A family-run agriturismo in the heart of Piedmont: a vacation surrounded by animals, relaxation, and authentic products
Immerse yourself in the tranquility and carefree atmosphere of our countryside, in a friendly, family-friendly atmosphere where you can freely admire our animals, enjoy the genuine and authentic flavors of our cuisine, and be captivated by our spicy products, created simply and with great passion.
The Animal Park - our main passion, a great commitment, but even greater pleasure and satisfaction, in raising and caring for them. In our park, you can admire every type of animal: classic farmyard animals, as well as more unique, unusual, and exotic ones. There are dozens of different breeds, from native to the most exotic. You can see various enclosures, home to ostriches (which we have been raising since 1991), deer, bison, Tibetan goats, donkeys, llamas, and alpacas, as well as rabbits that roam in and out of their home. The cows, meanwhile, are kept in the barn during the winter and have access to a large meadow in the summer to graze on. The pigs, which live in the pigsty during the winter, are moved to a large outdoor pen during the warmer months. Peacocks are housed in the aviary, while ducks, geese, and other farmyard animals roam freely.
The park adjacent to the restaurant features a relaxing pond, home to dozens of turtles and numerous fish. Fallow deer roam opposite, where the dominant male stands out with his imposing antlers.
We offer two welcoming and comfortable double rooms, each equipped with a kitchenette and an outdoor veranda, in addition to the standard amenities, to ensure a relaxing and private stay. Both rooms include a private bathroom with shower, satellite TV, and a kitchenette with refrigerator, designed to allow you to cook something in the evening (since we don't have a restaurant open). You'll find everything you need for breakfast, featuring both our own and other products. Independent heating for the winter; independent air conditioning for the summer; private veranda where you can have breakfast or dinner while watching the animals graze in their pens; private entrance.
The farmhouse restaurant offers a friendly atmosphere and authentic cuisine made with meat from our own farm, vegetables from our gardens, and flour ground in our small mill. It is open for lunch on Saturdays and Sundays (as well as holidays), while snacks begin at 4:30 pm on the same days. We are also open in the evenings for dinner, aperitifs, or private events, most Saturdays or during the week upon request with a minimum of 15 people.
