The family-run restaurant serves cuisine prepared using carefully selected zero mile ingredients.

3 suites with independent entrances, traditionally renovated and furnished with pieces by local craftsmen, comprising bathrooms with showers, free minibars (with the exception of Lo Sguardo) and kettles. In more detail: Lo Sguardo is suitable for disabled guests, and offers a four poster bed, an exposed flame majolica stove, a lounge with minibar and two bathrooms; I Girasoli, with local sunflower patterned pottery which gives the suite its name, offers a sofa bed and dining area; Il Fienile comprises a hall and living area, a sleeping area with double bed and a sofa bed.

 

There is also plenty of outdoor space for guests to relax, along with a dining room, a small library and board games.

    "A very nice place to be - a magical and welcoming place"

    08/18/2016

    We spent a wonderful week in rent required by Donatella. We enjoyed the friendliness and hospitality of the whole family, Donatella, his son and his 2 "fiance". Dogs have also adopted us after some time. The rental is not easy to find, but the location is fantastic. Superb views with sunsets, quiet and charm of the countryside. The "the Glance" room is really well equipped and is great which is very cozy. Donatella's kitchen is very good and very - too - plentiful (we reduced our ambitions in many dishes). We strongly recommend that you go there.

    Donatella and her two sons Maximiliano and Nico did everything to make us to feel at home. They are very polite and a helpful family. Donatella is an active woman always doing something, very hardworking as their sons; you can also buy one of their excellents organics products: zafran, lavanda, wine, oil. Regarding the kitchen : the food was excellent, excellent quality products used every day and a varied menu. The room was large, super-clean and comfortable. The location of the house is great, on top of a hill, so the view is magnificent, here we find peace and a relaxing atmosphere ; and what to say about Lucy and Chuky their two dogs, they are just adorable !! We truly recommend this place to stay , you will certainly love. This place and this family are fantastic!
