Antica casaforte testimone di grandi leggende, Cascina Roland deve il suo nome al masso erratico accanto alle sue mura, spaccato di netto in due parti: si narra che fu tagliato dalla magica spada Durlindana del paladino Orlando.

Ristorante e hotel attrezzato con officina per le biciclette, ospita nei suoi pressi una delle aree sosta del progetto "Via Francigena for all" realizzate per offrire riparo e punto ricarica bici o carrozzina elettronica e un kit essenziale per la riparazione delle bici.
