Farm-house Colombarotto

Description Colombarotto

Colombarotto Farm Holidays is placed within the "Parco Oglio Nord ", at the heart of cultural and naturalistic route, just 10 minutes far from the centre of Cremona. The farmstead Colombarotto is a wide close court yard with peculiar long arcades, a little church consacrated to St. Sofia and St. Damaso, the manor house with the dovecot, and an ancient cowshed now used as restaurant. Most of the rooms have been obtained out of the recently renovated shooting lodge, situated among the poplar groves near the river Oglio. The paths among the poplar groves and the bank on the river Oglio are the ideal place for walks, bike or horse ridings, while watching the native wildlife. Our restaurant draw inspiration from the tipical kooking of Cremona. We use an high percentage of our products, especially meat, vegetables and wine. We just cook tipical regional products. Cookery of Cremona is one of the best of Italy. We normally are open from Friday to Sunday. We have a vineyard in Lazise (Garda Lake) where we produce these wines: Bardolino DOP, Bardolino Chiaretto DOP, Bardolino Chiaretto Spumante Brut DOP, Vino Bianco Spumante Brut. Snack From Fryday to Sunday from 18.00 you can taste our snacks based on "salumi " (salted pork meats), omelette, with regional wines. Bed and Breakfast hosting takes place mainly in the former shooting lodge just renovated, with 6 wide double-rooms and 2 single rooms, all of them providing toilets and air-conditioning. All double roooms have cooking facilities, and is possible to add a bed. The rooms on the first floor have a little balcony, and those at the ground floor are easy to reach for disabled persons. The renovation has been particularly careful as far as quality and typicality of materials (terracotta and larch floors, wood ceilings, country style furniture) and the respect of the environement (boiler working with bark) are concerned. In the manor house we also have a big apartment with 3 rooms (1 double, 1 triple and 1 quadruple), kitchen, dining room, living room and private garden. Totally we have 11 rooms (24 beds). It is the ideal place for people who love riding, mountain-bike, fishing on the river and rowing (we have a handy slipway on the river Oglio).
