Karen's Review Of
Tenuta Castel Venezze:
Tenuta Castel Venezze:
Bordering the region of Veneto and Emilia Romagna is the vast farm property of the Contessa Maria Giustiniani, who runs the agritourism business with the help of her son. Conveniently located on the outskirts of Rovigo, only 15 km from the autostrada exit, you come across the main walled villa and farm complex, and shortly thereafter a tree-lined driveway and another group of houses. The horse stables and farmer’s quarters have been converted into guestrooms within the main house, while 6 apartments each with two bedrooms, living room and kitchen are divided among four adjacent houses in the garden. The natural red brick of the 500-year old buildings sets off a lush garden with swimming pool. On the main floor past a comfortable sitting area is the rustic dining room where a traditional breakfast and dinner are served. A long, two-story high, arched porch is also a favorite place for outside dining. Upstairs are the air-conditioned guest bedrooms each furnished with family antiques and complimented by sparkling new bathrooms. We particularly like the larger superior doubles and corner bedrooms. Bikes are available and the terrain is flat. Tour Venetian villas, visit Padova and Monselice, or arrange for cooking lessons.

First, let me say as a tourguide for AAA World Tours, and an avid traveler (albiet a bit spoiled by AAA)
Contessa Maria is one of the most friendly,gracious, accommodating hostesses I have ever met. The Tenuta is immaculate, and the cooking school was wonderful. I still make the best gnocchi in Northern California.
So, ultimately I can only tell you of my and my husband’s experience, but honestly, this was one of the most memorable, enjoyable experiences ever.

Looking at the pictures, you think it is a romantic castle in Italy. Arriving there is a big disappointment. The rocky road towards the place is a disaster for you and your car. The owner Mrs Maria Giustiniani is very unfriendly. She does not advise you if you have any questions, no brochures etc. The apartments are dirty, moisty and full of dirty insects. The type of people visiting the ’Castle’ made us feel very unsafe.
