Great stay, highly recommended

Francesco and his wife were wonderful hosts. Great communication and support before and during the stay. The property is very charming and the breakfast was to die for.

Just be aware that the property is on the outskirts of the city, just off the highway. Once inside the grounds you do feel as though you’re in the countryside, but you can still hear the nearby traffic.

Very Pleasant Stay - Great Location / Wonderful Host / Excelent Breakfast.

Very pleasant stay - very helpful host who took a lot of time to recommend sights and restaurants in Parma. A really nice location in a beautifully restored old farmhouse. Great breakfast with lots of home made products.

My stay was very nice. I wish I could have stayed an extra day. I will be back for sure! Thank you!

The property was very comfortable and rustic. It felt like you were in the Italian country side. The bed was very comfortable and the room was very large. Thank you for a great stay.

Authentic Italian experience with very welcoming hosts!

The hosts Francesco and Angelica were very kind. The property is a renovated farmhouse and it is very quaint and charming. Breakfast is impeccable with all cakes made by Angelica.

A bottle of water per person and a hot water boiler would be nice in the room.

Beautiful historic property with fantastic hosts!

Beautiful history property, exquisitely maintained. felt like a trip back in time to an 18th century Italian farm house. Francesco and Angelica were fantastic hosts, from the communication up front, check in, the delicious and highly personalized breakfast, to seeing us off at the end.

No complaints!

I am so glad I booked this.

I am very happy I stayed at this Gem: Great hospitality, lavender smelling bright ample rooms, fresh baked goods, amazing accommodations & genuine smiles that exceeded my expectations. Podere Merlo was the highlight of my stay in the region -and possibly italy-. Podere merlo is a 10 out of 10.

The property was wonderful the owners could not do enough for us and providing help when needed

We wanted a safe location to stay on our drive through the area which provided car parking. This met our need perfectly as it was only a 10 minute taxi ride outside of the main town.

We were very happy with everything so there was absolutely nothing we didn't like.

Lovely setting close to Parma

Welcoming staff, excellent breakfast and a comfortable room

The water was only luke warm at best in the shower, and there were strict rules about not eating or drinking anything but their supplied small bottle of water in the rooms. While this was easy to comply with, it would have been nice to have a common area elsewhere, with a kettle to make hot drinks

Visit Parma and stay at B&B Podere Merlo

The room was bright, attractive and very functional. It also had air-conditioning which was a real life saver in the extremely hot 🔥 weather. Bed was firm and comfortable, and the breakfast was varied and tasty.

I liked everything about this place and highly recommend it to travellers visiting Parma.

Come for the aesthetic, stay for the breakfast :)

Francesco was very helpful with restaurant recommendations and outlining the city of Parma. Breakfast was wonderful, we had the best panna cotta we have ever had and there were many fresh baked pastries and fresh from the garden fruits - absolutely wonderful! The room was very cozy and the vintage farm house décor was very charming.

Perfection

It is difficult to capture just how perfect this place is. Just outside the town of Parma, the sounds of crickets at night and birds chirping in the morning will lull you into one of the most restful sleeps and joyful awakenings of your trip. The building has been beautifully redone, retaining all of the old world charm and nostalgia travelers crave. The breakfast is an event - set in the picturesque dining room, delicious homemade items just keep coming and coming. The owners are delightful, their hard work and dedication to offering a wonderful experience for their guests is felt through all of their thoughtful details. Couldn't recommend this place enough, and a visit to charming Parma.

Perfect spot to stop for a night

Excellent and huge breakfast. Very helpful and friendly owners. Beautiful buildings

The only slight downside was the air con was in the corridor outside the bathroom, rather than in the bedroom, although it couldn't realistically go elsewhere

We loved everything about our stay! Out hosts were very welcoming and gracious. The rooms were very quaint and historic but had all the modern amenities. The grounds were beautiful and very private. The breakfast bountiful and delicious with a wide assortment of homemade pastries, yogurt and Panna cotta. Located only 5 minutes from the Parma city center.

Awesome B&B just outside of Parma like stepping back into a kinder, gentler time.

Breakfast was exceptional with homemade yogurt, pastries, jams, etc. and accompanied with cappucinos and local hams. There were three in our party and we had a suite with two lovely bedrooms with a warm and inviting sitting room. There was also a large outdoor sitting area overlooking a large lawn and sitting area. Overall the property is beautifully restored and maintained by the owners Francesco and Angelica who were most gracious. One highlight was there recommendation of Simonetta as a local guide for a private four hour tour of Parma highlighting its history, culture, sights and recommendations for dining.

Absolutely lovely

Podere Merlo is wonderful! It is perfect if you are travelling with car. House itself is cozy and has real Italian feeling, it is historical and very well restaurated and has big garden around it. Hosts are very friendly and also suggested us many great things to do. Rooms are big, breakfast served outside is probably one of the best I ever had. Loved everything about this place and I am suggesting it to eveyone who wants to feel real Italy.

Superb

It is a delightful house,beautifully stylish and very comfortable. The bedroom was lovely and the breakfast truly excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay including dinner at the local trattoria 183 which was very good.

The location is semi urban and close to roads but sufficiently set back for there to be no noise problem inside the house.
