Villa in Ponte dell'Olio
Description
Do you want to relax and need a regenerating break in an oasis of tranquility and elegance? Ideal for those seeking contact with nature, the luxury of silence but proximity to gourmet cuisine culture. Stone villa with air conditioning, finely furnished, on 2 floors, entrance with kitchen and panoramic veranda, bathroom with double shower, spiral staircase, large living room and double bedroom with view. Garden oven patio wallbox; Private park with orchard and carpot CIN: IT033036C224FEUMPZ The space The property is on the top of a hill about 450 meters away in a private naturalistic area frequented by roe deer, hares, pheasants and pedemontana fauna. My idea of Happiness is an entirely stone villa surrounded by a private courtyard and a large plot of about 4 hectares; the garden is fenced on all sides with chestnut beams spaced about 10/12 cm from each other and is particularly quiet, safe and quiet as it is protected by a cedum forest and a hilly park always owned by the family and cared for by a gardener; the villa is decentralized with respect to the road that runs along the hill and is part of a village of the late 1800s almost entirely renovated and is free on the 4 sides with independent access. It is set inside a lush garden with aromatic herbs and some fruit trees that you can eat freely . The kitchen is equipped with a fridge and freezer, electric oven, microwave , toaster , coffee maker, mini blender , electric water heater, dishwasher and washing machine, wood-burning stove, wine glasses, dishes and a really complete pot; adjoining bathroom with double shower and double sink and direct access to the veranda with a view (12 m2) , equipped with air conditioning. Living room with independent split with large and bright air conditioning with a sofa in beige king size Alcantara and a single armchair bed openable for the third guest (suitable for children from 13 to 18 years or people of normal size). The living room is connected to the double bedroom (mattress 160x188) equipped with a balcony, and furnished with authentic designer and antiquarian furniture; TV and mini radio system. In the garden you can use the beautiful stone table or enjoy the view from the veranda or sit comfortably on the equipped pvc sofa on the ground floor. Have lunch in the shade of the sun under the 40 m2 porch and enjoy the garden on the deckchairs provided or under the 420x220 maxi umbrella (from June to October) The nearest village is called Bridge of Oil and is about 7 km (12 minutes) reachable only by car or motorcycle due to climbs and descents in some steep places. In the neighborhood near the private hill, the hamlet of Sarmata is developed, inhabited by numerous families, some with alternating presence. At 15 km you can find Carpaneto Piacentino where the city market is held on Sundays. In both there are shops and all the services, banks pharmacies and supermarkets and shops specializing in local charcuterie and cheeses. From the house there are numerous hilly roads partly paved and partly dirt roads that can also be reached on foot and with your e-bike and of course by car or motorcycle where you can meet numerous wineries producing the famous native ortrugo and gutturn wines! The air is clear and smog-free due to the privileged location, ventilated in summer . The silence reigns supreme with the noises of the woods and ,looking up at night , you'll be amazed by the brightest stars you've ever seen . On the tighter days looking northwest you can see the silhouette of Mont Blanc more than 400 km away! Very light and diuretic water comes out of the faucets: drink it peacefully and don't waste it ! In the garden you can sunbathe in absolute privacy and privacy and for those who want to cool off in a pool in the neighboring municipalities there are several well-equipped and not too expensive facilities; since June 2025, the municipal pool of Ponte dell 'Olio has reopened. Starting this year, a paid charging station for electric cars and bicycles with a double Schuko socket and a private meter has been installed. To recharge, ask the host for authorization: the cost in 2026 is €0.75 per kW, and a photo of the meter must be sent before and after your recharge. The station is at the end of the private ramp under the porch on the left beam; payment must be made in cash. To make my home and park cozy, I spent over twenty years putting a lot of passion and love into it: your positive 5-star review will help me and future guests continue this fascinating work with effort. Thanks for your choice 😊 Guest access Guests have the entire fenced garden and a parking lot under a wooden pergola enclosed by a bar. From the parking lot, you can walk to the house by taking a few steps and going down 3 steps. From December to the end of February, although rare, snowfall is possible: therefore, if you book during this period, your car must be equipped with efficient winter tires or snow chains if needed. Outside the fenced area, you can walk along the private road and walk along the hill on foot, making a circular path of about 1 km. The area is full of pizzerias and typical restaurants: among these, just 5 minutes by car, you will find the famous Locanda Cacciatori restaurant (closed on Wednesdays) in Mistadello di Castione (6 minutes from the house), frequented by gourmets from the neighboring regions, or the La Pattona agriturismo, open from Wednesday to Sunday (book!) The stone house facing the rented one is always my property and is used by me only when there are no guests, so during your stay you will enjoy absolute privacy (the property is monitored only outside by a webcam that controls the common areas). If you have bicycles, you can park them under the garden porch. I would like to point out the cycle path that connects Piacenza with the Trebbia river, passing through Rivergaro, about 50 km long! The best for 2-wheel lovers. For more information, consult the QR code of the famous locations of Emilia Romagna. Other things to note A wonderful idea to spend spring and summer away from overtourism, in the hills just a short distance from Parma, Busseto, and Piacenza. I REMEMBER THE PANCETTA FESTIVAL ON MAY 3, 2026! True peace away from the hustle and bustle of tourist resorts, finally getting to read a good book or bask in the sun in the villa’s park, surrounded by silence, overlooking the landscape of the Ligurian Prealps, or watching the deer from the veranda as they graze peacefully in the Val Nure and Val Trebbia… You can also go on guided tours (by reservation) of the nearby medieval castles of Gropparello, Castel Arquato, and Bobbio, or take a walk in Grazzano Visconti or Piacenza. Here's the gift you need to give yourself that will remain in your heart . 10% WEEKLY DISCOUNT automatically applied for stays of 7 days or more. 20% MONTHLY DISCOUNT automatically applied for stays of at least 28 days. Except for other ongoing promotions. Also, if you've booked for at least three days, you'll definitely want to do a classic grill or turn on the 6 pizza oven. Bring the necessary wood with you, or ask the host . In addition to the gas heating you will find, as mentioned, a wood-burning stove and the new air system to warm up on the coldest winter days. Getting there on the hottest days in the summer being the house facing southwest you might prefer the use of the porch for lunch . In the house you will still find the air conditioning splits calibrated to 21 degrees, 2 fans in addition to the ceiling of the bedroom. In the evening it is cool and ventilated and the mosquitoes are very rare and in any case in the balcony door in the bedroom and in the bathroom window there is a sliding mosquito net. The new umbrella provided should always be closed at night and when you are absent from the house or in case of wind. For the washing of dishes, I prefer that you use the dishwasher: There is liquid detergent or organic tablets to be poured into the appropriate tray. Being a country house it is not directly connected to the public sewer. Therefore, limit the use of detergents , soap, and toilet paper and do not throw absolutely in the toilet or any object: you will block the drain . In particular, do not throw organic or coffee residue in the kitchen sink. Remember that the living room and bedroom are connected to the ground floor only by a spiral staircase (visible in the photo on the site) Registration Details IT033036C224FEUMPZ
