I'll come to satisfy myself with quietness
memories, scents,
in an ideal life style.

On the sweet slopes of Scerni, about 10 Km from the sea, there is a farm resort called "Olive-grove's Farm" embedded in the fields owned by Di Lello family. Prevailing cultivations are vines, olive-trees, drupaceae, cereals and vegetables
Both cultivations and breedings are based on BIOLOGICAL AGRICULTURE METHODS. The farm is member of Suolo e Salute ("Ground and Health" association).

The Olive-grove Farm
The Restaurant

The restaurant has a limited number of seats, to guarantee the quality and veracity of foods.
We think feeding means culture, history and tradition too. In this case cooking belongs to peasants' tradition, also known as mediterranean diet.
About 90% of ingredients for our dishes come from our farm.
Specialties are: spelt and field vegetables, legumes, Ventricina, 'ndurciullun (a kind of pasta), stuffed rabbit, roasted duck, etc.
All wines are produced by ourselves with BIOLOGICAL TECHNIQUES. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is the red wine, while Greco, Malvasia, Cococciola, Trebbiano are white ones. We are member of "Wine Lover's Tours" of Abruzzo.

We have 12 beds, in 6 rooms with bath. Furniture are in rustic and old fashioned style. Rest is assured, the only risk is ... to be woken up by cock-crow. For large groups we bound ourselves to find further lodging in the neighbourhood, on demand.

A Room
The Swimming Pool

Along the old cattle-track there is a swimming pool for guests, embedded in stones and tuff.
You can do beautiful walk or mountain-bike rides along rural pathways through olive-groves, vineyards and oak-groves. Distiller and cooking courses are available on demand. It is possible to watch free animals.

You can arrive at the sea in 10 minutes by car. This part of Abruzzo coast is quite varied: sandy beach, clifs, dunes create a great evocative landscape. It is possible to take a trip for Tremiti Islands in a day leaving Port of Vasto by ferry-boat.
