Acetaia Malagoli Daniele e B&B

We had a great stay at the property. The host Barbara is very friendly and hospitable. What we partucularly liked was the cleanliness and cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended!

The Acetaia is a rare gem, untouched by the ruin of “travel influencers,” that I was happy to find in researching a quiet and peaceful stay centrally-located in Emilia Romagna. This B&B is situated inside of a 500 year old manor house on a rustic farm with many friendly animals. It’s run by the Malagoli family matriarch, Barbara, who bakes fresh sweet cakes for breakfast every morning and makes delicious cappuccini. Rooms are large and comfortable, each with its on guest-controlled mini-split AC unit. The property is expansive and fun to explore. Friendly cats, roosters, hens and peacocks roam freely. A family of ducks and donkeys are penned in a large enclosure nearby. Barbera is kind and accommodating, offering many recommendations for meals and things to see in Castelfranco Emilia, Modena, and Bologna. We booked a Parmesan cheese and balsamic vinegar tasting experience and enjoyed both very much. The B&B is a great option for anyone seeking respite from overcrowded tourist spots in favor of an authentic “slow travel” experience. It is recommended to rent a car to drive to and from the local cities for things to see and do. The property is located approximately 1/2 hour drive from Maranello, Modena, and Bologna. A little further is Parma, and Florence is possible as a day trip by car or train ride from Bologna. I would not hesitate to return if offered an opportunity to visit the region in the future.
