Pernottamento
We like things done the old-fashioned way, long times, spring days, good raw materials, simple cooking.


From the children's amazement at the sight of the animals, fruits and tools in the large common room, an amazement shared by us, originates the idea of also becoming an educational farm.Thus an open-air workshop was born on our farm: from the large lime tree at the entrance among the aromatic herbs and in the company of our dog Poldo, a path winds its way from the horses in the wild and the vegetable garden to the large stable. This is our 'Old Farm': newly hatched chicks, chickens laying eggs, guinea fowl, pigeons, lambs, sheep, pigs, rabbits and more!
