The Anna Apartment was just as expected - a really rustic apartment, modernised with a decent bathroom suite, internet and a TV. (I must emphasise the word 'rustic'. We loved it but if you want ultra modern then Apartment Anna is definitely not for you!)Checkin could'nt have been easier. Franco greeted us at the agreed time, completed the paperwork in a few minutes and then walked us through the apartment and his estate including the swimming pool and numerous outside tables and barbecue facilities.Inside there is an open plan kitchen / living room with a spiral staircase to the upper floor with its double bedroom, bathroom and washing maching/utility area. There are aircon units in the living room and bedroom. The estate is on the outskirts of Dozza, a lovely village that's about a 25 minute walk away. It has lots of cafes and restaurants but no supermarket. However there's an Aldi and a Lidl in Imola, a 10 minute drive away. It's a 30 minute drive to Bologna and we managed a day trip to Venice (via train from Bologna) with no difficulty. Rimini, on the Adriatic Coast, is about a hour's drive along the motorway or closer to two hours on the old country roads.

Absolutely fabulous!

In June we spent a week in apartment Anna. We enjoyed our stay very much, the house and surrounding gardens are quite beautiful and the swimming pool was convenient during a hot day. The apartment was big enough for the two of us and had all the necessary kitchenware and services. The town of Dozza is at walking distance and has several good restaurants. Following a tip of our host Franco we took the train in Castel San Pietro Terme to the city of Bologna which we liked very well. Compliments to Franco and his family who restored this beautiful villa and provide an excellent service overall. Recommended if you want to visit this part of Emila Romagna.

Nice appartement located in a villa along a country road. We have not spent time at that place except for sleeping as we were busy to visit Bologna, Auto d’Epoca and so on joining also some friends. The Villa is conveniently located to visit the main cities of Modena, Bologna, seaside cities like Ravenna, Rimini and also Ferrara. Train station from Imola is also perfect to reach Bologna. The gentle welcome or act of kindness from our owner has been greatly appreciated. Indeed we have been given a bottle of local white wine upon arrival. A nice place to discover !
