    Description

    We own a 15-hectare farm, pastures, hills, and a calf farm.
    My mother loves flowers and the vegetable garden, and my father is the herdsman. Both are retired, so we decided to regenerate our farm to give people the opportunity to connect with nature, recharge, and relax in complete peace.
    My parents don't live on the farm, but live 5 km away, so for most of the time, you'll have the house all to yourself.

    We've chosen not to turn the farm into something commercial; we simply want to keep our estate alive, which is full of spontaneous love through a fair exchange between maintenance and physical and mental well-being.

    Possediamo una fattoria di 15 ettari, pascoli, colline e un allevamento di vitelli.
    Mia madre ama i fiori e l'orto, mio padre è il mandriano della stalla, ma sono entrambi in pensione così abbiamo deciso di rigenerare la nostra masseria per dare la possibilità alle persone di stare a contatto con la natura, ricaricarsi e di rilassarsi in totale pace.
    I miei genitori non abitano nella masseria, ma abitano a 5 km di distanza dalla Masseria, quindi nell' esperienza per la maggior parte delle occasioni avrete casa tutta per voi

    Abbiamo scelto di non trasformare la masseria in qualcosa di commerciale, vogliamo semplicemente tenere in vita la nostra tenuta che è ricca di amore spontaneo attraverso uno scambio equo tra manutenzione ed equilibrio psicofisico
