- A real farmVines, olives, cheese or vegetables come first. Rooms are a second activity, by law.
- Food from the landBreakfast and dinner use the farm’s own products: wine, oil, jams, salumi.
- In the countrysideUsually on a hill, a few kilometres from the nearest village. A car helps.
How we choose the farms
Every farm on this site is a working farm listed as an agriturismo, and every one is rated 8.5 or more by at least 20 guests. Below that line we leave it out, however pretty the photos. The lists are sorted by rating weighted by the number of reviews, so a farm rated 9.6 by 600 guests comes before one rated 9.9 by twelve.
For each farm we add two facts you will not find on the booking page: its height above sea level and its distance to the nearest village. A farm on a hilltop at 480 m gets the view and the breeze; a farm 2 km from a village lets you walk to dinner. The small hill drawing next to each farm shows whether it sits on a summit, on a slope or in the plain.
Which region for which trip
Vines and cypress hills
Tuscany has by far the most farms, from the Chianti vineyards to the Val d’Orcia and the Maremma coast. Umbria is the quieter, greener neighbour, with olive oil, Assisi and lower prices. Piedmont is the choice for wine lovers: Barolo, Barbaresco and the white truffle of Alba in autumn.
Sea and sun
Puglia has the masserie, fortified farmhouses among ancient olive trees, and the trulli of the Valle d’Itria. Sicily adds Etna, citrus groves and baroque towns. In Sardinia the agriturismo dinner is an institution of its own.
Lakes and mountains
Around Lake Garda, farms grow olives, lemons and Bardolino wine within reach of the shore. In the Dolomites, the farms are alpine: fewer pools, more meadows, spas and mountain views.
Before you book
Rent a car: most farms are a few kilometres from the nearest village, often at the end of a gravel road. Check whether dinner is served, and on which nights; many farms cook for guests a few evenings a week, and some offer half board. Pools usually open from May to late September. In July and August, many farms ask for a minimum stay of a week.

Agriturismo in Italy: questions
What is an agriturismo?
A working farm that rents rooms or apartments to guests. Italian law requires farming to remain the main activity and the food served to come mostly from the farm or the area.
Which region has the most agriturismi?
Tuscany by far: we list 418 farms there, ahead of Puglia and Umbria.
How much does an agriturismo cost?
In June, the cheapest night for two we saw was €35; the middle price across Italy is €135.
Do you need a car?
Almost always. Most farms are a few kilometres from the nearest village, on gravel roads. Each farm on this site shows its distance to the village.
