We aim to protect local culture and traditions. We are as well very concerned with ecology and the environment on a global scale as well as here on our own property where we take every precaution possible to protect the land and everything that lives on it. We recycle garbage, cultivate organically, and take great care not to waste resources such as water, electricity, etc.
Breakfasts are composed of bread, butter, several different types of local honeys and local marmelades. Coffee and tea.
Dinners: we are in the Mediterranean country, so Mediterranean cuisine. With lots of pork meat and wine, too. Prosciutto, sausages, baked pork...
