About this property

Peace, Pool and Panoramas in the Monferrato, UNESCO's hidden gem in Italy

NB SATURDAY TO SATURDAY BOOKINGS ONLY THANK YOU!

Fully restored by its enthusiastic English/ Irish owners, Ca' Giona has become a huge success with everyone who visits. Apart from its unique setting on a hillside terrace with its own beautiful private pool surrounded by glorious landscapes and unspoiled local towns, this very characterful house is in an area recently awarded Unesco World Heritage status.
CULTURE AND SHOPPING
The remarkable historic cities of Genoa, Turin and Milan are all within easy driving distance of 90mins to 2 hours so cultural visits and serious shopping is easily available if wished.
WINE AND FOOD
Renowned for its fine wines, Barbera, Dolcetto and Gavi are local, the heavy hitters Barolo and Barbaresco just an hour's drive away.
Fine cheeses, wonderful cured meats, white truffles and porcini mushrooms in season all add to Piedmont’s reputation as a gourmet paradise. Keen cooks will love the local markets in Acqui Terme and Nizza and find everything necessary for great cooking in the well-supplied kitchen.
EVERYDAY LIFE
Sitting by the pool or on the terrace surrounded by truly rural unspoiled landscape is occupation in itself. Walkers and cyclists will enjoy the undulating, quite challenging local roads, the more ambitious may hike over any vineyards and farmland that isn't fenced off.
LOCAL VILLAGE
The village shop in medieval Montabone is 10 minutes easy stroll away around a beautiful valley, and Signora Ines' wonderful deli supplies everything needed to create great suppers and lunches; otherwise guests can eat well in various good local restaurants including one in the village itself. We are spoiled for choice!
There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. The bathroom features a shower, a bidet, and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a washing machine and an iron/ironing board.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a spa tub or take in the view from a terrace.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Heerlijk huis met geweldig uitzicht
We verbleven (in de zomer) met 6 volwassenen in het huis. De slaapkamers zijn ruim en ook rondom het huis en zwembad is lekker veel ruimte. Het uitzicht is geweldig en gaat nooit vervelen. De keuken is goed uitgerust, alleen het aantal glazen is wat aan de beperkte kant. De oprit naar het huis is erg steil en het in en uitrijden vraagt wat stuurmanskunst. Maar als je eenmaal bij het huis bent, is het genieten.

Wonderful location, nice house, exceptionally beautiful holidays
We rented the house for a week in october and were very lucky with the weather. Warm, summer-like temperatures and no single drop of rain during our stay. Location of the house is simply perfect between wine yards and olive trees. The interior design is simple but very atmospheric and authentic. Our children enjoyed the large garden, although the pool was unfortunately already closed (which we were informed about prior to our stay).

Absolute Ruhe in traumhafter Lage
Es war ein traumhaft schöner Aufenthalt, wer absolute Ruhe sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Ein sehr liebevoll gepflegtes und einsam gelegenes Rustico, inmitten der Weinberge. Tolle Ausflugsziele rundherum, sehr wenig Touristen und sehr viel authentisches Italien. Wir haben auf dem Markt eingekauft, selbst gekocht, viel gelesen und den tollen Pool genossen. Ein absolute Oase, mit sehr lieben Gastgebern, die immer erreichbar waren. Liebe Grüße Jo und Peggy

Erholung pur
Wer die Ruhe genießen will und gerne abschalten möchte findet ein sehr schönes Haus im Herzen Piemonts. Der Blick ist traumhaft, die Region ist grün und abwechslungsreich. Acqui Terme ist eine Entdeckung wert. Turin und Genua sind auch recht gut zu erreichen.

Un havre de paix
Une maison très agréable, bien équipée, au milieu de vignes et d'une tranquillité incroyable. La grande piscine est très agréable à proximité de la maison (quelques dizaines de mètres). Ruth la proprietaire est facile à joindre et le relais local (Trevor et Jesse) s'occupe de la maison de manière optimale (linge changé le samedi si la location dure plus d'une semaine). Les villages alentours sont très beaux et la région du Monferrato magnifique. Nous recommandons.
