What is Agriturismo?

Argiturismo are farms which provide accommodation and traditional meals, made with locally grown, seasonal produce. The majority are family run and you're sure of a warm welcome when you arrive. Visiting an agriturismo is a great way to immerse your self in local culture and tradition and experience Italian food at its simplest and best.

The type of accommodation in Sardinia on offer can range from basic and rustic to luxurious depending on the type of agriturismo you choose, most offer a room with a private bathroom.

It is not necessary to stay at the agriturismo, it is also possible to visit for a meal. The food served in Agriturismo will be typical to the area and the majority of it cultivated and bred at the Agriturismo you are visiting. Dishes will vary depending on the seasonal produce available, which guarantees that you are eating the freshest of produce. In Sardinia you are sure to have a selection of fresh pastas, suckling pig, strong pecorino cheeses, rounded of by the famous Sardinian Dolci

Agriturismo are generally located in the heart of the countryside and many of them have nature trails and activities such as assisting with farm tasks, picking fruits, riding horses, wine tasting. Some even have gift shops in which you can buy local handcrafts and produce. Ofcourse if this sounds like too much hard work you can always just choose to relax in the countryside while enjoying some wonderful home cooking

With many agriturismo ist is not necessary to book, but this will very much depend on the season, it is always better to contact the agriturismo in advance to make sure of availability.
