La Celeste Galeria - Bed & Breakfast in Lombardy
Strada Francesco Rismondo, 2, 46100 Mantova
Lombardy,
Italia
Step inside this quietly elegant 18th-century villa and you're met with soft colours, museum-worthy details, and a real sense of calm. Veronica, who lives here with her family, will welcome you like an old friend.
There are only three rooms, all en suite – two doubles and one that can sleep four – tucked upstairs or beneath the rafters, all thoughtfully styled with Renaissance touches, big beds and serene views. Downstairs, there’s a cosy fire for cooler evenings and space to gather or retreat. Come summer, the garden and infinity pool take centre stage, with shaded spots and sun beds for long, lazy afternoons.
Breakfasts are a daily highlight: generous wooden boards laden with Veronica’s homemade cakes and savoury treats served in the light-filled dining room or out on the veranda. If guests are around, Veronica might invite you to share a meal of traditional Mantuan dishes around the communal table.
