ours is a country house of the past and is in a panoramic position overlooking the valleys that divide Bologna to Florence. And 'comfortable but not luxurious. there is an air family and we do everything to put at ease the away team as hoping to succeed !
I like to make desserts, jams and explain to my guests and customs of the area. I'm happy to accommodate and talk to my guests by offering tea and biscuits welcome.
We are an hour away from the cities of Modena and Bologna. You can visit the vinegar farm or cheese factory were product Parmigiano Reggiano. ideal for holidays in contact with nature and for those who love hiking there are 160 km. of trails. possibility of hiking paths also important on Lombard Street and the Gothic Line.
