Accommodation in Rovigo – Veneto, Italy – by knowital.com

This accommodation in Rovigo is a delightful way to spend your vacation in Veneto, Italy. Agriturismo Le Clementine, brought to you by knowital.com, is all about local food, beautiful countryside, traditional ways, and a relaxing atmosphere.

Spend days rich in tradition with meals of typical local dishes, with produce of the farm and personally prepared by Luciana Clementina. And why not wake up in the morning and enjoy a good breakfast in the natural setting of the garden full of the scents of medicinal herbs and flowers.

The pleasing architecture of the farmhouse, built in 1822 and restructured at the beginning of the 20th century, provides an excellent location. First-class service is the keynote of this agriturismo and much appreciated by the guests of Le Clementine.

Le Clementine is a family business run in keeping with local customs, and a visit here is a unique and particular way to appreciate the beauty of the place, the respect for our animals and the homely traditions. The farmhouse offers comfortable rooms, furnished in an appropriate style where the pleasing atmosphere lends it a special charm. A holiday with a novel flavour will give our guests the opportunity of breaking completely with the daily routine. The appeal of the surroundings makes Le Clementine a haven particularly suited to lovers of nature, a calm ambience under the auspices of warm hospitality.

Because of its strategic location, (30km from Ferrara, 65km from Mantua, 40km from Verona and Adria, 40km from Padua, 80km from Venice) Le Clementine represents the ideal starting point for guided tours of the artistic centres (Palladian villas, National Etruscan-Greek-Roman Museum), visits to health resorts (Abano Terme 30km) and areas of interesting habitat (Po Delta).

Guests who sit at our tables for the first time will immediately notice the genuine, simple type of food the Polesine region offers, food which is rich in flavours and new fragrances, beginning with the home-made bread and the rich Pinza Onta which is often prepared in winter. The meal starts with an antipasto of salami prepared from pork, raised on the farm, accompanied by vegetables preserved in vinegar or sweet and sour. First courses vary from home made pasta with a sauce of either vegetables or seasonal meats (tastasale). There is tortelloni, a large type of ravioli filled with a stuffing of capon, pumpkin or pigeon. There is a choice of baked pasta dishes or thick soups, such as pasta and bean, or soups made with vegetables cooked in the oven. We are proud to offer a plentiful and rich choice of main courses, the result of the development of the so-called ‘poor’ dishes, consisting of baked vegetables of which the region has a great variety, or meat and game such as rabbit, capon, guinea fowl and duck. Luciana’s pride is her speciality, braised duck, which was awarded the 1999-2000 International Golden Cook Prize. None of the desserts should be missed, from the strudel (from an 1877 recipe of Granny Clementine) to fruit tarts made with selected jams (try the caramelised water melon jam), or tagliatelle cake. The restaurant seats 60.
