Our story

The Farm and Holiday Cottages

Our recently refurbished one-storey building, crafted from local stone and covered with traditional terracotta roof tiles, houses 9 welcoming accommodations—including one specially designed for guests with reduced mobility. We blend tradition with innovation and sustainability: our estate is powered by solar panels, and we are committed to respecting the environment and local heritage.

The entire structure sits elevated above a magnificent, centuries-old olive grove that gently slopes toward the Ionian Sea. This privileged position offers both sweeping views of the verdant landscape and the peaceful atmosphere that comes from being surrounded by nature, yet close to the coast.

What we produce

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Our estate boasts over 20,000 ancient olive trees, some centuries old, that produce exceptional extra virgin olive oil using traditional cold-press methods.

Every drop tells a story of our land—from olives harvested at the perfect moment to the traditional stone mill pressing that preserves all the natural flavors and aromas. You can enjoy it in simple pairings, from morning bread to evening antipasti.

  • Traditional cold-press extraction
  • Ancient tree varieties

Pecorino Cheese & Garden Delights

Our freshly made sheep cheese and sheep ricotta are among our guests' favorite treats, crafted using traditional Calabrian methods passed down through generations.

The fig tree in our courtyard is a beloved staple—guests love picking fresh figs in season. Rosemary bushes perfume the air throughout the estate, and we harvest seasonal vegetables and fruits to enjoy during your stay.
