Wir haben in Dozza einen schönen und sehr erholsamen Urlaub verbracht.

Unsere Erwartungen wurden mehr als erfüllt. Das Anwesen ist sehr groß und bietet viele schöne Orte zum entspannen. Der Pool war angenehm groß und hat unseren Kindern und uns sehr viel Spaß bereitet. In unserem Appartement haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Alles war bei unserer Anreise wunderschön vorbereitet. Die Ferienwohnung können wir nur weiterempfehlen. Grazie Franco

Hosted by Franco Giaconia

Franco was born in Tuscany and has known Teresa on a trip to Africa. Both are travel enthusiasts.
In 1999, Franco, Teresa, and the kids Antonio and Anna from Tuscany are transfered in Dozza.
Franco immediately was fascinated by Villa Calanco, dwelling which since 1700 has been owned by the family of Teresa
As a restorer has personally coordinated and executed many of the restoration works that have lasted over 10 years.
Teresa, graduate in history, works at the State Archives of Imola.
Antonio is an architect and works in a technical office in Imola and Anna study at the University of Bologna.

Why they chose this property

Privileged location - In peaceful countryside but easy to reach from the motorway, from the train station, airport of Bologna. Excellent and convenient base for visits cultural tourism. A few minutes from all services, various typical restaurants, food stores and supermarket.
Charming apartments - Spacious, independent and real quality apartments, characteristic, carefully restored and equipped with all comforts and furnished keeping intact the charm of the rural tradition of Romagna.

What makes this property unique

We believe that we are offering something that has been missing in Romagna: not average farm holiday accommodation, not uninspiring flats, but cozy apartments in historical villa in which the owners themselves reside, amid the charm of history , comfort and tradition.
Family management - Managing reservations, keys delivery, ceck-in and ceck-out run by Franco and his family who live in the main part of the villa and are always available for any question or information
