Bacialupo appears on one hill of Oltrepò Pavese…

Wonderful place to stay.
Pluspunten · We spent 6 nights in this property. Spacious room furnished with antique furnitures, comfortable bed & bathroom. The house is a late 17th century traditional farmhouse which beautifully renovated into a convenient modern house without loosing its authenticity. The backyard is so cozy & very well maintained with marvellous views to the vineyards and enough spaces to sit around the swimming pool. The breakfast was very good. Generous spread of local meats and cheeses, fruits, breads, juice and a way-too difficult to choose-selection of cakes. The location is on the top of the hill, surrounded with charming towns and small villages. Sarah gave us recommendations for restaurants and daily excursions that were perfect for us. She asked for feedback after our day trips, clearly making sure it worked for us. Sarah, Federico and their lovely children are a wonderful host. They were so friendly, attentive, helpful and welcoming, but on the same time they let us spend our own time to enjoy the day and relax at their wonderful property. Thank you Sarah & Federico for a wonderful stay at Bacialupo. We will definitely be back in the future for a longer stay
A lovely weekend in the countrysideSpent a weekend at Bacialupo with family and friends. Sarah and Federico were great hosts, very friendly and informative. They live and love the area and are always available for great tips, whether on local wineries, on food or daytrips. I absolutely recommend it for anybody looking for a great place to stay and use as a starting point to visit this gorgeous part of Italy.
Top relaxation at the vineyards of Oltrepo PaveseMy partner and I stayed with Sarah for five nights as we had friends getting married in the Lombardy. It is a region of Italy that we were previously unaware of and one that we hope to return to.
A car is needed to explore the rolling vineyards and authentic buildings and parishes that populate the region. It is picture perfect gorgeous.
Sarah’s home is lovely and peaceful. There is a garden to relax and the rooms are clean and well furnished. In addition to amenities in the bedrooms there are additional cleaning, cooking and washing facilities in the out building.
During our time with Sarah we had a number of great dining experiences; in the restaurant down the road and in the nearest town of Santa Maria. We can’t thank Sarah and family enough for making our stay so great.
Picture perfect Foresteria Lombarda with wonderful host family
We were staying in Italy for a wedding and were previously unaware of the Lombardy wine region. Sarah was incredibly helpful in facilitating our stay and familiarising us with the region. We stayed in the La Mansarda room, one of the two rooms within the main building. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was amazing. Being a renovated 17th century building the house is packed with distinct features in keeping with the region. We woke to the sound of church bells on the half hour and took an Italian breakfast outside each day with stunning views from the garden. There is a traditional restaurant within walking distance and the town of Santa Maria della Versa is a short drive away. If you are looking for a unique Italian experience away from the tourism of the cities and beaches this is a great place to stay.

Wonderful owners with very good tips
We were worried that there was not much to do in the area for a week, Sarah had wonderful tips on what to do and where to eat each day which they tried themselves first.
Each day of the week was a wonderful surprise, very much enjoyed getting to know the area through their expert local knowledge.
The children played with their children, was fun to see the trust grow..
Very much recommend Sarah’s local advice for daily itinary tips.
Friendly and very helpful staff – Very familiar – Lovely restaurant very close – Nice surrounding area
Tolles Ambiente, freundliche Besitzer, ruhige Lage.
Bel endroit trés convivial.
Un accueil agréable, des hôtes trés sympathiques.
Wij (mijn vrouw en ik) zijn een week in bacialupo geweest. Zeer gastvrij ontvangen en geweldige kamer (la mansardia) gehad met alles erop en eraan. Doordat we een week bleven konden we de “buitenkeuken ” gebruiken wat een geweldige ervaring was tijdens ons verblijf. Leuk contact met de uitbaters gehad en diverse uitstapjes gemaakt op hun advies. Erg mooi wijngebied en lekker eten en absoluut betaalbaar. Ik zeg doen!!!

Voto: ottimo. La struttura è curata nei particolari, le stanze sono spaziose, accoglienti e con bagno privato. Federico e Sarah sono degli ottimi padroni di casa e le loro bambine sono una piacevolissima compagnia. Si va via con la voglia di tornarci presto. Grazie Sarah , Leo e Irene
We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad bij Foresteria Lombarda Bacialupo. De vriendelijke ontvangst, de ontspannen sfeer, de week is wat ons betreft omgevlogen. Vanaf Bacialupo kun je mooie steden als Pavia en Milaan bezoeken, maar ook een wandeling in de omgeving is meer dan de moeite waard. En wanneer je lekker wilt luieren, dan is de tuin met het heerlijke zwembad een uitstekend alternatief. Vooral de hangmat was erg populair bij ons…..;-). Maar ook onze hond Baloe voelde zich helemaal thuis. En heerlijk eten en drinken spreekt voor zich! De eigenaren geven prima tips om in de omgeving te gaan bekijken en doen. Kortom, wij komen terug!
…It is not only that Sarah and Federico gave us a lot of advice, were nice and attentive to our needs (which they absolutely were). They were so open, so friendly. They told us their beautiful love story, shared their vision on life in Italy, showed every corner of their house and shared their plans on what else they want to do/build on their property…
Ein kleines Stück vom Paradies. Die Lage und das Anwesen sind wunderbar, die Gastgeber wirklich sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und den Start in unseren Urlaub genossen. Pool, Garten, großzügiges Zimmer – ein kleines Paradies mit fantastischem Ausblick. Tolle Restaurants in der unmittelbaren Nähe!
