About us

A family-run farmhouse,
in the heart of Sulcis

At Su Bistentu time slows down. Our farm works the land and raises the animals that reach the restaurant table, fresh and genuine. Here guests and friends sit together, just as they did in the old days.

A large, welcoming hall for lunches, dinners, banquets and celebrations, where you can enjoy traditional Sardinian dishes made with our own produce.

  • Spacious hall for groups, ceremonies and events
  • Ingredients from our own farm
  • Genuine, family hospitality

  • Aperitifs and dinners by the pool
  • Unforgettable sunsets over the Sardinian countryside
