Nestled in the natural beauty of the Mincio Park, Agriturismo Dondino welcomes guests with genuine and familial hospitality, offering stunning views of the medieval village of Castellaro Lagusello, which can be reached on foot via scenic trails. For three generations, the family managing the establishment has tended to the farm and the surrounding area, characterized by vineyards, cereal fields, woodlands, and the presence of a distinctive peacock, a symbol of good fortune, that has resided here for over forty years alongside other farm animals.

The property, converted from an old rural building, features rooms and apartments furnished simply yet thoughtfully, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Each accommodation includes a private bathroom, air conditioning, LCD TV, complimentary Wi-Fi, independent entrance, and facilities for disabled guests. Visitors can unwind in the garden, take advantage of the barbecue and wood-fired oven, and start their day with a hearty breakfast featuring local products and homemade dishes sourced directly from the farm's crops.

The location is perfect for those who enjoy outdoor activities: strolls in nature, bicycle excursions (with free rentals), and play areas dedicated to children for moments of fun.

Nearby, the village of Cavriana retains the charm of an ancient fortified settlement, dominated by the fortress and enhanced by the park of Villa Mirra, home to the Archaeological Museum, and the Romanesque church of Pieve, adorned with frescoes from the 14th century and panoramic views extending to the Apennines. Guests can also partake in local traditional festivities, such as the San Biagio Fair and the Palio della Capra d’Oro.

The agriturismo serves as an excellent starting point for exploring Mantua, with its Renaissance palaces and the Gonzaga residences, Borghetto and Valeggio sul Mincio, the magnificent Sigurtà Park, Verona with its Arena and the enchanting story of Juliet and Romeo, as well as the Lake Garda area and many attractions nearby.
Rooms and Rates
Breakfast at Agriturismo Dondino is made with authentic products from the farm and the surrounding area. Each morning, guests are treated to a generous selection of homemade cakes, house-made jams, honey, fresh bread, and local cured meats and cheeses. There are also yogurts, cereals, seasonal fruits, and hot beverages such as coffee, cappuccino, and tea. During the milder months, it is possible to enjoy breakfast outdoors, surrounded by the tranquility of the garden and the scenic views of the morainic hills.

Area Collina

The area surrounding Agriturismo Dondino is located in the heart of the morainic hills, a natural landscape shaped by glaciers that features gentle elevations, vineyards, forests, and scenic views extending to Lake Garda and the surrounding mountains. This territory is traversed by the Mincio Park, a natural oasis that harbors rich biodiversity and offers numerous pedestrian and cycling paths, perfect for those who enjoy being in touch with nature.

The medieval village of Castellaro Lagusello, which can be easily reached on foot from the agriturismo, is one of the most charming gems of the region, known for its well-preserved walls, heart-shaped lake, and cobbled streets leading to picturesque sights. Cavriana, the village where the agriturismo is located, retains the character of an ancient fortified settlement dominated by a castle, and is home to the park of Villa Mirra, featuring the Archaeological Museum and the Romanesque church of Pieve, one of the most significant monuments in the high Mantovano, adorned with 14th-century frescoes and offering views that stretch to the Apennines.

Just a few kilometers separate the establishment from Borghetto and Valeggio sul Mincio, picturesque villages crossed by the river and connected by the historic Visconti Bridge. Here, visitors can stroll along the waterway, sample the famous tortellini from Valeggio, and explore the Sigurtà Garden Park, one of the most beautiful gardens in Europe.

For art and history enthusiasts, Mantova, a city of the Gonzaga family and a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a treasure trove of Renaissance masterpieces: the Ducal Palace, Palazzo Te, the Basilica of Sant’Andrea, and the dramatic squares that narrate centuries of culture and beauty. Verona, known for its Arena, the allure of Romeo and Juliet, and the charming streets of the historic center, is easily accessible by car.

Lake Garda, located a short distance away, presents a landscape that merges alpine and Mediterranean nature, featuring beaches, marinas, lakeside villages such as Sirmione and Desenzano, as well as renowned tourist destinations offering water sports, boat excursions, and tastings of local products. The surroundings are also home to amusement parks like Gardaland, Caneva, and Movie Studios, along with wellness centers and golf courses.

This region, rich in history, nature, and culinary traditions, is perfect for those seeking a vacation that combines relaxation, culture, and authentic experiences in one of the most captivating areas of northern Italy.
