About this property

Eco-Villa with garden and swimming pool UNESCO Heritage area

Located in Govone, centrally situated within the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato region—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a renowned destination for nature, food, and wine tourism— we offer a spacious, detached villa built in the late 19th century and surrounded by a splendid park/garden of approximately 2,000 square metres. Renovated in 2013 to include four bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, it is fully equipped with every amenity and comfort. In 2021, we carried out energy-efficiency upgrades, including a second solar system with storage, a new hybrid boiler with a 500-liter storage tank, and new windows and doors.
Govone is located ten minutes from Alba and the Langhe, as well as from Asti and the Monferrato (UNESCO sites), and is dominated by the Castle, one of the most beautiful Savoy residences in Piedmont, which is also an UNESCO World Heritage Site. On clear days, from the garden looking towards the northwest, you can enjoy a view of the entire Alpine range. The in-ground, brick-built swimming pool offers a priceless opportunity for relaxation. The house is furnished with practicality and care; air conditioning is installed and available as an option in all upstairs bedrooms. The kitchen is fully equipped. By 2026, there will be further improvements, including new outdoor facilities with a permanent dining area and better lighting. We look forward to welcoming you.

Lovely view

Our big family had a nice stay during two weeks. The house was very functional and the owner was easy to contact. Govone is a nice village with restaurants cantinas for tasting and this house is situated on top with a spectacular view over the area with wine fields and hazel nut trees and in clear days you could see the sun go down behind the alps.

Nice villa with a garden very close to the village.

The villa has a great garden. Part of the garden was unavailable as there were works for a pool. It is very nicely located in the Piedmont area. Very close to the Govone village and only 40-50 mins drive from Alba, Barolo ad other nice villages. It is good for a large group as all rooms are upstairs and there are 3 bathrooms which make things easier at peak times.

I understand Irene disappointment for the ongoing works for the pool but unfortunately I could not control a number of factors that delayed the construction process making part of the garden unavailable and a bit messy.Also ants were a bit too active and invasive..but ..well that is the country side nature..Still I want to point out that we are located in the historical center of Govone..(not very close to it) 200 m from the Castle Park and equidistant from Asti and Alba which are 15km away..only a 15 minutes drive.

Nice house in a pleasant place!

Govone Beautiful location -one of the most cute towns in the area. Not too noisy as Alba and Asti and not too dead as tens of other small towns -Govone is just perfect. There is a pharmacy, bakery, supermarket. On Wednesdays, there is a market near the castle, offering good choise of cheeses and fruits. The castle is worth visiting, the weekend bar near the castle has the most tasty gelato in the area and also there are fine facilities for a baby toplay -a sandbox, swings and a slide. As to the house itself -it is very comfortable, well maintained, and clean. The kitchen has all you need -a coffee machine, a kettle, a dishwasher, all plates and pans that you can imagine. The rooms are very big and nicely decorated. The garden worth to be mentioned separately - not just because it is full if roses, irises, rododendrons and lavender, good planned and maintained but also because it has such a stunning view to Alps and valley that you can spend all day there, relaxing in a chaise-longue, drinking superb wine bought in a local shop... The owner is very friendly and hostile. He loves and treats children well so our baby son called him a granny:) He and his beautiful wife Yuko made us a nice welcome dinner of local food, and I predict that one day when they open a restaurant there, it becomes very popular thanks to Filippo's talent to cook cream caramel! We spent one month there.Enjoyed every day in Filippo's house. We recommend it to everybody, especially for families with kids as it is a perfect place for them!

Un buon inizio con una spiacevole sorpresa finale

Sulla casa nulla dire, la proprietà corrisponde alla descrizione e alle informazioni ricevute in precedenza dal signor Filippo. Consiglio però di redigere un inventario degli oggetti della casa con il proprio valore prima di sottoscrivere il contratto. Accidentalmente è stato rotto da parte nostra una struttura di un divano letto Ikea. Il danno è stato da noi riconosciuto e sicuramente eravamo d’accordo nel rimborsare il signor Filippo. Peccato che si è trattenuto un valore pari a cinque volte il valore a nuovo del letto, insinuando la nostra non buona fede utilizzando anche parole offensive nei nostri confronti. Gli incidenti possono capitare e si possono risolvere in modo onesto!!! Speriamo che Vrbo possa intervenire nel tutelare non solo le proprietà ma anche gli inquilini!! Un po’ meno arroganza e un po’ più di umiltà!!

Grazie per la simpatica recensione. Il vostro comportamento e` stato inqualificabile. Tentare di nascondere i danni da voi procurati e` stato a dir poco meschino. Il costo addebitato e` stato giustificato da fatture come da VOI richiesto. Ergo le sue illazioni su mie comportamenti disonesti sono illegittime e diffamatorie e passibili di azione legale. Non c`e` molto da discutere..Per non parlare del vostro comportamento nei confronti delle legittime rimostranze del vicinato per i vostri rumori molesti fino a notte inoltrata dei tuffi vestiti in piscina nonostante vi fosse stato chiaramente spiegato che la proprieta` non era adatta a rave party e questo fin dai primi contatti . Esperienza pessima.

Thank you Wouter for your feedback . I have to disagree with your statement concerning the heating / air-conditioning surcharge.

MAGNIFICENT PROPERTY

Dealing with Filippo is a real pleasure. He responds to emails quickly and provides you with all the information you will need for an enjoyable stay at the villa. The views from the villa over the valley with the Alps in the distance are spectacular. The villa itself is magnificent and the kitchen is better equipped than any kitchen I’ve ever seen in a rental property. There’s adequate hot water and good water pressure. The property is very quiet. Within 175 m of the property is a pharmacy, restaurant/pizzeria, bakery, bar and a free public parking area. In less than a five minute drive is a hardware store and grocery store. I mentioned the free public parking area because even though the website says that there is parking on the property the entrance is so narrow that only a very small car could possibly get on to the property. There is plenty of parking across the street from the villa but I chose to park at the public parking area. If you decide to park in the public parking area you cannot park there on Tuesday nights because there’s a market early Wednesday morning. There are only a few minor negatives about the property. First of all, there are no hooks in the bathrooms. We found this to be very irritating. Also in one of the bathrooms the only lighting is around the mirror. During the day this is okay but at night it is like a dungeon. One word of advice to anyone staying at the villa. Bring shoes that you can easily slip on and off. The reason I say this is that there are no bathrooms on the ground floor and you have to go up a set of stairs to get to the bathrooms. The stairs are carpeted with light carpeting and Filippo requests that you do not wear your street shoes on this carpet (he provides plenty of slippers). If you stop in during the day to either drop something off or pick something up and you want to go to the bathroom, you have to take your shoes off. Unfortunately, all I had were hiking boots and to unlace and relace these boots got to be a real irritant. So, make sure you wear slip on shoes. We had a very enjoyable stay and would love to go back.

Eric thanks for your positive feed back.As per your suggestion we already installed an extra led light and we will sure put a few more hanging hooks in the bathrooms. I don't understand what you mean by there is no bathroom on the ground floor. We do have a bathroom on the ground floor ( refurbished in 2014) which serves the room downstairs when occupied but can be used by anybody . As per the shoes policy we have unfortunately no alternative to keep cleanness and hygiene to the highest standard. Nevertheless I will put a few outdoor sandals for the use of customers also for pool use....and we will wait for you next time but with your loafer :).

Wonderful and Amazing

1st Filippo was gracious and showed us around the property and explained everything in and around the house. The house was very clean and comfortable. We hired Filippo to drive to several wineries for our group and saved us, I am sure several times to not get lost. After each of our day trips we enjoyed the back seating to enjoy our cheeses and wines and relax with the views of to a distance. Filippo was also very helpful in recommending restaurants for dinners. They were amazing and unique and very local cuisine. We would without a doubt book this property again when in the area.

Wir fühlten uns wie im siebten Himmel

Die Lage von Govone zwischen Asti und Alba ist ideal um das Piemont zu erkunden. Der Ort ist sehr nett, es gibt leckre günstige Pizza - nur das Gebäck vom Becker morgens (Croissants, etc.) ist echt trocken... Das Haus liegt mitten im Ort (man kann also alles erlaufen), trotzdem ruhig und hat einen unglaublich traumhaften Ausblick auf die Landschaft. Ein wahrer Paradiesgarten. Es war wie im Openair Naturkino. Der Pool nagelneu, sehr schön mit Liegen und Stühlen und Sonnenschirmen. Es gab eine Lounge-Garnitur mit Tisch, zwei Sesseln und und einer Bank, die wir vor unser Optenair Kino platziert haben. Außerdem gab es drei kleine Tische, die wir zu einer großen Tafel aneinander gestellt haben und dazu ca. 8-10 Klappstühle. Also genug auch für eine große Runde. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Alles da was man braucht (Teller, Gläser, Tassen, Besteck, Töpfe, Bretter, diverseste Küchenmaschinen, Spülmaschine, Gasherd, Mirowelle, großer Kühlschrank, Gefrierschrank, Handtücher, teilweise Gewürze, Öl, etc.). Wir haben viel gekocht. Es gibt eine Waschmaschine und Trockner, die wir aber nicht gebraucht haben. Ein großes Wohnzimmer mit zahlreichen Tischen und Stühlen (wenn man drinnen essen möchte), Fernseher mit internationalen Sendern, Spiele, Kamin. Es gibt daneben noch ein Wohnzimmer, in dem ein Computer steht, den man benutzen darf. Außerdem ein Klavier. Im Haus ist WLAN was allerdings nur im Erdgeschoss richtig gut funktioniert. Im ersten Stock wird es etwas schwach. Oben sind vier Schlafzimmer. Zwei davon jeweils separat gelegen mit eigenem Bad. Zwei weitere Schalfzimmer teilen sich ein Bad. Das war für uns mit kleinem Kind z.B. ideal. Die Zimmer sind mit Klimaanlage ausgestattet. Die kann man tagsüber laufen lassen und kann dann Nachts bei guter Temparatur schlafen. Die Bäder sind unterschiedlich ausgestattet teils mit Badewanne, teils mit Dusche. Kein super Luxus, aber alles modern und sauber. Das Licht im Bad könnte heller sein. Im ersten Stock ist Teppich, weshalb man auch nicht mit Schuhen nach oben darf. War für uns kein Problem. Macht das ganze gemühtlicher als mit Fliesen. Überhaupt ist alles geschmackvoll gestaltet, nicht luxuriös aber gemütlich und alles da was man braucht. Sauber und ordentlich. Das Entscheidende ist aber der geniale Garten mit Pool und Traumblick. Filippo ist unglaublich nett und unkompliziert. Reagiert innerhalb kürzester Zeit wenn man ihn anmailt oder eine sms schickt. Er gibt gute Tipps und ist sehr hilfsbereit. Danke

A holiday with a bittersweet aftertaste

Filippo, Although our holiday turned out great in the end, the days leading up to it were some of the most disturbing ones ever and as such heavily reflect on my review. You contacted me 1 week before arriving, wanting to come back on an agreement made 4 months before on the number of rooms being readied, because you misread one of my emails. An email I sent in order to avoid the discussion we would end up having after all. The worst part wasn't even that we would have to pay for an extra room, but that at some point you started quoting parts from a rental contract which I couldn't find in the version I downloaded when booking. You tried to make it look as if it was my fault, expecting me to assume things from the contract, which again I asked and got your confirmation on 4 months before. So I downloaded the contract again and it turned out that it was changed on those exact parts of our agreement you wanted to come back on, also adding a whole list of extra charges for the pool and airco/heating. When I kept stating that changing the contract and using this against us now was unacceptable, you made a statement for which I'll never forgive you and I quote: 'Still your contract does not include the use of a pool.. if you want to go that way'. To my understanding you alluded here that you'd refuse us access to the pool. I suppose a threat being made since the pool wasn't built yet when we booked and as such not being mentioned in the original rental contract. However from the first contact we had it was made very clear the pool was imperative for us having two young children (3 and 5). You guaranteeing several times the pool would be ready and giving us flexible cancellation arrangements in case it wouldn't be, proves to me it was an integral part of the agreement and agreed price. You making this statement made me very upset, especially because it would impact my children's holiday. Although we got the number of rooms initially agreed upon and was left with a choice, I agreed paying extra for the airco to avoid further discussions. To top it all off, when leaving you asked me to write an 'excellent' review on HomeAway and one other major travel website, the latter acting as if I stayed at your property as a B&B. Not sure what made you think I would do that given the discussions we had and when doing so putting my own credibility at risk. So considering all of the above, no thank you note from us, but it could have been very much different. Thomas

Nette Lage, schöne Aussicht, ideal für Ausflüge zu den wichtigsten Orten im Piemont

Wir - 5 Erwachsene/Männer - hatten das Haus gemietet, bei der Anreise stellten wir fest, eigentlich bietet der Eigentümer hier einzelne Zimmer als B&B an, insofern hatten wir anfänglich auch nicht wie gehofft die das ganze Haus zur Verfügung und sollten uns auf nur 3 statt der avisierten 5 Schlafzimmer verteilen. Nach längerer Diskussion mit dem (netten) Vermieter war dieser bereit noch ein weiteres Schlafzimmer freizugeben. Die Ausstattung ist recht umfangreich, leider gab es im sonst recht großzügigen Garten kein Grill, der Vermieter meinte dazu, wir dürften gerne ein offenes Feuer im Garten machen - nun dies haben wir nicht riskiert. Kleiner Nachgeschmack: nachträglich wurden uns noch 35 Euro an der Kaution abgezogen, dies für einen uralten Plasikstuhl welcher durch langes Stehen in der Sonne schon etwas mitgenommen aussah und beim ersten Sitzen zusammen brach ;-), das Opfer wog immerhin 75 KG...

Thank you for your comments Stephan. As per your remarks here comes my answer 1) We clearly state in our rental agreement downloadable from Homeway web site that only the room required by the number of guest will be readied. 2) Its not stated anywhere that we have a grill. There is a brick oven for pizza that with the due precaution can be used to cook meat. 3) The long chair was in perfect condition beside a slight decoloring due to sun exposure. The price of the long chair( SCAB brand the best in Italy for PVC outdoor product) its 85 euro. I only charged 35. 4) I never suggested you to make an open fire..it was just a joke :) It would have been also useful to know that you were not couple indeed but 5 men. I would had advised for extra room that would have been charged as per the above mentioned rental agreement. Thank you for your positive comments overall and I hope you will visit again next year with a lot of improvements.

Charming And Spacious In A Beautiful Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property and wouldn’t hesitate to recommended it as a base for explore Piedmont. The house is spacious and well appointed, with one of the best equipped kitchens we have encountered on our travels. You can truly cook a real meal here! The set-up of the bedrooms makes it very easy to travel with a group of friends, as nearly all the rooms are private and have modern en suite baths. I have a bad back, so bad mattresses can be a nightmare for me – these were extremely comfortable, with nice linens and plenty of blankets. We were here in winter, so didn’t get to use the outdoor space, but the views and the light pouring in the large windows was beautiful, so I can only imagine how lovely it would be in spring. Along those lines – some houses we’ve rented in winter are like ice boxes, but the heat and hot water here worked very well and we were always comfortable. The owner was easy to communicate with and very responsive to inquiries. The town of Govone is small, so it was a little difficult to obtain groceries on the spot, but that just takes a little planning. The bakery just a few steps up the road more than made up! It was the perfect house for us on our trip to Italy. Highly recommended!

About the host

Hosted by Filippo

Host profile image
Hello my name is Filippo and she is my wife Yuko I'm an airline pilot working abroad since many years. We are renting our property in Italy to selected guests.The house is comfortable and pleasant and strategically located at center of the UNESCO heritage area. The privacy is total due to the elevated position and the garden / park but all services are at walking distance. Soon we will realize a stunning pool facing the Alpine Arc.

Why they chose this property

We lived abroad for the last 8 years and in Istanbul for the last 4 years

What makes this property unique

The house was bought my father and MD in the 70s from an old patient. It was renovated at different times the last in 2011 when we made three bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and a new kitchen.The position is perfect and for sure is one the best real estate property of the area.
