Painting Holiday
Il Castello di Santa Cristina, a rural hideaway set deep in the Italian countryside that encourages you to step away from the usual tourist trails and uncover the richness of the little-known Alta Tuscia region (between Tuscany and Umbria).
It has been described by experts as a marvellous location in Italy for a painting holiday, where you can be inspired to make the most of the spectacular countryside and enjoy the amazing diversity of the region.
The farm buildings and grounds around the Castle have been lovingly restored by the owner himself, Count Antonello Caterini, who, with a great deal of determination and enthusiasm, re-shaped and developed his attractive home and the environment into a peaceful haven where you can escape the pressures of life and find time to indulge in your own passion of painting with the opportunity to learn new skills or develop and explore your own creativity, in this ‘area of outstanding natural beauty’!
The variety of painting/drawing opportunities in this diverse area of Italy is staggering and can include: Etruscan tombs and settlements, Roman ruins, Renaissance art and Medieval castles as well as the magic of the countryside, lakes and mountains.
