The construction of Le Vescovane goes right back to the 15th century. It is a beautiful farm located in the hills between Vicenza and Padova. Over the years the changing requirements and consequent extensions have resulted in this fantastic place.
The farm underwent total renovation a few years ago. The main building was converted to a charming hotel with nine bedrooms and a good restaurant, which is regularly frequented by people from near and far. During weekends it is very popular for weddings and other large functions.
The bedrooms are all elegantly furnished with antique furniture and more recent pieces, which blend well together. The one and only two superior-rooms is much larger than the others and enjoy splendid views. The bedrooms are equipped with TV, telephone, fridge, air conditioning and, of course, en suite bathroom with hairdryer. As it is a renovated old building, and not a modern hotel build, the bedrooms are all very different, some are bright, others dark, some are very spacious and others are smaller. This is part of the nature and charm of the place, and if this is not to your liking you should find a more standardized place.
The farm's 13 hectare grounds produce wine, olive oil and fruit. Geese, chicken, ducks, goats and the friendliest of pigs are reared here. Part of the production is for sale, but the majority is used in the restaurant kitchen.
The farm has a shared living room with open fireplace and veranda. The place is ideal for small conferences in atmospheric and charming surroundings. Finally it should be pointed out that Le Vescovane is ideal for those who want to explore the region. Distances to all the exciting cultural towns are: 65 km to Venice, 60 km to Verona and 22 km to Padova.
