spectacular location and place

It's a perfect place for a large family, very reasonable, clean renovated country farmhouse. Wonderful pool perched at edge of property enjoying a glass of wine and cheese. Mart is well connected into the area and can provide catering, recommendations for dinner and has an in with many vintners. I highly recommend it.

Outstanding property, as described and more

This large, ambling farmhouse far exceeded our expectations as a site for our family gathering. Views from this property are superb, fine pool, large, well-stocked kitchen, country roads for long walks, San Damiano has good shopping, a fine bike shop for rentals (Cicli Giorgio), and at least a couple of decent restaurants (ask Mart for tips). Further afield is Barolo and Barbaresco, with Roero right next door. This is a very personal rental experience. The family was helpful at every turn. The Pizza oven is first rate, big enough for 2-3 pizzas at once, given some skill with the peel. Plenty of firewood available (firewood gathering seems to be an important part of the local culture). I would love to visit again, having the chance to sample what this area (and house) has to offer.

Great space, a few hiccups

This house provided a great space and home base for three couples, with spacious bedrooms, 3.5 baths, excellent kitchen, dining & living area, additional den, laundry, and lovely outdoor space with lots of amenities, including pizza oven, pool etc. Sitting atop a hill, it offered great views and ease of proximity to San Damiano, Alba and other nearby towns. I would give the property a 5; however, we encountered mechanical issues with the boiler that was the source of hot water and heat. Our host, Kaya, had let us know before we departed the US that the boiler was malfunctioning and she was working diligently to get a plumber to resolve it. When we arrived, she said he had corrected it but within two days, it failed. Kaya was very attentive to the situation and guided us through a work around. But the uncertainty of hot water added some stress to our stay. The boiler continued to be erratic. Kaya could only do so much and finally called the plumber. The system seemed to work the final night of our stay. (We could also not get the hot tub to heat the water.) In hindsight, we should have done a thorough walk-through with Kaya to ensure all the equipment was functioning and also how the boiler system work. (One wall radiator never came on.) Bottom line: it's a really nice, large comfortable country home in a great location with many accoutrements. I am confident the mechanical issues will be resolved before the next renters arrive.

Great stay in Piedmonte

This is a farmhouse converted and upgraded with all the current appliances, fast internet, and even a sauna and a hot tub. Yes there are parts that are still rustic but not in a way to make you uncomfortable. And the views of the Vineyards and other hilltops like Cisterna are second to none. We can't say enough good things about our host. She is very knowledgeable about the property, the local restaurants, grocery stores, and wineries. She even set us up with a cooking class and responded very quickly to our questions and needs. We felt obligated to leave her a bottle of wine for her outstanding service.

Prachtige ligging

Een prachtig huis met een goed zwembad en binnenin heel goed ingericht. In de keuken vind je een heel uitgebreid assortiment van keukenmateriaal en ingredienten en kruiden. Er is geen televisie maar we konden via een beamer de ronde van Franrijk volgen met Chromecast en dat op groot scherm! Het huis is zeer ruim en aangenaam ingericht. Het enige punjte van kritiek zijn de tuinmeubels die een poetsbeurt kunnen gebruiken. We hebben een hele mooie week vakantie gehad in dit huis en het is zeker een aanrader. Er zijn ook mooie wandelingen die starten aan het huis en het uitzicht is prachtig.

What a magical place

We just loved it! This place with its rustic and romantic charm captivated us. The view is breathtaking, the facilities more than complete (who offers table tennis, a pizza oven, a gas barbeque or 4 coffee machines, any style?). 3 patios in each direction allow you to follow or hide from the sun, just as you like it. Kaya is a charming person and always helpful with all questions you might have. But watch out: This is an old farmhouse with a centuries-old tradition - everybody, who expects a luxury five-star golf resort & spa with modern design furniture does not deserve this graceful spot. We can´t wait to come back ! Best regards to Kaya and Mart

Wonderful rural Piedmont home

This home was well off the beaten path near San Damiano d'Asti. It shows all the signs of being wonderfully cared for as the owner's own home. The view off the deck around the swimming pool had beautiful sunsets over Cisterna d'Asti, surrounded by vineyards, and the very occaisional walker or driver going to the nearby Agriturismo. The bed was quite comfortable (always a risk), and the kitchen was completely equipped. We hope to be able to return.

Beautiful location, in need of some improvements

Location is lovely. Top of a hill surrounded by vineyards and with great views. The house is rustic. If you like the idea of a holiday feeling like you are in someone’s house-this is for you. Very well equipped in the kitchen. Some rooms a bit cluttered with owners personal effects. Pool furniture old and falling apart. Towels worn out. Be aware one bedroom had a futon on a mezzanine floor. Owners dog barking was annoying. Unfortunately we came home from a day out to find that we had been robbed. Handbag, cash, credit cards jewellery and rather strangely womens shoes. Despite this we had fun and celebrated a 60th birthday with a catered dinner.

Perfect holidays with all the Family!

For my father's 70th birthday, we had a wonderful week for 10 people. From grandparents to grandchildren, everyone fell in love with this house, not to mention the breathtaking view. All bedrooms and bathrooms are well appointed and decorated with a lot of taste. The 3 different outdoor terraces allow you to make the most of the sunshine or to get in the shade of the pergola depending on the time of day. A warm welcome from the host and aperitif awaited us. The owner's daughter was lovely and available to share very good tips such as best restaurants & shops in the region. We also had access to fruits & vegetables from the garden to really feel at home! Amazing swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, grills, and perfect kitchen very well furnished. Grazie Mille !

Perfect place with incredible view

Very charming old house on the hill top in the vineyards with the most incredible view through out the valley and to the town of Cisterna D'Asti. It was so quite and peaceful. We stayed two families - 8 people total and there was so much space. A nice pool and a Hot Tub and in the nice garden we haved acces to herbs and vegtables. Upon arrival the nice host Kaya served a nice tapas with local wine and she had a lot of local recommendations for both wine visits, restaurants and local stores in the nearby cities. The communication with the host was easy with promtly answers if we had any questions.We highly reccomend this place for vacation in Piedmonte and it would be a pleasure to came back.

Authentic Italian countryside experience

The first thing you’ll notice is the view: lush vineyards and storybook villages. We spent quite a bit of time by the pool just taking in the views and sunsets. The sounds are equally enchanting—church bells & cuckoo birds. The house, while not a luxury rental, has genuine character: spacious, comfortable, & filled with interesting mementos, books and art, like staying in the home of a well-traveled friend. You can take walks and see lots of different fruit & olive trees. We could also pick fresh herbs & vegetables from the garden. Overall, it was an authentic Italian farmhouse experience in a real agricultural setting. Property manager was lovely & is well-connected to area food/wine scene. She provided many recommendations of places to visit & set up winery tours & private chefs — all were a hit. She lives nearby and was responsive when small things came up. Cleaning service did a great job tidying up the house mid-stay when we had new guests arriving. San Damiano is fun to explore with cafes & a weekly market. A few downsides: - Summers are warm! 1 upstairs room has a/c; others have fans. But it does cool off at night, & there’s the pool! - Some bugs. 1 bedroom had window screens, another had mosquito netting. We brought Thermacells. Overall, insects a mild nuisance but manageable - Due to drought, a few nights the local water authority reduced water pressure overnight, but it came back in the AM After staying here, we’re already planning to come back to Piedmont.

Awesome location, breathtaking views

This house had by far the best views in over 20 years of spending holidays in homes in Italy. The house is literally in the vineyards. We're welcomed with some snacks and wine which made us feel right at home. In the morning you can already enjoy breakfast in the sun which does not stop until the sun sets in the evening. We did a 10K walk from the house around the hills and from many places you’ll see the house as landmark. Beautifull and full of vineyards. The house is very spacious and in fact with just 6 people we'd not used several rooms at all. All rooms are huge. The fireplace was great for the colder evenings, the house had everything you'd need - just bring food. The pool was clean, a little chilly as we were here early in the season. I was pleasantly surprised there was a jacuzzi, I had somehow missed that prior. We loved every minute in and around the house. The only thing that we 'd seen as something that could be updated a bit was in the kitchen. The cabinet under the sink was a bit worn out and sealant on top could be refreshed.

Magical Week on the Hilltop

Six of us — four adults and two children — spent a wonderful week at this very large house in late May. We picked this week for optimum weather and we got beautiful days — what we didn’t expect was the bounty of fruits and vegetables available to us on the property then. The cherry tree was full; the children loved strawberries from the garden each morning; we found apricots just ripening, and there was zucchini in the vegetable garden. Kaya, the house manager, offered access to all of it to us. We picked this house because it has character, and it is exactly as it appears online. It’s not a flashy rental; it’s an authentic Italian house with a pool and tons of amenities; any quirks are no big deal. It’s located at the top of a hill in the middle of vineyards with spectacular views; drinking coffee and looking out at the view every morning was magical. Kaya was so helpful in setting up vineyard visits and dinner reservations and provided all sorts of good guidance. The area nearby has lots of beautiful hill towns and little villages that are authentic and not like the tourist meccas in Tuscany or Umbria. The Langhe wine region and Turin are all close. The only heads up is that it is located on a narrow gravel road, and GPS sometimes will advise you to get up the hill on what are almost impassable farm roads. Two roads that take you up the hill off of Via Valmolina are the best options. We loved this place, and were happy to have picked a perfect time to come.

Haus an aussergewöhnlicher Lage

Mart hat uns sehr freundlich mit einem Apéro empfangen. Anschliessend wurde uns das riesige Haus gezeigt. Es war bereits alles vorbereitet. Die Lage ist einfach einmalig, Mart als Gastgeber ebenfalls. Wenn was fehlt oder man einen Termin bei einem Weingut möchte ist er sehr schnell und organisiert alles. Auch durften wir uns bei den Früchten im Garten bedienen. Man wohnt in einem 300 Jahr alten Haus, hier kann nicht alles glänzen und es ist auch kein Luxus Objekt. Dafür ist es sehr persönlich eingerichtet, für Familien mit etwas grösseren Kindern perfekt. Viel Platz zum Spielen und rum toben. Der Grillplatz mit Pizzaofen draussen, lässt auch nicht zu wünschen übrig. Für unkomplizierte Leute die das spezielle suchen.
