Phil and Ingrid are very special people who have worked immensely hard to make their home a comfortable and fabulous place to stay. The setting is beautiful, and P&I are immensely knowledeable about wine, winemaking, and the many places to visit near and far. They are also calm and patient in a crisis which was most days as I couldn't navigate or, it seemed drive However, I am excellent at singing in the car and improvisation - as are they.
This is a wonderful place to relax and explore this beautiful region.

Our second stay at Vecchio Podere proved to be just as comfortable, relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable as our first. Phil and Ingrid are the perfect hosts, making everyone feel welcome, special and nothing is too much trouble. From the first welcome drink in their magnificent farmhouse to a rousing slap up meal washed down with a few glasses of "Piano Piano" - it's the perfect holiday destination....we'll be back.

The accommodation is excellent, beautiful setting overlooking the vine yards peaceful & relaxing. Lovely swimming pool with Bar. Phil & Ingrid are great hosts they set up a wine tasting lunch for us at short notice. The Wine tasting was excellent very informative and great wine also lovely food.

We enjoyed our stay with Ingrid and Phil very much. We (2 parents + 2 kids) stayed in their Barbera apartment which has 2 spacious bedrooms and a not too big but comfortable kitchen/living room.

We were welcomed in a very friendly way and really appreciated the "Welcome kit" (bread, milk, coffee, tea, water etc.) to overcome the first day and night.

Phil and Ingrid manage to find a good balance between taking care of their guests on one hand and letting them enjoy the quietness on the other. We all loved the pool with its beautiful views on Piedmont and the Alps in the background.

If you need advice about which places to visit or where to have dinner, Phil and Ingrid are happy to come up with many ideas and even book your table if you're not fluent in Italian.

A guided tour by Phil through his vineyards is very interesting and highly recommended!
