Die Geschichte
Construction of the farmhouse
The foundation stone is laid – a typical Piedmontese farmhouse is built. Traditional bricks and wood are used to create a home for people and animals.
Purchase of the farmhouse
The old farmhouse was bought by Marina and HJ in order to renovate it and adapt it to the needs of future guests.
Start of the refurbishment
Loving craftsmanship preserves the historical charm and integrates new materials – a milestone for comfort.
Opening of the B&B
Das Bauernhaus erstrahlt in neuem Glanz und vereint Tradition und Moderne. Es erzählt seine Geschichte durch jedes Detail – ein Ort voller Seele und Geschichte.
Who we are
52-year-old curious, lively, open and fun-loving Milanese woman.
After a long professional journey that has taken me around the world, I have been living and working in Cologne with my husband for the last few years.
Now I have decided to spend my future here, back in my home country.
I would like to offer a place of peace and serenity where you can determine and enjoy your own time. I would like to support anyone who is interested and accompany them for a short time as they discover my wonderful homeland of Italy.
Today I am still discovering the many possibilities and special features of my country, which I would love to share with you.
My motto is ‘If you’re too big for small tasks, you’re too small for big tasks!’
64-year-old calm, composed engineer from Cologne, with a spasmodic love for technology and its applications, as well as for the pleasures of his new home.
I have enthusiastically accepted this new challenge for my new 2G phase of life and would like to introduce more people to the beautiful and unique discoveries of this country, which is so different from Germany.
2G Gelassenheit und Genuss which stands for Serenity and enjoyment
Niko is now very, very tired and had to say goodbye to us. We accompanied him on his last journey with love and gratitude. This was the end of a friendship of almost 14 years that will remain in our hearts
We mention Niko in our story because this cuddly, unruly and often smelly, ever-present friend has truly shared every moment of our last 14 years.
