Fancy a few days of chillin’? Here is a selection of the best deals on a farm for a special stay in five beautiful Italian locations!
1) In Cosenza, a taste of the sea and authenticity
We are in Belvedere Marittimo, in the province of Cosenza, and it is in this enchanting spot only 1.5 km from the sea, with a great view of the medieval village and the Aragonese castle and the mountains of the Pollino National Park that we find Farmhouse L’Arca, located in a wellness oasis. Guests can sample
authentic cuisine at the restaurant, enjoying wholesome foods made from high-quality ingredients locally produced, such as vegetables, black pork meat from Calabria, preserves and more. In the farm you can learn more about the Mediterranean plants, discover the little zoo for children, the pond, and learn from the laboratories of production of cheese and pasta, traditional cuisine and creativity.
2) Honey for all tastes in Novara
Here we are in Carpignano Sesia in the province of Novara, at Farmhouse La Biandrina. The family-run farm offers a comfortable and homely stay, with rich breakfast prepared with genuine products like honey, jams, fresh fruit, duja salami, bacon and fresh eggs, all produced on the farm.
Each year the company produces about 15 tons of real honey, obtained from more than 60 hives; among these is the honey of acacia and chestnut, the wildflowers and rhododendron honey, which guests can enjoy at breakfast and buy at the store. Set in the countryside and bordered by extensive forests, the farmhouse is framed by the beautiful mountain range of the Sesia Valley, with the grandeur of Monte Rosa and its amazing colors. The ideal place for walking and biking, surrounded by the hills.
3) Organic stay among olive groves in Perugia
Our third stage is the Farmhouse Vocabolo Poggio del Pero, just 2 km from Panicale, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy in the hills of Lake Trasimeno,
covered with olive trees and vineyards. The typical stone farmhouse has been renovated, maintaining the original structure and it is placed in a pristine corner of Umbria. The farm has three apartments furnished in the typical style of country villas. The farm produces organic extra virgin olive oil, wine, jam purchased, while the Horse-Riding Center offers riding lessons and beautiful horse trekking itineraries in the hills overlooking the Lake. Excellent restaurant menu for the guests, with organic products of the season and Umbrian cuisine.
4) Eco-friendly holiday in Lucca
The Bed and Breakfast Corte Capitani rises in Capannori in the province of Lucca, and originated from the restoration of an old barn with hay loft. It offers six rooms,
all with private bath, equipped with modern comforts, and a common area with kitchenette. The property is surrounded by the greenery and quiet of the countryside of Lucca, but just a short distance from there, in addition to the magnificent city of Lucca – the land of Giacomo Puccini and a major stopover along the Via Francigena – opens the Versilia coast with the beautiful marble quarries of Carrara. The Bed and Breakfast follows the dictates of environmental sustainability and respect for nature: all the materials used for building restoration are natural; there are also a photovoltaic system and solar panels.
5) Walks on the trails of Cinque Terre in Corniglia
The Farmhouse Barrani is a family-run business located in the ancient and charming village of Corniglia, in the heart of Cinque Terre. The farm covers 5 hectares of vineyards and olive trees.
It deals with the production of wine to make the famous Cinque Terre DOC and the Cinque Terre Sciacchetrà D.O.C. The company also produces vegetables, fruits and legumes to make guests taste Ligurian dishes. From the farm you can leave for hiking on the trails of Cinque Terre, which connect the neighboring villages through the terraced fields. In these passages between the boundary walls you can enjoy a great view of the landscape and gorgeous views of the gardens that smell like lemons and spices. A staircase leads within minutes to the enchanting bay below the village of Corniglia. An excellent breakfast is served with farm produce, such as jams, honey, homemade biscuits, homemade bread, and focaccia.
