About this property

A completely independent apartment of approximately sixty square meters consisting of a double bedroom (Queen size bed 160 x 200 cm), "en suite" bathroom, sitting room with dining corner and fully equipped kitchen. Supermarkets, groceries and shops within five minutes so as good restaurants and pizzeries. Patio equipped for outdoor living, barbeque, garden and swimming pool. The swimming pool is shared with the owners.
Located between the villages of Quattro Castella and Bibbiano, the apartment is part of a seventy-hectare property mostly cultivated with vineyards (Lambrusco) halfway between Parma and Reggio Emilia which are easily reachable in half an hour by car. Other destinations of historical and cultural interest easily reachable by car are: the 11th century ruins of the castle of the Vice Queen of Italy Matilde of Canossa, the castles of Colorno, Fontanellato, San Secondo Torrechiara and Sabbioneta (UNESCO world heritage site) and Modena, the vital center of the "motor valley" with also the Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani and Maserati museums. An excellent "base" for deepening your knowledge of a still quiet part of the Emilia Romagna region not frequented by mass tourism, known by most at the moment only for the offer of excellent DOC foods such as Parmigiano Reggiano, Parma Ham, Felino salami, balsamic vinegar, tortellini and for its renowned cuisine in the tranquility of the countryside.

Super séjour à la barchessa !

Des vacances en Emilie Romagne tres appréciées Notre appartement indépendant était extrêmement propre , un lit très confortable, une cuisine où il ne manquait absolument rien pour cuisiner une terrasse très agréable avec Barbecue, transats .. Nous avons aussi adoré la piscine dans le parc quand nous rentrions de nos balades . Stefano et Margherita sont vraiment des hôtes exceptionnels , nous avons passé quelques soirées avec eux dans la bonne humeur . Les renseignements qu’ils nous ont fournis sur les commerces , les restaurants , les bons produits à acheter , les visites … n’étaient pas forcement dans nos guides touristiques et pourtant nous n’avons jamais été déçus ! Merci Stefano et Margherita pour votre accueil chaleureux mais jamais intrusif !

About the host

Hosted by Margherita Peri

Stefano and Margherita are happily married since 1981 and have two now grown up children, Livio who is a journalist working in Modena and Maria Francesca a painting restorer with workshop in Parma.
Stefano whose father worked as a manager for Alitalia has lived in Kenya, South Africa, Egypt, England and for 15 years in Rome. He speaks fluently English and a good French He has a degree in Industrial design worked for Macy's buying office in Florence, a major italian houseware glass factory in Fidenza, and a packaging industry in Parma. He also designed, patented and commercialized a cleaning up manual tool for gardens, communities, or large surfaced areas. He now likes to take photographs. Margherita, who studied literature and philosophy loves reading.

Why they chose this property

The property belonged to Margherita's family since 1897 and she inherited this part of it from her father Severo in 1999.

What makes this property unique

Reasonably quiet (the house is surrounded by farm land and vineyard owned by Margherita's brother and there is work to do on it), stategigally positioned among cultural spots to be visited (Parma, Reggio Emilia, Sabbioneta, Mantova, Colorno, San Secondo), a good pool to refresh in after a hot summer day spent touring up the hills or down to the Po plain, good grocery shops and supermarkets near by to fill the fridge and freezer with for some calm out-door dinners with plenty of Italian specialities at home when not visiting one of the many good restaurants or pizzeries near by.
A fully furbished kitchen, a well furnished (or at least we think it is) apartment all for your self.
And the certainty that Stefano and Margherita, who live in the large farmhouse next door will always be available to help you, guide you during your holiday if you need.
