Fantastic Farmhouse!

The hostess, Giovanna, was a great help to even before we checked in. She helped us locate and reserve restaurants and wine tastings that fit within our budget. While we were there, she was always there to help if we needed it. The farmhouse is truly charming. It is nicely decorated and has everything you would need. The views of the valley below are spectacular. My husband and I went out to the terrace by the garage every evening for a glass of wine. Views from there are spectacular as well. I would highly recommend this property.

Magical 4 days in Piedmont

We loved our stay at Giovanna's traditional country house this week. Giovanna is a very attentive and kind host whose sole wish is that her guests enjoy their stay to the fullest. From tips and advice on where to go and what to do, to keeping cupboards stocked with essentials, including toys for children! Giovanna's place was exactly what we needed for our 4 days stay in Piedmont. A home away from home. We would love to return in the future. Giovanna does have 2 dogs, one of which is young and very boisterous but Giovanna was completely aware and ensured to keep the dog restrained around our small children.

Beautiful house with a great hostess

We had an amazing time at Cascina Bricchetto. Giovanna deserves more than a 10 out of 10. She really goes above and beyond to ensure that her guest have everything they can wish for. The house is very nice. Nicer even than the photos. The finishes are very good with modern amenities like double glazing. Thanks to the shutters on the windows the house stayed a nice temperature, even though there was a heat wave outside. So we slept comfortably. The house is located with 360 views of vineyards and the surroundings. The views are beautiful. There is a very nice garden. Our children loved playing in them. And there are two nice terraces with a roof where you can enjoy the views and a nice glass of wine or coffee or dinner. The house is very clean. Given the farm-like environment, it is amazing how clean the place is. Giovanna really takes care of her guests, the house and everything in it. We would love to come back someday.

Beautiful views in a spotlessly clean and comfortable home

Giovanna is a lovely hostess and we appreciated her thoughtful food preparations. Her home is well equipped and comfortable. The property is a convenient drive for wine tasting in Barbaresco. Her large dog is excitable and jumps up high without warning. His bark is the only noise - the property is very quiet. The views of Mont Monviso are stunning from the top of the hill. The wifi is good but there is no tv or entertainment. We could stream our own movies on an iPad. No screens on windows so beware the critters and bugs and no air conditioning so beware the heat of the summer - we were fine in late September.

Beautiful farmhouse on a hill overlooking vineyards

The house was very clean and every detail was considered. Giovanna graciously welcomed us with a wonderful local wine from a small winery, as well as homemade baked goods. We lacked for nothing during our stay. She had many recommendations of possible activities and destinations. We were 2 couples and the house was perfectly suited for us. The views were breathtaking and the house remained cool during a hot spell, without the aid of air conditioning. We took advantage of the local markets and cooked in several evenings enjoying the local pasta, produce and meat. We would definitely return to Cascina Bricchetto Langhe.

Beautiful setting

We spent a lovely week at Cascina Bricchetto. The house was very comfortable and the views stunning. Our two boys (age 4 and 2) enjoyed the gardens and play area, in particular the sandpit. Giovanna was really helpful recommending local restaurants and we spent a few days exploring local towns and villages. Highly recommended.

Excellent property and situation

Away from it all, Casina Bricchetto offers spectacular views over vineyards and, in the distance, the Alps. Giovanna, the owner, provides a warm welcome with some nice welcoming touches. The hazelnut cake was delicious. She is willing, if asked, to provide local information and help with bookings. The house is very well equipped, comfortable and cool with access to outside dining space. Ideally situated for exploring the Langhe area and all that it has to offer which is considerable.

A wonderful house for a visit to Piedmont

My colleagues and I spent three nights at Casino Bricchetto while visiting Piedmont for wine tasting. The house is beautiful - restored retaining some of the original architecture while being very comfortable and up to date. The rooms are spacious and the kitchen and bathrooms have are all new. While atop a hill with great views, our visits to Barolo and Barbaresco and environs were all within 30-45 minutes drive. Our host Giovanna took great care to make us lunch and dinner reservations and also assisted with booking tastings. She also prepared wonderful breakfast with local meats and cheeses, breads, and home made cake. I'd definitely recommend Cascina Bricchetto and hope to stay there again with family in the future.

Great location, very comfortable, marvellous

We chose to stay at Cascina Bricchetto after looking at several properties in the area of Alba and Asti. We made the right decision!! We were travelling with two other couples and therefore wanted plenty of room in the house. The Grape Pergola House gave us three generous double bedrooms, each with their own bathroom equipped with a shower. The house also had a wonderful kitchen stocked with ample kitchen appliances, cutlery and crockery, and of course wine glasses!! One of the aims of taking a country house was so that the avid cooks among our group could do what they do best. We shopped at the local village markets for the majority of our food and on most days were home for lunch and dinner. Giovanna Oliveri is a wonderful host who did everything that we could have wanted to make our stay enjoyable. Being wine lovers we targeted that area of Italy with the intention of leaning more about Italian wine. We visited many of the historic towns in the general area plus going by train to Turin on one of the days. One of the most delightful aspects of staying at Cascina Bricchetto is to wake up every morning to the most wonderful view over surrounding hills covered in forests and vineyards. It was a truly great holiday and we would recommend the property to anyone wanting a country holiday.

Fantastic view from hill top !

We had a wanderful time at this property location was top of the hill and we had 360 degree panoramic view for grape field. Time was just for harvest farmers are working on taking grapes out of tree. Owner has lovely two dogs very friendly and cute. We asked owner to make arragement for local restourant that was great her recommendation was just light and we enjoy very much. We strongly recommend that if you have a plan to visit Alba stay at this place. Most of local atructions are within 15 to 30 minuets drive. アルバのお宿は丘の上のファームハウスでした、一面のぶどう畑が美しくとても静かで良いところです。ワイナリーも近く近郊を散策するには最適です。トリュフ祭りの初日に合わせて行きましたがアルバまでも30分以内と便利です。最初の日本からのお客様との事で歓待していただきました。

A breathtaking location

My husband and I spent a week in the Bread Oven House. It is located on top of rolling hills, surrounded by grape vines with a view of the Alps in the distance. Giovanna had arranged for several tours of wineries and each one was fascinating. We also were lucky enough to be on the property during grape harvesting and learning more about the local wine industry was fascinating. The house is spotless, fully equipped and beautifully decorated. While it is an old farm, it has modern amenities and is comfortable and welcoming. Giovanna had wonderful suggestions on local sites and restaurants and it's evident that she clearly loves the area-- as we do now. Our two sons (both in the their late 20's and sophisticated New Yorkers) were in awe of the location and the small towns and villages we visited. A memorable week-- we will return soon.

Belle maison sur les hauteur de Trezzo Tanella

Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable à la Cascina Bricchetto. La propriétaire est charmante et à décoré cette ancienne demeure avec goût. Le confort y est excellent et l'équipement de qualité. Tranquillité et nature sont au rendez-vous. Idéalement située avec une vue panoramique sur les colline piémontaises elle offre de multiples possibilités d'activités culturelles ou gustatives. On a particulièrement aimé le jardin et la terrasse où il est agréable de se reposer et de déguster un bon repas entre amis ou en famille. Nous y retournerons si nous en avons l'occasion et je ne peut que recommander cette adresse.

Séjour de rêve à la casa Bricchetto

Un cadre magnifique sur une colline dans les Lenghe, une hôtesse, Giovanna, très accueillante, attentive à nos demandes, disponible et généreuse. La maison parfaitement équipée, tant la cuisine que les salles de bain, d'une propreté parfaite. La déco de très bon goût, mélange de meubles anciens et d'objets modernes. On se sent accueilli et on découvre partout de petites attentions qui nous procurent plaisir et bien-être. Literie très confortable, l'endroit est très calme donc on y dort merveilleusement bien. De magnifiques terrasses ombragées avec une vue superbe sur les collines environnantes où l'on peut se tenir et manger. Un séjour qui nous laisse un souvenir inoubliable, une maison que je recommande vivement à tous les amateurs de nature, de calme et de beauté. Colette

Majestueuse maison vacances - view panoramique

Giovanna, l'hôtesse et propriétaire de cette maison de vacances de luxe et de charme, a beaucoup à offrir. Avant notre arrivée, Giovanna nous avait envoyé plusieurs suggestions intéressantes, des activités dans lesquelles nous pourrions participer pour rendre notre séjour dans cette belle région un moment inoubliable. Elle a même fait des recherches supplémentaires pour trouver un festival culturel traditionnel (danses folkloriques et musiciens) afin que nous puissions connaître la culture du peuple de la région du Piémont. À notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis par Giovanna qui nous a accueillis à bras ouverts. Elle nous a conduits à travers la maison expliquant le fonctionnement des appareils et du foyer à bois, elle nous a montré où trouver les choses. Nous nous sommes sentis très à l'aise. Cascina Bricchetto-Cà Der Forn est situé au sommet d'une colline entourée de vignes. Notre demeure est impeccable et décorée avec goût, plein d'antiquités. La cuisine et les toilettes sont bien équipées: de la vaisselle, des chaudrons et des casseroles, des épices, des pâtes alimentaires, des serviettes, la lingerie, articles de toilette, des détergents, etc. Deux bouteilles de vin local, confitures maison, noisettes des vergers de Giovanna étaient sur le comptoir à notre arrivée. La vue de notre endroit était exceptionnelle, même par temps nuageux. Par temps clair, vous pouvez réellement voir les Alpes à une distance - absolument magnifique, vue panoramique. Giovanna est très bien informé sur l'Italie, et plus particulièrement de la région de Langhe et tout ce que cette région a à offrir. Elle a beaucoup de connexions dans les diverses entreprises et il est facile pour elle de faire des suggestions qui conviennent le mieux à vos besoins. Dans son professionnalisme et sa générosité, elle nous a appris à faire une Tirami Sù et a partagé avec nous ses herbes du jardin. Je n'hésiterais pas à recommander cet endroit à tous ceux qui souhaitent vivre une grande expérience, loin de la foule.

Clean, luxurious holiday home with stunning view

Giovanna, the hostess and owner of this luxurious and charming holiday house, has so much to offer. Prior to our arrival, Giovanna had sent us several, interesting suggestions of activities in which we could partake to make our stay in this beautiful region a memorable one. She even did some additional research to find a traditional, cultural festival (folk dance and musicians) so that we could experience the culture of the people of the Piedmont region. Upon our arrival, we were met by Giovanna who welcomed us with open arms. She walked us through the house explaining how the appliances and fireplace worked, shown us where everything was and made us feel very comfortable. Cascina Bricchetto-Cà Der Forn is located on top of a hill surrounded by vineyards. It is immaculate and tastefully decorated with antiques. The kitchen and washrooms are well equipped with everything from dishes, pots and pans, spices, pasta noodles, towels and linen, toiletries, detergents, etc. Two bottles of local wine, homemade jams, hazelnuts from Giovanna's orchards were on the counter upon our arrival. The view from our place was exceptional, even on cloudy days. On a clear day, you can actually see the Alps at a distance – absolutely stunning, panoramic view. Giovanna is very knowledgeable about Italy, and specifically of the Langhe region and all that it has to offer. She has many connections in the various businesses and it is easy for her to make suggestions that will best suit your needs. In her professional and generous self, she taught us how to make a Tirami Sù and shared with us her garden herbs. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone who wishes to live a great experience, away from the crowds.

Petit paradis au milieu des vignes et noisettes

Après les détours de cette petite route de campagne, la surprise et la sérénité : la maison domine les douces collines des Langhe, la lumière est belle, la maison calme. La maison est très confortable, parfaitement propre, rien n'est fait à l'économie, les matériaux (murs, sols, briques) sont de qualité. Des salles de bain pour chaque chambre, une cuisine bien équipée, des informations sur les Langhe, ses villages, ses oenothèques dans des châteaux, à ne pas rater. Si vous prenez la formule petit déjeuner, je vous le recommande au moins pour le premier matin, vous aller déjà vous familiarise avec les excellents produits du terroir. Giovanna vous accueillera avec gentillesse, discrétion, se mettre en 4 pour vous organiser si vous les souhaitez des excursions ou des visites qu'on ne trouve pas dans les guides. Si cela vous tente, nous avons, en famille, suivi un cours de cuisine piémontaise, chez Giovanna, c'est un grand et beau souvenir. Je suis enthousiaste dans ces quelques lignes, mais pourquoi ne pas dire que l'on a trouvé ce que l'on cherchait pour des vacances !

Perfect holiday let

This holiday house is in a perfect location for exploring the beautiful villages and towns of the Langhe. We enjoyed spending our days driving to explore the lovely area, eat nice food and buy local produce to cook each evening. The house is perfect - spotlessly clean and very well-equipped. Each of the bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom, with a very good shower. The kitchen has everything needed. There is no air conditioning but even in a heat wave we were comfortable given the slightly cooler temperatures on the top of our hill. There is plenty of space for sitting outside to enjoy the wonderful view and watch the stars. Giovanna is a really kind host. She lives in a part of the farmhouse which is close enough for her to be on hand when needed but at enough of a distance that her presence is not intrusive. She is extremely knowledgable about the area and is happy to book wine tastings and restaurants if you wish. We preferred to accept her list of recommended restaurants and use it to find lovely places to eat at lunchtimes during our days out. She booked us wine tastings at 2 local wineries which were fascinating and really helped us understand the wines of the region. We would thoroughly recommend this house.

The Best of the Piedmont

I was looking for a special place to stay in the Langhe. I was escorting family and I wanted someplace to "WOW" them. Someplace with views, a romantic setting, clean, well appointed and an authentic Italian experience. Cascina Bricchetto fits the bill to a T! When we arrived at the top of the ridge where the cascina is located, we were almost giddy. The views reach to the martime and norther alps, there were still snow capped peaks to the north, It was simply stunning. The owner, Signora Giovanna works hard to make sure her property is well stocked, immaculately clean, and in perfect working order. She is warm and genuinely interested in helping you enjoy her region. For wine lovers, there were three types of wine glasses; for whites, nebbiolo based wines and big tannic wines. No detail was overlooked. Ours was a very pleasant visit immersed in the Italian culture, wines and food. I'll visit again.

Four adults and two kids in Piemonte

I can definitely recommend Cascina Brischetto, just out of the town of Nieve in Piemonte. Having travelled through this region several times before, we were very happy with this location, easy drive to towns of Nieve and Barbaresco and the promoted 360 degree views were certainly fantastic. We found Giovanna to be helpful and friendly, and the house to be spacious, very clean and generously fitted out with everything we needed (even proper sized wine glasses, which are very rare in holiday accommodation!). Our 3 year old and 6 year old were very happy with the swings, grassed area and basic sandpit, equipt with toys and we found the accommodation very child friendly. A typical switchback road up to the villa made us feel like we were truly in the Italian countryside, and the generous fruit and vegetables available (including heavily laden fig tree, yum!) allowed us to indulge in the local produce. No complaints, would definitely visit again, both this region and Giovanna's great house. Thanks!

Überwältigende Gastfreundschaft

Wir durften bei Giovanna eine wunderschöne Woche im April 2013 verbringen. Wir sind eine Familie mit zwei Kindern (3 & 6 Jahre) und reisten zusammen mit den Grosseltern. Die Grosszügigkeit und die Gastfreundschaft der Gastgebering war überwältigend. Sie unterstütz den Gast in allen Belangen (Restaurants, Besuch in einer Kellnerei, Weinberatung, Empfehlung von Ausflugszielen, etc.). Das Haus ist grosszügig und es mangelte an nichts. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Das Haus liegt auf einem Hügelkamm mit einem Ausblick bis zu den Alpen. Die zentrale Lage in der Nähe von Alba im Piemont erlaubt kurze Wege zu den vielfältigen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Die Zufahrt ab dem Dorf Trezzo Tinella ist gut ausgeschildert. Falls Sie sich nicht in Italienisch verständigen können ist die Kommunikation auf Englisch kein Problem. Wir empfehlen dieses Haus allen, welche die Ruhe in einer wunderschönen Umgebung suchen und gerne die kulinarischen Höhepunkte des Piemonts geniessen wollen (Wein und Essen). Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder einmal diesem wunderschönen Ort besuchen und die Gastfreundschaft von Giovanna geniessen.

Overwhelming Hospitality

We spent a beautiful week in this gorgeous house in April 2013. We are a Swiss family with two kids (3 & 6 years) travelling together with the grandparents. The generosity and the warm welcome of the owner was overwhelming. Giovanna is the perfect host who knows good restaurants, wines, places to go. The House was very clean, spacious and very well appointed – you will find everything you need (towels, blankets, kitchen fitting) – this makes your stay perfect from the first minute on. Upon request she has also shared her homemade products with us – just perfect. The house lies on the top of a hill in the middle of vineyards. The view over the hills of the Piedmont towards the Alps is breath-taking. Located near the beautiful city Alba other famous cities are in the vicinity (Asti, Barolo, …). We would warmly recommend this house to all who would like to spend unforgettable moments in the middle of the piemonte in in quiet and beautiful environment. Children felt very welcome. We will be back.

A little bit of Souther hospitality in Italy

This was a quickly planned trip to shake up winter a bit and get out of Madrid. We didn't do the usual thorough research but didn't have a big agenda either. We just wanted to wander the small towns, eat well and visit Eataly. The big disappointment was when we discovered the area virtually shuts down at this time of year and the hills are shrouded in fog. What saved the day was that Cascina Bricchetto was very clean, warm, nicely renovated with a well appointed kitchen. Important because we always cook one solid meal a day at home for our 4 yr. old son. Giovanna was the other bright ray. She genuinely likes children, and surprised us one day when she told me to check in the garage because there were some things there for kids and to feel free to take something out. We found a ride on peddle bulldozer and since my son is absolutely fascinated with construction, this find alone made the trip worth it for him. He also found some shovels and a swing. Giovanna came through again with a little southern hospitality. After I inquired about a good place to buy groceries and produce she left us a huge basket of vegetables from her winter garden; broccoli, romesco, cavolo nero, fennel and lettuces. She also gave us directions to an organic stone flour miller in Cassano Belbo that turned out to be a spectacular visit where we met the family who owns and works the mill. I bake bread for a living so this made the trip for me. So the letdown was that most things were closed, our fault for not investigating more thoroughly. The bright spots were Giovannas hospitality and the house., Eataly in Turin, the bulldozer and the mill.
