Vacation Rental Property
All rooms and apartments are situated at the main farmhouse on a hilltop 219 metres (689 feet) above sea level about 1.5 miles from the village of Castelnuovo Belbo [near Nizza Monferrato]. This commanding position provides views over rolling hills covered in fertile vineyards. Dotted between the vineyards are orchards and woods. This natural habitat attracts wildlife and it is home to deer, martens, pheasants, and the occasional boar. On clear days the vista also rewards viewers with a stunning panorama of the Alps including the famous peaks of Mt. Rosa, Mt. Bianco (Mont Blanc), the Matterhorn and Mt. Viso. The environmentally friendly salt water pool has been carefully situated to make the most of the generous views. It's a picture postcard scene that rarely disappoints.
Following are the standard accommodation options, though your hosts always endeavour to meet your specific needs – just ask. Choose between self catering apartments or B&B rooms with en-suite bathrooms.
