What's so special about Relais Roncolo 1888?

Relais Roncolo 1888 | A Heritage Hideaway in the Heart of Emilia-Romagna

If your dream wedding includes terracotta tiles, sweeping vineyard views, and a chilled glass of Lambrusco in handโ€”Relais Roncolo 1888 may just be your perfect match. Tucked into the foothills between Parma and Bologna, this beautifully restored 17th-century estate offers authentic Italian charm with a contemporary twist.

Set within a 320-acre certified organic estate, sustainability here isnโ€™t just a nice-to-haveโ€”itโ€™s a way of life. From solar-powered operations and eco-conscious renovations using traditional materials, to estate-made organic wines and balsamic vinegar, Roncolo 1888 treads lightly while living well. Even the kitchen sources hyper-local produceโ€”some of it grown right on-site.

Itโ€™s all about slow luxury hereโ€”think lazy afternoons by the saltwater pool, wine and balsamic tastings in vaulted cellars, and sun-drenched ceremonies with the Apennines as your backdrop. Whether youโ€™re planning a cosy elopement or a celebration with 200 guests, the estateโ€™s elegant courtyards, historic villas, and fragrant gardens provide plenty of swoon-worthy options.

Inside, the 17 rooms and suites are understated and chicโ€”wood-beamed ceilings, vintage furniture, and views over olive groves give the whole place that effortlessly romantic, lived-in feel. Your guests can settle in, sip local wine, and feast on seasonal Emilian dishes at Ristorante Limonaia, the estateโ€™s elegant, glass-walled dining spot.

Getting here is a breeze (just over an hour from Bologna airport), but leaving? Thatโ€™s another story. Relais Roncolo 1888 is the kind of place that makes you want to press pause and stay a little longer.

Transportation

Italy has plenty of public transport, from the trains to the metro in cities like Milan. The roads (and Italian drivers) are notoriously terrifying for foreigners so itโ€™s often better to take a taxi than hire a car.

Public Holidays

Each town in Italy has it's own patron saint and shuts down to celebrate the saintโ€™s day each year (e.g. Rome is Sts. Peter and Paul, June 29th). Alongside Christmas and Easter, the other big religious festivals are Epiphany (6th January) and All Saints Day (1st November). All of Italy celebrates Labour Day (1st May) and also Liberation Day (April 25th).

Good Time to Go

good to know
