Farm houses in Sardinia

In the selection of a vacation in Sardinia you must be able to find a good balance between characteristic factors, such as the cost of transport that is becoming more and more relevant in the overall cost of the vacation, and the type of accommodation and location of the accommodation. I want to talk about the selection of a farm house to spend your vacations in Sardinia. A solution that I believe can create a perfect mix between a typical and cheap vacation and comfort.
Taking cue from the indications given by "Coldiretti", we arrive at a definition of what may become a vacation on a farm house trying to get away from possible surprises, if not explicitly scams. To walk in the open air, taste the local cuisine, a total escape, to keep a pace of life with less haste and no need to do everything, to spend a holiday immersed in the local culture and not in the middle of the crowded location ... these are the main features of the vacation on a farm house in Sardinia.
Certainly, there are some things to add to the idea that people used to have about the farm houses: at present this type of structure is adequate to the demands of comfort and services of demanding clients. This is the reason why more and more rural houses have become real structures thought for the tourist and not according to the farm. Furnished rooms with all services, swimming pools, well-kept common services, among many others. And this is why there was the need to propose a classification for "wheat" (such as the "stars" of the hotel) according to the quality of farm house.
It is also important to say that the farm houses in Sardinia, on average, are always full during the summer season, and proposed themselves in the tourist segment summmer - sea, and in most cases one of the expected features from rural stutture is their proximity to the sea, in addition to a typical cuisine and the presence of a certain standard of quality.
Last but not least is the necessity to be very careful in the choice of accommodation for the vactions taking into account not only the price factor, very important of course, but also the reliability of the seller. The advice is to always carefully check on the internet or agency, as much as possible, that there is a reasonable correlation between communication and promotion of the farm house chosen for the vacations in Sardinia and the reality itself. In order to avoid awful surprises on the spot, a very interesting assessment are the reviews of customers who have already visited the structure.
In Sardinia the farmhouses are a reality present in all provinces, with a good percentage of facilities in rural and mountain areas. Most farm houses in this region have their own production and offer tourists not only a local cuisine but also other initiatives and situations that highlight even more the genuinity of the proposal. We are thinking about cooking courses, training on the natural color of fabrics through the essences of plants, the real inclusion in the workforce of tourists, in more specific option of working vacation. In general the choice of a farm house in Sardinia is a good option for vacations in the island, it is always limportant not to expect 5-star services or situations more specific to hotel accommodations.

Sardinia between Blues and Jazz

"Red Rock and Blues", "Time in Jazz", "The boundaries between Sardinia and Jazz", "Narcao Blues", "European jazz expò" to quote the most familiar names. Musical events like these have been going on for several years now, usually during the summer season. The jazz and the blues are the protagonists in Sardinia together with other groups that enliven the evenings of different reviews.

There are so many tourists (and Sardinian people as well) enthusiasts as well as curious, who move from one location of the island to another in order to attend these events. There are those who decide to take part in a single concert spending the day in the location. There are others who'd rather choose to spend more days in the location where concerts are held.

Many people who choose to spend their vacations in Sardinia, spend most of the day on the coast and or almost exclusively to relax by the sea and the beautiful beaches that Sardinia offers. Many others want to know the rest of the island, the hinterland, hidden and authentic. The other Sardinia. It is possible to find places very different among them, rich and suggestive for their unique natural and cultural features.

A real opportunity to know a beautiful area of the island, to taste the flavors, fragrances, colors and especially the sounds, Time in jazz, the festival of jazz music conceived and organized by the famous Sardinian trumpeter Paolo Fresu. It is surely one of the most renowned in Sardinia. The concerts are held in unusual and fascinating frames, in the mountains, near lakes, in front of rural churches, in small squares of towns or in locations such as the regional museum of wine. It is difficult not to be kidnapped and involved in the music. The atmosphere is unique and the simultaneous presence of natural sceneries, musical notes and people is magical.

The festival is held in the second week of August in Berchidda, historical region of Logudoro in the border with Gallura, central-northern Sardinia. The town, clinging on the slopes of Mount Limbara, is surrounded by woods and vineyards of giogantinu and vermentino, immersed in the mountains near the lake Coghinas. The area has a discrete quantity of accommodation facilities for those who want to stay close to places of Time in Jazz, of course, booking well in advance considering the amount of requests.

In Berchidda and in the neighboring towns such as Pattada, Monti and Oschiri there are some hotels, bed and breakfast and farm houses as well. A few kilometers away are located coastal renowned location as Budoni, San Teodoro, Olbia and the Costa Smeralda. These are locations with lots of facilities where it will be certainly easier to find a place to stay. San Teodoro, in particular, offers many real possibilities of accommodation to suit all tastes, residences, hotel, camping and a large quantity of houses for rent.

The capital of the Archipelago

La Maddalena is the biggest island of an archipelago consisting of seven main islands (La Maddalena, Caprera, Santo Stefano, Spargi, Budelli, Santa Maria and Razzoli) and other smaller islands, which develops off the coast of Gallura. The small city of La Maddalena developes in the south coast of the main island in front of Palau which is just 15 minutes by ferry.

Founded in 1770 in the area where there was a fishing village, this orderly and sunny city attracts every year a good number of visitors, representing one of the top travel destinations in Sardinia. The military base has lost much of its strategic importance considering that the U.S. support base located on the island of Santo Stefano, which has represented the main economic resource for at least a century, has been finally divested in January 2008. The tourist vocation of the area is being relaunched.

The charm of the sea permeates every corner and streets of La Maddalena. The old town is a fascinating combination of stairs and alleys and pleasant stroll amoung buildings and nineteenth century paved alleys. The village is spread around Piazza Garibaldi framed by caffes, locals and the City Hall. Near Via Vittorio Emanuele developes the fishing port and tourist resort of Cala Gavetta. Then along the waterfront, you reach the district of Moneta, a bustling fishing village. From here through the homonymous bridge that connects the island of Caprera, where it is worth visiting the home of Garibaldi.

The beaches, real pearl of the archipelago, and the island of La Maddalena in particular, are numerous. Driving along the scenic road that runs along the coast, for about 20 kilometers, you discover amazing landscapes that melt the blue sea to the Mediterranean green vegetation. From Cala d'Inferno to Cala Frances, the beach of Cardellino to the beach of Testa del Polpo and so on, you discover real corner of paradise: pink sand beaches lapped by a clear water sea all surrounded by sculptures of pink granite and Mediterranean vegetation.
