After struggling to rent a car in Italy with a debit card, and failing, Enrico was our only hope to get to the place. He came to the closest train station to pick us up, and made everything he could to solve our problems. Probably one of the nicest hosts I ever met so far. Montechiarugolo is a quiet and serene place, but with a couple of late-working restaurants in the walking distance. Almost not reachable by public transport (there's a bus, but it's impossible to figure out how it works; even locals don't really know). The house is impressive, with a fully equipped kitchen, high ceilings and a stunning view on the ancient castle. However, internet connection was lacking, the second, upper bedroom was really hot in July, and mosquitoes - God! those mosquitoes. Anyway, highly recommend if you're looking for a really authentic and serene breakaway in Italy, and (!) you have a car.

Tout a été parfait durant ces trois jours !

In un borgo antico, appartato, servito, ho trovato la pace e la serenità che mi aspettavo.

La casa di Enrico è in una posizione tranquilla, pur essendo nella piazza centrale del paese, vicina a ristoranti e servizi, proprio davanti al bel castello di Montechiarugolo. A pochi minuti d' auto dall'elegante città di Parma. Siamo stati accolti con cortesia e disponibilità per la nostra esigenza di parcheggio. L appartamento dotato di tutto il necessario, compreso la lavatrice. Li ringraziamo e torneremo il prossimo anno, sicuramente. Consigliato a tutti.

Prenotazione annullata da Enrico causa imprevisto ma che si è rivelato una persona corretta e scrupolosa

Enrico's flat is a nicely refurbished, modern village hause with minimal, but enough furnitures. Huge and well equiped kitchen. Enrico is a very friendly host. We plan to return somewhen.

Nous avons été très bien reçu par Vicenzo et Silvana. La maison est très agréable. Nous avons passé d'agréables moments et soirées en leur compagnie. Bonne continuation à tous les deux et gracie mille per tutti !! Nathalie, Mario & Loris

Everything was fine, Maximilian explained how to get to the house, he was very attentive. Around the house there is nothing really special, also not so many restaurants, make sure you have a car to get there. The apartment is big and spacious.

Amazing accommodation not far from Parma. Max was the perfect host, only too happy to help whenever we needed him. Even offered undercover parking for our canvas jeep in the rain and provided Espressos in the morning. The accommodation itself was beautiful, huge open plan kitchen, living space. Spacious bathroom and bedroom area. Extra homely touches made the space the perfect place to chill. Can't thank Max enough, only wish we could have stayed longer.

This was our second time at Max's apartment. It was so good at firat time, and even better at this visit. We really enjoying the place, the apartment is big, equipped, quiet and looks amazing. Max is a great host, and again we had good time together with him. We learn a lot from him about the area and Italy. We advise you to book it, you will thank us!

Huge house, nice people

My husband and I just had one of the most memorable stays at Max's place, near Parma. It was perfect for us and we can hardly wait for a return visit. First of all, the communication with Max was extremely pleasant and courteous. He was also prompt and professional. Max speaks several languages and his English is impeccable, such an asset for communicating with his vast English speaking clientele. Max place was extremely comfortable and spacious. It was spotless and everything shined. It is beautifully appointed with a multitude of unique details all around. Everything is pretty much provided. The kitchen is fully equipped. There are cabinets galore in both the kitchen and bedroom plus an abundance of other storage space and closets. The bed is extremely comfortable and the linen and towels are upscale. We drove and were able to park our car on the extensive property, right in front of the house, an extremely helpful advantage for us. Max was such an incredible host! He not only went the extra mile, he kept on going in more ways than one. We also had the pleasure of meeting Max's family members who were also most welcoming. We left Parma knowing we had made new friends, the very reason we choose Airbnb. I wholeheartedly recommend Max to one and all with absolutely no reservations. A finer, more attentive host you will not find.

Très bon accueil. Lieu paisible où on se sent bien. On avait prévu de rester une nuit. On est finalement resté 3... ;)

Max est un hôte très accueillant, chaleureux, serviable, poli, etc. Le studio est superbe, plus grand que ce à quoi nous nous attendions, nous avons été agréablement surpris. Les parents de Max sont également des personnes charmantes, et les chiens bien que timides, semblent adorables ! Je reconnais vivement cet Airbnb.

Max's place is amazing! Big, very comfortable, clean and modern. Photos don't do justice. You will have a great time if you stay at his place. The flat includes a big and modern kitchen with everything you could need and there's also a very comfortable lounge area. Max and his family were very friendly, making sure we were comfortable and having a good time. Max's dad even booked a restaurant for us and took us there! Also, Max's list with recommended places was great. We had a great time, don't hesistate to book your stay!!

A very nice villa, very private, in a quiet neighbourhood. We stayed here with a family of 6 and enjoyed every day of our stay. Very spacious, nice garden + swimming pool. Adelina, the host, was easy to reach whenever necessary.

Come sempre un posto unico e meraviglioso... torneremo presto

Great house with a lot of history and very genuine to the region,very clean , nice pool and garden , make sure to contact Andelina before getting there to get the right address...We enjoyed very much our staying.

This is a very charming house with grounds and gardens that reminded us of another era. We had four adults and two children vacationing and there was plenty of room indoors and out. It was too cold for swimming but we enjoyed the hot tub, the game room and the surrounding cities. The house was a quiet sanctuary after a day of sightseeing. We enthusiastically recommend Adelina and her home.

E' la terza volta che torniamo e peccato che il prossimo fine settimana sia occupata altrimenti saremmo tornati nuovamente, ma torneremo presto perché come sempre villino Teresa è incantevole, un posto magico, lontano dal caos cittadino, curato nei minimi dettagli e immerso in un parco secolare con piscina. Grazie come sempre Adelina. Ci vedremo presto! Ps. Abbiamo lasciato anche la macchina del caffè elettrica "a modo mio" con cialde lavazza per quando torneremo e per tutti gli altri ospiti!!!

Posto meraviglioso! Ideale per chi ama il relax, il verde e il benessere. Avvolti in un contesto di un parco privato curato nei minimi dettagli che circonda la residenza dotata di ogni comfort e arredata in modo ricercato in totale simbiosi con il clima campestre di alto livello. Tutto molto pulito e ordinato e massima disponibilità da parte della proprietaria. Ci ritorneremo presto!

Ottima accoglienza e disponibilità. Giardino e piscina assolutamente fantastici, una vera e propria oasi. Ottima la comunicazione e la precisione. Sicuramente un ottimo giudizio su questa villa.

Appartamento incredibilmente carino, pulito, funzionale.. Elisabetta ottima host.. consiglio a chiunque si trovi in zona di prenotare il suo alloggio!

La casa è pulita e accogliente. Tutto nuovo e funzionale. La padrona di casa è stata molto cordiale e disponibile! Location perfetta per visitare il territorio (compresi i Prosciuttifici e i caseifici dove si producono i favolosi prosciutti di Parma e il parmigiano reggiano). Insomma, tutto perfetto per una vacanza gourmet!

Nous avons dormi un soir chez Elisabetta et tout était parfait: l'accueil, la gentillesse d'Elisabetta, ses bons conseils, l'appartement spacieux, impeccablement propre, l'environnement calme, la proximité du centre de Monticelli pour les achats ou se restaurer. Vivement conseillé!

A beautiful place to stay in. Had everything we needed and the hosts were so accommodating

Nous avons passés un agréable séjour dans le logement d'Elisabetta. Tres bon accueil et des fruits/petit déjeuner et de l'eau étaient présents... superbe attention et appréciable après le voyage. Appartement au calme dans une résidence sécurisée. Proche de parme (environ 15 min) et des thermes (2min). Ideal pour un weekend.

Appartamento pulitissimo, ben organizzato e arredato finemente! Elisabetta è stata gentilissima e molto disponibile!

Thank you for your warm welcome and comfortable place to stay.

Riassumendo in poche parole. Elisabetta e famiglia sono davvero ospitalissimi,premurosissimi, disponibilissimi in tutti i sensi... L'alloggio è decisamente confortevole (salvo lo stendere in terrazza), tranquillo e vicino sia alle rinomate Terme di Monticelli che al Centro del paese. Noi abbiamo potuto godere comodamente delle cure termali ma anche di turismo affascinante nelle zone limitrofe oltrechè la disponibilità di tante piscine per tutti i gusti sempre in località limitrofe.

La nostra esperienza a casa di Emma è stata davvero appagante, ci siamo sentiti come se fossimo a casa nostra e la host ci ha accolti meravigliosamente e ci ha fatto trovare in cucina delle torte buonissime. Consigliatissimo!

L'appartamento è molto accogliente ed i proprietari sono persone estremamente gentili e disponibili. Consigliatissimo!

L'accoglienza è stata gradevole. Il quartiere era vicino a un bel parco.

Emma's home was nice and clean. She lives on the top floor with her husband and rents out the rooms on the main floor. She greeted us with immense joy and gave us a guided tour of the rooms we were allowed to use. The kitchen has a brand new fridge and stove which worked perfectly! The chocolate tarts she had left for us in the fridge were delicious! So, thank you, Emma for your hospitality and warmth!

La recensione piú lusinghiera che io possa scrivere non renderebbe comunque giustizia all'accoglienza ricevuta, lo premetto. Avevamo informato la signora Emma che l'indomani del soggiorno prenotato presso il suo incantevole appartamento ci saremmo sposati... Al nostro arrivo abbiamo trovato pupazzi di palloncini, messaggi di auguri sparsi per casa, bellissimi fiori, festose trombette e persino la torta al cioccolato!! La casa è grandissima, arredata con gusto, luminosa e completa di ogni comfort. Si aggiudica il premio "rapporto qualità/prezzo" migliore della mia esperienza air bnb. Simpatia e disponibilità fuori dal comune, sembra di essere a casa da mamma! Il check out solitamente è previsto per le 11-12 al massimo, ma ci è stato consentito di buon grado di trattenerci fino alle 17. Ah, la ciliegina sulla torta: la mattina del matrimonio, uscendo da casa, abbiamo trovato sulla porta un pacchetto rosa con un bel pensiero per noi e un messaggio di auguri a dir poco commovente. Saremmo voluti restare tutta la vita!!!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Emma. L'appartement est très confortable, très propre et très bien équipé. Emma est une hôtesse très gentille et accueillante, qui a été aux petits soins pour nous durant tout le séjour. Nous avons même eu droit à un excellent gâteau fait maison ! Tout est fait pour se sentir comme à la maison, et c'est réussi. L'appartement est un peu à l'écart du centre du village, la rue est très calme le soir. Il est idéalement situé pour aller visiter Parme, Modène et Bologne. Le village de Cavriago est tout près de Reggio Emilia, ce qui permet d'aller dîner en ville facilement. Il y a également un supermarché pas loin et un bon restaurant à proximité (recommandé par Emma). Une de nos meilleures expériences airbnb !

La nostra seconda volta in casa di Emma è stata come la prima. Accoglienti e amichevoli come sempre, ormai ci sentiamo come se fossimo a casa nostra. Ringraziamo nuovamente Emma per averci riaccolti.

Ospitalità, cultura, gentilezza e discrezione al top!

Super great host, you cannot ask for a more caring person :) Thanks for the stay gabriele !

C'est avec plaisir que nous avons découvert la Casa Erminia, située au rez-de-chaussée d'une jolie maison , nous avons pu profiter du jardin très bien entretenu de la vaste piscine idéalement orientée (soleil toute la journée) que les propriétaires entretiennent avec soin transats , plongeoir, soleil étaient au rdv. Jennifer et son mari ainsi que Nicolo sont très discrets mais attentifs à nos besoins, nous avons pu goûtés aux légumes bio du jardin qui nous ont régalés. Le logement est très propre et agréable, avec tous les éléments nécessaires et une large terrasse ombragée. L'emplacement de cette location nous a permis de profiter du calme de la campagne mais aussi de découvrir une région riche et variée, la route des Apennins (Alpaniino) nous a enchanté avec ses nombreux petits châteaux ( en fin de journée vers 17h prendre la route depuis Quattro Castella s’enfoncer dans la montagne et suivre les châteaux revenir par la SS513 vous aurez le droit a un superbe couché de soleil sur une magnifique région). La ville de Réggio Emilia est très agréable le soir ( ne pas louper le restaurant dressé à ciel ouvert au milieu de la place SanProspero) , les villes de Parme(+) , Modène (++) et Bologne (+++) permettent des escapades architecturales et culturelles. A ne pas manquer les deux musées Ferrari de Modéne et Maranello ( prendre billet groupés) Bref nous avons été enchanté de notre séjour.

Casa Erminia is a beautiful, well-appointed retreat in convenient distance to much of what Emilia-Romagna has to offer. Hosts were resaponsive before and during our visit, and available while there for information and advice.

Really nice appartment in a excellent location to discover the region (the castles, Parma, Modena, Bologna). Jenifer and Paolo were really friendly hosts. We could really recommend the place which has a great swimming pool that the kids loved! Hope we could come back!

Nous avons passé un séjour charmant a casa ermina. Le lieu et la région sont bien appropriés pour les jeunes enfants. Une belle façon de visiter l'Italie hors des sentiers battu. Visite d'une ferme laitière productrice de parmesan, chateaux typiques, la petite et tres charmante ville de modene... Récolte de tomates en plein champ... La bonne surprise a également été la "festa" organisé dans un village a proximité avec concert, bal, animations pour enfants... La cuisine est tres pratique et le jardin, la terrasse et la piscine offre un bel espace de vie. Merci jennifer e nicolò pour ce bel aménagement.

Very nice appartement with swimmingpool. We stayed at Casa Erminia for 2 nights and enjoyed it very much. Jennifer was so kind to fit in 2 extra beds for oud 2 children, which was great. We visited some beautiful castles in the area and went to Parma. I can recommend this place to everyone who wants to explore the area. Very helpfull and friendly hosts in a perfect appartement!

Nous avons découvert à Casa Erminia un logement très agréable, et très bien aménagé. Le lit était fait, des serviettes de toilette étaient à notre disposition ainsi qu'un minimum d'articles (sopalin, alu, filtres à café,etc...) qui facilitent bien les choses quand on arrive. Il y avait même un peu d'épicerie, et tout ce qu'il faut pour le petit déjeuner! On s'est sentis vraiment bien accueillis, d'autant plus que nos hôtes étaient charmants. Nous n'hésitons pas à recommander cette adresse! La situation du logement (au calme) permet de découvrir la région. Venus au départ pour la bourse aux oiseaux de Reggio, nous avons visité Reggio Emilia (le centre ville est très agréable), Parme, Modène, Bologne et Florence. Cette dernière vaut vraiment le détour, même si elle est un peu éloignée. Une première découverte d l'Italie qui nous a enchantés, et donné envie de revenir, à une meilleure saison!

We had a very pleasant stay. They have an amazing swimmingpool which was very welcome on the hot days. The airbnb was very clean and looked very nice. They even supplied some breakfast food for us. We would definitely reccomend this airbnb!

Per chi vuole pace e tranquillità è il posto ideale.

Accogliente, disponibile, pulito.. Cosa si aspetta di piu da un soggiorno.. Da consigliare!!

Wir konnten einen sehr erholsamen und trotzdem abwechslungsreichen Urlaub in dieser Unterkunft geniessen. Liegt die Unterkunft doch strategisch günstig einige wenige Fahrminuten von Reggio Emilia entfernt, und unwesentlich mehr von Parma und Modena. Auch für einen Ausflug in die Hügellandschaft der Emilia Romagna ist es eine ideale Basis (Quatro Castella und Canossa seien hier beispielhaft genannt). Die Unterkunft selbst liegt zwischen der Landstrasse die Parma und Reggio verbindet, und dem Ort Cavriago. D.h. es ist ein sehr ruhiges und eher ländlich geprägtes Umfeld (Bauernhöfe rundum), und für Einkäufe muss schon das Auto herhalten. Tilde hat sich vorbildlich bemüht, uns einen angenehmen Aufenthalt zu bereiten, und uns zum Frühstück mit diversen (oft lokalen) Köstlichkeiten versorgt. Die Kochmöglichkeit der Unterkunft befindet sich im Eingangsbereich des ehem. Bauernhauses in dem auch das von den Bewohnern (Tilde und den Eltern) aber wenig genutzte Wohnzimmer befindet. Zum Schlaf- und Badzimmer geht es dann über die Treppe in den ersten Stock. Beide Zimmer sind sehr großzügig und für uns als Familie mit einem Kleinkind von 22 Monaten ausreichend gewesen. Erwähnenswert wäre vielleicht hervorzuheben, dass auch eine hauseigene Katze auf dem Hof wohnt, und eine "fremde" Katze immer mal wieder zum Essen (ggf. durch das Küchenfenster) vorbeischaut. Die ganze Familie war immer sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich ohne dabei aufdringlich zu erscheinen. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, und werden diesen noch lange in Erinnerung behalten.

Ottima esperienza, Alessandro è stato molto gentile e disponibile ci siamo comodamente accordati via messaggi e tutto è andato per il meglio. La casa è tranquilla silenziosa e molto accogliente peccato ci sia stato poche ore per una sola notte.

Tutto benissimo!

The most charming home! Allesandro was the perfect host! A perfect setting, all the comforts of home and a wonderful breakfast! If you have the chance, choose to stay in this lovely home! You will not be disappointed! It would be the perfect place to write a novel! 10 stars!!!

Alessandro is goed te bereiken als je reisplanning anders loopt dan verwacht. Hij is zeer flexibel. Ontbijt vonden wij zeer mager/matig, wel erg lekkere koffie!

Il posto molto bello, Alessandro una persona squisita, immerso nella natura ma allo stesso tempo a un quarto d'ora dal centro. Lo consiglio alle famiglie e ai fidanzati che vogliono passare un momento in tranquillità ma allo stesso tempo ad un passo dal centro.

It is a huge house in the country side. Alessandro was here to welcome us and show us our room but did not stay and although there was another guest in the house that night, we did not get to meet him. The internet was working and breakfast was set in the kitchen for us. The room was clean and we had our own bathroom. Just a little note on the shower that was not very hot.

Una bellissima casa silenziosa immersa nella natura, le foto non rendono l'idea. Alessandro ci ha consigliato luoghi da visitare e ristoranti, e' stato molto disponibile.

Abbiamo passato (in cinque amici) la notte di Capodanno in questa piacevolissima casa/villa, sentendoci davvero a nostro agio. Saremmo dovuti andare in città per festeggiare, ma il relax ci ha irretiti! Così siamo rimasti in casa tutta la notte a chiacchierare, bere e mangiare. ^^ (La cucina/sala da pranzo è molto comoda e c'è un provvidenziale balconcino per i fumatori.) La casa è elegante, spaziosa e ben riscaldata e Alessandro è gentile e disponibile. Un ottimo soggiorno!
