About this property

Country house between Parma and Reggio Emilia w/Wifi and swimming pool

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.

Love this Property
We loved our stay at Quattro Castella! The property was exactly as described and so much more. It was peaceful and relaxing and perfect after a day of exploring the area. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed for preparing our meals. We loved the living room area and spent our evenings talking about our day and planning the next. We used the info provided by our host to plan our trips and meals. Such a perfect stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Stefano and Margherita were the kindest hosts. Check in was very easy and they showed us around the property. The house itself was very beautiful, and in the heat of August it stayed very cool. We were given wonderful recommendations to get our groceries and wines. The region itself was very beautiful. We would recommend all big cities around to visit. We spent our time mostly visiting vineyards, which were plenty of in the region. So, after our busy mornings with visiting vineyards, cities or having a hike, we could come back and relax and take a dive in their pool to refresh. We sincerely loved the place, and would definitely come back next time we travel to the region.

Alte Scheune in toller Lage
Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt mit netten, zuvorkommenden Gastgebern, einen großen Pool und einer wunderbaren ländlichen Umgebung. Wer gerne das italienische Dorfleben genießen möchte, beim Dorfbacker sein Brot kauft, in der Bar seinen Espresso trinkt und in kleinen Shops einkaufen geht, wird sich hier fernab vom Tourismus sehr wohl fühlen.

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 !

La Barchessa
Wonderfull house with a superbly equipped kitchen. We felt immediately at home. Landlord Stefano and Margherita are wonderfull hosts who helped and adviced us with additional information. Our gatherings remain for ever in our memory. Eventhough not everyone speaks English, the people here are very friendly and are pleased to help you. We discovered great cities to visit: Parma (2 times we went), Piacenza, Modena & Reggio Emilia. Worth a visit: the production of the one and only, real 'aceto de balsamico di Reggio Emilia'. Magnificent holiday.

Fantastisch
Wir waren zusammen mit unserem Hund 1 Woche in Quattro Castella. Die Unterkunft liegt super ruhig, ist sehr sauber und top ausgestattet. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Auch unser Hund Gatsby (Labrador) hat es genossen und war jederzeit willkommen. Die Gastgeber Margherita und Stefano sind wundervolle Menschen, wir hatten viel Spaß und schöne Abende. Abgesehen vom guten Lambrusco werden wir die beiden wohl am meisten vermissen. Wir wollen definitiv wieder kommen! Die kleine Emma wird unserem Hund auch sehr fehlen, auch er hofft auf ein baldiges Wiedersehen :)

Perfekte Gastfreundschaft in ruhiger Lage
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt im Ferienhaus sehr genossen und haben alles so vorgefunden, wie im Inserat beschrieben. Schon mit der Buchung erhielten wir eine Fülle von Informationen über Aktivitäten, Sehenswürdigkeiten und Restaurants. Eine gute Einstimmung auf die kommende Ferienzeit. Die ruhige Lage, der große Garten mit stets sauberem Pool, Liegemöglichkeiten und idyllischer Sitzgelegenheit garantieren beste Erholung. Zahlreiche Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Umgebung lassen Kunst und Kultur nicht zu kurz kommen. Margherita und Stefano sind überaus herzliche Gastgeber und stets um das Wohl ihrer Gäste besorgt. Wir bedanken uns von Herzen für die Gastfreundschaft!

Tutto in abbondanza
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt bei den sympathischen Vermietern und ihrer 'Barchessa', in der wir wohnen durften. Selten haben sind wir auf ein so gut ausgestattetes Ferienobjekt gestoßen, wie in dieser 'Einliegerwohnung' in einem großen Anwesen zwischen Weinstöcken und Natur. Die Wohnung ist großzügig ausgestattet mit allem, was einen Ferienaufenthalt erleichtert. Der 'originelle' Pool im Garten eignet sich gut zum Abkühlen in heißen Tagen, die Stille zum Erholen, die Natur zum Auftanken. Vielen Dank für die netten Gespräche und Begegnungen!

A quiet retreat in the middle of a Lambrusco vineyard
Easy to follow travel instructions helped us to find this tucked away barn in a vineyard with everything that you could possibly need. It was immaculately clean and well organised. The owners had provided a very helpful dossier of local excursions, restaurants and amenities. Stefano and Margherita were delightful hosts respectful of the privacly of the guests but with good English and very helpful when needed. Parma ,Reggio Emilia and Bologna (by train) were within easy reach and were full of art, arhchitecure and atmosphere. The difference for us was this was set up as a home and not just a holiday let. It was treat.

First-class holiday
It is impossible to over-praise our stay at La Barchessa. The accommodation itself in this bucolic oasis is perfect for a couple - beautifully appointed, packed full with useful information from Stefano and, something by no means a given with holiday lets, blessed with a well-equipped kitchen - even sharp knives! Outside is a wonderful secret garden in which we spent many hours sunbathing, and a lovely non-chlorinated pool to cool off in. Everything has been very carefully and considerately thought through by Stefano and Margherita - and it is those two individuals who elevate a wonderful stay at La Barchessa from the merely excellent to the extraordinary. They are delightful, witty, intelligent people, and it was an enormous privilege to have met and spent time with them. They also knew exactly how to strike the right balance between socialising with us and leaving us in privacy. Truly a holiday that will live long in the memory.

A great choice
Ideally located to access rail and road links to explore this beautiful region of Emelia Romagna. La Barchessa is an oasis to relax in, to enjoy the beautiful grounds, the rose gardens, so much wildlife - Bird song, red squirrels, cookoos, hares, hawks, deer, Willy the heron & his friend coming into feed at the fish pools, sunsets. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, leaving was a bit sad & saying good bye to both Stefano and Margherita who are such good hosts, very helpful and very kind.

Peaceful, warm and friendly
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the renovated barn in Quattro Castella. Our hosts, Stefano and Margherita were absolutely wonderful, giving great recommendations and even offering a welcome aperitif. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable and the surrounding vineyards provide a great secluded and peaceful feeling. Yet it is only a short distance to great restaurants and places of interest. We highly recommend this place.
