Our place is very beautiful fo atural landscapes (100 lake park), castles, vicinity of cities of art (parma, piacenza, cremona, mantova, reggio) and the sea (versilia, cinque terre) and also for famous foods (parma = food valley) and very good wine ( parma hills wine). We can offer peace and quiet and different opportunities like trekking, biking, sports, and also birdwatching. It`s possible also to partecipate in the farm`s activities ( herb distillation, honey extraction, study of mushrooms), or simply to make paint watercolours or music. We should like to accomodate children`s groups for different holidays(we have experience with italian children)special is the blind-people way that we have on our land: unique that there isn`t same in all the our region. Most of foods are farm produced. Plus we have a large choice of home-made jams, spirits, herbs, essential oils. In the summer it`s possible to visit a different country festival every night. All the famous local products (ham parma, salame felino, culatello, parmesan cheese) can be bought around us and visit producing houses.
