Casa dei Cuori is a stone residence nestled in the lush greenery of the hills surrounding Parma, where tranquility and authenticity blend to provide a rejuvenating stay. Perched at an elevation of 550 meters and away from traffic and urban areas, the property is located on the edge of the forest, making it an ideal spot for nature lovers seeking a break from the hectic pace of everyday life.
The spaces are spacious and inviting, designed to ensure comfort and privacy. The room features a private entrance and an en-suite bathroom, with options for a double bed or flexible arrangements with single beds, accommodating up to four guests. The interior includes a relaxation area with a sofa, table, writing desk, a piano available for guests, a working record player, and an extensive bookshelf, perfect for those who enjoy reading or simply wish to unwind in a warm and homely atmosphere.
Outside, the large garden opens up to a tranquil and verdant landscape, featuring a table with benches, a hammock strung between trees, and a view that invites contemplation. With a bit of patience, keen observers may spot wildlife such as deer, badgers, and birds of prey. Right outside the door, trails meander, perfect for hiking or biking, with the option to rent e-bikes by reservation.
The stay can be enhanced by a carefully prepared breakfast, served in the room at the preferred time between 7:00 and 10:00. The menu is customizable – sweet, savory, or mixed – and made with organic, local, and homemade ingredients, providing a genuine experience that reflects the philosophy of the establishment.
The location allows for a blend of peaceful moments and enjoyable excursions. Nearby, you’ll find taverns serving traditional cuisine, captivating castles like Torrechiara, picturesque sections of the Via Francigena, and just over half an hour away, the city of Parma, rich in artistic heritage, theaters, museums, and historic shops.
