Su Oltrella

Casale Oltrella è la nostra futura casa, il nascondiglio segreto immerso nelle colline dell'Oltrepò Pavese, che invita ad assaporare piaceri semplici come il relax, il buon cibo e il contatto con la natura, e che ci renderà turisti permanenti alla continua riscoperta di questi luoghi poco conosciuti e ancora autentici.
