In the heart of the Romagna countryside, halfway between the sea and the hills, stands Al Gufo Saggio, a unique bed and breakfast entirely made of straw and wood. This project was inspired by the dream of Laura and Stefano, who chose to live and share an authentic and sustainable hospitality experience in an environment where respect for nature is reflected in every detail.

Straw, an eco-friendly and locally sourced material from the adjacent field, provides excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, ensuring cool spaces in the summer and warmth in the winter. Due to its compact composition and the use of lime and earth plaster, the house is durable, safe from seismic risks, and allows for natural breathability. The interior finishes, made from natural and recycled materials, create a welcoming, harmonious, and healthy atmosphere.

The two spacious and bright rooms are designed for maximum comfort and relaxation. The "Campagna" room features earthen plasters and warm tones that evoke the surrounding nature, with a large window offering views of the fields and the beauty of dawn. The "Mare" room, on the other hand, reflects a marine vibe, with details reminiscent of boat wood and decorations made from materials collected on the beach. Both rooms have private bathrooms and dedicated outdoor spaces.

In the morning, breakfast becomes a delightful ritual thanks to Laura's passion for cooking. Guests are treated to sourdough bread and focaccia, homemade jams, an array of freshly baked pastries and cookies, yogurt, fresh juices, and savory options, all prepared with local and seasonal ingredients. Everything is presented with care and creativity in a warm and relaxing atmosphere.

The location is perfect for those who wish to explore the beauty of Romagna while enjoying the tranquility of the countryside. Within a short distance are Ravenna, known for its UNESCO World Heritage mosaics, the Mirabilandia amusement park, Cesena with its rich history, the beaches of Cervia and Cesenatico, as well as routes through hills, quaint villages, festivals, and culinary trails.

Al Gufo Saggio is a peaceful retreat, an experience that leaves a lasting impression. Here, every guest is welcomed with warmth and attention in a lively home, built with love and designed to rejuvenate both body and spirit.
Rooms and Rates
Breakfast at Al Gufo Saggio is a special occasion designed to start the day with flavor and tranquility. Every morning, Laura prepares a generous buffet featuring fresh, local, and seasonal products, carefully selecting authentic ingredients.

Homemade bread, focaccia, and cakes made with sourdough, along with house-made jams, artisanal cookies, and a variety of new sweets inspired by the creativity of the hostess, are accompanied by yogurt, fresh fruit juices, and savory options. The owl, a symbol of the B&B, makes occasional appearances as a creative touch throughout the dishes, making breakfast even more unique.

It's a delightful and homely experience to savor at a leisurely pace, surrounded by the peacefulness of the countryside.

Hey, I'm Laura

Laura and Stefano are the heart and soul of the B&B Al Gufo Saggio. After eleven years of marriage and a previous life in the province of Bergamo, they decided to move to the Romagna countryside to realize a dream: to build a straw house and turn it into a place of genuine hospitality. Laura, a primary school teacher, has a passion for cooking and each morning prepares delicious and creative breakfasts, featuring desserts inspired by nature and often by the owl that names their home. She is kind, cheerful, and always ready to make every guest feel at ease. Stefano, a social worker, enjoys walking in nature, tending to the garden, and ensuring that every corner of the B&B is harmonious and rejuvenating. Together, they share deep values related to sustainability, respect for the environment, and a simple, mindful lifestyle. Those who choose to stay with them find much more than just accommodation: they enter into a warm, authentic life project crafted with love.

Area Campagna

The B&B Al Gufo Saggio is located in San Zaccaria, at the heart of the Romagna countryside, in a strategic location that combines peace and convenience. Surrounded by golden fields, majestic pines, and skies that turn pink at dawn and golden at sunset, this place is perfect for those looking to rejuvenate in nature while still having the opportunity to explore the area.

Just a few kilometers away is Ravenna, a city rich in art and culture known for its famous UNESCO World Heritage mosaics. In the opposite direction lies the coastline with the beaches of Cervia and Cesenatico, ideal for those seeking the sea, pine forests, and the relaxed lifestyle of the Riviera. Also nearby is Mirabilandia, one of Italy's most beloved amusement parks, making it a perfect destination for families and groups of friends.

History and architecture enthusiasts can visit Cesena, with its fortress, medieval old town, and the Malatestiana Library. Heading inland, visitors can embark on gastronomic itineraries through the hills of Forlì-Cesena, exploring charming villages, local festivals, wineries, and lush green trails.

The location of Al Gufo Saggio thus allows for a dynamic or contemplative holiday, balancing beach and hill, culture and nature, without ever losing the privilege of retreating each evening to a quiet and welcoming place, where one can breathe in authentic scents and gaze at the starry sky in complete tranquility.
