The agriturismo

The farmhouse is located in the heart of the Alfina plain, an unspoiled corner of the Alta Tuscia region at the border between Umbria and Tuscany, between Orvieto and Lake Bolsena, and close to Monte Amiata, the Val d'Orcia, and the San Casciano thermal baths.

The agriturismo takes its name from the ancient stone farmhouse, which has been featured on maps since the 18th century and has always been referred to as Pulicaro or Pulicaio.

The farmhouse is situated at the center of a 60-hectare organic farm where grazing animals are raised with care and ample space. 

The agriturismo offers rooms, apartments, an agri-restaurant, and a farm shop.

The accommodation

Each lodging recreates a family atmosphere and is furnished with care and simplicity, and is equipped with a central heating system and private bathroom.
We have apartments and rooms that, if necessary, can become communicating.

In addition to their own lodging, guests can enjoy the large garden, equipped with deck chairs, tables and chairs. The garden has an area of one hectare, is home to two majestic mulberry trees several hundred years old, which can be appreciated especially in summer, and a remarkable variety of flowers and plants.

Next to the farmhouse, in the large garden, there is also the large restaurant hall, built in an old stable.
During the warm season, on weekends and holidays, we serve lunch and dinner in the garden, in the courtyards naturally made by trees and flowering bushes. We offer tasty and wholesome dishes, made with the fresh and seasonal raw materials from our farm.

The organic farm is spread over 60 hectares of land, where there are woods, olive groves, orchards of old varieties of plants.
The areas are bordered by large fences where the animals we raise graze: chickens, pigs, sheep, goats, cows and many other animals, which have all the space they need for movement and natural feeding.Agricultural production is operated with total respect for the environmental balance and is focused on egg and meat production.

Ten hectares are left to coppice forest, where excellent mushrooms and chestnuts can be found, which is used for the production of wood that is then used for the farm's needs. In fact, the wood boiler, combined with a system of thermosolar panels, is used to heat the entire farmhouse. Thanks to this system, gas consumption is reduced by up to 80 percent, drastically decreasing the environmental impact.

Also with an ecological perspective, in our farmhouse we do not have a swimming pool.

Activities and surrounding

In a hilly landscape (550 m a.s.l.) between the lake and the mountains, in an area dotted with natural beauty and art villages, a stay at the property is ideal both for those who wish to spend a dynamic vacation, discovering the "pearls" of central Italy, and for those who simply wish to relax away from the chaos of the city.
The location of the Pulicaro farmhouse is barycentric with respect to a historical, artistic and cultural heritage of exceptional value

We stayed here as a group of three families with toddlers and it was fantastic. The set up of a main living room for parents to relax (and sip excellent wine) while little ones sleep was a bonus. Chiara was very flexible and kind with changing travel plans and we all loved the f... Read more
