My family and I, plus a couple of friends and their child, have been at the “Podere la Branda” for the Easter weekend. Overall the place was nice, but the accommodations were below the expectations because of their cheap furniture and poor style. Here’s the experience in short: Atmosphere & Place 6 ½: At the Podere la Branda you can spend a weekend in the countryside and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The location is easy to reach from the motorway and well connected with the area's towns. Menu 6 ½: The Podere la Branda offers a good range of options. The fixed menu for Easter Sunday was acceptable, even if the dessert was completely frozen and not editable. The staff was amicable and quickly provided a second option. We highly appreciated it. In the evening, everything changed. It looked like another place! Maybe because we were the only guests at the restaurant, and we had a five-star experience. Food for the kids was yummy. The faraona was a dream and the plate of cold cuts and cheese was glorious. Unforgettable! Service 7 ½: As usual, interacting with the staff was the added value to our experience. All of them were very nice and highly professional. Especially the lady that served us on Sunday evening. You folks rock! Bill 5 ½: Overall, the price is expensive compared to other locations we explored in the area. The local wine we had was costly. As I said, the Podere la Branda doesn’t match the expectation of a well-curated place.

We had lunch at Podere La Branda today to celebrate my father-in-law's birthday, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The cuisine is top-quality, using local products, enhanced by carefully crafted and tastefully revisited dishes, without compromising on tradition. Generous portions and authentic flavors. The location is beautiful, surrounded by greenery, ideal for both a family lunch and special occasions. It was also a pleasant return for me: six years ago, I celebrated my son's baptism here, and we had a wonderful meal then too. It's nice to find a place that has stood the test of time for its quality, hospitality, and atmosphere. Highly recommended!

We stayed at Podere La Branda for Valentine's Day and it was a wonderful experience. It's a magnificent place, where you truly feel at home: a splendid location surrounded by greenery, with renovated rooms that retain an authentic rustic charm. Gioacchino and Antonella's hospitality was fantastic: they pampered us like true hosts, and their pastry-making class was truly engaging and informative. The cuisine is excellent: the chef is brilliant and offers dishes that recall the flavors of times gone by, but with an innovative twist that makes them special. We'll definitely be back, because it's the perfect place to unwind from the daily grind and indulge in a moment of relaxation.
