We enjoyed our stay at the academy. We had the larger half of the guesthouse of that immense property and had plenty of space. Since the Emilia-Romagna gets rather hot in the summer it is very nice to have some air conditioning and to cool the flat down when you get home. The views are great and we had a large terrace were we had meal in the evening. I took a hike in the morning with our dog through the wild and romantic bushes of the property. This is for everybody who wants to be close to Bologna but prefers living green.
