The farm

"What is art, sir? It’s concentrated nature"
Honorè de Balzac in "Lost Illusions"

You will have the opportunity to draw closer to the true meaning of rural culture, to discover the secret of the relationship between animals and plants and to experience the deep feeling which binds man to the earth.

You will be able to observe the passion and experience that goes into the production of orchard and kitchen garden produce, fruit, herbs and elderberries, which are then made into sweet jams, refined mustards and sauces, herbal teas and many other good things.

You will also be able to enjoy the company of the horses, goats and farmyard animals which are bred on our farm.

Our philosophy is based on respect for the environment and the recycling of natural resources: rainwater is conserved for irrigating cultivated land and to be drunk by the animals, dung is used as a natural fertilizer for the fields and for hot-water production, hay is also produced as an aid to our guests’ well-being.

Maso Corniolo can also accommodate your horses and four-legged friends.
