sustainable camping at Elilu

The residential accommodation at elilu è plein air: in tents on level ground or in camper vans (for families and summer centres), for a maximum of 12 people. There are two fixed pitches for campers with electricity and water connections and no sewage disposal. Guests will be able to use the attached facilities, which include 3 bathrooms, one of which is a handicap bathroom, and 3 showers. Elilu is situated on the farm's land, which can be visited (vegetable garden and orchard with more than 250 varieties of old fruit and vegetables, old Tortonese cows and calves, Piedmontese blond hens, black Garlasco pigs, the two quarter and Friesian mares, Saarloos wolfhounds, Bengal cats, the dairy, the stone mill, etc.). The "Mangià ad campagna" tourist farm is open all year round and uses almost exclusively farm produce: dairy products (milk, cheese, yoghurt, ice cream), flours (Verna, Senatore Cappelli, and ottofile and barbed maize), bread, focaccia and typical and traditional cakes, dry pasta made with Senatore Cappelli wheat, fresh pasta made with Verna wheat, blanche beer made with Verna wheat, wine (Croatina or Bonarda DOC), meat (from the Tortona area), cured meats (salami, coppe, pancetta, lardo, cota salami, Garlasco black pork sausages), dried fruit (walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, dried fruit), jams, fruit and vegetable compotes and preserves, pickled and sweet and sour vegetables, sauces, medicinal herbs. The products are also available seasonally in the small farm shop. Castelnuovo Scrivia è one of the most convenient gateways to the hills of Oltrepò Pavese and Tortonese: 20 minutes from the Milan exit and less than an hour from Genoa, Turin and Piacenza, it has splendid monuments of sacred and civil art, like many villages in the surrounding area (especially medieval and Romanesque-Gothic)..
