We stayed just one night at this wonderful home. Viviana came out to welcome us and we knew immediately that we'd chosen just the right place to stop over on our travels from Venice to the Cinque Terra. The countryside is breathtaking and the nearby village is just perfect for a quiet authentic Italian meal. Our accommodation was 2 large rooms - one QS bedroom and the other a large lounge room. Viviana was so warm and helpful with her knowledge of the area and made us feel like we were friends who had been away for awhile. Very relaxed and very private. We would definately recommend to others and hope to return one day ourselves.

Staying in B&B da Viviana fulfiled my expectations on nice holidays. A nice house situated in beautiful area provides the best possibility for dreamed-of vacation. The owners are very kind and helpful with everything needed. Top-rated service and rooms. By my own experience l recommend this B&B to people who would like to have holidays in this area.

We have now stayed at B&B Vivana quite a few times as we have been looking for a house in the area, it is always truly a wonderful place to stay. Viviana is a lovely host who has a fantastic knowledge of the area and will always go out of her way to help in anyway she can. The Bed and Breakfast itself is very clean and comfortable and the views are spectacular. At the end of a long day it is a tranquil haven to return to, where you can sit on the balcony or patio, enjoy the views with a glass of wine.
The area has much to offer and although there are no restaurants on the site there are plenty close by in Castelnovo n'monte and the surrounding area. Breakfast is always an event, being able to chat to Viviana is truly wonderful and we have often taken her advice on places to visit and things to see.
If you are looking for tranquility and a wonderful base for exploring Emilia Romagna then this is it.

How can you describe B&B Viviana without spouting one superlative after another?! The location was gorgeous - quiet, peaceful, spectacular views, the cooler mountain air a relief from the baking heat of the valley. The house was beautiful: spacious, clean, airy and well equipped for comfort as well as style. The welcome was unsurpassed - the lovely Viviana made us so welcome, and we felt like we had found a new friend. Due to some last minute bookers, Viviana let us have the apartment downstairs instead of the family room upstairs, and at no extra cost. This was an unexpected bonus, and we so loved the two spacious rooms and the large luxurious bathroom that if there had been vacancies, we would gladly have sacrificed another part of our touring holiday to stay a little longer.

Although not a traditional tourist area, we found plenty to do locally - visiting the Parmesan Cheese farm and factory just down the road was an amazing experience, and the bell factory at the valley bottom was a real photo opportunity.

We would recommend Viviana's B&B to anyone and everyone. We can't wait to return!
