Calto della Scala

This is a wonderful place to spend a few peaceful days in a beautiful surrounding. The property offers the comfort of a spacious, sun-bathed garden with more than enough loungers. The room is perfect, with a beautiful view of the garden, a comfortable and spacious bed, and a TV; the connected bathroom offers all facilities. The host is very kind and thoughtful, offering plenty of information about places to visit, shops to go to, excursions, etc. The breakfast is wonderful, including home-made jam, delicious coffee, pancakes, bio yogurt, juice, brioche, home-made bread... A perfect stay!

I stayed three weeks at Calto della Scala which is a modern and most of all charming B&B. What I am most grateful for is that the hosts made me feel like I was a very welcome friend they took pleasure in having. They offered useful ideas well considering my preference for activities and places to go; they willingly provided anything I asked for to make me feel even more comfortable and they simply invited me into their circle of trust. I just loved our talks over breakfast (and am sure that, would I have preferred to be on my own, they would have let me discretely) ! The house - a former farmhouse, beautifully, tastefully and lovingly changed into a home - is situated wonderfully in the hills near the forest above Torreglia and hence - even in the hottest time of the year - the room's temperature was very agreeable (with a little help of a ventilator, an air dryer provided and of course shutters). The room is small but very clean, homey and offers all you need incl. a roomy bathroom. I was able to move freely on the premise, loved to sit in the deckchair on the lawn to read and enjoy the view, absolute stillness and nature - so lovely! The dog and many cute cats kept at a discrete distance and only came near when they sensed that I was willing to. The surrounding offers all you can think of: The Eugenian hills are great for leisurely strolls, hikes, drives - and for ambitious people: (mountain) biking; be careful it's really steep and challenging, I find! -, there are plenty of wonderful restaurants, osterias, agriturismos etc., there are museums and lots of interesting architecture around and of course it's a few € to take a 10 minute train ride from the near train station in Montegrotto to Padua and little more to Venice - both thus reachable for a day-tour without any strain. I also did day-trips (by car) to Vicenza and to Verona to attend the opera in the Arena - very recommendable. And there is lots more - more than you can see or do with several weeks. And to come back to the relaxing, welcoming B&B Calto della Scala in the evening after a busy day to "digest" the many lovely impressions is the best! Thanks, Guilia and Enrico, for having me! I will return any time I am around!

Tolle Lage, absolute Ruhe, ideal zum Relaxen und für Wanderungen. Es gibt nur dieses eine Zimmer für 2, daher ist man völlig ungestört. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, das Frühstück kommt mit leckeren selbstgemachten Produkten. Ein Spaniel, viele Katzen und 2 Ziegen ergänzen die Idylle. Einzig der Zufahrtsweg (Schotter) ist wg. der Schlaglöcher ein wenig "kriminell", d. h. für Ferrari & Co. eher weniger geeignet, für normale PKW aber kein Problem.

Stunning place: in the middle of nature, with a view of the hills, very close to remarkable cultural excursions. Villa dei Vescovi, Abbey of Praglia, seventeenth-century gardens of Villa Barbarigo, Villa Selvatico, Catajo Castle the most relevant sites. But also Arqua Petrarca and the numerous walks on foot or by bike that can be done. Giulia is very kind and helpful. Excellent breakfast. Recommended!

Excellent structure and splendid place in the Euganean Hills.

It is a beautiful house on a hill with a nice garden and a small wood at the back, made, furnished, and cared for with love, where in addition to the good air, you can breathe serenity. Ideal for those who want to relax and unwind.

The owner was excellent. Abundant breakfast with organic products. Everything was fantastic. I definitely recommend it. Thank you for everything.

Congratulations to the host for the welcome and proactive suggestions to fully enjoy the cultural and gastronomic beauties of the area.

We had a great time and will be back next year.

The structure is immersed in the greenery and very quiet, ideal if you are looking for tranquility in contact with nature. The accommodation is comfortable and very clean, and the breakfast prepared by Giulia is truly delicious. She and Enrico are extremely friendly and helpful. It was a short but extremely pleasant stay.

Everything is perfect, the location more than peaceful, room and bathroom in perfect order. The managers extremely kind.

Nothing to say except wonderful everything. Thank you.

Courtesy, cleanliness, kindness, excellent breakfast combined with accommodation immersed in the green... what more could you ask for?

Ideal for relaxation and contact with nature.

A wonderful stay: located in a hilly area, just a few minutes from many cultural and food and wine interest places, this bed and breakfast is strategic for a relaxing and invigorating break. Giulia, exceptional host, prepares a truly excellent breakfast, even with homemade foods made by her, of a unique goodness! I suggest it to those who love contact with nature and animals. I can't wait to go back.

Courtesy, availability, and friendliness are not lacking. Enchanting and welcoming place.

È bastata una notte per riuscire ad immergersi nella pace dei sensi. Accoglienza e servizio eccezionali! Ci tornerò!

Posto molto ben curato ed accogliente, immerso nel verde e nella tranquillità. La padrona di casa è molto disponibile e affabile.

Abbiamo trascorso due notti in questo B&B circondato dal verde, con alle spalle il bosco. Abbiamo apprezzato il silenzio di questo bellissimo posto e Giulia, la proprietaria, che ci ha preparato una buonissima colazione. Un B&B per chi cerca un soggiorno rilassante. Ines e Daniele.

Abbiamo subito apprezzato la gentilezza e la disponibilità della titolare Giulia, che ci ha accolto in un'ambiente tipico e molto familiare, immerso nel verde, e con la complicità dei suoi graziosi animaletti domestici. La consigliamo vivamente perché è una struttura semplice e accogliente, a due passi dalle attrazioni locali, ideale per una vacanza all'insegna della tranquillità e alla riscoperta dei sapori e sensazioni di tempi passati. Luciano e Paola.

Struttura che trasmette pace e tranquillità sin dal primo sguardo, con il suo ampio giardino, il bosco che la circonda e i tanti amici a quattro zampe. L'alloggio, dotato di camera e bagno con ingresso indipendente, è un ottimo punto base per visitare i colli Euganei e dintorni. Da sottolineare (oltre alla pulizia) la gentilezza e la disponibilità di Giulia, e la colazione merita.
