Home description
5 minute walk from town centre and opposite the market place, this high spec, 2,600 sq ft apt is owned by the owners of this large townhouse villa which contains several other apartments. The apartment for rent here is entirely private with private access and private use of the garden which belongs to this apt only. The other 3 smaller apartments in the building are on permanent rental to Italians and their access is at the back.
This is the perfect base to enjoy this lovely spa town, where beautiful cafes and art nouveau buildings abound, and the surrounding area, famous throughout Italy for its castles and national parks. Salsomaggiore is home to the famous Miss Italia pageant every September and a popular holiday destination for Italians who come to take "the cure" in one of the many spa centres in town or just to be seen in the equally famous evening passegiata. This area is renowned for its cheese, ham and pasta and the house is a mere 30 km from Parma - jewel of Northern Italy.
