The Experience
An easy drive from Milan or Turin, Castello Sannazzaro is as welcoming as warm sun on worn terracotta. Glimpse into the family chapel with its frescoes and ornate decoration; cross the moat where family dogs doze on grassy banks and enter a courtyard through a deep shady archway. Overlooked by gothic windows and a splendid crenellated tower, this is a cool and tempting place to laze with a drink or a book. Inside find opulent gothic, trompe l’oeil statues, lavishly decorated stairways, a ballroom where dukes and counts have waltzed to string quartets. Below you, ornate marble floors, above you – frescoed ceilings. You may sleep in a canopied bed and bathe in a roll-top bath. Some bedrooms have lovely curvy Italian iron beds and little white bathrooms tucked into odd corners. The suite has its own entrances so you can come and go as you please. Breakfast is a true Italian treat with a choice of delicious cakes and pastries. The family are discreet, but there if you want help finding all the best bits of this delightfully unspoilt region.

We loved our stay at Castello Sannazzaro- what a privilege to stay in an actual castle which is also the Sannazzaro family home. It’s impressive and inviting. The room was good size and comfortable. The breakfasts were delicious and had homemade specialties each day. The host was incredibly helpful and generous with his time and shared information about the Castello and the local area. Highly recommended.

We have spent a wonderful 2 nights at the Castello, a place rich in history and full of charm. The room was big apartment sized and very comfortable. In the morning we were served an elaborate and delicious breakfast. We had a wonderful stay which was aided by the very helpful and warm host, the castle owner himself, Giuseppe. Highly recommended.

- The Monferrato region is one of the best wine and food area in Italy. Barbera, Grignolino and many other wines are produced and can be bought in wine cellars not far from here. Asks for details. ALBA and the famous Langhe region is also not far.
- Casale Monferrato ( 15 minutes by car) is a lovely small town, full of interesting things to discover among which one of the most beautiful synagogue in Europe.
- If you like to live outside busy city centers but would like to visit some of the most interesting cities in the north west of Italy, bear in mind that Castello Sannazzaro is about an hour drive from Milano, Genova and Torino, all reachable also by train
- A large garden (approx. 24,000 square metres) with imposing trees will be available for our guests.

It's amazing to stay in a castle, but even more amazing to get a tour by the lovely owner Guiseppe whose Sannazzoro family have lived there for 900 years.
