About this property

A Castle Stay in Wine Country

A Stay Steeped in Story
Perched on a hilltop in the heart of Rocca Grimalda, this charming apartment lies within the walls of a centuries-old castle, offering an unforgettable blend of noble heritage and curated comfort. Romantic and serene, the castle’s shared garden invites you to slow down and savor views over the Orba Valley, while features like a bar, pool access, Jacuzzi, and outdoor play equipment for children make it equally delightful for couples and families. The interiors blend historical charm with contemporary design—perfect for those seeking a tranquil yet character-filled escape.

Between Vineyards and Fortresses
Rocca Grimalda is perfectly placed to explore northern Italy’s cultural and natural wonders. Just a short drive away, you’ll find the spa town of Acqui Terme, the medieval fort of Gavi, and the vibrant city of Genoa with its historic port and famed aquarium. Wander through the lush trails of the Cammino di Santa Limbania or hop over to the boutiques of Alessandria and the designer outlets of Serravalle Scrivia. Wine lovers and history enthusiasts alike will revel in the nearby “Strada del Vino” and “Castles Route,” with panoramic drives connecting charming hilltop villages and noble estates.

Taste the Territory
Piedmont is a feast for the senses—and the castle’s surroundings offer some of the region’s finest flavors. Just minutes away in Ovada or Novi Ligure, enjoy rustic trattorias, wine bars, and gourmet spots such as Trattoria Da Fausto and Vineria del Borgo. Local delicacies include Barbera wines, artisan cheeses, hazelnuts, and sweet almond macaroons.

Was für ein wunderschöner Ort! Wir hatten die Top-Wohnung mit einer tollen Aussicht auf die Berge und die Aussicht auf die Städte. Die Treppen waren jeden Tag ein bisschen bergauf, aber die Damen des Schlosses halfen beim Schleppen der Taschen bei der Ankunft. Unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Garten ist wunderschön, das ganze Schloss ist wunderschön. Das Dorf ist klein, aber gut zum Frühstück. Viel zu tun in der Gegend. Die Unterkunft war luxuriös: zwei Badezimmer und ausgezeichnete Betten! Die Wohnung enthielt alle Arten von Duschartikeln, die wir benutzen konnten, und Toilettenpapier. Die Betten waren gemacht und viele Handtücher zur Verfügung gestellt. Wir hatten wirklich eine schöne Urlaubswoche hier!

Was für eine fantastische Lage und was für freundliche Gastgeber. Als wir nach einer langen Reise ankamen, sorgten die Gastgeber dafür, dass wir uns schnell wie zu Hause fühlten. Die Wohnung war großartig, aber über die Treppe des Turms ein wenig schwer zu erreichen. Das machte die Lage besonders, aber als sie unseren Kampf mit unserer Tochter mit besonderen Bedürfnissen sahen, öffneten sie schnell ihre Privatunterkünfte, um den Zugang zu erleichtern Insgesamt eine sehr schöne Wohnung, die uns das Gefühl gegeben hat, etwas Besonderes zu sein. Die Stadt selbst ist klein mit freundlichen Menschen. Es gibt einen kleinen Laden, Restaurants und eine Bäckerei. Weitere interessante Orte sind in der Nähe. Sehr einen Besuch wert.

Durch die Verzögerung „kam am Abend, bis ein 10.15. Die erste Frage der beiden Damen, die gegessen haben Sie die Sache laufen? Nach unserer negativen Antwort war unmittelbar an dem benachbarten, neu geschlossenen Restaurant etwas Brot, Käse und Salat organisiert. wenn wir es nicht bezahlen. ist Eigentum fein, voll ausgestattet und noch im Stil des alten Schlosses eingerichtet. der Bereich, den wir vor allem die Gärten genossen es viel gelesen, weil es ausgestattet werden mußte und unser tatsächlicher Urlaub noch gefolgt.
