Gardasøen & Veneto

In an Oasis of serenity and quietness between rolling hills and a view to the south-western part of Lake Garda, you find this olive farm and Agruturismo "Il Podere degli Ulivi". Here is the ideal place for relaxation in interaction with nature. The harmony of the green and blue colours in the landscape is a blessing to the soul. In the nearby forrest squirrels, pheasants, rabbits and foxes live well on the goodies of nature. Among other things the competition for the many hazelnuts is great, since they are food for both the wildlife and the Nutella loving people. All of the farm is one big piece of unspoiled nature where you can enjoy the view at sunset accompanied by the sounds of owls and frogs.

The farm, that for generations has been owned by the Beretta family, houses a mixture of olive- and fruittrees - especially apple, quince and pomegranates. Furthermore you will find a wide range of peach-, apricot-, plum-, cherry- and figtrees. Mama uses all of the fruits for her homemade specialties, which besides the above, are made up of pickled tomatoes, peppers and fennel. The farm also houses hundreds of parmesan and Grana Padano cheeses for storing and maturing. In the reception you kan see, taste and buy all of these delicious, homemade specialties, that can also be used as appetisers or as accompaniment for the veal being grilled on olive branches in the outdoor kitchen by the pool. Here you will also find a large outdoor dining area and a cosy gazebo with tables and chairs.

On the field of grass between the many fruit- and olivetrees lies 11 appartments with rafters and kitchens in warm colours, creating af sense of relaxation and serenity. All rooms have a private entry, cornerkitchen, bathroom with shower and WC, airconditioning, central heating, safe, TV and mosquito nets in all windows. The farm itself has one appartment of four rooms, four appartments of three rooms and six appartments of six rooms ranging from 35 m2 (378 ft2) to 98 m2 (1,055 ft2). Two of the appartments are handicap-friendly.
