Agriturismo La Rocchetta

La Rocchetta farm is located 10km from Ferrara Center in a village called San Egidio.

The La Rochetta farm has an old tradition and is currently adopting organic cultivation methods.
Life on the farm is simple and relaxing, our staff are welcoming and helpful. The farm is surrounded by nature and there are lots of animals, flowers and herbs. There is a fishing lake, bicycle paths and boat trips along the Po di Primaro that have guided tours around Ferrara.
The farm kitchen offers local, ferrarese food, prepared according to the traditional recipes, together with good wine and the typical ferrarese bread. All these ingredients help to make your visit or stay an unforgettable experience.
Our passion for what we do is reflected in our work, our traditions, our simplicity, and our kitchens and, why not, evens our fog!
