    We had a wonderful day at the farmhouse. Greg and Sylvia are delightful hosts. We enjoyed a wander around the beautiful grounds and had lots of laughs making pasta.We then enjoyed a great lunch with many small dishes to try along with wine and coffee. They were very knowledgeable about the area and we left with a great list of restaurants bars and cafes that they considered the best in Matera. Would highly reccomend!
