The Finnish Heritage Agency's description

Poroveden etelärannalla, Peltosalmen suulla, leviävät laajat viljelysaukeat, jotka kuuluvat Itikan ja Ahmosaaren suurtiloihin. Tiloilla on säilynyt melko yhtenäiset pihapiirit ja päärakennukset, jotka edustavat pääasiassa 1800-luvun rakentamista.

Talouskeskukset sijoittuvat loivasti kumpuilevan ranta-alueen ylänteille. Tilojen lehtevät pihapiirit vanhoine rakennuksineen muodostavat maisemassa selkeät kiintopisteet. Poroveden Nerkoonjärveen yhdistävän Peltosalmen molemmilla rannoilla on säilynyt edustavaa viljelysmaisemaa ja useita maatilojen rakennusryhmiä. Peltoniemeen johtava maantie muodostaa maisemallisen rajauksen salmeen laskeutuville pelloille. Peltosalmen 1956 rakennettu terässilta laajoine tukikaarineen nousee näyttävänä alavasta viljelysmaisemasta.

Itikka ja Ahmonsaari ovat Ulmalan kylän taloja. Itikan kartanomainen päärakennus, jossa on 1800-luvun puolivälin arkkitehtuurille tyypillinen poikkipääty, on rakennettu 1860-luvulla Collan-suvun omistaessa tilan. Tilan on omistanut myös Canth-suku, mistä syystä Minna Canthin nimi liitetään Itikan taloon. Ahmonsaari on entinen henkikirjurin virkatalo. Empire-vaikutteinen päärakennus on uusittu 1930-luvulla.

On the southern shore of Porovesi, at the mouth of Peltosalmi, extend broad cultivated fields belonging to the large farms of Itikka and Ahmosaari. The farms have retained fairly uniform farmyards and main buildings, representing mainly 19th-century construction.

The economic centres are located on the gently undulating slopes of the shoreline area. The leafy farmyards of the farms, with their old buildings, form clear landmarks in the landscape. On both shores of Peltosalmi, which connects Porovesi with Nerkoonjärvi, a representative cultivated landscape and several farm building groups have been preserved. The road leading to Peltoniemi forms a landscape boundary for the fields sloping down to the strait. The steel bridge of Peltosalmi, built in 1956 with its broad supporting arches, rises prominently from the low-lying cultivated landscape.

Itikka and Ahmonsaari are farms in the village of Ulmala. The manor-like main building of Itikka, which has a cross-gabled plan typical of mid-19th century architecture, was built in the 1860s while the Collan family owned the estate. The estate was also owned by the Canth family, which is why the name of Minna Canth is associated with the Itikka farm. Ahmonsaari is a former official farm of the henkikirjuri. Its main building, with Empire influences, was renovated in the 1930s.
