Antica Cantina Emilia is a charming country house immersed in the lush green hills of Rosalì, just minutes from Reggio Calabria. Originally built in 1915 as a wine cellar for local landowners, the property was acquired in 1993 by Emilia and her husband Pino. Over the years, they have lovingly restored it, preserving its original charm, authentic atmosphere, and the timeless elegance of a traditional country estate.
Today, Antica Cantina Emilia is a welcoming and private retreat, perfect for those seeking a holiday in Calabria defined by relaxation, nature, wellness, and local culinary traditions. Surrounded by organic crops, gardens, and breathtaking views, the country house offers an intimate and authentic experience—tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet conveniently located to reach Reggio Calabria, the sea, Aspromonte, and the historic villages of the Area Grecanica.
The property retains the warmth of a traditional home, featuring tastefully decorated interiors, refined details, and spaces designed for guest comfort in every season. It is the ideal choice for couples, families, or small groups looking for a relaxing stay that blends countryside tranquility with the sea, culture, and Calabrian traditions.
