The Piedmonte region is beautiful and Casa Fonda is a wonderful place to base yourself to explore all that it has to offer. Julie & Peter are great hosts, very friendly and helpful in providing information about the region. Their home is beautiful with lovely furniture and their attention to detail second to none. It was great being able to use their bbq (like being at home) and relaxing by the pool during the afternoon when we returned from exploring. We enjoyed exploring the area - Alba, Asti, Turin and Acqui Terme and all the little villages nearby. It was a great place to spend a week. Thank you Julie & Peter for making us feel so welcome.
The tranquil location of Casa Fonda was such a wonderful place to relax, especially by the swimming pool, overlooking the vineyards and surrounded by a beautiful gardens.
Julie and Peter were perfect hosts and had a wealth of knowledge and information about the surrounding hilltop villages, towns and Turin
We had a wonderful stay with Julie & Peter at Casa Fonda. They are excellent hosts, sharing their fabulous property with us and especially their pool.
Their location was an ideal base to get out and visit Turin (caught train from Asti) and Alba, and the Piemonte Region.
It is set in a beautiful hilly landscape that has the UNESCO protection for it's vineyards and wine production techniques, which is really interesting in itself. We certainly enjoyed a few local wines.
If we get back to Northern Italy, we would definitely stay again.
The most beautiful home and garden, surrounded by vines, in a fabulous rural area but close to good-sized towns and just an hour from Turin.
Julie and Peter, the owners, are the perfect hosts; friendly, helpful and welcoming with a wealth of knowledge on local restaurants, wineries, micro breweries, shopping, days out and generally having a wonderful vacation!
We had a wonderful time at Casa Fonda. The guest suite was charming and rustic. Loved having the kitchenette. The views and garden were spectacular. We love wine and exploring so that region of Italy was wonderful. Peter and Julie were great host. Very helpful in giving us information on restaurants and intesting sites to see. Would love to visit again someday.
