Who we are

An ancient courtyard, the warmth of stone and exposed wooden beams; a careful recovery of the rural architectural heritage of the early 1700s; this is the setting of Corte Gambino , the farmhouse nestled in the Mantuan plain near the Po, about fifteen kilometers from the art city of Mantua. The tranquility of the place and the intimacy of the rooms transform the living room  in an unforgettable relaxing break.  

 

The beating heart of the farmhouse is Simona, who inherited her passion for the land and its fruits from her father, mother, uncle and aunt. Was  1985 when the Cecchin family crowns the dream of a lifetime and moves to Corte Nuova and it will be right here, in the court built with the sweat of the brow, that Simona is asked to marry by Giovanni, a country boy who dreams of one day to have his own company: that day was not long in coming and after several ups and downs in June 2000 the deed was signed, now known as Corte Gambino. In the meantime Simona and Giovanni got married and soon Marika and Matilde are born: pure elixir of good humor on the farm.

After years of hard restoration work, today Corte Gambino has been transformed into a splendid country court where time seems to have stopped and where the succession of the seasons creates scenarios of other times. The particularly careful renovation has made it possible to obtain highly comfortable spaces, equipped with underfloor heating with a renewable energy boiler. Characteristic is the portico and the welcoming tavern, the ideal place to spend pleasant evenings in the company of friends, tasty typical products and characteristic atmosphere wines.
