House in BENE VAGIENNA, Italy

Briefly, our house is situated in the country in a small hamlet but near the small town of Bene Vagienna. You can enjoy a swim in our pool and as we have a good sized garden you will be able to enjoy whatever vegetables are in season at the time. Usually in the summer there is a choice of tomatoes, salad, courgettes and whatever else we manage to grow.
We are on the edge of the Langhe wine growing area (Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera, Moscato etc.) and near Alba famous also for its White Truffles. The area is one of undulating hills topped with small villages often with their own castles. We are also quite close to France so day trips to Nice, Cannes and Monte Carlo are possible. Also the Italian Riviera is less than an hour by car so you can enjoy swimming in Alassio, San Remo and many other resorts.
Please note that as I am allergic to cat fur it would be difficult to exchange with someone who has a cat in their house.
There are easy walking areas nearby and more strenuous ones in the Alps.
The cities of both Turin and Milan can also be seen on day trips by train from a nearby station.
