Summary

An agriturismo is a popular accommodation option in Italy that offers much more than a bed to rest your head. Beloved by Europeans who are much more familiar with the charm of these properties, once you learn all about what they offer you'll want to book one or two for your Italy trip too.

Sarah and Sal from La Cuccagna, a gorgeous agriturismo in the heart of Umbria, join us to share all the advantages of staying in an agriturismo and a peek inside what it is like to stay at their gorgeous property.
