The Farmhouse  is situated on the border between the Marche and Umbria regions, in the heart of the Apennine Mountains. It is located half-way between Gubbio and Urbino, in the territory of the municipality of Cagli, and it spreads over an area of over 20 hectares. The farmland is used for cereal cultivations, fruit trees and small animal breeding. The area is rich in woods, streams, and nature is uncontaminated.

The farmhouse, completely restructured, can accomodate up to 29 persons in 10 bedrooms, all furnished in “arte povera” style, and with independent bathroom. A wide lecture and conversation room can also be used for small meetings. The old barn, turned into a restaurant room, can accommodate up to 70 guests. There you can taste the specialities of the Marche and Umbria regions’ cuisine in a warm and comfortable room. The wine-cellar is provided with the best wines produced in the regional farms.

A swimming-pool with wide solarium is at the guests’ disposal, as well as the possibility of having relaxing walks and wandering in the woods and across the streams and the meadows, which are rich in wild fauna and the most varied plants.

For lovers of history and art the towns of Cagli, Urbino and Gubbio are also worth a visit.

The place where the estate is situated was appreciated since the Roman period. Near the farm, in the area corresponding to a secondary street once leading from the Marches to Umbria, some ruins of a Roman house (III century A.C. – V century B.C.) were found. One might easily suppose that the name of the place recalls the existence of a smith or a Roman station where it was possible to shoe horses; which were quite widespread at that time.

Today in the restored farmhouse you can enjoy the hospitality of the place, and in the old barn, turned into restaurant room you can taste the traditional cuisine of the Marche region.
