CASCINA RODIANI, DEZZO - COMO, LOMBARDY


Cascina Rodiani is a family run eco Room & Breakfast with a low environmental impact. Its eco sustainable touristic activities date back to the renovation of a colonial house in the 1600's and the repossession of its surrounding grounds.



Located on top of a hill within the Spina Verde Regional Park, the farmstead features stunning panoramic views, especially at sunset, over the valley and eastern Alps.  At the same time you can enjoy long relaxing walks, hiking, bike rides and horse riding, due to start shortly, in the park, along the alps or around Lakes Como and Lugano.



These well known Lakes offer numerous water sports, sailing activities and the opportunity to visit the neoclassic country homes and botanic gardens. Casina Rodiani is an ideal choice for a healthy, relaxing holiday in a historical and natural setting. 



This ambitious project, which dates back to 2011, is the result of creative minds and the different passions of those who have envisioned it.



During the restoration works, particular attention was paid in maintaining and further enhancing the unique style of the building. At the same time the concepts of “reuse, repurpose, recycle and reduce” were applied both for building materials, furniture and the everyday running of the farmhouse ranging from water to food, waste and electrical systems. In the future we intend to turn the farmhouse's 3 acres into landscape and agriculture requalifying projects.


All essential elements for what is known as Green Hospitality.
