Marchesi Alfieri - Estate & Winery

Those who know, or merely enjoy their wines will flock here to taste some of the world’s most prestigious wines and learn about their production. The castle sits on a hillside looking over the World Heritage site of Langhe-Roero-Monferrato and the village of San Martino Alfieri. B&B guests stay either in Dimora diffusa next to the winery and cellars or in Cascina Margherita, a restored farmhouse ideal for groups who seek independence. Both have large and lovely bedrooms, beautiful linens and modern bathrooms along with honesty fridges.

Breakfast can be served outside or in: freshly-squeezed orange juice, eggs to order, local cheeses and meats, breads, cakes and biscuits from the local bakery. Find a quiet spot in the gardens where seats await for a rest and loungers for a snooze, or set off on woodland walks, explore the English-style garden. It’s all dreamy.

A five-minute walk will take you to the village.
