Cascina Bella Vista Hotel Asti - Italy

With its hillside location in the middle of rural wine making country, the Cascina Bella Vista Hotel Asti makes for an ideal countryside retreat while remaining within easy touching distance of the city. Asti, a city of old churches and recently discovered Roman ruins, takes 15 minutes to reach by road, while much larger Turin can be reached in less than half an hour. In between is a vast swathe of picturesque countryside with idyllic walks, isolated vineyards and excellent Piedmont cuisine. The rooms here, doubles and twins, are tastefully decorated with locally produced water colour paintings. All come with flat screen televisions, DVD players, fridges and safes.

Number of Rooms: 3
