Although the farmhouse is quite remote - and a car is needed to get anywhere from here - the beauty of the natural environment, the birdsong and the fresh air all more than compensate. This is particularly an experience for nature-lovers,
families needing amenities nearby would need to consider this.
The host was very welcoming and spoke good English. The house was well-equipped with everything you would need (apart from towels), especially if - as we do - you enjoy cooking, and the period features and solid rustic furniture and fittings helped to create a comfortable and authentic experience.
our host also helped us to arrange, for a reasonable fee, for a friend to visit the house to give us a fantastic pasta-making class which was truly awesome, our children enjoyed this so much, I know this will always be a special memory for them now and they have acquired a new skill. The kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity of our host (and our cooking teacher) really made this a very special experience for us.
