Villa la Favorita is a  country home, which dates back to the early 1900’s. Recognized as part of the local cultural and environmental heritage, following meticulous refurbishment it has now been welcoming guests since October 2001.
Located on a hillside just 1½ kms from the historical town of Alba, it is surrounded by a 10,000 m² estate of vineyards and fruit orchards.

The farm produces fine doc-status wines - Nebbiolo d'Alba and Grignolino Piemonte - as well as a large variety of organically-grown fruit (cherries, apples, pears, apricots, plums, persimmons, figs, mulberries, peaches and pomegranates), part of which is used to make delicious jams. 

The villa’s 4 highly original, en-suite bedrooms are tastefully furnished with period family pieces, and are fitted with satellite TV and air-conditioning. Each "room with a view" over the towers and roofs of ALBA’s old town centre brings guests into close contact with the hills. 

Before the sun disappears over the rooftops and bell-towers, we recommend taking the pathway through the vineyards to enjoy the picturesque view of the sunset from on high. 

Every morning we serve a plentiful breakfast offering a wide choice outdoors in the large garden, on the terrace or in the bright lemon-house. Lunches or dinners featuring local seasonal dishes are available on request. 

The owner will recommend the best restaurants in the Langhe and Roero, and visits can be arranged during your stay to the countless castles in the area, and to celebrated wineries and family-run cellars just waiting to be discovered. 

For sports enthusiasts they also organise bicycle tours and guided walks starting from the villa. Tennis, swimming, riding and golf are also all well-catered for in the vicinity.
