La Bencontenta Frassanelle Venetia - north Italy
Overview
La Bencontenta is a traditional Venetian farmhouse on the estate of Frassanelle, situated on the border of the Euganean hills, only 20 km south-east of Padova. The house looks out onto the park of Frassanelle and the Euganean hills. It is surrounded by a private, delimited garden of 6000 m2. The garden has been carefully planted with an herb garden, roses, lilacs, iris and calendula. The trees are poplars, walnut and hazelnut, as well as a series of fruit trees - fig, cherry and apple. The house, which was fully restored in 2003, has 7 bedrooms on 3 floors (ground floor and 2 upper floors), a typical "loggia" in front of the house for al fresco meals, and a large private pool.

Guest reviews
Danke für Ihre Nachfrage bezüglich unseres Urlaubs in La Bencontenta. Wir
haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt, was hauptsächlich Saba zu verdanken ist,
die uns jeden Wunsch von den Augen abgelesen hat. Auch Frau Papafava war
sehr nett und hat wunderbar um uns gekümmert. Ich danke auch Ihnen für
die gute Vorbereitung - es ist alles so gewesen wie wir uns vorgestellt haben.

We are a very international group from Aberdeen in Scotland – French, Dutch, Scottish and English, here for a golfing holiday. We have found the house absolutely wonderful. Saba has been great and has taken great care of us. She cooked us a wonderful meal on our last night. Thanks Saba!!

Dear Francesca,
We arrived back from our honeymoon last week and after all the excitement of Italy it's been very difficult returning to work! We would both like to thank you so much for helping us make our wedding a truly memorable day not just for us but for all of our family & friends aswell. Many people have said it was the most perfect wedding they had been to!
Without your assistance (even down to the last details) it would not have come together as it did. Your recommendations for the caterers, florist, DJ and photographer were excellent; everyone was very friendly and did over and above what we expected.
I am so pleased with every decision that we came to.
Frassanelle is a beautiful estate and Bencontenta was the perfect venue for the wedding and for our friends and their children to spend the week together.
It more than catered for all of our needs wich meant that everybody was able to fully relax & enjoy themselves. We would recommend Bencontenta to anyone thinking of marrying in Italy . It is a very comfortable, relaxing & romantic location for a wedding. We're so pleased we found it!
I also wanted to mention how fantastic Saba is. I keep hearing from friends how helpful she was to everyone during our stay & on the wedding day. She is a lovely lady!
Kind regard
