Description: The farm Il Castagnolo is in Paspardo (Brescia, Italy) and serves traditional cuisine every day by appointment, except on Tuesdays because we are closed!For our kitchen we choose local products and seasonal. In recent years we have recovered the ancient recipes that are made ​​with chestnut in the culture of Vallecamonica and we adapted by introducing new ingredients.Our restaurant is a cozy, homely and rustic, where you can organize lunches and dinners for all occasions: baptisms, communions, weddings and family gatherings, all the more special occasions.The chestnut grove in which we are immersed, makes the room cozy and relaxing, thanks to the silence that surrounds us, broken only by the incessant flow of the river valley. In autumn you can walk into the woods to gather chestnuts, but not only. Cross our plantations of raspberries in the summer months, or slide on the snow with the bob in the parking lot and, why not, to feed the miniature goats!Do not you convinced? well, you just have to come and visit us!

We were staying in Capo Di Ponte and made the scenic 3km walk to the restaurant surrounded by the beautiful Italian countryside and the imposing mountain ranges - we would recommend this walk.

In our haste, we arrived 2 hours prior to opening (they open at 7pm), however instead of being turned away we were offered wine and nibbles and a comfy place to read and do crosswords until dinner was served - this excellent level of service continued throughout the meal.

The food was excellent (as was the local wine) - we would recommend the crepes, gnocchi and the donkey stew - yes it does contain real donkeys and was delicious.

They also make a lovely local liqueur onsite, which I managed to procure a bottle of and sipped on the walk back home :-)

In summary: fantastic food, excellent service, scenic location - 5 stars.

Thank you for your hospitality.

Tom & Hannah.
