Cascina Girba invites its guests to experience a historic residence from the 17th century, once home to monks and now carefully renovated to maintain its original charm while incorporating modern comforts and a commitment to sustainability. The house features four bedrooms accommodating a total of twelve guests, along with four bathrooms, making it perfect for families or groups of friends. Common areas include a fully-equipped kitchen, a veranda, and a spacious garden, where visitors can gather to cook, share enjoyable moments, or relax amidst greenery.

Guests have the option to book the entire farmhouse or just a portion, such as “La Quercia” or “Il Ciliegio,” in which case they will share the kitchen, veranda, and garden with other travelers. Free private parking is available on the property.

The location allows for a stay closely connected to nature, with opportunities for hiking, cycling, or horseback riding, while also providing easy access to Turin and the attractions of the surrounding area. Nearby, the Avigliana lakes offer trails suitable for all levels, the Sacra di San Michele stands as one of Italy’s most breathtaking abbeys, and the Castello di Rivoli houses an important contemporary art museum. Turin, home to treasures like the Egyptian Museum and the Savoy residences, is only a twenty-minute train ride away, and day trips to the Langhe or Monferrato regions provide a chance to explore world-renowned food and wine.

Cascina Girba is located in a small village with seven houses, just 3 km from Avigliana and Giaveno, where shops, restaurants, pharmacies, and other essential services can be found. It is advisable to have a car for convenient travel.

Mauro, the owner, has a passion for nature, travel, and good food, and warmly welcomes guests, offering support and advice for making the most of the area. Upon request, he is available to personally guide excursions and visits to discover local attractions.

Area

The area surrounding Cascina Girba presents a diverse range of landscapes and attractions that cater to various interests, including nature, culture, gastronomy, and sports. Just a few kilometers away lies the Avigliana Lakes Natural Park, a protected oasis that features two picturesque bodies of water nestled among the mountains. Visitors can enjoy walking, cycling, or birdwatching, as well as relax along the shores.

Dominating the valley is the Sacra di San Michele, a symbol of Piedmont and one of Italy's most captivating abbeys. This monastic complex, built on a striking rocky hill, offers breathtaking views of the Val di Susa and is steeped in a rich atmosphere of history and spirituality.

For art and culture enthusiasts, the Rivoli Castle, located about 15 km away, houses the Museum of Contemporary Art, one of the most significant in the country, which beautifully blends the history of the Savoy residence with modern artistic trends. Turin, easily accessible by train in around twenty minutes, boasts a unique heritage that includes the famous Egyptian Museum, the second largest in the world after Cairo, the National Cinema Museum in the Mole Antonelliana, and the Savoy royal residences, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Gastronomic experiences abound as well: the hills of the Langhe and Monferrato, reachable in just over an hour, allow visitors to immerse themselves in one of the most prestigious wine regions globally, where Barolo and Barbaresco take center stage alongside charming villages and stunning landscapes.

The nearby towns of Avigliana and Giaveno, located only 3 km away, provide all necessary services and a rich calendar of events, markets, and festivals. Here, one can savor traditional Piedmontese dishes and explore local artisan shops. Thus, the area serves as an ideal starting point for a stay that blends relaxation, nature, culture, and authentic flavors.
