Nestled in the serene hills of Parma, Agriturismo Il Salice is part of a quaint stone village located in the Isola district of Tizzano Val Parma. This village, which has documented origins dating back to 1820, was once divided between the main house and the servants' quarters, now serving as the agriturismo and the owners' residence, respectively. The complex also features a charming outbuilding converted from an old stone stable, which tells a tale of family returns and architectural renewals, culminating in the restoration of 2015, supported by European funds for rural development.

This family-run establishment is surrounded by unspoiled nature and overlooks the Parma stream. It offers cozy rooms and apartments, a panoramic swimming pool, and a restaurant available by reservation, where guests can enjoy dishes inspired by traditional cuisine, made with local and zero-kilometer ingredients. In the summer months, outdoor dining is available, allowing guests to admire the sunset over the hills.

At Agriturismo Il Salice, visitors can engage in authentic experiences with animals, such as the Bardigiana horses raised on-site, participate in traditional cooking classes, or relax with wellness treatments. Available activities also include mountain bike rentals, trekking excursions, archery, and routes to discover historic castles and picturesque villages in the surrounding area.

The establishment is managed by Giuseppe, an avid traveler and dedicated host, who, along with his mother—the cook and heart of the restaurant—welcomes guests with warmth and sincerity. The agriturismo is pet-friendly, accommodating dogs for a small additional fee.

Located less than an hour from Parma, the agriturismo serves as an ideal starting point for exploring Langhirano, the Pieve di Tizzano, the Torrechiara Castle, and the natural beauty of the Parco dei Cento Laghi. It is a peaceful oasis for rejuvenation, exploration of the local culinary culture, and a chance to feel connected to the history embodied in every stone of the village.

The two indoor dining rooms, housed in stone buildings, create an intimate and homely atmosphere, while during the summer months, guests can enjoy outdoor dining with views of the hills at sunset.

Hey, I'm Giuseppe

Giuseppe passionately runs Agriturismo Il Salice with his family, preserving the history of the village and enhancing local traditions. His mother, a true cornerstone of the kitchen, lovingly prepares dishes inspired by the Parmesan tradition, using authentic ingredients and family recipes. A lover of camper travel, Giuseppe has journeyed through countries such as Mauritania, Morocco, Norway, Portugal, and Turkey, always accompanied by his loyal dog, Mirtillo. This experience has taught him the importance of hospitality and the feeling of being at home no matter where you are, a principle he practices daily in the hospitality he offers to the guests of the agriturismo.

Area Collina

Agriturismo Il Salice is situated in a prime location, surrounded by the lush greenery of the Parma hills and overlooking the Parma stream, in an area that retains the authentic charm of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. Just 30 kilometers from Parma, a city known for its art and as a European gastronomic capital, the property is easily accessible yet removed from the hustle and bustle, making it perfect for those seeking tranquility and nature.

The region strikes a perfect balance between untouched landscapes, history, and culinary traditions. Nearby, visitors can explore the picturesque Torrechiara Castle, one of the most striking in the area, the Pieve di Tizzano, which dates back to the year 1000, and the Magnani Rocca Foundation, which houses significant art collections. Langhirano, renowned for its Parma ham, is just a short distance away, along with several dairy farms and ham producers that welcome visitors.

The natural environment is abundant with trails for hiking, mountain biking routes, and paths for horseback riding. The nearby Cento Laghi Park, with its ridges, glacial lakes, and ancient forests, provides an ideal backdrop for excursions and genuine interactions with nature. For the more adventurous, there are opportunities to discover the castles of the Duchy, such as Bardi, Fontanellato, Compiano, and Soragna, or venture to the Ligurian coast for a day trip to Versilia and the Cinque Terre.

This corner of Emilia-Romagna is perfect for slow, mindful tourism filled with inspiration, where every view tells a story and each experience leaves a lasting memory.
