The Villa Teresa is located in the small medieval hamlet of Gabiano Monferrato, almost on top of the hill, within walking distance of a bar with panoramic terrace and an excellent restaurant in the nearby castle. Down the hill you’ll reach the village centre for your local groceries and on the Sunday market you’ll find a variety of seasonal products from the local farmers. The amazing castle ‘Castello di Gabiano’ and its park and labyrinth is certainly worth of a visit, offers a quality restaurant and organizes wine tastings in their cellars. They also have e-bikes for rent, and there are suites available in their hotel should you have some extra guests visiting. Monferrato is one of the key areas of the famous Piedmont region and, extending over hilly areas towards the area of the Langhe, is one of the most important wine producing zones in Italy. The Vineyard Landscape of Piedmont is inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List thanks to the outstanding value of its wine culture. Each small town that overlooks these beautiful hills has its own story to tell with castles, sanctuaries & monasteries. The territory is rich in great wines and excellent food is the rule. The region enjoys a central location between the cities of Milan and Turin, the northern Italian Lakes and mountains, and the Mediterranean Sea in Liguria: all about 1 - 1.30 hour drive away from the villa.
