"I booked a farmhouse stay in Bova Marina. Are you happy? Let's go to your homeland!" This is how my husband began, about two months ago, alluding to my great love for Calabria.
As soon as we arrived, Domenico and Mimma's smiles and kindness disarmed us. They exude a kindness and genuineness that few possess. The Calabrians have cordiality and warmth in their blood, qualities that attract and touch even the hardest hearts, but that's not a given...
Returning from the beach and welcoming us with a ready joke and a wide-ranging smile, despite our tiredness and daily commitments, was like a caress on the heart.
We immediately connected, to the point that relaxing on the wicker sofas under a portico was so natural and pleasant, it gave us a sense of well-being and peace.
You realize that in this frenetic life, filled with superficial and cold relationships, rare moments like these days spent with Domenico and Mimma are a gift.
Authentic cuisine, freshly prepared dishes, accompanied by the professionalism and kindness of their children, Annalisa and Giambattista, provided the perfect backdrop.
Their specialty? There isn't one dish in particular, as they are all excellent, from appetizer to dessert...all organic and all cooked with love. We'll be back soon for the warmth and love we feel...

The food was delicious, especially the eggplant meatballs, the parmigiana, and the pasta, but everything was excellent, even the dessert was delicious!

We chose Agriturismo del Pozzo to spend our last evening in Calabria in a typical local atmosphere, and we didn't regret it. We were welcomed with warmth and kindness in a beautiful setting. We dined on the farmhouse's ancient portico, overlooking the surrounding countryside and hills. As often happens in these types of establishments, there was no need to order anything: as soon as we sat down, we received water and wine (red, perfect for the cool evening and the food), then came the appetizers (an excellent peperonata, stuffed peppers, eggplant meatballs, eggplant parmigiana, fried zucchini flowers, an excellent capocollo, pancetta, cheese, ricotta, and the typical lestopitte). After the appetizers, it was time for the first courses (two generous portions of homemade pasta, one with meat sauce and the other with peppers and sausage, both very fragrant) and the second courses (pork rolls and a mixed grill, with a side of baked potatoes and salad), and finally desserts and fruit (chocolate roll with cream and watermelon). Local liqueurs rounded out the evening, along with a pleasant chat with the owner and a very fair bill (35 euros per person). We will definitely be back.
