Spending a farmhouse holiday in Italy is becoming more and more fashionable among tourists. Italy and Italians are really inclined to this new kind of tourism. All Italian regions still maintain countryside areas which provide the opportunity to get in touch with nature and tradition: from Veneto and Piedmont to the more famous Tuscany an Umbria, a famhouse holiday offer more than a vacation, a life experience, likely to become a lifelasting good memory. Away from the crowded and frenetic routes of "professional tourism", your farmhouse accomodation will set a different rythm for your holiday.
A holiday farmhouse in Lombardy is an ideal accomodation either for a long vacation or for a short break in Italy. Lombardy is the easiest reachable region in Italy: different international airport are in Lombardy (Malpensa, Linate, Bergamo). A few-hour flight can take you from the grey and noisy city to the green and silent farmhouse on Lake Como. And for a couple of days you can relax while the kids can get in touch with domestic animals (horses, goats, cows and ducks) and a healthy lifestyle.
A farmhouse holiday invites you to discover and experience new itineraries every day. Whether your vacation is long-period staying or just a short week-end, you'll have many opportunities the savour the magical atmosphere of the farmhouse's life. What makes a farmhouse holiday a true life-experience is its direct connection with Italian rural roots, an ancient civilization is living a new dinamic phase of its history. Tuscany is already a symbol for this new form of accomodation and hospitality, especially among foreigner tourists, but holiday farmhouses are present and well-organised in all Italian regions.
A farmhouse holiday in Lombardy will make you experience the tasty flavours of an ancient rural cooking tradition, which characterised the region before the Industrialisation. Northern Italy's food culture is quite different from the Southern one, the most reknowed outside Italy, often and incorrectly identified as the only "Italian cooking style". Even food names hardly sounds "Italian" to foreigners' ears: buseca, casoeula, bruscitt. But risotto and polenta are all the rage in high-class restaurants and they're staples of Nothern Italy's cuisine, as much as spaghetti are the symbol of Southern Italy's tradition. Another Northern delicacy is cured meat, which is often produced by farmhouses' landlords.
