Agriturismo Cupido

We had dinner at the Cupido farmhouse last night, and Fabio’s pizza was terrific. The dough has clearly been perfected over years of experience, and the homemade tomato sauce was fragrant. The mozzarella was full of flavor, and the ingredients are chosen with care. You can tell there’s passion and research behind the pizza, and a desire to make something different. Anyone who knows Fabio and Fabiana knows the care they put into their work. Well done!!!

Tomorrow we head home after three wonderful weeks, though Cupi and Cupido have come to feel like a second home. We’ve known Fabio, Fabiana, and Zita for about 27 years and have seen the Cupido farmhouse grow into the peaceful, lovely gem it is today, appreciated even by people who stop by for just a day. We love the views, the sunsets that keep changing, and the setting in the Uccellina Park, fairly close to the sea. The pizzas are incredible, especially the eggplant one, which you can’t even get in Rome. The Maremma dinner was outstanding from appetizer through dessert. Most of all, it’s the people: Fabio, Fabiana, Zita, Ihar, and this summer their wonderful Ukrainian daughter Cristina, along with their dog Pesca and cats Cacio and Pepe. They’re dear friends who welcome you so warmly you feel like family. Holidays are lovely for the rest, sunsets, sea, and nature, but especially for the company of your family and hosts, who treat you like a close relative.

A great pizzeria out in the Maremma countryside, with excellent local food and very kind owners.

This is our third year spending vacation here, and we always have a wonderful time. The Coccola apartment was spotless and had everything we needed for cooking. Fabio and Fabiana are always friendly, and their products are excellent, especially the pizza!!! It’s our favorite place for a great vacation.
