In our hills there are oak trees. You see them watching over the glades motionless and majestic where the vines do not reach. They are solitary and solemn trees but when you walk, if you slow your pace and stop to listen they have a thousand stories to tell you. Because they have been here forever and they know the secrets of the forest.
We called this dwelling Ca’ dal Rugal, oaks in the language of Oltrepò, because it is slightly detached from the others and from its windows you can hold the whole valley in your gaze. When evening is about to come you see the sun go down behind the Montecalvo Church and already the sunset is worth a vacation. And like the oaks this Ca’ has stories to tell, the old terracotta tiles, the salvaged furniture, the small fireplace that has always been in that wall and warmed a thousand peasant winters tell you.
Here at Rugal you must come here to stop for a while and catch your breath, just as you would stop to rest in the shade of a wise oak tree.

Each morning we bring you a basket of sweet and savory treats.

Because we enjoy to see our guests smiling but still showing signs of sleepiness, like children on a Christmas morning, we will cater breakfast to your doorstep. Our breakfast basket contains many goodies that will vary each day. Maybe a freshly baked apple pie or croissants just out of the oven … Local cold cuts or a few slices of salami, the best we have to offer and almost forgotton. And if you are a vegetarian, vegan or suffer food alergies, just let us know so we can adjust accordingly to find a suitable and equally perfect breakfast for you. But above all in that wicker basket you will find a bit of us, our love for hospitality, attention to detail, the small care that makes us different from everyone.
