Castello Di Guarene

Just a few kilometres from Alba stands the Castello di Guarene, an enchanting old stately home dating back to the 1700s. It was the realization of a dream for architecture enthusiast Count Carlo Giacinto Roero of Guarene, whose friend, the celebrated Filippo Juvarra, is credited with the design of the façade. Perfectly preserved over the years along with all its works of art, and an important stop-off on any tour of Piedmontese Baroque, today the Castle is a first class hospitality facility, with a restaurant, spa and piano nobile museum. Surrounded by vast, elegant Italian gardens created in the first half of the 18th Century, the nearly 25-metre high, three-storey building looks out from its extraordinarily privileged position onto the Unesco World Heritage Site hills of the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato.
