This beautiful, spacious farm estate is set in a quiet location just three kilometers from the center of Brisighella, a lovely Medieval town in the heart of Emilia Romagna. Brisighella has shops, a supermarket, bakery, tourist office, restaurants, and – like the other small villages in the area (Modigliana, Tredozio, Casola Val Senio, etc.) – its own unique flavor. If you visit in the beginning of July, don’t miss the Medieval Festival!

Explore Faenza (15 km), known for its colorful pottery and elegant shops. Follow winding, panoramic roads to Florence, or catch a train from Brisighella and arrive less than two hours later. Bologna (66 km), the city of arcades, is a great destination for a hot or rainy day. Visit Ferrara (96 km), Urbino (121 km), San Marino (81 km), and the National Park of the Foreste Casentinesi Monte Falterona and Campigna (33 km). Facilities for golf, horseback riding, and tennis are available in the area.

A paved, winding, hilly road brings you to the property, a 130 hectares estate producing extra virgin olive oil, wine, and alfafa. The owner, an architect, is the descendant of one of the area’s most important families and lives in the center of town. The property is surrounded by a fenced garden of cypress and mulberry trees and olive groves. One side of the estate overlooks Brisighella, and the other overlooks the garden and the Lamone river valley. There is a bus stop just one kilometer from the property.

Podere Brisighella has been carefully restored and tastefully furnished. Two accommodations share the entrance to the property, as well as the covered parking area, which accommodates four cars, and the swimming pool (12 x 6 meters). Each has a private garden area, furnished with table and chairs for al fresco dining. Both have traditional cotto floors and beamed ceilings and are furnished with antiques belonging to the family. They are equipped with independent heating, high-speed ADSL Internet access, satellite TV, and stereo/CD player. The two accommodations can be rented separately, but because they are so close, we recommend renting the entire property for large groups of family or friends.

Padronale (150 sq. m.):
Sleeps 6 in 3 bedrooms/2 bathrooms
Originally, this part was the “Casa Padronale” – the house where the owner lived. Its façade is painted beige, and above the main door you can see the family emblem. Inside, an entrance hall leads to a spacious, bright living room with a fireplace and a large dining area with a table for twelve, so when both houses are rented together, it is possible for everyone to dine at one table. The living room opens onto the garden. The kitchen is new and well equipped, with a microwave and dishwasher. On the second floor are three bedrooms: a double with queen-sized bed, and two double with twin beds. There are two bathrooms, with showers made of Vietri tiles.

Contadino (135 sq. m.):
Sleeps 6 in 4 bedrooms/2 bathrooms
This was the “Casa del Contadino” – the house where the farmer used to live. Its stone façade is more rustic than Padronale, but the interior style is identical. The entrance leads to a living room with an arched ceiling and access to the garden. A separate dining room with a table for six has a fireplace and opens onto the garden. A large kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, and washing machine. On the second floor are four bedrooms: one double with queen-sized bed, another double with twin beds, and two singles. There are two bathrooms, with showers made of Vietri tiles.
