The Castle of Pavone is one of the most beautiful Italian monuments and it is considered one of most scenic and fabulous castles in the world. Between the historical and powerful walls, you will find the marvellous Noble Courtyard with the suggestive Fountain of the Mysteries, the rooms and the halls of an incommensurable beauty and the luxuriant medieval park, able to accommodate up to 300 guests. The castle rises majestic on the top of the village by offering a panorama of great beauty. It is considered a lucky Castle thanks to its history; someone says that it transmits luck, love and prosperity to all those who stays there, even for short periods.

Relais Monforte ****
 

An ancient farmhouse recently transformed in a contemporary boutique hotel located in the breathtaking traditional country side of Le Langhe, in Southern Piedmont, with a special taste of its own, a passion for details and staff commitment to service. The property is located only a few miles away from Monforte d’Alba, an early Middle Age walled town which belonged first to the domain of Marchesi del Carretto and then of Marchesi Scarampi. The hotel retains the layout of the original farmhouse with an internal patio which serves as entrance to some of the rooms but the decoration and refurbishment has given the property a modern flair. All around the hotel vineyards where the world known Barolo red wine comes from and part of this rolling hills covered with vineyards have been transformed into a 9-holes golf course with amazing views. The outdoor swimming pool and the sun terrace overlook this amazing landscape where, on clear blue sky days, one can see the Alps. A fine dining restaurant, with a chef that comes from international experiences in Michelin starred restaurants, and is very keen on local traditional recipes rearranged in a more modern way, and a cosy spa complete the leisure offer. Relais Monforte caters to discerning travelers seeking for an intimate property in an unspoiled location that still offers Italy’s real true pleasure for hospitality.
