Palazzo Filagni
The Palazzo Filagni B&B is in a quiet and isolate area of Valmozzola, in the province of Parma. The hamlet called Filagni, is composed of a few houses where, amongst the lush green fields and woods, stands this ancient house dating back to the Longobard period. The name Filagni derives from the dialect filàgn, a term formerly used by local people to refer to vines which were there. The history of this building derives in all likelihood from the Este family Pallavicino, who owned it until the second half of the fifteenth century, and then passed in the sixteenth century to the Farnese family, afterwards to the famous Dukes of Parma and then the to Sforza Fogliani of Piacenza who held the property until 1874, when they sold the property to the Counts Pettenati from Casacca, near Berceto. The whole building was bought in the nineties by the surveyor Ilario Mussi who, thanks to a patient and focused recovery plan, restored it to its original splendor. The Palace still has old details like an ancient court, a wood stove, an old well, the old cellars with vaulted ceilings and the old barn now converted into a lovely apartment for holidays. The B&B boasts a magnificent view over the valley of the River Taro just a few minutes far from Berceto and Borgo Val di Taro. It is just 2 kilometers from the A15 motorway exit, therefore it has a strategic position, since it is halfway the route Parma-La Spezia, on the border with Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna.

Ho trascorso un weekend presso Palazzo Filagni con un gruppo di amici. Ci siamo trovati benissimo! Caterina è stata da subito molto disponibile e cordiale. Le camere erano belle, caratteristiche,molto accoglienti e pulite. Abbiamo passato un piacevole soggiorno di relax dove, oltre alla piscina, ci siam dedicati ad una grigliata di carne utilizzando l’angolo barbacue del B&B. Inutile ripetermi…Consigliato e un luogo in cui tornare!
Anche quest’anno ben contenti di aver soggiornato ai Filagni per rilassarci in piscina e goderci un po’ di fresco. Complimenti per il servizio ed un grosso abbraccio a Caterina.
What a beautiful b&b you run! We had a very pleasant stay, only for one night, because we were on our way to Tuscany. But we won’t forget your kindness, the nice atmosphere and very beautiful house. We will come back, and take some more time!
Hallo Katarina, we hadden een fantasische tijd in jouw B&B Het is er rustig, heel mooi, prachtige kamers en een lekker ontbijt. We komen zeker nog een keertje terug en van ons krijg je alsvast een dikke 10/10.
Beste eigenaars, We waren diep ontroerd over uw B&B. We waren op doorreis en zagen bij toeval jullie bordje met verwijzing van B&B. We moesten overnachten en gingen opzoek naar het pand. Onze verbazing was groot toen we jullie vonden. Een prachtige oude boerderij geheel gerestaureerd. We hebben daar een onvergetelijke nacht door gebracht, rust en stijl.
La sig.na Caterina è gentile e cordiale.La camera è spaziosa ,pulita.L’ambiente è confortevole e di buon gusto! La colazione è super…Peccato che il soggiorno è durato solo 1gg. Grazie ci vediamo l’anno prossimo.
Thank you so much, Caterina, for an amazing stay at Palazzo Filagni. We had the most wonderful few days and could definitely have stayed another week at least! The beautiful setting of the Palazzo allowed for the perfect escape. We shall not be forgetting your delicious breakfast spreads in a hurry – nor the wine you so kindly shared with us on our last evening! Thank you for your kindness and generosity. I’m already looking forward to returning next year!
Salve! Grazie di tutto! Posto meraviglioso, accogliente e mozzafiato! Ci avete salvato in piena emergenza!
