Corte Spinata is located on the Po river cycle path and between two villages :
• 1, 7 km by car from Melara (1800 inhab)
• 2.9 km by car from Bergantino (2,500 inhab)
Italy’s longest river, the Po, was once called the “king of rivers” by Virgil (“fluviorum rex”)
The poet Guido Ceronetti once wrote: “You need to understand the Po to understand Italy,”
The river was, for millennia, a vital transport hub, part of the trade route for Baltic amber in the bronze age. So there are many fascinating archaeological finds from the Bronze age (12th century BC) in the area, don’t miss the museum in Fratta Polesine.
The “Court”, in our local area, was where several families related to each other, 50 people lived together. They cultivated the surrounding land and raised animals. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century this agrarian community produced and used what they needed, the extended families helping and supporting each other.
Within the Court they had everything they needed : the well, the oven, the stables, the chicken coops and even a devotional chapel. The name SPINATA was already present in the Carafa land register of 1779 and was owned by the Bianchini family, who had lived here since the seventeenth century. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Bianchini house passed to the Ridolfi family as a dowry. In 2012, we bought it, renovated it with love and care, built the apartments and started welcoming guests. The Bianchini family emigrated to Sydney, in Australia and their descendants periodically return to spend holidays in Corte Spinata. And so Therese Bianchini and Ross P. (Sydney Australia, 4 -10 September 2023) left us this message, which we are happy to quote word for word:“What a peaceful place tucked away in the small village of Melara.....Do as little as you want or as much as you want. A trip to Ferrara, Bologna, or Verona,( Just to name a few) are closer than you think.......
Corte Spinata is the perfect base for enjoying Italian nature and culture. Our apartments are ideal for truly relaxing: snoozing, reading, looking at the internet, cycling along the river Po, fishing, playing in the open fields or pottering around the vegetable garden.
