Accommodations
The villa offers two types of
accommodation, 4 bed and breakfast rooms and two self-contained apartments (one
bedroom and two bedrooms).
The B&B rooms are on the first floor and elegantly furnished with
traditional Piedmont farmhouse carved wood and marble top furniture. Each room
has a French window leading onto a private balcony with vistas of the
surrounding woods and hills, and its own bathroom complete with bathtub/shower
combination. 3 rooms have double (queen size) beds, and 1 room has two singles.
One set of rooms has an adjoining door for family use, and one of these beds
can be used as a double or split into two singles. An additional single bed can
be provided for the larger rooms.
B&B guests have their own large salon
d'hospiti (guest lounge), with big picture windows facing the sun deck, perfect
for relaxing, reading, watching TV, or enjoying a glass of vino. The salon has
a library including local travel maps and information as well as a satellite TV
set. For guests in early spring and late fall, a wood stove provides a cozy and
warm corner.
The apartments are on the ground floor
with their own separate entrances in the back and a portico/veranda facing the
vineyards and view deck. Each apartment has a kitchen and living room including
complete cooking and dining utensils, a TV, a spacious bathroom with
bathtub/shower and furnished in the same traditional Piedmont style as the
rooms. One apartment has a bedroom with a queen size bed and a twin sofa-bed in
the living room; the other has two bedrooms, one with queen and one with a
combo queen/two single beds and a divan in the living room.

Meals are served in the main banquet room of the original house adjoining
the salon d'hospiti. Breakfast is a buffet continental style (cooked breakfast
on request). Dinner (on request) is a 4 course set-menu and our house wine is
included, or we have a small selection of a la carte local wines.
Guests can use the main laundry room for their own washing and ironing, or
we can arrange for a laundry service in Asti.
The villa does not have individual guest phones; Guests can use the house
phone or fax or Internet hook-up for a small service fee.
The villa is about two kilometres from the main road to Asti, and there is a
bus service. We can arrange to drop and pickup guests to Asti, fitting in with
the working farm schedule, but having a rent-car/or arranging
tours is a must for touring the area.
