A magnificent spa hotel in the beautiful Bologna countryside, with spectacular wellness facilities, lavish dining and breathtaking views all around – includes breakfast, spa perks and more
-
Opulent rural abode: Nestled in the rolling hills of the Bologna countryside, Palazzo di Varignana Resort & Spa is the ultimate luxe country retreat. Centred around a spectacular 18th-century castle surrounded by 30 hectares of scenic parklands, the property oozes old-world Italian charm, while boutique interiors and a sleek modern finish add a touch of contemporary luxury.
-
Sumptuous spa moments: Set over 2,500 square metres, the sprawling Varsana Spa is an immersive relaxation experience, with an extensive list of high-end massages and treatments plus a selection of experience showers, state-of-the-art saunas and hydrotherapy. And with a salt-water pool, artificial salt quarry, and five outdoor hydromassage pools at your disposal in the summer, you really can’t go wrong.
-
Refined Italian fare: Fabulous restaurants await you here, from sophisticated fine-dining at Il Grifone to the opulent Treno Reale, set in an original 1920s train carriage. For something a little more casual, tuck into cosy home-style cuisine at Trattoria Le Marzoline and enjoy panoramic views at Aurevo, or perhaps sample elevated health-focused dining at Gingko. Wherever you go, menus are an ode to local ingredients and the region's culinary heritage, while two stylish bars offer an eclectic mix of drinks.

From here, it's only a 15-minute drive to the small city of Castle San Pietro Terme, with its golf course and 14th-century thermal baths.
