This villa, built in 1890 and carefully renovated while preserving its original details, welcomes guests into well-maintained and relaxing spaces where restored furniture and authentic atmospheres blend seamlessly with modern comforts.

The expansive and well-tended garden, akin to a park, surrounds the house and features a large swimming pool shielded by a long hedge of pomegranate trees, ensuring privacy and tranquility. All the rooms are quite spacious and come equipped with a private bathroom, high-speed Wi-Fi, a hairdryer, and various thoughtful touches designed for guests' comfort. Some accommodations are ideal for families, as they include bunk beds or sofa beds to accommodate more guests.

Alongside bread, cheeses, cured meats, jams, and artisanal spreads, guests can enjoy fruits, vegetables, yogurt, and juices, accompanied by organic hot beverages such as tea, coffee, cappuccino, and barley coffee. Special care is taken to cater to guests with food intolerances.

Jurgen and Anke, who are passionate about Italy and its way of life, have transformed this residence into their home and the welcoming place they envisioned. They are always ready to share recommendations and organize activities such as hiking or biking excursions to explore the landscape of the Vena del Gesso and the limestone cliffs that make this area unique.

Area Collina

The area surrounding La Melagrana is a captivating corner of the Romagna Apennines, where nature, history, and culture intertwine in a landscape that transforms with the seasons. San Cassiano, a small hamlet of Brisighella, provides an authentic and tranquil setting, perfect for those seeking direct contact with the natural environment. Dominating the skyline is the Vena del Gesso Regional Park, a unique protected area in Europe known for its karst formations and stunning limestone cliffs, which serve as a sanctuary for various animal and plant species. Here, paths wind through the landscape, inviting exploration on foot, by bike, or on horseback, amidst gypsum quarries, caves, woodlands, and vistas that extend to the sea on clear days.

Just ten kilometers away lies Brisighella, a medieval village recognized as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages in Italy." Strolling through its narrow streets transports visitors to a bygone era, featuring picturesque views, historic towers, and the distinctive Via degli Asini, lined with arches and ancient homes. Brisighella is also famed for its restaurants and culinary traditions, particularly its extra virgin olive oil and Sangiovese wine.

The location is ideal for exploring cities rich in art and culture: Faenza, known for its ceramics, is about a half-hour away, while Forlì and Ravenna boast museums, churches, and monuments that reflect centuries of history and artistry. Further south, in just over an hour, one can reach the seaside resorts of the Romagna Riviera, such as Rimini, Cervia, and Cesenatico. Additionally, thanks to a direct train connection from San Cassiano, it is possible to travel to Florence without needing a car.

This borderland between Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany offers a complete experience: unspoiled nature, charming villages, culinary delights, and easy access to cities filled with art and culture. It is a region that reveals itself gradually, at a pace suited for those seeking an authentic vacation.
