Farmhouses in the Emilia Romagna

I can't seem to find too many posts for the Emilia Romagna region outside Bologna but my husband and I are looking for a farmhouse (or B&B) for our September stay. We've found some great looking ones on B&B Planet but personal recommendations go a long way.

Does anyone have one?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the recommendation! I assume you stayed there and enjoyed it?

I will definitely look into this option.

You can find farm houses and make reservations at http://en.agriturismo.com/

Farms are relatively small in Italy, and farmers have found that apartments and rooms are great secondary sources of income.
In many areas, virtually every farm has agriturismo accommodations.
We spent 4 nights in one in Chianti and found them to be great places from which to do day trips in by rental car.
