“Castello di Guarene stands out as one of the very best places to stay in the region. With lavish period furniture, heavy drapes, paintings and restored parquet floors, this former summer residence for the Counts of Roero, built on the site of a medieval fortress, offers an elegant and luxurious stay. The exterior is equally as impressive as the interior thanks to the gardens which are designed in the style of 18th century Italy with views over the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Langhe hills.”
