Private Detached Villa with Swimming Pool set in large mature gardens

The detached villa with private pool is located on the edge of Mombaldone, a small village in the heart of the Piedmont region.The four-bedroomed property comfortably accommodates eight people and is ideally suited to extended families or two families holidaying together. There's everything on site for a self-contained holiday, but the location of the villa means that guests are on the doorstep of the world-famous vineyards of the Piedmont region. The well-proportioned rooms with marble floors and high ceilings emphasise the spacious interior and give a light, airy feel to the property. The large, fully enclosed private gardens have a luxurious 11 metre swimming pool in the front lawns, surrounded by fruit trees, with numerous areas for relaxing and dining in the sun or shade.


Location: This property is located on the edge of the small village of Mombaldone, in the Piedmont region of North West Italy. The villa is easily accessible by road or rail, just half a kilometre from the main Acqui Terme –Savona Road and has a rail station in the village. Visitors can enjoy the countryside, lakes and coast and are in easy reach of the main cities of the region, i.e. Milan, Turin and Genoa. Although Piedmont is world renowned by food and wine connoisseurs it still remains relatively undiscovered by mainstream tourists.

The villa’s location, with the Italian Riviera one hour to the south, and skiing one hour to the west, provides a climate of contrasting seasons, with hot Mediterranean summers and snow filled alpine winters. Springtime brings mild days, when the blossoms and fruit trees burst into bloom, whilst autumn provides a blaze of colour and signals the picking of the grapes from the numerous vineyards across the region.

Mombaldone: Mombaldone itself is the only village in the Asti region that is still surrounded by its original walls. The entrance to the ancient village is through a Gothic-style entrance door to the shelter, which has been preserved in its original medieval form. The most important monuments converge on Piazza Umberto at the centre of the village and although the 13th century castle is now little more than a ruin ravaged by time, it is also well worth a visit.

In the village there is a post office, shop, rail station, restaurants and patisserie. The local shop is open every day and supplies all the essentials required for a self-catering holiday including freshly baked bread. The train is a useful and practical way to visit the beautiful, small villages along Italian Riviera; tickets can be purchased from the post office. A 5 minute drive or a 30 minute walk takes you to the village of Montechiaro D’Acqui, where there is a bank, ATM, chemist, butcher, baker, garage, bars, and a great pizza restaurant.

Local Attractions: Only 20 minutes’ drive from the villa is the spa town of Acqui Terme. It is steeped in history, yet has designer shops, boutiques, fabulous restaurants and great cafés as well as a hypermarket. The thermal water comes to the surface in Piazza Bollente, in the centre of town. People come from miles around to bottle the sulphuric scented water from the fountain, heated naturally to 75°C, due to its health giving properties.Acqui Terme.
Only a 90 minute drive from the villa is an amazing water park https://www.ondaland.it

The area is famed around the world for its selection of fine wines. These include Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera, Dolcetto and Moscato D'Asti. Many wine tours take place throughout the region.
Local cuisine is renown throughout Italy, the precious white truffles of this region are a special delicacy, with special truffle markets being held in Alba during Autumn.

Beautiful villa with an enormous, secure garden.
Thank you for the welcome pack it was much appreciated after our long journey. This is a beautiful ,spacious villa in a lovely quiet part of Piedmont. The garden is massive, our dog enjoyed chasing her tennis ball around it, early in the morning. The pool was very relaxing. The villa has a very well equipped kitchen. The fans were very welcome on a night, as it was so hot. The views of the sunrises and sunsets from the house were amazing.

Lovely villa in a quiet setting. We enjoyed the large pool and the staff inside areas. It is a good base to explore a few places. We got the train to Turin and drove to surrounding areas during our stay. Carole was excellent with communication and came back to us very quickly if we had any questions.

Beautiful villa
This is a beautiful villa in a lovely part of Piedmonte. It is well furnished and secure in a picturesque setting. Not far to drive to Acqui Terme and other small villages but Mombaldone and Roccaverona are definitely worth a visit. Ordinarily I would have given it a 5 star rating but we were there during the end of April with very cool temperatures and the house does not have central heating. There are pellet stoves in the two hallways and in the living room to help with heating but they don't cover the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen or dining room. Our advice would be to visit during the summer months.

Comfortable, rural, calm, big, great outside area.
We stayed from Friday to Friday and used the grill every day together with the pool. The house has everything you need. There are some wineries within 35 min. by car. and you can bike to the closest village, there is even a Lidl 20 min by car from the house. There are some nice board games in the house. Carole made a guidebooklet that helped us a lot during our stay. We also contact each other via message for help. The house was overall clean, but in some corners, we could see quite some bugs, spiders, and insects. But I think that is related to the rural area and the time of the year. The bedsheets and towels were clean and ready for us. At night it was very cold but during the day the sun could heat everything nicely.

Propriété agréable et bien équipée
Maison confortable et idéale pour une grande famille (nous étions huit personnes / trois générations), cuisine bien équipée, propriété très bien clôturée et donc parfait pour notre chien (Beagle)! Piscine propre et bien entretenue. Petites remarques: le nettoyage pourrait être amélioré sous les meubles, vraiment très poussiéreux sous les lits à notre arrivée; le grill extérieur pas utilisable / bouteille de gaz vide; les poubelles extérieures (au moins les déchets ménagers) mériteraient d'être vidées une fois au milieu du séjour. Dans l'ensemble nous avons été toutefois très satisfaits de notre séjour dans cette maison recommendons cette location.

Schöne Villa
Schöne Villa mit kleinen Mankos, der Urlaub hat uns sehr gut gefallen, auch der Kontakt zur Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit... leider sind manche Einrichtungsgegenstände in die Jahre gekommen, Bsp. von vier Sonnenliegen zwei beschädigt, Sonnenschirm defekt am Pool, nur stumpfe Messer... Ansonsten ist die Villa sehr schön eingerichtet, zum Beispiel das Wohnzimmer mit TV und DVDs... Leider war der schöne Pavillon am Pool überhaupt nicht nutzbar, da das viele Fallobst, dass nicht weggeräumt wird, jede Menge Wespen und Hornissen anzieht, es ist auch ein Wespennest direkt an der Treppe zum Pool, also Achtung an die Allergiker, bei uns wurde ein Kind gleich gestochen ... Die Umgebung ist schön, die Anwohner sind sehr freundlich, für den der es ruhig mag zu Empfehlen.

Sehr zu empfehlen wir würden sofort nochmal Urlaub da machen
Wir waren mit einer befreundeten Familie dort. Wir 49 und 54 Jahre mit 9 jähriger Tochter unsere Freunde 33 und 51 Jahre mit 8 jährigem Sohn u 6 jähriger Tochter. Aufenthalt 5. bis 15.06. Perfekter Familien Urlaub für uns beide Familien die Kinder konnten sich austoben am Pool durch die großzügige Anlage hatten die Kinder Auslauf und jede Menge Spaß auch genug Rückzugsmöglichkeiten wenn man das wollte sowohl für die Kinder wie auch für uns Erwachsene. Der Herd in der Küche ist hervorragend. Leider ist die Kaffeemaschine sehr klein wir haben dann den Kaffee von Hand aufgebrüht zu empfehlen für diesen Fall Kaffeefilter mit zu bringen wir haben in den Geschäften keine gesehen und hatten Gott sei dank welche dabei. Ebenso bekommt man in Italien keine Senseo Kaffeepads diese Maschine hatten wir vorsorglich dabei aber eben nicht genug Pads für 4 Erwachsene für 10 Tage. Sauber war es im Haus an sich schon nur durch die hohen Wände und Decken u durch die an Türrahmen nicht ganz dichten Schlitze bzw. Beim lüften darf man sich nicht an Ameisen und Spinnen stören. Durch die hohen Räume ist es etwas hellhörig im Haus uns hat dies nicht gestört da wir den gleichen Bett und Aufstehrythmus hatten. Wir können das Haus sehr empfehlen. Auch Carole Thomson hat uns im Vorfeld alle unsere Fragen zuvorkommend und schnell beantwortet. Sehr gefreut haben wir uns auch über ein Willkommens Geschenk. Die Hauswirtschaftskräfte die sich um die Anlage und den Pool kümmern sind sehr freundlich und diskret wir haben sie kaum gesehen und kaum bemerkt. Alles in allem sehr gut organisiert. Unsere Verbesserungsvorschläge die uns aber in keinster Weise sehr gestört haben wären schärfere Küchenmesser und Biergläser (da gab es nur eins).

La maison a beaucoup de charme et la piscine est belle. Le cadre est magnifique et au calme. Nous aurions juste peut-être aimé que le gardien nous accueille et nous explique plus précisément le fonctionnement de la maison (notamment des poubelles) et aussi faire un inventaire. La maintenance de la piscine n’est pas passée de suite mais après en avoir informé Carole, ils sont passés le jour même. Carole est très réactive et répond très rapidement à la moindre de nos questions.

Huset i bjergene
Dejligt stort hus, hvor der er rigtig god plads til to familier. En dejlig velkomst pakke da vi ankom. Skønt at have, da man skal kører lidt for at handle ind. 20 km, men der finder man også en dejlig by med marked og gode indkøbsmuligheder. Dejlig stor pool og have med liggestole. Ejeren af huset havde vi kontakt med et par gange. Carole var hurtig til at svare og prøvede at hjælpe på bedte vis. Vi var de første gæster efter corona nedlukning, så manden som skulle komme to gange pr uge var noget ustabil. Han kom ikke den første uge, så vi var lidt bekymret for at gå i poolen. Men da han kom, blev den gjort pæn ren igen. Dejligt hus, dejlig område.

Excellent stay in Mombaldone
We have had a great week staying in this beautiful house in Mombaldone. Carole was a great host, answering all our questions quickly from the day we made the reservation. The house was perfect for two families traveling with five small children, Carole prepared it well with high chairs and a baby cot. The outdoors with a beautiful swimming pool and spacious garden was a joy for the children (and adults) and the cool inside of the house was welcoming in the middle of the day! The house is also a great base for exploring Piemonte!
