Charming Villa, large heated pool, wonderful views, peaceful location
Food and winelovers, as well as families and friends will enjoy the beautiful historical property Casa Annunziata set in the heart of the Langhe Hills of Piemonte. The house has been extensively refurbished with a large modern kitchen and 4 bathrooms. The charming authentic old character has been kept with the numerous fireplaces and original visible stone walls. The big family dining room is situated right beside the fully equipped modern kitchen with direct access to the lovely garden. The kitchen door leads to a shaded patio with dinning area. The second spacious and vaulted family room on the first floor has direct access to a sunny veranda and offers spectacular views due to large floor to ceiling windows. At the center of the house is the cozy family room with a large open fireplace from the 16th century. From this area the 5 double bedrooms (1 with an additional double sofa bed and one with an additional futon on the mezzanine) can be reached through a central staircase, as well as three of the four bathrooms. Around the house and in the spacious terraced garden diverse sitting and relaxing areas partially shaded can be found. From the beautiful large swimming pool 11m x 7m the most spectacular views over the valley can be enjoyed. The house is only a 20 minutes walk or 3 minutes drive to the village of Castino which boasts a typical Piedmontese trattoria, a pizzeria, a deli specialised in fresh pasta, a grocery store, a post office a typical "tabaccaio", a coffee bar and an outdoor shop where you can rent bikes and also guided bike tours.
An impressive and authentic family home with a beautiful garden, where you can spend hours in complete privacy. We stayed there with two families and children aged between 5 and 15. There's a lovely swimming pool where you can have lots of fun, beautiful spacious bedrooms with separate bathrooms, and a beautiful view of the surroundings. A charming village with a forno and a bar is within walking distance. The charming towns of Acqui Therme, Nieve, and Alba are easily accessible by car. More experienced cyclists will enjoy the beautiful cycling routes over hills and through vineyards. Unfortunately, the restaurant within walking distance was closed all week. One evening, we enjoyed dinner with Ann and her husband in the garden. The food and drinks were delicious.
Heerlijk verblijf, ontzettend gastvriendelijk en genoten van de extra service aan huis. Een heerlijk diner gehad, klaargemaakt door Ann en Joseph met fantastische wijnen! Echt een aanrader om vooraf wijn te bestellen, Joseph zijn kennis van wijn is uitmuntend. Voor rust en ontspanning, het ideale verblijf!
Beautiful property, excellent pool, gardens, kitchen and bedrooms. Very remote and quiet, exactly what we were looking for. Fabulous tiny tiny town, lovely local people.
Sehr schönes gepflegtes Anwesen fĂŒr eine groĂe Familie. Der Pool war klasse und auch top gepflegt. Uns hat es so gut gefallen, dass wir nĂ€chstes Jahr wiederkommen wollen.
The property is beautiful and spacious for our group of 8. The views are lovely. The kitchen is well equipped and the property manager couldnât have been more helpful. Because it is very rural, there are limited places to eat and grocery shop nearby. The main restaurant was shut for the next 4 months as was the local pasta shop. The down side is that we had to drive a lot. However the lanscape Is stunning
Annetteâs villa is in a beautiful location overlooking a valley below. The rooms are very comfortable, the kitchen is supplied with all of the amenities to enjoy home cooked meals, and the grounds and pool are terrific to enjoy. Would highly recommend the meals prepared by Ann (the caretaker). We had a wonderful time and would surely return.
Awesome views, great building with such character, lots of walks then hit the pool. Well equipped kitchen to make great meals. Very quiet. Dinner option with Ann & Joseph was fantastic. Recommend highly.
Wonderful and spacious house with very well equipped kitchen and large and comfortable bedrooms.
Terrific mountain view, perfect outdoor areas and a superb pool.
Nice short walk to Castino, a charming small town with most of what you need.
Our family (six adults) spent two wonderful weeks at Casa Annunziata recently.
Like other reviewers we found the house was very clean and comfortable with several alfresco eating areas and an excellent outdoor pool area that we took full advantage of.
After we ignored the directions provided (donât use google maps!) Ann, the property manager patiently guided us to the house - literally stayed on the phone and gave us bend by bend instructions, and then provided a comprehensive intro to the house and grounds.
We had requested some food and wine be purchased for our first evening and as a result there was great quality food and wine waiting (special thanks for the wine, Joseph!)
We really appreciated the tranquility of the house location amongst the hazelnut groves and itâs proximity to historic Castino with lovely local walks nearby.
Also appreciated the recommendations about local markets, restaurants, wine tastings etc. Of particular note were visits to Barolo, la Morra and Cortemelia - donât miss la Corte de Cannobia for the best hazelnuts and icecream! and local visits to Francesco Scanavino and the Camo Museo a Cielo.
Like previous guests we highly recommend the home dining service provided by Ann and Joseph which was a real qhighlight of our holiday.
Many thanks Annette for sharing your property!
While the pictures of the property are breathtaking, they do no justice to reality. Everything was beyond expectations and our time in Castino was magical.
The property owner and on local manager ensured everything was in order and made our stay totally comfortable and relaxing.
Fantastic property managers. We had two dinners with vine and food. We recommend strongly to book this. Ann and Joseph were the best.
The house, garden and poolarea was very nice.
Excellent property in a great quiet rural location but only 10 mins walk from Castino with its cafe/bar, deli and pasta shop. Perfect for a relaxing getaway with our family and friends. Lots to see in the area - we only scratched the surface. Pool was lovely and much enjoyed, and a real bonus in the summer heat. Communications with Annette and Ann were excellent, and we were made to feel very welcome - with recommendations for places to visit and eat. A real highlight was the evening meal cooked by Joseph and Ann - which was delicious and highly recommended. A fantastic holiday enjoyed by all of us.
Lovely house, well-equipped and easily accommodating 10-12p. Ideal for 3 fams as the rooms on levels 1 and 2 have opposite bedrooms. Great pool on a nice 3-level garden with more than enough space. On the mezzanine level a fine terrass overlooking the hilly environment. We would certainly recommend the property!
Our group of 8 thoroughly enjoyed our stay and certainly would highly recommend. The house & pool area were a needed recluse after a week in busy cities to the south.
Highlight was a fantastic six-course meal with wine pairings prepared by Ann and Joseph! This made a "big" birthday even more special.
Also, I would recommend using their wine service as well. After a couple of e-mails with Joseph about what kind of wine we liked, we arrived at the and were greeted with all of the wine we ordered, which would have been impossible to duplicate from a store or wineries.
Our group likes to cook and we were very happy with the kitchen and amenities.
We enjoyed the stroll through hazelnut orchards to the village of Castino (do it at night and catch the fireflies!), where we visited the deli, coffee shop and yes, the ATM! Also caught an interesting match of fistball one night against another village in a street next to Santa Margherita.
Overall fantastic experience and a great base camp to explore Alba, Barolo, Barbaresco and other small Langhe towns, as well as the Italian Riviera.
Great house with an amazing view. Only âdrawbackâ is it is slightly secluded. 15 minute drive to the grocery store. But that is also itâs charm, just be aware. We had 7 adults and the house worked perfectly for us. We took advantage of having Ann and her husband cook for us while there. Incredible meal! More than worth it. Highly recommend this amazing house!
Die ganze Familie (10 Erwachsene und 4 Kinder) war begeistert. Garten, Pool, KĂŒche, Spielzimmer, Ess- und Wohnzimmer. Dazu mehrere Sitzgelegenheiten im Freien. FĂŒr uns waren die Tische aber alle zu klein. War aber auch kein grosses Problem. Holt man sich halt von einem anderen Sitzplatz was dazu. Der tĂ€gliche Einkauf ist mit dem Fahrrad in 10 Minuten kein Problem. Der kleine Laden im Ort hat immer mal offen.
Durch die freundliche Hilfe von Ann bzw. ihrem Mann konnten wir auch eine befĂŒrchtete "weinfreie" Zeit nach der Ankunft ĂŒberwinden. Obwohl eigentlich alles geschlossen war gab es noch einen Winzer der am spĂ€ten Abend fĂŒr uns aufmachte.
Drei kleine Probleme hat das Haus allerdings.1. Die Sicherung haut es regelmĂ€Ăig beim Kochen raus. 2. Der Gasherd mag nicht immer auf allen Flammen kochen - was bei unserer Personenzahl ein kleines Problem war. 3. Der Boiler funktionierte nicht immer. Was etwas blöd ist, wenn man gerade unter der Dusche steht.
Aber sonst war es echt toll. Und obwohl die Unterkunft doch hochpreisig ist, ĂŒberlegen wir den Urlaub in den nĂ€chsten Jahren zu wiederholen.
Ăbrigens konnte Ann unsere Strom,- Wasser - und anderen Problem telefonisch (auch spĂ€t abends) immer lösen - auch dafĂŒr noch mal danke.
Noch ein kleiner Tip fĂŒr die Anfahrt. Die Adresse stimmt nicht wenn man sie einfach ins Navi eingibt. Also bitte die Anfahrtsbeschreibung von Ann nehmen.
Auf alle FĂ€lle eine Empfehlung.
Wir hatten wunderbare 10 Tage in diesem superschönen Domizil. Noch nicht einmal die 5 Tage heftiger Regen konnten uns die Freude an dem Haus nehmen. Im Gegenteil, auch bei diesem Teil des Urlaubs waren wir voll zufrieden. Alle RĂ€ume sind so groĂ, daĂ jeder seinen Platz finden konnte, und wir konnten auch dann malen als um uns alles im dichten Nebel verloren ging.
Ann war eine wundervolle und liebenswerte Ansprechpartnerin die uns immer sehr schnell zu Hilfe geeilt ist..
Der kleine sehr nette Ort bietet alles was man zum leben bzw. zum schlemmen braucht. Die KĂŒche im Haus tat dann den Rest dazu, alles was man braucht ist vorhanden. Und nicht zu vergessen die liebevollen Geschenke zu Beginn.
Die letzten 3 Sonnentage haben wir dann auch Garten, Pool und Terrassen noch ausgiebig genieĂen können.
Wir danken ihnen fĂŒr solch ein herrliches Haus, daĂ wir teilen durften.
Mit herzlichen GrĂŒĂen

Annette was very responsive and the house had all of the amenities promised. Stunning views and a perfect place for a large family gathering- lots of large rooms for together time and private spaces for alone time.
Our family of nine fit comfortably in this well maintained and beautiful property. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. We loved the two large living rooms as well. We were close to Alba and was able to enjoy the town and the White Truffle Festival with wine tastings there. Property hosts Ann and Joseph were extremely helpful responding to our questions with many suggestions. Two highlights were our specially arranged Truffle Hunt and a delicious Prix Fixe dinner with wine pairings created by Joseph and Ann at Casa Annunziata for our family and some friends. Grazie mille also to Annette for sharing her familyâs warm and beautiful home with our family. Aloha from Felice and Ed
Beautiful Villa with great accomodations tucked away in Piemonte
The stay was fantastic. The house is very well equipped and very comfortable with 5 rooms that were all equally great. The amentities were top notch and the property was incredibly maintained. We were treated to a wonderful dinner and wine pairing our first night and then took advantage of the kitchen the following meals. The kitchen was a cook's dream - all the tools you need and a great range and oven for anyone who likes to cook. I wish we had the time to be here longer, we could have stayed for weeks. Additionally we had our 17 month old with us and she enjoyed the property, running around the garden all day. Thank you so much.
We booked the house to stay in with my mom and our 4 year old son. Friends also came to meet us. The house was so great with multiple groups as there are bedrooms and bathrooms on three different floors. Ann met us at the house with a warm welcome and wine we had ordered. She also arranged a babysitter for our son who was so wonderful. The house is just perfect, nestled in a hazelnut orchard, but not too far from town. The market and bakery in Cortemilia was a favorite. All in all, a totally perfect spot.
We loved our stay. The house and
grounds were beautiful. Every bedroom had
different features but everyone loved their room. Pool is stunning and we used it most afternoons after a day of sightseeing. Kitchen was well provisioned and we cooked a lot. Highly recommend catered dinner by Joe and Anne and also recommend trip to Annâs museum in Camo. You can walk to Castino which has a good alimentary but slim choices for dining. Most dining about a thirty minute drive and there were an endless number of charming towns and restaurants to visit. Restaurant recommendations were greatly appreciated. We loved the wine tour and tasting at Abrigo Giovanni.
