About this property

B&B The house of plums ROOM 1

Ours is a typical manor house in the Reggio Emilia countryside. La Casa dei Prugni is a farm that uses the permaculture technique that does not require the use of any chemical fertilizer. All our products are absolutely natural.
A quiet place to live a little relaxation immersed in greenery and in the past.
During the stay you can use our living rooms all furnished with antique furniture from Emilia.

Ours is a late 16th-century country villa of the Mantuan type; a large central corridor, andito, divides the rooms of the living area with two doors overlooking the gardens to the north and south of the house. Until the end of the 18th century, the landowners left the city in these buildings to come to vacation with their family and to check all the phases of the harvest of the agricultural estate, which was then kept directly in the barn of the villa. Restored with the desire to keep the charm of historic houses unchanged, and furnished almost exclusively with antique furniture. The gardens, the orchard and our vegetable garden will give all guests the opportunity to spend hours of leisure reading, walking or resting, swinging under the large walnut trees. Even the animals of our guests, welcome, can relax together with the two dogs and the house cat. At guests' disposal the whole living area, the large central hallway, the hall, the study / library as well as the dining room.
From our house you can easily reach Parma, Reggio Emilia, Mantua, Sabbioneta, the abbey of Polirone. Around Boretto and Brescello it is possible to go trekking on the Po river and discover the flavors of these lands.
Just 20 minutes away is the new Reggio Emilia high-speed station from which to reach Florence in 1 hour, Milan in 34 minutes, Bologna in 20 and Rome in 2.20.
The A1 motorway exit 'Terre di Canossa' is a quarter of an hour away by car

Perfetto
Our stay at Alessandra and Raffaele’s B&B was perfect. It is a quiet getaway. We stayed for 2 nights. Great hosts and made us feel very welcome. The house itself is full of character. We enjoyed the splendid Balsamic tour of Fabio’s place and Raffaele acting as our translator. Raffale spent some good time chatting with us during our stay and we learnt so much of their family. Do visit Peace in Po another recommendation from Raffaele. It’s close by and a perfect way to unwind in the evening by the river. Their two dogs are so very playful and complemented the family very well. We enjoyed the night cap (the homemade walnut liquor)with Alessandra and Raffaele and Alexandra’s baked goodies in the morning for breakfast. Grazie Ragazzi

The owners are very kind, and also helpful with suggestions for planning day trips. Their home is a restored 400 year old farmhouse, and is nicely decorated with antiques representative of the era.

Pleasant stay during late November
We enjoyed a short but very pleasant stay. Location is good for visiting the area and the owners are very helpful and provided excellent restaurant recommendations. We enjoyed the nice breakfast including freshly baked morning cake. My kids very much enjoyed having the 2 dogs and a cat around too.

Rafael and Alessandra were both very helpful which made my stay a pleasure. They changed their schedules to accommodate my work schedule and for that I am appreciative.

Once in a life time opportunity I want to do again and again!
Alessandra and Raffaele welcomed my wife and me into their beautifully restored home --and the wonderful experiences soon began. During the days we were expertly directed to the best of Reggio Emilia sights and adventures. But the true value of this stay was to be had in front of the fire in the dining room; the family shared of themselves in a truly remarkable way, food was superb and conversation fun and stimulating -and in English for our benefit. Dogs were "active", which we loved; if that would be a problem I am sure you could asked for them to be put away during your stay. I didn't remember that breakfast would be provided in the posting that I responded to, however it was and it was excellent. Dinner may be requested, on our visit it was the best of seasonal garden offerings and a good value. Any future trip to Italia must include a stay at the "house of plums".

An incredible historic farmhouse in the heart of Reggio-Emilia, with amazing hospitality
Such a beautiful home! Built hundreds of years ago and recently restored by Rafael and Alessandra. So many wonderful antiques and a fascinating library of old books that Rafael showed me. And many of the floors and features of the house are original! This is a charming, peaceful, country home in the heart of Reggio-Emilia, with some amazing restaurants just minutes away. Also, the ancient town of Sabbionetta, which Raffael recommended is just a short drive. Rafael and Alessandra were incredible, greeting us with cappuccinos by a blazing fire after we drove through a terrible storm, some wine and local Parmesan with housemade mustarda and green tomato jam. They gave us an excellent restaurant recommendation for dinner. And the next morning we awoke to a homemade breakfast... chestnuts on an open fire, homemade Italian pancakes, scrambled eggs and fresh squeezed blood orange juice and fresh baked pastries. To say that Rafael and Alessandra are hospitable is an understatement. They go above and beyond. I only wish we could have stayed longer! You will not be disappointed if you stay at the House of Plums. A once in a life time experience.

A fabulous country/farm experience with an extraordinary family!
"House of Plums" graciously accommodated our traveling band of 5 women with spacious room accommodations and an authentic country experience. Raffaele had such patience... helping with directions, answering zillions of questions and even taking us to a weekend country market fair. His beautiful wife Alessandra made scrumptious breakfasts (Raffaele had "latte" duty) while 7 yr old Luca practiced his English. After breakfast we departed to nearby Parma for sightseeing but we always looked forward to returning to the warm hospitality found at "House of Plums".
