister courtyard and across the grounds.
Chef Michele builds menus around truffles, estate olive oil and fresh pasta, with wine pairings from three Umbrian estates. Coordinator Sara and her team have looked after couples from first enquiry to farewell brunch for more than a decade.
All 15 rooms, sleeping about 41, are held for the wedding party, so the morning of the ceremony is unhurried. Spa Sopracque, the outdoor pool and activities from horse riding to cookery classes fill the days around it.
