Located on the Altavilla hill immediately behind Alba, the house is surrounded by hazelnut trees and vines that measure out the passing of the seasons on our farm with the changes in their colours.

A very old path running by here links Alba to the Barbaresco wine-growing area, and interesting archaeological Roman artefacts found not far off during the last century - in Regione Belnuovo - are now kept in Alba’s Eusebio Museum.

Today this path is marked on maps for walkers and cyclists, copies of which are available to guests, along with all the other tourist information relating to this area that can help make your stay as complete and enjoyable as possible.

Wine-tastings can be organized in the cellars of small local producers, and guests are welcome to watch - or even take part in - work on the farm.

We will be on hand to recommend interesting trips into the hills of the Langa, visiting old towns and villages, historical buildings, castles and fortresses, as well as pilgrimages for devotees of poetry and literature to the places made famous by the writers Cesare Pavese and Beppe Fenoglio.

Though breakfast is the only meal we cater for, there are plenty of restaurants and trattorias in the immediate neighbourhood serving the typical dishes of Piedmontese cuisine.
