What is an Agriturismo?
- An agriturismo is a type of accommodation in Italy (most often in Tuscany, Umbria, and Sicily) where a working farm has converted some of the rooms in the farmhouses into guest rooms. To be a true agriturismo, the farm must earn more money from agricultural activities than room rentals and guests must be served items (olive oil, wine, fruit, vegetables) grown on the farm. The focus is often on local produce, regional dishes, and seasonal food in a rural and picturesque setting. Places that do not strictly fall into this category of lodging are usually called B&Bs or farmhouse rentals.
- Staying at an agriturismo farmhouse is one of the highlights of a trip to Umbria. If you have the time you should definitely make the effort.
- Booking.com – The best site for booking an agriturismo in Umbria. (Good rates and the best selection.)
- Accommodations range from simple rooms to luxury villas. Most include breakfast, many include dinner, and some also offer lunch (for a fee).
- Many agriturismo, but not all, have minimum stays (3 to 7 nights).
- Agriturismo vacations have become incredibly popular so plan on booking 4 to 6 months in advance. Even longer if booking a luxury agriturimso if visiting in May, June, July, August, or September.
- Renting a car is close to essential for getting to most agriturismo farms.
- Popular options: Agriturismo with a swimming pools are great for kids. Many agriturismo offer cooking classes (highly recommended). Some provide breakfast and dinner so a kitchen is convenient for preparing snacks and light lunch. Most of the apartments listed below come with fully equipped kitchen.

How is Titignano for families? Is the pool kid-friendly? We like to hike – are there good walks nearby or do you have to get in your car? Can you order from the restaurant? Is breakfast, lunch, and dinner included?
Titignano is one of the best agritourismo for families in Italy. I love the pool area (there were a few bees around the pool last time we were there but not much you can do about that). Walks around countryside and down to the lake are easily accessed from the property. Breakfast and dinner are included for free but there is not a menu to order from. Dinners are multi-course and huge. Shop for simple snacks, bread, cheese for lunch before arriving as there’s nothing nearby. Dinners are so big you actually want to keep lunches pretty small so you get to enjoy everything. We loved staying here.
