Il Cavicchio

The building used to be an old barn with hayloft. It has been totally rebuilt in 2005.

Every morning, breakfast is served to guests in the dining room, with its sandstone fireplace and its solid chestnut-tree tables. Breakfast will come with fresh fruits from the fields, home-made tarts and jams, honey, cereals, yoghurtsfruit juices, etc.
Everybody sits at the same table: a chance to get to know each other, in a moment of warmth and communication, so rare in the bustling modern life.

All rooms are for two persons (either as king bed or 2 twin beds). All are provided with free WIFI, TV, fan and regulable heating. All rooms have country-style furniture and a private bathroom. Books and paintings give a warm "home" feeling.

A nice pool amidst flowers will give you relax and coolness during hot days.

The farm fields are cultivated according to the principles of organic agriculture.
The environment is extraordinarily varied, thanks to the multiplicity of the cultivated plants, from vineyards to fruit trees, from vegetables to officinal plants, from strawberries to blackberries.
Inside the estate you can walk through a wood of almost two hectares. Here you can see the typical flora of our region: oaks, acacias, maples, chestnut trees, elms, ash trees, junipers, hawthorns, dogwoods, ivies, old man's beards (clematis vitalba) and many other types of plants and herbs with gorgeous flowers. It's not rare to find wild boards' traces or to run into woodpeckers, hares, pheasants, squirrels and even roe deers. An easy track goes through the forest, till you reach a spectacular oak (at least 350 years old).

Environment committment has always been our polar star, from the farmhouse, built according to sustainable architecture, to energy sources (solar panels, wood boiler), from waste management to wet waste composting and reuse. We are proud to have been awarded the eco-certification of Legambiente, the major italian association for environment preservation.
