About this property

Luxurious, spacious detached country house, splendid views, private pool

This charming restored farmhouse is located in the 'frazione' of Annunziata, part of the vivid village of Costigliole d'Asti. It enjoys splendid views over the Tanaro river valley. The extraordinary sunsets can be watched from the large terrace on the west, with the hilltop villages and ridges on the other side of the river clearly visible. At clear days you can also see the snowy Alpine mountains with the Monviso.

The quietly located farmhouse is at an elevated position, about 300 mts above sea level, and surrounded by its own large garden with different trees, hazelnut groves and vineyards. On the terrain there are two large chestnut trees for the necessary shade during summertime. The house has been renovated to a high standard maintaining many original features and using natural and local materials. It is furnished with both antique and modern furniture and has the advantage of being built in stone which makes it warm in winter and cool in the summer.

Located at the back of the house (privacy) is an infinity swimming pool of 10 x 5 meters. It is 140 cm deep and has furnished terraces on three sides (daybeds, beach umbrella's) including a shower. The pool is illuminated at night (see picture) and can be closed by a gate. Bath towels are provided, as well as bedlinen and towels.

Free WiFi (also at the pool) and a 4K Smart TV with Google Chromecast are at your disposal. You can listen to your own favorite music by connecting your device to the wireless and portable Bose speaker.

On the ground floor there is a large garage and entrance to the living space of the house. The spacious hall leads to the fully equipped kitchen (incl. dishwasher, washing machine and large fridge) with direct access to the terrace, the downstairs bathroom (with shower), the dining room and cosy living area that are in open connection with each other. In the hall is also the beautiful double staircase in luserna stone that leads to the first floor.

On the first floor there are three very spacious bedrooms. The first has a double bed (sleeps 2), the second has a double bed + double sofa bed (sleeps 2 + 2) and the third has 2 single beds (sleeps 2) and a baby cot. There is plenty of storage space available. On this floor there are two fully equipped bathrooms, one with a bath and its own balcony with views towards the Alps. All bathrooms are supplied with soap and hairdryer. Bedlinen and towels are provided.

The terrace on the westside of the house measures about 80 sqm and is partly covered. It can be entered from the garden or directly from the living room. On the terrace you will find a large dining table with 8 chairs as well as a luxury lounge sofa. This makes the terrace perfect for eating outside (BBQ available) and relax with friends and family.

From the house you can take many quiet country walks along the small country lanes. Also cycling in the area is very nice. For that purpose there are 2 electro-mountainbikes available at the house; these can be rented separately. The area is very suitable fort hiking and cycling trips; not only in summer, but also in spring and autumn. During wintertime it's possible to go skiing in the Mondoleski area, which is about a 1,5 hours drive from the house.

The house is close to the well known historical towns of Alba and Asti (both within 20 minutes by car) and a perfect base to discover the Unesco world heritage in Piemonte. Asti is famous for its horse-event Palio (in September) and for the well known fresh-sweet dessert wine Moscato d'Asti. Alba is a medieval town full of towers and arcades, famous for its truffle fairs. Other nearby places of interest are Barolo (where the famous wine originates), the picturesque village of Neive, the vivid Nizza Monferrato (home of Barbera wine, rapidly becoming more popular) and the Roman town of Acqui Terme with its thermal sources. The beautiful city of Turin, which is full of museums, ancient buildings and historic cafes, is located about 70 km away and can also be reached by train from the railway station of Asti. Other nearby big cities are Milano and Genova (harbour). The sea and the coast of Liguria are about 100 km, as is the nearest ski-resort (MondoleSki).

In the nearby village of Costigliole d'Asti you can visit the special castle and the Italian Culinary Institute for Foreigners. The village has all services, such as supermarkets, bakery, butcher, cafe's/bars/pizzeria, a theatre, banks, garages and a variety of shops. And of course several good restaurants - like all villages in the neighborhood. The area is excellent for activities such as hiking, horse riding, tennis, golf, swimming, visits to museums and concerts. In the summer the area is alive with local festivals based on food and wine. The area is renowned for its food – specialties include truffles, chocolate, hazelnuts, 'vitello tonnato' and other well-known dishes. And of course... the famous Piëmonte wines. Visits to local wineries or to small producers of cheese, salami or sweet delicacies are all possible.

Our local guide Roberta (she speaks English, Spanish and Italian) will welcome you at the house upon your arrival. During your stay she is available for answering your questions. Roberta is also your local tourist guide who offers truffle-hunting sessions, Italian cooking classes, wine tastings, hiking and fossils discovery tours and even helicopter flights.

The house can be rented per week, check-in and check-out is on Saturday.

Fantastic views and location
We have been renting holiday properties in Italy for over 20 years and this is one of the best villas we have stayed at. The views across the valley to the Alps are magnificent. The location is central to Asti, Alba and even Acqua Terme is not that far away. You will need a car. It’s a 5 minute drive or 6km walk round trip to Costigliole. It has all the amenities like supermarkets, restaurants, cafes etc. 6 adults stayed very comfortably in this 3 bedroom property. The bedrooms are big and serviced by 2 upstairs bathrooms, one with a built in shower and the other has a bath with hand held shower nozzle. The bathroom downstairs has a built in shower as well. We were a family group, so no trouble sharing the upstairs/downstairs showers. Downstairs also has kitchen, dining room and lounge, all big and bright. We never felt crowded in the property. Heating was really good with underfloor heating as well. Has a fireplace plus central heating. Would be an excellent winter rental for Christmas. Villa well decked out. Kitchen fully equipped but could do with a toaster and microwave (I think the owner fixing this). Nice furniture throughout, including outdoor furniture on the deck and a BBQ. High quality property. It’s big, plenty of room for a family, good wifi and Netflix, high quality HD TV, great location, outdoor dining areas, and big views. Jeen the owner was prompt and a pleasure to deal with. We would have no hesitation in booking this property again and look forward to returning.

Tolles Haus mit fantastischer Aussicht
Mit 3 Paaren hatten wir einen tollen Aufenthalt in einem sehr großzügigen, sauberen und geschmackvoll eingerichteten Haus. Jeder hatte sein eigenes Badezimmer und sehr große Schlafzimmer mit guten Betten. Der Pool und die Aussicht sind beeindruckend, uns hat es an nichts gefehlt, wir würden das Haus wieder buchen. Die Absprachen mit Jeen waren schnell und unkompliziert, alles bestens!

Our family consists of Esther, myself, our son Jelke (2006). We live in the city of Arnhem, in the eastern part of The Netherlands and love to travel, especially to Italy. We fell in love with Piëmonte many years ago and like to share our experiences with other people.

Why they chose this property

Our house is at a superb location with excellent views. Furthermore the house is very comfortable and offers a lot of space, both in- and outdoors. Private use of the beautiful infinity pool. Easy reachable and close to all necessary services, excellent restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Also close to well known cities like Alba, Asti and Aqui Terme, the triangle that is the heart of the Unesco World Heritage area of Piemonte. Larger nearby cities are Torino, Milano and Genua. Coast and skiing at appr. 1,5 hours drive.

What makes this property unique

The house is very private and has incredible views, not only from the large terrace but also form the infinity pool. You can watch the spectacular sunset every evening, not one of them is the same! Private pool, free WiFi, smart TV with Chromecast, mobile Bose speaker. And of course our local host Roberta!
