We had a wonderful stay. Franco was very helpful and spoke good English. Our apartment was clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed. The pool was lovely. We enjoyed going for walks in the countryside in the evenings. We stayed here 3 yrs ago and enjoyed ourselves so came back again this year

5 day stay family of four

We're an active family of 4 from Australia. This area is fantastic if you like trail walks, history, wine, relaxation and good views. We found an amazing place to eat and drink and enjoy amazing views while exploring a local wine trail. Got a bit lost but found our way eventualy with google maps. Visitbthe castle for a small fee, very interesting. The villa is beautiful with good cooking facilities. The beds were big enough and comfortable, and the pool area was lovely. The goats were friendly enough too. Franco, the owner, was absolutely lovely and very helpful. Thanks for a lovely, relaxing stay.

Beautiful home in the country

We enjoyed our stay at Villa Calanco. Our apartment was very comfortable and clean, we had everything we needed. Franco was lovely, we enjoyed the bottle of wine left for us. Thank you. The garden was lovely, we had our own outside area, very private. The swimming pool was lovely. Very informative booklet in our apartment with all the information we needed to know. Peaceful and quiet location but handy to everything. Lovely views.

Country charm.

My wife and I, along with my wife's sister, stayed at Villa Calanco Country House for three nights in May 2017. We rented two apartments, Quintino and Anna. Both apartments were lovely. They were immaculate, comfortable and very well appointed. The owner, Franco, was an attentive and charming host who made us feel very welcome and at home. This beautiful accommodation is located in the quiet country side of Dozza and provided an excellent base in which to explore the country side, the Medieval small village of Dozza and day trips to Bologna and Ravenna. Although there are lovely restaurants within a short distance from Villa Calanco, , we spent two of our three evenings eating al fresco in the beautiful gardens of this lovely accommodations.

Peaceful country retreat in great location

My husband and I have just returned from a wonderful holiday in Italy. We stayed in a stylish apartment in the elegant 18th century Villa Calanco. The property is set in a large garden in the countryside, with nice views of the surrounding farmland. I enjoyed swimming in the well-maintained pool and relaxing beside it. The kitchen was well equipped, and we liked to have a barbeque in the evening. However, the steps up to the apartment make it a challenge to remember everything to minimise the journeys up and down. Eating tomatoes and courgettes fresh from the garden was delightful. The property is only a few minutes drive from Dozza, a pretty little town, and is conveniently situated for visiting other towns, such as Imola, Bologna, Modena , Ferrara and Ravenna, as well as the mountains. Franco was an attentive and helpful host and made our stay a happy one.

En mycket härlig plats att vara på. Lägenheten hade allt man behöver, ren och rustik som man önskar i Italien. Kändes tillräckligt stor för 4 personer. Franco var hela tiden tillgänglig för frågor. Poolområdet var trevligt och fint. Det var även nödvändigt då det var upp till 39 grader varmt. Man behöver bil för att ta sig runt och då är detta ett utmärkt boende och utgångspunkt för utflykter.

Sehr rustikale Unterkunft in weitläufigem Garten und schönen Pool

Klimaanlage defekt, wurde auf Nachfassen repariert. Reichlich Platz im 2 Zi Schlafzimmer Appartment. Hohe Lautstärke durch Zikaden; viele Insekten die das Draussensitzen unangenehm machten.

Thanks for the review that helps us improve. I am sorry that upon your arrival the air conditioning system was not working effectively at maximum (not broken), but it was then promptly repaired. For cicadas it seems normal to me that in the countryside and in the hot summer period they do their job even if they can cause annoyance. Outside in this period it is also possible the presence of mosquitoes and other insects, but in any case we prefer not to use toxic chemicals and with a good protective it is possible to solve.

wunderschöne Woche

der Aufenthalt mit meinen Töchtern wird mir unvergesslich bleiben. Signore Franco war extrem hilfsbereit und sehr freundlich. Das Apartment ist sauber und gemütlich. Auf Grund des schönen Wetters konnten wir den Essplatz unter den wunderschönen Bäumen vom Frühstück bis zum Abendessen nützen. Von Dozza aus kann man alle Sehenswürdigkeiten der Umgebung gut und schnell erreidhen. Auch meine Töchteer haben diese Tage genossen. Wir können dieses Objekt wärmstens empfehlen.

Eine Oase der Ruhe und Erholung - wunderbar

Mit zwei kleinen Kindern hatten wir einen wunderbaren, erholsamen und ruhigen Urlaub in der Villa Calanco. Das Appartement ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail historisch eingerichtet und lässt trotzdem keine Wünsche hinsichtlich des Komforts offen. Man merkt, mit wie viel Liebe und Einsatz Familie Giaconia das Anwesen betreibt und pflegt. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt, eine kurze Nachfrage reichte aus und schon gab es abends sogar Licht zum gemeinsamen Fußballspiel. Die Lage ist ideal um die Emilia-Romagna zu erkunden, der große und gepflegte Garten bietet auch bei großer Hitze genug Raum zur Abkühlung bei gleichzeitiger Privatsphäre. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder. Grazie, Franco, per la grande ospitalità!

Un séjour exceptionnel

Nous avons passé d’excellentes vacances pendant 18 jours dans cette propriété. La location correspond exactement à ce qui est indiqué. L’ hôte est génial et toujours disponible lorsqu’il y a besoin. Gianfranco a été un hôte remarquable, y compris lorsque nous recherchions un médecin. Possibilité d’avoir des tomates délicieuses du jardin et des œufs frais. La piscine est grande et très agréable. La propriété est idéalement placée pour visiter la région ( Dozza, Bologne, Parme, Brisighella, Ravenne, la côte adriatique, San Marin, Imola, et évidemment la motor valley avec Ferrari et Lamborghini). Merci pour ce super séjour.

Idylisk, charmerende, smukt, afslappende, venligt - Et besøg værd.

Vi (familie på 4) havde en dejlig uge hos Franco og hans familie. Vi boede i App. Anna der er indrettet i original stil - smukt ! Der er desværre ikke en altan til lejligheden - det ville have været fantastisk. Der er A/C på værelset hvis det bliver for varmt om natten. Poolen blev flittigt benyttet af både børn og voksne. Den er ret ny og bliver gjort ren hver morgen. Der blev under opholdet stillet grøntsager frem fra haven som frit kunne benyttes - god stil. Ejeren er meget venlig og nem at komme i kontakt med. Den gamle by Dozza indeholder nogle fantastisk gode restauranter som absolut er et besøg værd. Vi kunne fint komme tilbage til dette sted.

Schöne Ferienwohnungen in parkähnlicher Umgebung

Wir haben unseren kurzen Aufenthalt im Haus von Franco und seiner Familie sehr genossen. Die Wohnungen sind in jeglicher Hinsicht gut ausgestattet und Franco war immer, wenn wir ihn brauchten zur Stelle und half uns weiter. Einen Verbesserungsvorschlag habe ich dennoch: Manchmal kann es offensichtlich auch im Oktober schon witterungsbedingt kühl sein, sodass in dem historischen und wenig isolierten Gemäuer speziell am Morgen unangenehm sein kann. Nur aus diesem Grund habe ich mich entschlossen, nur vier statt der eigentlich verdienten fünf Sterne zu vergeben. Beste Grüße von uns allen, Franco.
