At just 10 minutes from Mantua, the Corte Casone is an ancient farmhouse whose name had already appeared in some documents of the early 15th century. Now it is a dairy farm situated in the heart of Parco del Mincio, a natural reserve which offers wide green spaces, trees and plants of different types and the opportunity of sightseeing the natural fauna in its typical environment. The wide garden surrounding the farmhouse is provided with tables and forms in order to let visitors picnic in a relaxing open space in the trees shadow or let them simply enjoy the peaceful countryside; our B&B also offers a free car parking place, situated in the front of the house. Inside the house you will find a cosy and very warm atmosphere thanks to the architectural characteristics of the rooms, furnished in a simple and comfortable way. The recent renovation has been done preserving the original ceilings with wooden rafters and bricks, the brick arcade and the ancient pigeon loft. You can make trips and excursions on foot or by bike because the Corte Casone has nearly access to the nearby bycicle track that links Mantua to the lake of Garda, which are about 7 and 30 Km respectively from the farmhouse. It is also possible to visit the interesting marshes of the Valleys of Mincio, Parco delle Bertone and Bosco della Fontana, all typical environements of the area. Mariposa and her son Platero, the house mascots, are always ready to be petted by visitors who love animals and their company.

The accommodation is limited to doubles and a single room, all provided with private bathrooms. Additional beds available. The recently renovated rooms have preserved the original structure of wooden rafter ceilings and bricks; there you may find a lovely place to have a healthy and comfortable rest from 6:00 p.m to 10:00 a.m. every day, except in case of different agreements.

           

We are in strada Soana 17/A, Soave di Porto Mantovano, Mantova. Leave the motorway A22 in MANTOVA NORD and take the direction MANTOVA. After MOTTELLA (a little village not far from the motorway) you'll find a roundabout: take the direction BRESCIA. Go on until you reach another big roundabout: there, follow the traffic signs leading to CITTADELLA. Go on for 2 Km and, once you see the sign SOAVE DI PORTO M., turn right in that direction. When you reach the centre of Soave, in front of "Bar Bacco" turn left and you will see the Church (to your left hand). Continue beyond the church and, after passing a bridge - where you will see the traffic sign STRADA SOANA -, you shall keep on driving until you find the big white farmhouse on the left with the handwritten sign CORTE CASONE BED&BREAKFAST. There we are!
