Casa Tufo ex convent of Carmelitani Calzati

The farm "Il Tufo" is located in the center of a beautiful green amphitheater 350 meters above sea level in the Bologna hills, in Mongardino di Sasso Marconi, in the immediate vicinity of cities of high historical, monumental, folkloristic and food and wine value: 25 minutes from the center of Bologna, 40 minutes from the fair, one hour from Florence, 40 minutes from Modena, Ferrara, Ravenna and one and a half hours from Venice.
The residence, an ancient convent of the '200 of Carmati Carmati, Calzati, has recently been completely restored and transformed into a home, in the middle of a vast park owned by over 4 hectares, mainly wooded.
The villa consists of two apartments, one the smallest, located on the ground floor, currently inhabited by the owners and one on the main floor of 150 square meters, structured on two floors: below a living space and upstairs an "open space" of 60 mtq, recreational.
The living space includes a kitchen, two bedrooms, a large living area and a bathroom with tub, shower, bidet and toilet.
Connected to this by an internal staircase, on the upper floor, there is, in a large open space of about 60 square meters, an internet point with wi-fi, a large library, two living rooms with a working fireplace, a large "home theater" system. , card and board game table and gymnastic equipment.
Outside the villa there are large spaces equipped with tables and parasols for breakfast, meals and outdoor recreations in the summer.
The site is therefore particularly suitable for short stays, relaxing weekends, meetings-conventions but also for longer holidays in peace, silence and in the pristine air of the woods; all with the possibility of walking inside the park and in the surrounding hills but also of cultural and food and wine excursions in the city.

Historic Gem

Beautiful 13th century property expertly restored. Although the property has many personal touches the overall feel and quality are top grade. Carlo and his daughter Gioia both live on the property and were perfect hosts. The property is a little remote but close to several great restaurants (La Grotta and Al Mulino just to mention two) and not far from the town of Sasso Marconi which has anything you may need. The drive to Bologna Centro Storica is about 40 minutes. We had a great time exploring the grounds of the property which has many fruit trees and herb gardens.

Great location, beautiful house, feel its history.

Lovely location on the top of a hill with panoramic views all around. Lovely house, clearly cared for and loved. Despite delay in arriving all was ready and we were met and made welcome. There was information, maps, and everything we needed ready for us in the dining room. Beds, shower, kitchen, all fine! Lovely to sit outside in sun or shade and just lounge - enjoying the company, the quiet and the scenery. The loft, with its comfortable seating area was super. The house is at the end of a driveway, leading you up and away from the road to its roomy garden. Finding it was - even in the dark - not hard with a simple navigation aid. We enjoyed dinner just up the road, shops for food etc within ca. 5 km. Our hosts were inconspicuous but available for help (needed a bit of translation), pleasant to chat with, and interested. They had taken the trouble to have everything we needed for a snack after arriving and breakfast the next morning. This site, the house and Carlo, is a super find, if you want to get away, enjoy nature, or, as I did, have business in Bologna itself.
