Casa rural Agriturismo Le Farnie (Altomonte, Italy)

About Agriturismo Le Farnie

Le Farnie is situated 350 metres above sea-level on the hills of Altomonte, in Calabria, near the national park of Pollino, between the Tyrrhenian and Ionian seas. It is an organic farm and produces extra-virgin olive oil in its own artisan olive press. Guests are accommodated in a farmhouse built at the end of the 1800s and now entirely renovated, furnished with antiques and opens onto a portico with a panoramic view. Guest accommodation consists of five bedrooms with bath en suite; meals can be taken in a restaurant that seats fifty persons. Guests can enjoy good, traditional food (book in advance). Guests can take part in the everyday activities on the farm: for example, olive-picking and helping to produce extra-virgin olive oil in the farm’s own artisan olive press; or preparing vegetables in oil, jam and marmalade. They can also take courses in cookery or agriculture. Or they can enjoy walks or go for rides on a mountain bike.
