I Baldi

From the Bakery to the Cellar

Passion came to us and we farmed the land, hunger came to us and we cooked good food, thirst came to us and we drank good wine.
The difference? We did it together.

Our places

The bakery, the coffee bar, the cellar, the gelato counter, the dining room and the guest rooms: a few glimpses of our places, steps from the ferry pier.

Azienda Agricola Le Cascine is founded: beekeeping, soft fruit, vegetables and fruit trees, plus an olive grove down in Cilento. Processed in our own workshop, they become gelato, jams and hive products.

Yes: sourdough bread comes out of the oven every day, and at La Dispenseria you will find artisan gelato, our honey and our own farm produce — it is the shop of our farm, Le Cascine, not a reseller.
