+ Casaforte Bastide is the best preserved medieval Watchtower for Ferrara that remains, and has been beautifully restored by Valentina and her husband into a very special place. Our room had 15th and 16th century antiques including a bed you usually will only view on a tour of a chateau. The bathroom is modern with a new walk in shower. There are only 6 rooms so it is a very private. Dinner was one of the best we have had on many trips to Europe over decades by a wonderful chef Patricia. Valentina greeted us on arrival and is a wonderful host.

+ Casaforte La Bastide is nothing less than a labour of love or a cherished treasure trove. From the arrival at the noble alleyway leading to the house every detail is thought of. History lives and flourishes at this place. We enjoyed every minute - the afternoon in the quiet garden with its orchard and little vineyard. Our room was the "Torre del canonico" - fitting by chance for two people who have lived and worked in rectories vor decades. Dinner was a first class affair, cooked to the highest standard for the three couples present in the magic garden atmosphere. Thank you, Valentina, Thomas, Christina and Lorenzo! You made our 40. wedding anniversary a very special occasion!
