Imagine lavender fields blooming purple in early summer, or the September air carrying the scent of freshly harvested grapes as Mount Catria rises in the background: welcome to Agriturismo Il Poggio delle Favole, an authentic retreat in the Marche region, just 3 km from Cagli, near the Frasassi caves, Urbino (UNESCO), Gola del Furlo, and medieval villages.



Spring and summer bring warm days for hiking and motorcycle touring on Mount Catria, picnics by the pond, and visits to nearby medieval villages and the Frasassi caves. September is harvest time. In October, the woods turn golden, and from October 25th to November 15th, you can enjoy the Truffle Festival. December brings prized black truffles and Christmas markets nearby, with a cozy fireplace after winter walks.



Book several nights to experience the area in any season: join the saffron harvest in autumn, take a new motorcycle trail each day, return for a truffle hunt, or relax among the lavender fields in summer and taste garden-fresh produce. A week here lets you truly discover the Marche.



Lavender is the soul of this place: it blooms every year, coloring the landscape purple, and from the harvest come floral water, essential oil, and fragrant sachets. The 19th-century farmhouse still has the family mangers. The farm is lively: Marrans hens, artisanal honey, hand-picked saffron, its own vineyard, olive trees, and seasonal vegetables, available for purchase on site.



The Olivia Room offers a king-size and a single bed, private bathroom with shower, heating, and independent entrance. Panoramic terrace overlooking Mount Catria. Pond with water lilies, car parking, and free Wi-Fi. We are rider friendly, with secure motorcycle parking.



How to reach us: from Via Flaminia (SS3) towards Cagli, follow signs for Frontone and local signs to the Agriturismo.
