Quite near the capital of the State of Minas Gerais, close to the tiny but charming town of Florestal, is the great opportunity to lodge at a working farm, typical of Minas Gerais, with all the fantastic surprises and delights that these features suggest 

The simplicity of healthy country living gains cultural outlines as at Fazenda Boa Esperança. Local craftsmanship is the result of Suzanna Mattos de Paiva\'s and her daughters\' efforts in promoting courses and building teams of local people to produce hand-embroidered rugs, and even entire trousseaus. At Boa Esperança, the bucolic and traditional State of Minas Gerais is relived by the country sounds, flavors and smells of yore .
