The Agritourism

Are there some general rules ?

Parking : we are all running away from towns so parking in front of the apartments is not a good idea.There are two little parking lots available,one near the horse barn , another after the main entrance .

Of course you are allowed to park your car near your apartment when loading or unloading your bags.

Animals : Watching at horses and pigs is very amazing but touching them can be dangerous so please don't enter the paddocks and don't touch them when they are in their stalls.Don't feed them because they could  unintentionally bite you , just because excited by the food

Bees : Bees don't usually attack people , they can be aggressive if someone is too close to their hives , so pay attention. Remember that a bee bite is harmless for most people but can be VERY dangerous for those who are allergic.
