Emilia-Romagna Romance

Holiday Rental Description

With a fantastic hilltop location close to the small medieval hamlet of Monteleone, this striking, quirky home deftly blends old with new, tradition and modernity, offering a host of handy amenities within classically elegant surroundings. Feel transported in both space and time as you meander through the pretty spaces of the interior, finding a favourite corner in which to park yourself for the afternoon with that new novel you've been carrying around, an aromatic cup of coffee, or something a little stronger (there's even a sun-filled reading room, so no excuse not to make some headway with that book of yours).

Outside, apart from the fabulous views, you will find carefully maintained romantic gardens simply made for strolling around and slowing down to appreciate the little joys in life. Take a big breath in as you take in the vista, smelling the heady aromas of the garden's many plants. Then, why not dip into the waters of the pool for a quick afternoon dip before heading off to refresh for dinner?

Having worked up an appetite, test out the lovely traditional kitchen and try to replicate some of the delicious dishes you’ve come across on your travels around the region, loading the dining table with delicious cheese, cured meats, and pasta. Bellissima!
