Lake Garda
Lake Garda is arguably the most beautiful lake in Italy, a Mediterranean oasis in Northern Italy with cypresses, olive groves and orchards of lemon
trees growing in abundance.
The Agriturismo Fattoria is eight kilometres above the lake with a beautiful view over the hillsides sloping down into the water.
“Agriturismo Fattoria” means farmhouse which is exactly what this old stone house is, surrounded by
twenty-five hectares of land, the only noises off stage being the clucking of chickens and the stamping of animals in their stalls, the intoxicating
fragrance of freshly cut hay and the more pungent smells emanating from the animal farm greeting the guests at breakfasts as they look down over the
cusp of the lawn towards the blue waters of the lake.
Your hosts' father was a vet. responsible for the whole lakeside who was called upon to minister, among other “patients”, to the greyhounds of
Gabriele d'Annunzio, whose magnificent villa, Il Vittoriale degli Italiani, is at one end of the lake.
The Agriturismo has its own restaurant where much of the produce served comes from the farm. Menus feature very high quality meat of beef, veal, court’s little animals, vegetables from the property, homemade salami and local cheeses and wines.
Rooms. Two different venues for guests of the Agriturismo: the first is in the house above the restaurant where there are four bedrooms. The Rosa di Macchia room has two single wrought iron beds and a bathroom with shower. The Viola
del Pensiero has a double bed with bathroom with shower. The Viola Mammola is a large room with a four-poster bed and bathroom with tub. The Frutti di Bosco is a room with a double bed and two single beds in the overhead loft with a bathroom with tub.
The second half of the Agriturismo is an old stone house dating back to the 1700's with 5 bedrooms: one has two single beds and a double sofa bed and bathroom with tub. The second has a double four-poster bed and a double sofa bed and bathroom with tub. There is also a twin-bedded room with a double sofa bed and a bathroom with tub. Two more large rooms: one with two single beds with a little terrace and an overhead gallery with a queen-sized bed and a bathroom with tub, the other a
twin-bedded room with an overhead gallery with two single beds. All the rooms have television and telephone.
English, French and German are spoken. Pets and children are welcome and there are cots for infant guests. Dinner in the restaurant.
The Agriturismo is open all year round.

Our Farm consists of kiwi, plum and olive orchards. One of these, which covers about 10 hectares (over 22 acres), is centered around an old stone farmhouse dating back to 1850 and its attached rural buildings. The complex has been restructured into eight one, two and three-room apartments able to accommodate from 2 to 7 people , with a large grassy area in front for relaxing and playing.All apartments are on ground level , have elegantly appointed bathroom with a shower and hairdryer, and a porch covered with open chestnut beams and terra cotta tiles, that offers another table and chairs for outdoor dining. The carefully chosen furnishings, the warmly colored and welcoming fabrics, the antique furniture and elegant wrought iron finishings together make the Podere agritourism complex one of superior level that remains respectful of its country style.
The surrounding fields, which extend to the edge of the lake, are covered mostly by kiwi orchards.
A 150-meter-long path cuts through the orchard and leads you directly to the quiet of the lake. There you will be welcomed by a stretch of lawn and beach equipped for bathing, where your privacy is assured by the impenetrability of the adjacent reeds. The sandy shore gradually declines into the lake, lending to a shallow area that is well-suited for swimming, even for small children. A splendid “ontano” (alder), a typical lake tree, sinks its roots directly into the shore and acts as a frame for this suggestive corner of the lake. Canoe outings along the reeds will allow you to bird watch the many species found on the lake, while sun worshipers can enjoy laying in the sun on the beach, or directly on the water on one of our “Malibu” floating beds. Upon request, we can organize informal meals directly on the beach. Homemade jams (kiwi, plum, fig, raspberry, kumquat) and breakfast sweets will cheer your stay. We also sell local fruit, oil and wine.
The RESTAURANT SERVICE is also available and reserved only for the farmhouse’s guests . The dinner is served inside the ancient hamlet , owner’s residence.
