Wonderful!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Canelli with Brian and Diane at their rustic farmhouse in the vineyards. The house is large with plenty of space for a large family or group. The bedrooms are spacious with comfortable beds and beautiful views. The kitchen is very well equipped. Diane is quite the cook and she stocks the kitchen accordingly. There are two family rooms, one stocked with lots of games and plenty of books. The 2nd family room is filled with toys, children’s books and games. My boys were quite happy. The grounds are stunning, the views and hiking direct from the door are great. The property is fenced in, so the kids can run freely without stress. Brian and Diane are outstanding hosts, provide lots of insight of things to do in the area and good recommendations for excursions and dining. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Villa , Exceptional Views. A true Haven , so peaceful. Thank you Dianne & Brian .
We have just returned from a truly fantastic week in Cascina Cavolpi. A beautiful villa with absolutely amazing views. Dianne & Brian are exceptionally friendly hosts . We really enjoyed sampling some of their own wine while spending some very relaxing evening s having dinner overlooking the valley..Canelli itself is a 5 minute drive away ,we’re we found lots of little bars and restaurants. It has a weekly market selling fresh fruit, veg & fish , clothes and to my delight some very nice Italian leather sandals . On one of the days we took a trip to Asti , a very large market . Lots to see , definitely worth a trip. It is safe to say that we have definitely fallen in love with Canelli and cannot wait to return to Cascina Cavolpi . Thank you Dianne &Brian xx

A perfect few days
This is our second visit to Cascina Cavolpi. It's such a peaceful place with stunning views with everything we could need. Brian and Dianne are the most perfect hosts and looked after us so well. A big, big thank you again and we couldn't recommend this villa more.

Hospitality on high .
Half way up a hillside, so, wonderful views, sunsets and sense of space . The steep roads you get used to! Dianne and Brian greet you with drinks and canapés and send you off with the same hospitality. In between they are discreetly present for whenever you have a query or need assistance. Perfect hosts. The house is also spacious with a lot of elegant detail and thoughtful extras. No wifi or TV - a plus when you want to really get away from it all - but plenty of DVDs for adults and children, games and books. One extra room is solely equipped for children.Our children spent a lot of time in the pool and we also visited Canelli just down the hill for shopping at Simply and Lidl, beautiful Asti and Aqui Terme on market day. My only regret - that we didn't have the luck to spot the bee eater in their garden.
