The accommodation
There are 3 double rooms, all with private bathrooms, one of which has facilities for the disabled;
common area such as living room, kitchen, where guests can prepare their own meals, reception with all the information to organize their stay, large green area in front of the farmhouse.
All three rooms are housed in one of the buildings in the complex called "Casa Piazza," named after the 'last family who lived there. It is a three-story house with balchio, entirely dedicated to hospitality, perfectly preserved.
Rural environment preserved in its originality, convinced that the preservation of the traces of life and spatiality of the peasant house, down to its details, is the way to give new life to buildings, documents of the past and thus the foundation for a new sense of community, rooted in tradition.
The restoration was carried out in a philological manner using only traditional materials: oak wood, natural lime, and local stone. Special attention was given to lime since this material was typical of the area and the valley, so much so that the Campelli family produced it with a small quarry in the woods above the houses.

A visit to the Rocca di Valle di Castrignano can be arranged at the headquarters, also visiting some interiors of the oldest tower. On foot it is possible to reach the tower-house nicknamed "Malavilla," where a philological restoration is also under way, an ancient medieval tower, among the last still standing in the entire Parma area.

Similar activities in the same manner can also be done among the hills of Torrechiara.

Pleased to meet you, I am Elena and I am 41 years old.
Here I am with my partner, Jacopo
I have been managing Rocca di Valle di Castrignano since 2020 along with my family.
As well as we welcome the guests, we rear the animals.
It was a desire to to keep the family business alive which led me to run an agriturismo.
Our guests' favourite thing about Rocca di Valle di Castrignano is the chance to stay in a natural setting.
