Overview
In the foothills of the Cilento National Park, there is a small family farm. Here, Amedeo and Lisa run an agricultural unicum that uses only its own products to propel the yearly production cycle. They have a small number of livestock that helps to keep the grass short and to fertilize their crops; they make their own conserves that sustain them through winter; and they built their farm house with ancient techniques and natural materials that keep it dry and warm throughout the year.
Over the last 15+ years, they've developed a unique set of skills and knowledge, that they enjoy sharing with others. Their self-sufficient farm is completely organic and features autoctonous species of many kinds, ancient grains, happy chickens, self-suffient apiculture, wild pasture, a syntropic orchard, natural soaps and so much more...
Their Agriturismo has two large en-suite bedrooms fit for 2 to 4 people each and a family apartment with fully equipped kitchen. The farm has a stunning view over the Gulf of Policastro. Nearby, you will find the town of Vibonati on your way to the seaside.
Your stay on the farm includes accommodation at B&B, full access to the veg garden and farm lands, and a number of organized activities, which you can expand according to your wishes. You'll have a choice of fun excursions both in the hills and by the sea, like catching a boatride to one of the remote beaches of the Cilento Coast, visiting one of the cold springs of the National Park, or going on a foraging hike.
You can be as involved as you wish in the farm activities. If you want to take the afternoon to relax or read, there is no pressure to join in. You will need a (rental) car or bike to get around, which we are happy to arrange for you for the duration of your trip or even just for a couple of days.
Amedeo & Lisa are waiting to welcome you in their slice of paradise!
