FEATURES OF THE AGRITURISMO AND ITS RESTORATION

The agriturismo was completely restored (2004) using environmentally sympathetic construction techniques which respected the architectural features of the old building. The beamed and tiled roof was built incorporating a natural ventilation system for greater summer comfort in the attic space, thus avoiding the unhealthy and ecologically unsustainable use of air conditioning. Particular attention was paid to the choice of materials: wood was used for the reconstruction of the structural elements of the ceilings, the architraves, and the porticos and it was treated using a completely natural wood stain and protector. All the floors are in reclaimed terra-cotta. The internal and external fixtures and fittings are made from hardwood. Cork panels were used in the roof and wall insulation while the internal and external plaster and painting are constituted from natural lime to guarantee the maximum benefit and health of the building.

The carefully planned electrical system, the solar panels both for heating the water and the underfloor and wall central heating, the proper disposal of refuse and the use of products that respect the environment, and the use of renewable energy from an energy company, all demonstrate the low environmental impact of the building and the farm. The project of the garden was done with special attention to using bushes and trees that need low water and saving water with a special cistern for rain and automatic irrigation. Since we are committed to the protection of the environment, we encourage the guests to ask for new towels only if required and to drink the special tap water coming from Sibillini National Park (one of the best water in Italy).

We set in 2010 a Roof Integrated Photovoltaic System for electricity production ( among the first ones in Le Marche) that ensures 13.900 Kw/year production and almost completely covers the energy need in agriturismo and the winery. In this manner, we avoid the emission of 9,1 tons/ year of CO2. We believe in renewable energy and a “green sustainable agriculture“.

For our commitment to environmental sustainability, we received the Quality Isnart Label, the Legambiente Turismo Ecolabel, and the acknowledgment of the Marche region.
