Isolated on hill, flat with terrace,garden among romanesque art,quiet,nature

We restored the house in 2013 according to the principles of energy saving and eco-sustainability. The knowledge that it needs to change lifestyles and consumption has let us to cultivate a kitchen garden and orchard
The rooms open onto a terrace where you can have your meals and offer and to watch the flight of birds and buzzards often.

The kitchen is fully equipped (pots and pans, dishwascher, fridge-freezer, microwave oven, toaster)
The washing machine and the dryer are located on the ground floor.
The is an iron.
It's have a hairdryer.

Cocconato is a village that comes alive during the summer, when more and more tourists arrive who want to discover this part of Italy not yet known, but rich in ancient culture and gastronomic tradition.
Nobody passes by without tasting a good wine or a traditional meal!
In September there is an exhibition-market of our "Cocco wine" wines and on the last Sunday of September there is the Palio degli donkeys, a competitive race through the villages preceded by a parade in medieval costume that recalls the history of the village, the ancient crafts, or moments of the life of the past.

Cocconato has Roman origins and the remains of the 10th century Radicati castle are still visible.
Cocconato is in the middle of an area rich in Romanesque churches located in nearby locations (Montechiaro, Montiglio, Cerreto S. Fede and Albugnano) being crossed by the paths
of the Via Francigena, a road travelled by European pilgrims to reach Rome and the Holy Land.
Built between the eleventh and twelfth centuries, they were a resting place during the walk and churches of the small villages that stood on the hills.
They all are worth a visit if for no other reason than their always splendid panoramic position.

Staying in Cocconato means enjoying the view of the great panoramic spaces that its geographical position allows, looking "beyond"; it means finding oneself during walks in the woods and in the surroundings, it means being amazed at the beauty of the wild blooms that still exist despite industrialization. Cherry, apple, peach and pear trees in bloom leave you speechless.

After visiting the surroundings of Cocconato and shopping for wines you can visit the Romanesque churches and Monferrato'castles, Vezzolano Abbey, Chieri with its many churches, Asti, with its history and the Palio in September, Turin, with its museums, and its nightlife.



Those who love hiking can follow the path of the three shrines (Superga-Vezzolano-Create), passing 200 meters from our house.


Those who love to swim a pool can be found about 5 km. Codana Lake.
In compliance with Italian laws guests will sign a lease for the days of the stay and the text will be sent at the time of booking for your view. This is not a cost. The tourist tax is €2 per night per person up to 7 nights. Children under 12 years old are not subject to the tax

Great People, Charming site, Lovely Town
This property is well equipped, and run by extremely nice people. it is located about a quarter to a half mile to the center of town up a moderate hill. I walked to town one morning in about 15 minutes. The town has a grocery store and several very good restaurants. There is also a very fine salumeria with excellent cured and fresh meat. in short, everything you need. We would certainly stay her again upon a return.

Ruhe und Natur
Das schön renovierte Haus steht etwas ausserhalb von Cocconato. Wer die Ruhe und die Nähe zur Natur schätzt, ist hier genau richtig. Die Betreuung durch Ilda und Carlo war sehr angenehm, sie haben sich im Hintergrund gehalten, waren aber immer da, wenn wir etwas gebraucht haben. Das sympathische, liebenswürdige Ehepaar werden wir in bester Erinnerung behalten. Vielen herzlichen Dank!

Wonderful Stay
We spent 14 wonderful days in Ilda and Carlo's beautiful apartment. We were greeted warmly and really enjoyed the fruits and vegetables from Carlo's garden! The apartment is decorated beautifully and cozy with a wonderful view and has everything one needs. Cocconato is a great place with lots of nice restaurants and small shops and impressive landscape surrounding it. Thanks to Ilda and Carlo for a wonderful stay, we hope to return soon!

Ildas und Carlos liebevolle Ferienwohnung wird ihrem Namen (Moment des Friedens) wirklich gerecht!
Im Aug./Sept. 2019 verbrachten wir wunderbar geruhsame und friedvolle Tage in dieser sauberen, stilvoll renovierten FeWo. - 'Attimo di Pace' ist Lindas / Carlos Motto und durch ihr hilfsbereites aber dezentes Wesen gelingt es ihnen, ideale Gastgeber zu sein. Nach unseren langen Tagestouren freuten wir uns immer auch auf die großzügige überdachte Terrasse, die durch Glasschiebetüren Wind- und Wetter abhielt und einen herrlichen (West-) Blick auf Cocconatos grüne Hügel bot. Sämtliche Fenster und Türen der FeWo sind mit soliden Insekten-Rollos ausgestattet, die uns auch ungestörte Nachtruhe garantierten. - Piemont ist für Natur- und Kulturliebhaber eine absolut empfehlenswerte Region - v.a. noch verschont vom Massentourismus. Jederzeit wieder!

Découverte du magnifique Piémont
Nous avons passé une superbe semaine dans une très belle région d'Italie. Le village de Cocconato est superbe et possède une âme qui mérite un détour. Les propriétaires sont super sympas, bon dialogue multilingue, les abricots et les pêches de leur verger sont du soleil. Merci pour ce séjour agréable. Personnellement je me suis régalé en tant qu'ancien coureur cycliste avec mes sorties dans les vallées et monts de cette belle région et une nature époustouflante. Nous recommandons vivement. Grazie Mille!

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung in ruhiger Lage mit herrlicher Terrasse und sehr netten Gastgebern.
Man kann sich sofort wohl fühlen in der sehr gut ausgestatteten und absolut sauberen Wohnung. Die Terrasse ist durch die Überdachung gut geschützt und man kann sie sehr gut nutzen. Ilda und Carlo sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und geben Ratschläge für Ausflüge und Unternehmungen. Cocconato ist ein netter Ort, wo man alles bekommt und das frische Obst liefern Ilda und Carlo. Uns hat es dort sehr gut gefallen.

Très beau gîte, tout confort, bien situé, au calme.
Nous avons énormément apprécié l'accueil des propriétaires. Le gîte est très calme et a été rénové récemment avec goût, et rien ne manque. Situé à 500 mètres du centre du très joli village de Cocconato , il permet un accès rapide aux commerces locaux, et permet de découvrir une région riche en culture avec des paysages magnifiques.

Liebevoll und großzügig ausgestattete Ferienwohnung in schöner Natur und sehr netten Vermietern
Wir waren hervorragend in einer liebevoll renovierten und sehr gut ausgestatteten (und viel Platz!) Ferienwohnung untergebracht, wo es uns an nichts gefehlt hat! Auf der schönene Terrasse und im Garten konnten wir gut entspannen. Die Vermieter Ilda und Carlo waren super nett und hilfsbereit. Wir konnten viele Ausflüge unternehmen und unseren Urlaub so richtig genießen. Cocconato ist ein süßer kleiner Ort, in dem wir gerne Salami und Käse einkauften und in der Bar unseren Aperitif nahmen. Gerne wieder!

Perfect Italian holiday home.
We really loved our stay at this beautiful home. The house was clean and very comfortable and had everything we needed as a family of three. The terrace was stunning and we spent some happy times enjoying good food and watching the sun set. Ilda and Carlo were the perfect hosts, friendly and helpful at all times and our fresh fruit salad from their garden was the perfect way to start each day. The area was beautiful and quiet and we enjoyed exploring. Thank you

Wonderful holiday
A great place to be. We spent two weeks with our two aktive boys. Ilda and Carlo are very friendly, helpful landlords. They gave us a lot of ideas for sightseeing, found answers for all our questions and it was just nice to have a talk with them. They are also owners of a huge fruit- and vegetable-garden and they spoilt us so much with apricots, plums, figs, tomatoes... Delicious! The appartment is big, very clean and nice furnished. We loved to eat or drink a glass of wine on the terasse. From there you´ve got a great view in the surrounding area and on clear days you even can see the alpes. For our boys it was great to play football on the meadow behind the garden. All together we enjoyed our holiday very much and recommend the place of ilda and carlo.

Une excellente semaine malgré une météo moyenne
La maison de nos hôtes est parfaitement calme bien que la distance au centre de Cocconato ne soit pas très grande. L'équipement est très complet et nous avons apprécié l'intimité que procurent les deux chambres avec leurs salles de bains. L'accueil est très chaleureux et nos hôtes nous ont grandement facilité l'organisation de la visite de la région ( où aller s'il risque de pleuvoir, où stationner pour être près des sites intéressants...) Ils nous ont aussi conseillé la visite de petites églises, pas mises en avant dans les guides, mais que nous avons trouvées très belles (en particulier San Secondo à Cortazzone). La situation de Cocconato, à la fois proche de Turin et d'Asti permet de varier les visites dans toute cette magnifique région du Piémont . Nous n'avons pas tout vu, nous retournerons chez Ilda et Carlo ! Si vous souhaitez visiter le Piémont, vous ne serez pas déçus en choisissant cette adresse !
