Between 2002 and 2003, we renovated and enlarged the original farmhouse, taking care to mantain the architectural
style and the building materials typical of this region: stone, wood,
terracotta tiles. So, in
addition to the apartment where we live, we now have two further apartments
for our guests, each with an independent entrance and a porch under which
you can have meals or read a book.
The small apartment
(50 sq. m.) consists of a kitchen/living-room with fireplace (you can
light the fire only for ornamental use, but it is not possibile to use
it for cooking) and a double sofa bed, a double bedroom (it is possibile
to add a third bed for a child) and a large bathroom with a washing
machine for the exclusive use of guests. Note that this apartment
is also accessible to handicapped persons.
This apartment can accommodate up to five people.
The large apartment
(106 sq.m.) consists of a spacious kitchen/living-room
with fireplace (you can light the fire only for ornamental use, but it
is not possibile to use it for cooking) and a wooden loft (see photos)
where two children may be easily accommodated; this apartment also has
three double bedrooms (one of which is very large and has a third bed
and, additionally, its own private bathroom) and a large bathroom with
shower, tub and a washing machine for the exclusive use of guests.
This apartment can accommodate up to ten people
Both the appartments have color TV and a Free Wide Band Wireless Internet Connection.
Our kitchens have all you need to cook by yourself (coffee maker, dishes, glasses, pots, and so on). You will also find some basic ingredients to prepare breakfast (for the first day) and meals by yourself (coffee, sugar, milk, lemon, tea, butter, biscuits and a homemade cake; salt, pepper, red hot pepper, garlic, onion, a bit of our extra vergin olive oil, vinegar)
The farmhouse is surrounded by a wide garden that allows our guests to
enjoy peaceful hours, and children to play freely in a safe place. There
is an area equipped with a barbecue and picnic table. A ping pong table
is in the garden, near the swimming pool and another one is covered, so
it is possible to play when it’s bad weather.
The
swimming pool is surrounded by shady trees and is located in
a quiet and secluded flower garden.
In the farmhouse there is a large room equipped with a gas stove and a
fire-wood oven, where it is possible to have cooking
classes: you can learn with us to make "fettuccine",
"gnocchi", pizza and many other Italian traditional recipes,
and have a nice dinner with us.
For all those who are interested in craftsmanship, we organize classes
on how to make
terracotta and pottery, as well as handloom-woven
cloth. |
