    Beautiful property with quirky interiors in a very convenient location to visit Parma. Our hosts provided us with lots of information about where to eat and where to park in Parma which was extremely useful. The breakfast was amazing…all home cooked and local and a great selection of food served in a lovely breakfast room. Our host packed up the breakfast we didn’t eat for us to take away for lunch. Wish we had stayed longer than one night.

    Just be aware that the property is on the outskirts of the city, just off the highway. Once inside the grounds you do feel as though you’re in the countryside, but you can still hear the nearby traffic.

    Francesco and his wife were wonderful hosts. Great communication and support before and during the stay. The property is very charming and the breakfast was to die for.

    The space is furnished with antiques, beautiful and authentic. Eclectic and lovingly gathered you can tell. It did however have a bit of an “antique store” odor… I didn’t want to use the wardrobe. Small price to pay for the authenticity of the B&B.

    Beautiful converted farm house/barn, private, secure, large suite.

    What a marvelous spot, tucked away and quiet, on a beautiful property. The home was well-decorated and quaint in the best way. We loved the decorations and charm of our room, enjoyed walking around the gated property, and our interactions with the hosts were very positive. The couple who owns the B&B went above and beyond with all the little details and the breakfast, in particular, was phenomenal, including homemade, lavender-infused panna cota. The B&B is slightly removed for the city center, so a car or taxi will likely be necessary, but it is absolutely worth it. You will wake up to the sweet smell of the garden and the birds, rather than city noises. We will return to the B&B Pomdere Merlo if we find ourselves in Parma again.
