Step into history at Casaforte Bergum, a lovingly restored medieval fortified site nestled between the mountains and the sea—just minutes from Cividale del Friuli, Udine, and the Collio wine region. Peaceful yet well-connected, it offers complete tranquility for rest, focus, or meaningful remote work, framed by views of Friuli’s Eastern Hills and the Alps. Set in the heart of the hamlet, La Foresteria welcomes you with quiet charm and thoughtful detail. On the ground floor, the vintage kitchen—with wood-burning stove, oven, a restored 1960s fridge, and a large farmhouse table—encourages shared moments. The living room, with its stone fireplace and garden-facing glass doors, invites slow living and calm evenings. Sleeping arrangements include four bedrooms: one single on the ground floor, two doubles with king-size beds, and one single upstairs. Three bathrooms provide comfort and privacy. Beds are dressed in fresh linen or percale, and every detail in the house is selected with care. A separate laundry area supports longer stays. Outdoors, the garden and the 7-acre park offer shaded spots for rest and reading. On request, we can help organize aperitifs, private dinners, or intimate events—with local chefs or catering. We don’t use pesticides—coexisting with nature is part of the Casaforte Bergum experience, including occasional visits from friendly garden creatures.
I’m Alessandra Serafini, and my deep connection to Casaforte Bergum comes from the fact that my family has lovingly cared for it for nearly three centuries. I inherited a passion for architecture and design from my mother. Alongside my husband, I’ve continued her work, restoring and preserving Casaforte Bergum with deep respect for its heritage and cultural value. I live in another house on the property and warmly welcome guests upon arrival, helping make their stay in Friuli unforgettable through curated recommendations and insight into the most authentic and exclusive local experiences.
The gently rolling hills of Friuli are famed for their world-class wines, but the region also offers flat lands laced with rivers, enriching its rural beauty. This is the landscape that cradles Casaforte Bergum. Just a short drive away, you’ll discover a treasure trove of art, history, and culture, including five UNESCO World Heritage sites: • The Longobard site of Cividale del Friuli • The ancient Basilica and archaeological area of Aquileia • The star-shaped fortress town of Palmanova • The prehistoric stilt houses of Palù di Livenza • The magnificent Dolomites across the provinces of Udine and Pordenone Friuli Venezia Giulia preserves a rich legacy of castles and noble residences stretching from the Carnic Alps to the Adriatic coast. Cities like Trieste — a timeless crossroads of Central European culture — offer museums, spiritual trails, and events year-round. In just 40 minutes, you can reach the golden beach of Grado, with its elegant charm and historic old town; the lively seaside resort of Lignano with excellent marinas; or Marano, a quaint fishing village in the heart of a stunning nature reserve. For mountain lovers, the Carnic and Julian Alps, along with the Dolomites near Sappada, promise thrilling adventures in climbing and winter sports. The Wine and Flavours Route of Friuli Venezia Giulia takes you on an unforgettable journey through exceptional wines and authentic regional cuisine. Just a few kilometers from Bergum lies the renowned Collio, where scenic vineyards and top-tier wineries produce celebrated “super whites.” Explore hidden gems among small local producers, and savor both Michelin-starred dining and rustic trattorias where borderland traditions meet culinary innovation — always with a dedication to local ingredients.
