What Travel Press have to say:
"In the foothills of St. Francis' beloved Mount Subasio, a short
distance from Assisi, this 16th-century stone farmhouse has been carefully
restored by Stefano and Rebecca Bagnoli. Rebecca is a native American
and originally came over to Italy to study. Stefano is an architectural
land surveyor, so this was the perfect project for this young couple.
A welcome basket awaits, full of goodies from the farm: wine, eggs, cheese,
honey, olive oil and home-made jams. In the bathrooms Rebecca leaves her
handmade soap and a little sprig of lavender. There are pigs on the farm,
so they also produce ham, salami and sausages, as well as red and white
wine. From the vegetable garden you may pick whatever you like - red peppers,
fat tomatoes and huge lettuces. The rooms are light and airy and much
of Stefano's grandmother's furniture has been used. The apartments are
quite independent but guests can come together in the evening in the communal
garden. You are deep in the Mount Subasio National Park."
Alastair Sawday's Special Places to Stay
http://www.sawdays.co.uk/
"... I stayed within a natural park in a 16th-century farmhouse amid
the foothills of Monte Subasio. The accommodation was part of the increasingly
popular 'agritourism', in which owners of small-holdings let out rooms
or apartments on their farmland.
The setting was idyllic, and you couldn't escape the host's generous offerings
of home-made pasta, fresh pesto and torta al testo (flatbread filled with
cheese)."
The Daily Mail, UK
"If you plan to stay for a longer stretch, try this 16th century
farmhouse, on a working farm, which has recently been converted into three
self-catering apartments, each of which houses 4-6 [sic] people. They
offer fine views over Subasio, as well as the chance to experience rural
life and purchase fresh meat, vegetables, eggs, and cheese from the premises."
