The Most Incredible Stay with the Most Gracious Hosts
We could not have imagined a better place to stay in all of Italy than with Gianni and Maria Victoria. Everything was perfect, from a welcoming homemade pot of coffee upon our arrival, to the dinner and tasting reservations made for us to smooth our travel plans, to the absolutely beautiful location and grounds of the lodging itself. The thoughtful discussions on art, culture, and piloting were the cherry on top of an incredible visit. I could not recommend this very special location in Guarene more highly to travelers looking to experience Alba and Piemontese culture as the locals do.

So warm and welcoming
We had a wonderful stay with Gianni and Maria Vittoria at their lovely home in Guarene. Firstly, Guarene was even better than we had anticipated - high up on a hill with the small winding streets and welcoming people. It is close to Alba, which was our favorite town to visit. The property has an amazing view of the surroundings from their beautiful garden - and the apartment, separate from the main house, was just right for the 4 of us. When we arrived, our hosts provided a basket of fresh fruit, bread, cheese and meat (as well as some wine!) for us to enjoy while we settled in. Gianni provided a tour of his art studio and the garden - and our kids loved it all! We also relied on them for recommendations for things to do and restaurants to go to - they didn't disappoint. When we had an issue with our next destination, they extended our stay with no issues. We were so lucky to have found this place in Guarene and are looking forward to going back to visit again soon!

Fantastic stay!
We loved our stay in Guarene- our hosts were welcoming and so helpful arranging wine tasting, lovely dinners and pointing out local points of interest. We had fun walking into the village and meeting locals (also very friendly). The apartment was so comfy and in particular the bed was heavenly! We split out time maki the ng meals in the apartment and eating at the local eateries. Highly recommend!

Nicest hosts with an awesome property!
We highly recommend staying with Gianni and Maria! They are wonderful hosts. They met us to check-in and show us around the property. They are available when needed, but otherwise are occupied with their daily projects. We enjoyed looking at Gianni's paintings and loved hearing about the rich history of the home and grounds. They made excellent suggestions for nearby restaurants and wine tasting options. They even helped us make dinner reservations. The breakfast spread is very good, including their home made jam and fresh breakfast cakes. Maria even taught us how to make tasty coffee in a Bialetti pot. As far as the accommodations go, I slept like a baby. It is quiet on their property and the new mattress was wonderful. The unit was clean and well appointed. The view out of the living room windows was beautiful, looking down the hillside and across the valley. Driving was not a problem in this area of Italy and the property has on-site secured parking. The town of Alba is just a few minute drive away. La Morra is close by which had a nice wine tasting on the weekend of the Barola 2015 vintage. (Gianni's suggestion on a rainy day.) We have rented many properties in the past, and this is the only one where we left feeling that we have new friends in another country. We give this property the highest recommendation possible and will gladly stay here again! Thank you for making your property available and for sharing your history with us. - April & Phil GA, USA

Fantastic experience
My wife, a friend and I just spent an unforgettable week at Hazelnut Valley. The location is very convenient as it is in the center of the Langhe offering many opportunities to explore this lovely area. From our living area and the gardens below we were treated to an amazing view of the snow capped Alps. The accommodations are very comfortable. And Gianni and Maria Vittoria were the perfect hosts anticipating all our needs and providing advise on nearby activities. All with the most friendly and warm attitudes. This is a place worth revisiting.

Lovely Property and Exceptional Hosts
This is an wonderful historic property with extremely caring and gracious hosts, Gianni and Maria. The property has been in the family for five generations. The garden is beautiful, with so many fruit trees and flowers. The property also has amazing views of the hills and vineyards. We stayed in one of the upstairs apartments and loved looking out the window at the glorious views. The apartment is furnished with some lovely antiques and the bed was heavenly. We also really liked having secure private parking. Gianni is a very talented artist and has a gallery in his home. He welcomed us and we so enjoyed his work. Maria also serves gourmet breakfasts which I have no doubt are delicious. We’re not big breakfast eaters so didn’t chose this option. The owners are truly exceptional. They were so kind. They welcomed us with a bit of wine and cheese and shared useful information about the area. Most importantly they helped me when I became seriously ill and needed immediate medical care. My husband called them to find out where to go to the emergency room and they instead had their personal physician come meet us at the apartment. He examined me and gave me prescriptions. While waiting for him Maria made me tea and Gianni located the closest 24 hour pharmacy. Truly warm, caring, helpful hosts. I cannot thank them enough. Just a short walk down the street there is a spot to go for coffee or pick up some lunch. Guarene is a charming small hilltop village. We walked to a local restaurant and wine bar called Imperfetta, which was in a renovated 16th century building; the space was used as the Count’s meeting hall. The food was outstanding and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend this property. It’s beautiful and You will not find kinder hosts. Thank you Gianni and Maria for everything!

Peaceful and Beautiful, Great Hosts and Location!
We stayed with Gianni and Maria Vittoria in October for a week. We very much enjoyed our stay, great apartment with amenities, excellent location for venturing to Alba, Barolo, Barbaresco and other small towns in the area. The location is very private with private parking, and the town of Guarene is small and quiet with a couple of nice places to get coffee and the Castle of Guarene for drinks, spa day, or dinner. The apartment is quiet at night with a beautiful garden to enjoy in the days. Above all, Gianni and Maria Vittoria's hospitality made our trip very special. They gave us lots of advice on, and helped us to book, restaurants in the area. We did a wine tour with Gianni that was one of the highlights of our trip! They were so gracious and welcoming and did everything they could to make our stay amazing. We would highly recommend!

The best of Alba
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were treated like family. The accommodations were lovely and spacious and the breakfasts were delicious and plentiful. We also hired the owner to take us wine tasting and he knew the best wineries in the area. We highly recommended this property for a night or a month's stay. We are planning to return. L. Johnson

Charming and beautiful vacation spot, gracious hosts!
My family and I recently stayed at the apartment as a way to see Piedmont. None of us had ever been to the area before and Maria was exceptionally helpful in setting up numerous wine tastings and restaurant reservations for us. While we had an idea of some of the places we wanted to visit, the restaurants that Maria and Gianni recommended were incredible, and I'm not sure we would have found them on our own. Our hosts were very friendly and did everything they could to make sure we had a great trip. We had a lovely apertif with them on our first day in their garden and were invited to view some of Gianni's art in his home studio. The apartment was a perfect home base for seeing Barolo, Alba and Barbaresco but we could also enjoy a night in when we pleased. We certainly will be staying again next time we are in the area, thank you!!

A Perfect Stay
In september 2016 we stayed for seven nights at Hazelnut Valley. We really liked the appartment we stayed in. It was a bright, spacious and stylish furnished appartment. Situated in the quite peaceful little village of Guarene it was a good starting point for exploring the surroundings. The property has also a big and fine garden where you can relax and enjoy the beautiful view. For the owners, Maria and Gianni; they were very friendly and thoughtful. Thinking about bringing your restaurantguide?; don't. Maria and Gianni have lots of good restaurant and other tips( wine tasting at Paola Massa!) Overall we can recommend Hazelnut Valley and hope to visit it again.
