La Brunelde Domus Magna Fagagna

Standing on the top of a hill overlooking the town of Fagagna, period residence Brunelde Domus Magna lies right in the heart of Venezia Friuli Giulia, the Italian border region famous for its soaring mountains, deep valleys and the wealth of ancient castles, forts and military outposts, built to defend them.

Exposed stone walls, massive ceiling beams, ancient wooden floors and the occasional antique: La Brunelde's elegant bedrooms and suites are wonderfully spacious and pleasingly simple. The careful integration of contemporary technology and amenities ensures maximum comfort.

High profile banquets and sumptuous gala dinners are held in the "Hall of Justice", a vast room which once functioned as the local law courts. Those guests keen to learn more about Friuli's gastronomic traditions can enroll in one of Brunelde Domus Magna's entertaining, hands-on cooking lessons, held in the residence's "Canipa" country kitchen and dining room.

Italy's beautiful and incredibly varied Friuli region is a nature lover's paradise, as is Brunelde Domus Magna: set in 2.800sqm of gorgeous gardens and situated within easy reach of the snow-capped Friuli Dolomites and the Marano Lagoon, home to abundant and unique flora and fauna.
