  • Description

    Description

    Our farm overlooks the Sibillini Mountains National Park, near the small village of Smerillo. The house is surrounded by woods and silence. There is a lovely garden and a panoramic terrace where you can relax. You can stay here enjoying the company of our animals: a dog, a cat, chickens, and goats.
    The area offers opportunities for mountain walks and the sea is just an hour away.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    As we are located in the countryside, a car is necessary for getting around. Towns offering all amenities are 12–15 km away. The nearest bar is 2 km away. We have a large vegetable garden where you can pick fresh vegetables.

  • Help

    Help

    We ask our guests to take care of our animals when we are away. We are looking for someone with some experience in handling farm animals.
    Lilly (our dog) and Sancho (our cat) sleep indoors; they need to be fed and given water twice a day—morning and evening.
    Every morning, the chickens in the coop need food and water.
    As for the 15 goats, the barn must be opened in the morning and closed in the evening, making sure all of them are present. You will also need to turn the electric fence on and off as required and check that it is working properly.
    The help is very simple and undemanding, taking up a maximum of one hour a day, split between morning and evening.
