Hotel Marilena La Casella (Cortona, Italy)

About Marilena La Casella

Located in Umbria, Agriturismo Marilena la Casella is a farm open to tourists which offers its guests a real agri-touristic experience. A farm house (called "agriturismo" in Italian) is not only an accommodation in the countryside but a way to show agriculture, its produce, farming and the relationship with nature and the surrounding territory. In the past this country house was occupied by farmers and today it has been renovated into six rustic accommodation facilities, a lovely restaurant, a swimming pool and 2 hectares of fields where we produce vegetables and breed animals. The restaurant is famous for preparing traditional recipes with food from organic growing, which is produced on our fields and in other parts of Umbria. It transforms what it cultivates and breeds into freshly home-made dishes that are served with excellent wines. Season after season they devote themselves to agriculture, letting the guests take part in the grape harvest, vegetable garden cultivation, olive picking and animals breeding. Everything is thought for you to live the authentic simple life in the countryside. They also organize cooking classes for those who love this fantastic art and special entertainment for children with our lovely animals.
