Our services for a carefree stay
You’re off to a great start
A perfect way to start your holiday
Had a long and tiring day of travel? We know just how you feel. No worries! Our services are here to help. First is parking. We offer free private parking on the Cascina terrain for your convenience.
Second is getting settled. No stress, just unpack and relax. We say hello, we hand over the keys to your suite and let you unpack and fresh up. In the mean time we prepare an Italian welcome aperitivo.
Third is relaxing and unwinding whilst we get acquainted over welcome drinks and a snack. This is Italy! Your holiday has officially started.
Have a swim and relax poolside
Work on that perfect Italian tan
What is a summer holiday without a swimming pool? Exactly. Ours is 12m long, 4m wide and 1.4m deep and has a wonderful shallow end. Perfect for tanning and relaxing! There is also an outdoor shower to rinse off sun lotions before cooling down in the swimming pool.
Once you are in the pool you will understand what we mean with relax and enjoy. Sit on the tanning plate, a glass of wine at arms length enjoying the view. From the pool you have a view across the Monferrato Hills right onto the Alps.
Enjoy the sun, the water, the silence, the sounds of nature and the garden whilst you relax. Pick a seating area, there are several to choose from. One thing is for sure. Once you are here, you’ll never want to leave.

Breakfast for an energetic start
Start the day the right way
We love a good breakfast! Fresh orange juice, water, tea and coffee (cappuccino anyone?) a yoghurt made with fruit, nuts, cereal and love, and, of course, “Italian dolce” (croissants or cake). Plus home made delicious bread and jams.
The kitchen closes at 10:30. If circumstances require you to have an earlier breakfast, please let us know. We will try to accomodate. Early breakfast consist of bread rolls with jam, a simple yoghurt and an americano.
Breakfast is served from 09:30 to 11:00.
Sharing soul food and stories
Dinner for a delightful evening
In Italy only Mamma and Nonna can cook authentic Italian, so we will never pretend to do so. We do like cooking the Italian way, meaning local products, pure flavours, ingredients follow the seasons and lots of passion for cooking!
Our dinners are not only about food but also about meeting people and having friendly conversation. It is a great opportunity to mix and get to know each other. We love making new friends and we hope our family of likeminded men will grow over the coming years.
Dinner evenings are held from 20:00 to 22:30 (approximately).
Our food philosophy ~ don’t be eye candy, be soul food
The trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit!
