Agriturismo BioAgriturismo Masseria San Iorio

The farmhouse is located in Castel di Sangro, in the mountains, in a splendid area on the border with upper Molise and the Abruzzo and Maiella National Parks, in the SIC area “Cerrete di Monte Pagano e Feudozzo.” This is a small, family-run farmhouse growing organic forest fruits, where you can spend in all tranquility a lovely holiday.

On the farmhouse’s garden you may listen to the silence of the night and observe an incredible starry sky.

From the renovation of the old stable, strongly based on the recycling of materials and furnishings, the " Corte della Masseria " was born, a structure designed to maximize energy savings and environmental comfort through the skilful combination of mostly natural and environmentally friendly materials, with the help of systems that enhance what has already been given by the surrounding environment: the warmth of the sun, the goodness of the air, the filtering power of plants and soil. In it there are six large bedrooms with a central "court", which also leads to the large multi-purpose hall.

Those who wish can participate in the activities of the farm, in a sort of stage to savor the ancient peasant rhythms. Besides everything necessary for cooking, guests will also find their own confectionery for breakfast in the cupboard and will be able to stock up on fruit and vegetables from the orchard and the surrounding vegetable gardens. Ideal for nature lovers, healthy foods, living in harmony with the environment.

A stay immersed in ancient flavors and aromas, where everything is relaxation and naturalness. It is the ideal experience for those who want to breathe a bit of "good", taste genuine flavors, enjoy nature by integrating with it and, almost disappearing, observe it, or simply show their children the vegetable gardens, the forest, the animals of the farm, taste the fruits picked directly from the plant and much more. In the well-equipped picnic area it is possible to appreciate the mainly vegetarian cuisine offered by the managers, with typical Abruzzo dishes.
