The COTTAGE B&B lies in CASARSA della DELIZIA, a countryside village,
which is the birthplace of writer/poet Pier Paolo Pasolini, in an area rich in vineyards and wineries and centrally located to reach, by car or train, all the most interesting places of Friuli Venezia Giulia region, Venice and Eastern Veneto, as well as the borders of Austria and Slovenia, all within 80km.
CASARSA della DELIZIA is located 13 km from Pordenone and 35 km from Udine, two towns with pleasant and ancient historical centres.
FRIULI VENEZIA GIULIA is a small region but a great array of landscapes and places to visit
is waiting for you: you will never be too far from any place of interest!
In our town, you can visit the Family House of the great and tormented writer/poet/artist PIER PAOLO PASOLINI and maybe bring a rose to his tomb, located in the local cemetery and close to his mother’s tomb.
It is also possible to follow the PASOLINIAN ITINERARIES through the countryside and the beloved villages that have served as a backdrop and marked the life of young Pier Paolo.
If, instead, you are interested in wines, vineyards, and high-quality local cheeses and cured meats, you will find what you are looking for close by the Cottage, in our area (and in the region)!
Casarsa della Delizia is also the site of the great WINE and SPRING FESTIVAL: in 2024, the 76th edition will take place from April 24th to May 6th.
A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY: the small and charming historical centres
of SAN VITO al TAGLIAMENTO, VALVASONE, and CORDOVADO.
IN THE SURROUNDINGS: the imposing VILLA MANIN in Passariano, with its park, and the surprising benedictine ABBEY of SANTA MARIA in SYLVIS in Sesto al Reghena.
And then the famous airport of the FRECCE TRICOLORI in Rivolto,
SPILIMBERGO with its renowned Mosaic School, and MANIAGO with its Blade Museum.
SAN DANIELE del FRIULI is worth a visit, known especially for its raw ham, and also FAGAGNA and MORUZZO with their unexpected panoramas from the top of the gentle morainic hills.
From CASARSA della DELIZIA, you can reach LIGNANO BEACHES and the PIANCAVALLO MOUNTAINS/SKI SLOPES by car, both in about 45 minutes, the romantic LAKE of BARCIS,
the PRADIS CAVES, and characteristic villages such as POFFABRO and POLCENIGO.
