More about La Tavola Marche from the Owners:
La Tavola Marche Agriturismo & Cooking School:
“La Tavola Marche is a unique culinary experience where you actively participate in Italian culture through seasonal activities paired with local artisans, farmers, and wine makers while staying in a 300 year-old farmhouse agriturismo. If you are willing to muddy your feet, we’ll guide you off the beaten path where you will see Italy at its roots. We combine searching for the best seasonal local ingredients, hands-on cooking classes, and the conviviality of the table to help you connect with the people through their food, culture, and terra.
Located in Le Marche, between the Apennine Mountains & the Adriatic Sea, La Tavola Marche offers a pleasant farm holiday on 251+ acres of picturesque rolling hills and farmland in a truffle-rich valley. Guest accommodations are in our 300 year old stone farmhouse with spacious apartments with private bedrooms, en-suite bathroom, kitchen, dinning room, wood beam ceilings, tile floors and stone fireplaces!
Guests can explore the sprawling hiking trails or relax by the pool, in a hurry to go nowhere. The famous white & black truffles are found on the property and if you are lucky enough to visit in the fall, you can taste its unique flavor. The surrounding wooded areas are perfect for those who enjoy excursions into the forest to gather wild berries, delicious wild mushrooms, or even participate in the search for fragrant truffles under old oak trees with the guidance of an expert truffle hunter. “
La Tavola Marche offers a vacation spent in close contact with good food & wine, nature and the tradition of times gone by.”
