Main Description
Cascina 47 is a more than two hundred year old farmhouse. It was recently renovated to a high standard, emphasizing its old walls, vaulted ceilings and other original features, whilst incorporating all modern comforts. The former loft and garages have been turned into living space. The furniture in the house echoes this mix of old and new. Moreover you will find ample space and comfort, a necessity when sharing a house with twelve people.
The farmhouse contains in total six large bedrooms, all with two single or a double bed, and four bathrooms containing spacious showers (one with a large bath) of modern Italian design.
Furthermore there is a loft style living room of some 45 m² with adjacent a large terrace overlooking the vineyards towards the Alps. The entrance hall leads to a large kitchen equipped to a high standard, and a separate study. The house has its own telephone and internet connection, whilst an international satellite provides international radio and television. Outside, you will find a separate laundry and utility room.
Swimming pool
The farmhouse and its swimming pool are situated on a hill overlooking vineyards and wooded hills with stunning views towards the Alps and the more rugged scenery of the Alte Langhe. The position of the house and swimming pool allows you to enjoy the sun from early morning to late in the evening. Old fruit and nut trees, as well as a number of covered areas, provide ample shelter from sun and wind. The swimming pool is fifteen metres long and a large garden surrounding it has been fenced in for safety reasons. This area naturally runs over into a wild flower meadow.
A large grass area completes this part of the property that in total comprises some 5000 m².
Walking distance
One can reach our village on foot via a path that runs along the back of the property. San Donato boasts a church, a tabacchi (a small supermarket that also sells fresh bread) and a restaurant cum bar.

Mango has a beautiful castle. Inside you will find a restaurant and the Enoteca Regionale for wine tasting.
The villages of Barolo and Barbaresco - famous worldwide for their wines - are within a short driving distance. Not surprisingly in an area famous for its wines, good food is just as important and a stone throw away. ‘Foodies’ will find themselves in heaven; The Slow Food movement did not originate for nothing in this part of the Piedmont.
You will find numerous Michelin star, and family run restaurants to pizzerias within a fifteen minute drive.
Different wine and food festivities are organised from Easter until early December.
During the summer months the villages organise their own fete.
