Lovely view

Our big family had a nice stay during two weeks. The house was very functional and the owner was easy to contact. Govone is a nice village with restaurants cantinas for tasting and this house is situated on top with a spectacular view over the area with wine fields and hazel nut trees and in clear days you could see the sun go down behind the alps.

Nice villa with a garden very close to the village.

The villa has a great garden. Part of the garden was unavailable as there were works for a pool. It is very nicely located in the Piedmont area. Very close to the Govone village and only 40-50 mins drive from Alba, Barolo ad other nice villages. It is good for a large group as all rooms are upstairs and there are 3 bathrooms which make things easier at peak times.

Nice house in a pleasant place!

Govone Beautiful location -one of the most cute towns in the area. Not too noisy as Alba and Asti and not too dead as tens of other small towns -Govone is just perfect. There is a pharmacy, bakery, supermarket. On Wednesdays, there is a market near the castle, offering good choise of cheeses and fruits. The castle is worth visiting, the weekend bar near the castle has the most tasty gelato in the area and also there are fine facilities for a baby toplay -a sandbox, swings and a slide. As to the house itself -it is very comfortable, well maintained, and clean. The kitchen has all you need -a coffee machine, a kettle, a dishwasher, all plates and pans that you can imagine. The rooms are very big and nicely decorated. The garden worth to be mentioned separately - not just because it is full if roses, irises, rododendrons and lavender, good planned and maintained but also because it has such a stunning view to Alps and valley that you can spend all day there, relaxing in a chaise-longue, drinking superb wine bought in a local shop... The owner is very friendly and hostile. He loves and treats children well so our baby son called him a granny:) He and his beautiful wife Yuko made us a nice welcome dinner of local food, and I predict that one day when they open a restaurant there, it becomes very popular thanks to Filippo's talent to cook cream caramel! We spent one month there.Enjoyed every day in Filippo's house. We recommend it to everybody, especially for families with kids as it is a perfect place for them!

Un buon inizio con una spiacevole sorpresa finale

Sulla casa nulla dire, la proprietà corrisponde alla descrizione e alle informazioni ricevute in precedenza dal signor Filippo. Consiglio però di redigere un inventario degli oggetti della casa con il proprio valore prima di sottoscrivere il contratto. Accidentalmente è stato rotto da parte nostra una struttura di un divano letto Ikea. Il danno è stato da noi riconosciuto e sicuramente eravamo d’accordo nel rimborsare il signor Filippo. Peccato che si è trattenuto un valore pari a cinque volte il valore a nuovo del letto, insinuando la nostra non buona fede utilizzando anche parole offensive nei nostri confronti. Gli incidenti possono capitare e si possono risolvere in modo onesto!!! Speriamo che Vrbo possa intervenire nel tutelare non solo le proprietà ma anche gli inquilini!! Un po’ meno arroganza e un po’ più di umiltà!!

MAGNIFICENT PROPERTY

Dealing with Filippo is a real pleasure. He responds to emails quickly and provides you with all the information you will need for an enjoyable stay at the villa. The views from the villa over the valley with the Alps in the distance are spectacular. The villa itself is magnificent and the kitchen is better equipped than any kitchen I’ve ever seen in a rental property. There’s adequate hot water and good water pressure. The property is very quiet. Within 175 m of the property is a pharmacy, restaurant/pizzeria, bakery, bar and a free public parking area. In less than a five minute drive is a hardware store and grocery store. I mentioned the free public parking area because even though the website says that there is parking on the property the entrance is so narrow that only a very small car could possibly get on to the property. There is plenty of parking across the street from the villa but I chose to park at the public parking area. If you decide to park in the public parking area you cannot park there on Tuesday nights because there’s a market early Wednesday morning. There are only a few minor negatives about the property. First of all, there are no hooks in the bathrooms. We found this to be very irritating. Also in one of the bathrooms the only lighting is around the mirror. During the day this is okay but at night it is like a dungeon. One word of advice to anyone staying at the villa. Bring shoes that you can easily slip on and off. The reason I say this is that there are no bathrooms on the ground floor and you have to go up a set of stairs to get to the bathrooms. The stairs are carpeted with light carpeting and Filippo requests that you do not wear your street shoes on this carpet (he provides plenty of slippers). If you stop in during the day to either drop something off or pick something up and you want to go to the bathroom, you have to take your shoes off. Unfortunately, all I had were hiking boots and to unlace and relace these boots got to be a real irritant. So, make sure you wear slip on shoes. We had a very enjoyable stay and would love to go back.

Wonderful and Amazing

1st Filippo was gracious and showed us around the property and explained everything in and around the house. The house was very clean and comfortable. We hired Filippo to drive to several wineries for our group and saved us, I am sure several times to not get lost. After each of our day trips we enjoyed the back seating to enjoy our cheeses and wines and relax with the views of to a distance. Filippo was also very helpful in recommending restaurants for dinners. They were amazing and unique and very local cuisine. We would without a doubt book this property again when in the area.

Wir fühlten uns wie im siebten Himmel

Die Lage von Govone zwischen Asti und Alba ist ideal um das Piemont zu erkunden. Der Ort ist sehr nett, es gibt leckre günstige Pizza - nur das Gebäck vom Becker morgens (Croissants, etc.) ist echt trocken... Das Haus liegt mitten im Ort (man kann also alles erlaufen), trotzdem ruhig und hat einen unglaublich traumhaften Ausblick auf die Landschaft. Ein wahrer Paradiesgarten. Es war wie im Openair Naturkino. Der Pool nagelneu, sehr schön mit Liegen und Stühlen und Sonnenschirmen. Es gab eine Lounge-Garnitur mit Tisch, zwei Sesseln und und einer Bank, die wir vor unser Optenair Kino platziert haben. Außerdem gab es drei kleine Tische, die wir zu einer großen Tafel aneinander gestellt haben und dazu ca. 8-10 Klappstühle. Also genug auch für eine große Runde. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Alles da was man braucht (Teller, Gläser, Tassen, Besteck, Töpfe, Bretter, diverseste Küchenmaschinen, Spülmaschine, Gasherd, Mirowelle, großer Kühlschrank, Gefrierschrank, Handtücher, teilweise Gewürze, Öl, etc.). Wir haben viel gekocht. Es gibt eine Waschmaschine und Trockner, die wir aber nicht gebraucht haben. Ein großes Wohnzimmer mit zahlreichen Tischen und Stühlen (wenn man drinnen essen möchte), Fernseher mit internationalen Sendern, Spiele, Kamin. Es gibt daneben noch ein Wohnzimmer, in dem ein Computer steht, den man benutzen darf. Außerdem ein Klavier. Im Haus ist WLAN was allerdings nur im Erdgeschoss richtig gut funktioniert. Im ersten Stock wird es etwas schwach. Oben sind vier Schlafzimmer. Zwei davon jeweils separat gelegen mit eigenem Bad. Zwei weitere Schalfzimmer teilen sich ein Bad. Das war für uns mit kleinem Kind z.B. ideal. Die Zimmer sind mit Klimaanlage ausgestattet. Die kann man tagsüber laufen lassen und kann dann Nachts bei guter Temparatur schlafen. Die Bäder sind unterschiedlich ausgestattet teils mit Badewanne, teils mit Dusche. Kein super Luxus, aber alles modern und sauber. Das Licht im Bad könnte heller sein. Im ersten Stock ist Teppich, weshalb man auch nicht mit Schuhen nach oben darf. War für uns kein Problem. Macht das ganze gemühtlicher als mit Fliesen. Überhaupt ist alles geschmackvoll gestaltet, nicht luxuriös aber gemütlich und alles da was man braucht. Sauber und ordentlich. Das Entscheidende ist aber der geniale Garten mit Pool und Traumblick. Filippo ist unglaublich nett und unkompliziert. Reagiert innerhalb kürzester Zeit wenn man ihn anmailt oder eine sms schickt. Er gibt gute Tipps und ist sehr hilfsbereit. Danke

A holiday with a bittersweet aftertaste

Filippo, Although our holiday turned out great in the end, the days leading up to it were some of the most disturbing ones ever and as such heavily reflect on my review. You contacted me 1 week before arriving, wanting to come back on an agreement made 4 months before on the number of rooms being readied, because you misread one of my emails. An email I sent in order to avoid the discussion we would end up having after all. The worst part wasn't even that we would have to pay for an extra room, but that at some point you started quoting parts from a rental contract which I couldn't find in the version I downloaded when booking. You tried to make it look as if it was my fault, expecting me to assume things from the contract, which again I asked and got your confirmation on 4 months before. So I downloaded the contract again and it turned out that it was changed on those exact parts of our agreement you wanted to come back on, also adding a whole list of extra charges for the pool and airco/heating. When I kept stating that changing the contract and using this against us now was unacceptable, you made a statement for which I'll never forgive you and I quote: 'Still your contract does not include the use of a pool.. if you want to go that way'. To my understanding you alluded here that you'd refuse us access to the pool. I suppose a threat being made since the pool wasn't built yet when we booked and as such not being mentioned in the original rental contract. However from the first contact we had it was made very clear the pool was imperative for us having two young children (3 and 5). You guaranteeing several times the pool would be ready and giving us flexible cancellation arrangements in case it wouldn't be, proves to me it was an integral part of the agreement and agreed price. You making this statement made me very upset, especially because it would impact my children's holiday. Although we got the number of rooms initially agreed upon and was left with a choice, I agreed paying extra for the airco to avoid further discussions. To top it all off, when leaving you asked me to write an 'excellent' review on HomeAway and one other major travel website, the latter acting as if I stayed at your property as a B&B. Not sure what made you think I would do that given the discussions we had and when doing so putting my own credibility at risk. So considering all of the above, no thank you note from us, but it could have been very much different. Thomas

Nette Lage, schöne Aussicht, ideal für Ausflüge zu den wichtigsten Orten im Piemont

Wir - 5 Erwachsene/Männer - hatten das Haus gemietet, bei der Anreise stellten wir fest, eigentlich bietet der Eigentümer hier einzelne Zimmer als B&B an, insofern hatten wir anfänglich auch nicht wie gehofft die das ganze Haus zur Verfügung und sollten uns auf nur 3 statt der avisierten 5 Schlafzimmer verteilen. Nach längerer Diskussion mit dem (netten) Vermieter war dieser bereit noch ein weiteres Schlafzimmer freizugeben. Die Ausstattung ist recht umfangreich, leider gab es im sonst recht großzügigen Garten kein Grill, der Vermieter meinte dazu, wir dürften gerne ein offenes Feuer im Garten machen - nun dies haben wir nicht riskiert. Kleiner Nachgeschmack: nachträglich wurden uns noch 35 Euro an der Kaution abgezogen, dies für einen uralten Plasikstuhl welcher durch langes Stehen in der Sonne schon etwas mitgenommen aussah und beim ersten Sitzen zusammen brach ;-), das Opfer wog immerhin 75 KG...

Charming And Spacious In A Beautiful Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property and wouldn’t hesitate to recommended it as a base for explore Piedmont. The house is spacious and well appointed, with one of the best equipped kitchens we have encountered on our travels. You can truly cook a real meal here! The set-up of the bedrooms makes it very easy to travel with a group of friends, as nearly all the rooms are private and have modern en suite baths. I have a bad back, so bad mattresses can be a nightmare for me – these were extremely comfortable, with nice linens and plenty of blankets. We were here in winter, so didn’t get to use the outdoor space, but the views and the light pouring in the large windows was beautiful, so I can only imagine how lovely it would be in spring. Along those lines – some houses we’ve rented in winter are like ice boxes, but the heat and hot water here worked very well and we were always comfortable. The owner was easy to communicate with and very responsive to inquiries. The town of Govone is small, so it was a little difficult to obtain groceries on the spot, but that just takes a little planning. The bakery just a few steps up the road more than made up! It was the perfect house for us on our trip to Italy. Highly recommended!

Outstanding Villa

We had the pleasure of spending 10 wonderful days at the Villa of Filippo's parents. The location was ideal..Half way between Asti and Alba and so close to all the great wine towns both North and South. We could easily vist more than one per day and return home to enjoy our found wines and cook dinner. Filippo left us great notes on places to go in and around Govone. The real gem was Patricia, the lady that looks after the place. She went beyond the call of duty to assist us in all aspects of the Villa. Great lawn area and views, great town and wonderful discoveries. The Villa is quite large and can hold several couples. We hope to return to Filippo's place again..We can say enough good things about the stay
