Our Location

We are located in Northern Italy, on the border of the regions of Asti and Piedmont, enjoying the benefits that both areas have to offer.

The cities of Turin, Asti, Alba and Chieri are all easily accessible by car, where you can visit the Savoy palaces, the Moly Museum of Cinema, the Egyptian Museum and Stupinigi Palace. In October the truffle festival of Alba takes place.

The town of Castelnuova Don Bosco is just over a mile away where there is a good range of shops and cafes catering for every need, including supermarkets and a department store. There is also an excellent cantina where you can taste the delicious wines before buying from as little as two euros per litre or the finest wines available in the region. The farmers market on Thursdays sells local produce, fresh fruit, vegetables as well as hand made goods.

The city of Turin is only 19 miles (29K) from here and is very easily accessed by car, train or regular bus service. There is ample underground parking within walking distance of many of the wonderful sights. To stroll along the tree lined streets, amongst the grand baroque architecture, cross the piazzas, on the way to the Place San Carlo (above), Egyptian museum, the Royal Palace, Eglise San Lorenzo (right) and the Moly Museum of Cinema is an unforgettable experience. Stop for a while to sip a cool drink or sample a biccherine at one of the old world coffee houses along the way, sit in the sun and watch the fashionable people pass by. A truly magical city.

Milan is 84 miles (136K) away and can be reached by train from Chivasso station .Visitors to this area often fly into Milan, spend a little time there, visiting the Duomo and window shopping in the exclusive designer fashion district, before coming on to Casa La Mura to enjoy the delights of this whole area.

The religious historical sites of Abbey of Vezzolano (left) and College of Don Bosco are a stones throw away.

All the local villages have a historical centre, some pedestrianized where you can stroll at leisure and absorb the sleepy atmosphere of places that have not changed for many years.

The province is well served by several golf courses, two of which are within 45 minutes drive.

Numerous village festivals take place throughout the summer months where you can wine and dine at a small price, and enjoy the music and dancing with the locals afterwards.
