Great place, friendly people and lovely swimming pool.
M. Punie (Belgium).
We really had a great time at your house and enjoyed the great lunches at Ristorante Da Fausto next door followed by digesting the lunch at the pool.
Family de Groot (the Netherlands).
What a great view from the terrace and kitchen and lovely open people. Your website brought us to great places, antique markets and restaurants in the neighbourhood. Great to have excellent beds, that's what one needs during a holiday.

About the owner
We discovered the Piemont 10 years ago and put our love for the Piemont finally into restoring this beautiful old farm house. After 2 years of hard work we now can enjoy our own place in the Piemont. Enjoy the views, the house, the pool and of course all the beautiful things the Piemont has.
The Piemonte offers not only great things for Summer but also for Spring and Autumn. Go wine tasting, visit the beautiful cities and small villages, go to truffel markets or visit Ligurian coast in Spring. On our website you find our favourite restaurants, things to do and info on the markets and antique markets in the region.

Why the owner chose a home in this location
The area is our favorite part of Italy, it is pure and still the real Italy. It has great wines, great food, great and friendly people and lovely weather. Four seasons with all of them having typical seasonal dishes that fit the top Piemont wines.
Our house has the best of both worlds, close to restaurants and the beautiful city Acqui Terme but in a quiet spot with beautiful views and deers in the field in the morning.
