About Us
Steve and I moved from Sydney to Piemonte in April 2019. The move was the culmination of our enthusiasm and love of Italy’s culture, countryside, wine and the Italian way of life. We want to share our love of the place with our guests and help them have an unforgettable experience.
We live on the ground floor of the property and are available if needed. We are both wine and food lovers and are very happy to share a glass or two, but are equally happy to give guests space and privacy also.
What our guests have said of us
'They are so discrete you get the feeling you are completely private'.
Or
'Ready for a chat when you want it. But when you don't need them, it's like they are not there. Although make sure to have a chat about wine with Steve. He knows all the graps and all the winemakers.'
