Farmhouse holidays are a non-stopping phenomenon in Italy: more and more people are attracted by this new, and at the same time "traditional", form of vacation, which combines fun and culture, relying to the long-lost rural fascination which restored farmhouses can display. Farmhouse holidays can suit different kind of tourism: they're ideal for single tourists, big families and couples. From Tuscany to Sicily, farmhouses are restored and converted into comfortable residences, they're frequently equipped with swimming pool and tennis courts, they offer wine and cheese degustation, they use their own produce and meat for cooking. And plus, your kids can get to know real domestic animals for once!
A farmhouse holiday will make you experience the tasty flavours of an ancient cooking tradition. Italy's food culture is not the same in the different regions you could choose for your farmhouse holiday. Even food names hardly sounds "Italian" to foreigners' ears; but if you think spaghetti and pizza are the main courses in Italy, you’ll be surprised by the great variety of food displayed in every region, almost in every village you visit. Spending your time in a holiday farmhouse, you’ll taste produce, cured meat and dairy products created by our own landlords. Not to mention the fact that most of the food produced in holiday farmhouses is organic.
In Italy holiday farmhouses are common in all the country, but especially in the Central regions: Tuscany, Umbria, Le Marche are the most famous regions for farmhouse holidays. But the other Italian regions are quickly catching up, since this kind of holiday is very successful: Puglia (Apulia), Sicily and Calabria are now getting the scene, offering a more mediterranean look. Living in a farmhouse allows the tourists to experience directly the Italian lifestyle in the most beautiful areas of Italy, tasting produce and products raised and produced directly in the farm. A holiday in a farmhouse can provide a well balanced mix of relax, culture, nature and fantastic food.
Spending a holiday in a farmhouse is the best way to appreciate the hospitality and truthfulness of your landlords. You'll live in a "big Italian family", with all the confidence and informality which will make you at ease in any situation. That's one of the main reasons for the success of farmhouse holidays in Italy: you become part of the family, and you really experience life in the most charming and fascinating Italian areas. Your hosts will suggest you the most beautiful places to visit, and you'll get the chance to taste the local traditional food, often raised and produced in the farmhouse. And you'll want to take some goodies with you to remember your pleasure time, once you come back home.
