In Piedmont, set among the hilly vineyards of Monferrato, Villa Cuccaro is the ideal place to be in contact with nature. Immersed in silence, on the top of a gentle hill, you can dedicate yourself to contemplating the views, to moments of relaxation by the beautiful swimming pool, to long walks and to discovering the food and wine excellences of the area. Villa Cuccaro underwent a complete renovation in 2017. All the rooms, bedrooms and common areas, were completely renovated and today the structure combines elements of comfort, modernity and high-level functionality with its imposing and fascinating look of a manor house of the early 1900s.
18th century country villa belonging to a noble Piedmontese family. Renovated in 2005, the house is in an enviable position: set on the hills of Monferrato, with total privacy and views of the surrounding countryside, it is surrounded by rural scenery that, since 2014, is a UNESCO World Heritage site, a territory which, thanks to its wine and food wealth, is known throughout the world. Guests will enjoy an unforgettable stay in elegantly furnished rooms, immersed in the warmth of the countryside. While enjoying the utmost tranquillity, La Costa is easily reachable, being just a short distance from the village of Terruggia and a few kilometres from Casale Monferrato, an historic town that boasts a renowned food and wine tradition (truffles, cheeses, meats), while in one hour you can get to Milan, Turin and Genoa, for a perfect mix of relaxation, tranquillity, rural environment, cultural and food & wine tourism, and shopping.
Located among the splendid hills of Monferrato, in the heart of the little town of Grognardo. It consists of three independent units: the main building, an elegant residence built around 1630, with extensions that over the course of the centuries have led to the current surface area of approximately 900 sq m, and the two structures built in 1820, not far from the main building, used at the time as stables and staff quarters and from which the two annexes have today been created, maintaining their original plain character. The recent preservative restoration interventions, carried out in the large bedrooms and halls of the 17th century residence, have restored splendour to the old floors, vaulted ceilings and frescoes which today coexist in harmony with the decoration and rooms specifically created for ascetic and meditative practices. The large cellar in the basement, with its beautiful arches and exposed-stone walls and currently used as a characteristic dining room with adjoining tasting bar, was used until 1980 as a cellar for the production of wine for the town of Grognardo. The garden, which covers an area of approximately 2,300 sq m, is protected by a continuous, 3,5 m high wall and by lush vegetation which give the property privacy and tranquillity so that guests can freely enjoy the beautiful swimming pool, the solarium and the various relaxation areas.
Located on the slopes of the old borgo of Ottiglio and can be easily reached by car via the A26 motorway from the Casale Sud exit (21 km).
A charming old residence stands at the foot of the town of Ottiglio, in the heart of the Monferrato, declared Unesco World Heritage Site, where time seems to have stood still. This is Villa Ottiglia, built in the 16th century by the noble family of the same name from Milan, as certified in the historical papers of the Ottiglio archive. Over the course of the centuries the house was also inhabited by the Viceroy of Sardinia, Cavaliere Montiglio di Ottiglio, then was donated to the curia of Casale Monferrato which designated it as a parochial residence in the last century. The house has recently been restored under constraint of the Superintendence of Fine Arts of Turin, respecting the standards and adapting it to contemporary use.
