Love for things always bears excellent fruit. A moving experience. Exceptional service, food, and rooms with a different four-course menu every evening. Authentic atmosphere and every comfort. The staff was fantastic and provided us with lots of helpful advice and interesting information about the house's history. Valentina made us feel at home with an extraordinary welcome. An enchanting place where time stands still. At night, the magic descends. We stayed two more days and it was fantastic! We will return, we will experience it again and again. Highly recommended.

Magnificent, impeccably restored property filled with antiques. A dreamy atmosphere during dinner, outside at sunset. Excellent traditional dishes. A hearty breakfast with many fresh, high-quality local products. An unforgettable experience. The owners gave us a warm welcome and took us on a true journey back in time. Their dedication and love for what they do is evident in every corner of the house. Exceptional location. The bike ride through the surrounding countryside was also beautiful. It's already a place close to our hearts. Thank you, we'll definitely be back on our next trip to Italy.

The location was perfect for our trip; everything was taken care of down to the smallest detail. Breakfast was truly abundant, with a wide selection of sweet and savory dishes, all freshly prepared. Dinner was top-notch, served on a splendid terrace. Our suite had a very relaxing and romantic private patio. The cleanliness was impeccable. Parking on the estate was truly convenient and safe. I thank the staff for their thoughtfulness during our stay; we'll be back soon ♥️!!

Despite being a place steeped in history and having the privilege of sleeping in antique beds, the staff is very warm and friendly. This makes it feel familiar and authentic, yet very professional. I also loved the outdoor breakfast and the excellent dinner. I highly recommend it.

You are surrounded by beauty and history. It’s not easy to find places where the owners let you use such authentic and antiques furniture also in the room. I loved also the breakfast, we made it outside in the garden.

The heart has its own geography. There are places that recognize you even before you choose them... A summer evening. The wind in the vineyards. The gold of the countryside. And a place we didn't know: Casaforte la Bastide, a fantastic boutique hotel in Ferrara welcomed us like this: with art among cypresses, silence as a companion and the freedom for Penny to feel part of the landscape too... A charming residence where simplicity becomes art, every detail is chosen with love and the olive trees perfume the silence... We walked among the sculptures, listened to the silence, I saw my coke-eater Penny fall asleep in the sun, as well as among the cushions... We spoke with people who know how to welcome with elegance and discretion. In this place everything speaks of harmony: the welcome that has the grace of those who truly love what they offer, the landscape that watches the sunset during dinner with very fresh and truly delicious local products, the nature that grows without borders... A charming refuge for those seeking grace, silence and beauty without ostentation. Maximum care and cleanliness everywhere and a spectacular location. A place that remains in the heart to return again and again.

A place that enters your heart. The structure, beautiful and perfectly restored where even the meticulous details make the difference. The staff is extraordinary and knows how to be present and recommend everything. The breakfast is superb as is the romantic candlelit dinner. Impeccable cleanliness, silence, relaxation, pampering. A dream. We also had a picnic in the olive grove and it seemed like we were in paradise!! Honestly, in all aspects it is the best place we have ever been. Absolutely to return for a long stay.

Nothing! This place was truly "perfect."

Very charming property in an old, historical building that has been beautifully and tastefully renovated. The entire staff were very kind and welcoming, and everything from the check-in to checkout process was very simple. The breakfast was wonderful too!

A first strong point is the service. Extraordinary! The staff is simply magical, thoughtful and attentive. The location is wonderful, a sight for sore eyes, everything is designed and maintained with care. The room is cared for in every detail, really very comfortable. The best breakfast we have ever had, not to mention the restaurant in the evening, which was excellent, with incredibly delicious local dishes. Internal and protected parking. Really strategic location. Our stay was a real experience.

Loved the attention to detail, the warm welcome on Arrival and the following day at breakfast. Breakfast was superb, Valentina and Vicenzo could not have been more accommodating. Great shower as well.

Few places have fascinated me so much. La Bastide has exceeded all expectations. Luxurious structure and at the same time it feels like being at home. Everything was perfect and in particular the food and breakfast with genuine eggs prepared on the spot and a variety of sweet and savory products to fully satisfy the most demanding palates. The convenience of parking inside the structure is a real luxury. Excellent cleanliness everywhere and a staff to be praised. The antique bed is amazing, mattress and pillow are dreamlike. Truly a unique experience to be repeated for several nights. Absolutely recommended!!!

No photo can do justice to how wonderful this place is in person!! All the staff were super friendly and welcoming, the food was truly excellent and the view is priceless!! Every detail is taken care of down to the smallest detail and the cleanliness everywhere is impeccable. The entire stay was incredible and the room we stayed in (Vincellaro) was exceptional with every comfort and a dream shower. Beautiful park to walk in. Valentina welcomed us with love and told us the story of this fantastic house. I can't wait to come back!!!!
