The ambiance of dining in a rustic room by the fireplace or in the garden with panoramic views further enhances the dining experience. Multiple reviews commend the friendly and welcoming staff, contributing to a homely and comfortable dining atmosphere. Most guests found the food not only flavorful but also well-prepared with standout mentions of the ravioli, grilled meat and locally sourced ingredients.
While there were a few mentions of the food being pricier than expected, the majority of reviews reflect a strong appreciation for the quality and taste of the meals, deeming them excellent and definitely worth trying.

The decor is a highlight with rooms furnished in an antique style, evoking the charm of an old farmhouse. This includes lovely surprises such as original features that make guests feel like they are stepping back in time, complemented by modern upgrades in some areas like newly renovated bathrooms. Rooms often include additional spaces like a small living room, adding to the comfort and sense of home.
While most feedback about cleanliness is overwhelmingly positive, a few guests noted issues such as musty smells and the need for some improved furnishings. Moreover, some found the beds a bit creaky and the linens well-worn.
In summary, the accommodations at Agriturismo CasaMatta Azienda Agricola are spacious and welcoming, blending rustic charm with essential modern comforts, set in a beautiful, picturesque location that enhances the overall experience.
Beds
However, a number of reviews pointed out areas needing improvement. Some guests felt the mattresses were too soft or quite hard with individual springs being felt after some time. There were mentions of beds being old, creaky and slightly dusty. Additionally, the linen appeared heavily used and mismatched and the sofa bed was criticized for being particularly uncomfortable. Despite these issues, many guests felt that for the price, the sleeping arrangements were acceptable.
Cleanliness
However, the cleanliness of the accommodations appears to be a recurring issue. While some guests noted their rooms were very clean and well-maintained, others reported significant lapses in hygiene. Common concerns included dirty towels and bedding, noticeable hairs and stains on the beds and an overall lack of thorough cleaning in the bathrooms. External areas and communal spaces, such as the dining area, equally required more attention to cleanliness.
Despite this inconsistency, the clean and large bathrooms in certain rooms provide a stark contrast, suggesting potential variability in upkeep standards. Renovations and maintenance could elevate the overall experience significantly, as the structure holds substantial potential marred by minor yet critical shortcomings.
This balance of quaint rural charm and the dedication of the hosts provides a foundation for a delightful stay, though attention to cleanliness could truly polish the experience.
Staff
Many visitors appreciated the hosts' genuine hospitality, noting their super friendly and kind demeanor. The presence of farm animals like dogs and cats also adds to the charm and friendliness of the environment. Despite occasional language barriers, the staff's enthusiasm and approachability more than make up for any communication challenges.
The owners are particularly noted for their hands-on management and high-energy approach to running the place. Specific mentions of individuals like Alessio and Giovanni point to memorable personal interactions that enhance the stay. The staff's young and vivacious spirit, combined with a bio-hippie vibe, further adds to the unique charm of the agriturismo.
Overall, the combination of friendly hosts, attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere makes Agriturismo CasaMatta a standout destination for those seeking relaxation and excellent hospitality in a picturesque setting.
