Il Papavero is a delightfully rustic apartment in a stunning location amid forest and hazel groves. If you like backwoods tranquillity and don't need too many mod cons, you can't really get better than this place for the money. Apart from distant agricultural machinery or bonfires, you barely see or hear another human; it's mostly lizards, buzzards, woodpeckers & all sorts of insects (purple emperors?). Our only caution is that it is so remote: crow-flight distances are deceptive here as the roads are so tiny and tortuous, and as you'll have hired a car to get here, you presumably won't be planning to sit here all day – though it is tempting just to enjoy the quiet and the changing light across the valley. The road this place is on wasn't marked on any map we could find, and you sort of get used to that driving around the Langhe. Get yourself a really good map before you come here, is our advice. That said, driving here is part of the fun. Just expect to spend a lot of your day doing it. On the subject of driving, Joanne's directions to get here are good, though directions from Alba would be a useful addition as we hired our car there, having got the train from Turin. If you do the same, the new Hertz office is much closer to Mussotto station than to Alba; but get your return ticket before you leave, because there's no ticket office at Mussotto. And if you need to gather your nerve before driving through Alba, we recommend Bar Bun a few yards from Hertz – with parking – for lunch or a chinotto. There's also a handy supermarket on the road out of Alba to stock up for your stay. It's reassuring to know that Joanne is on hand to deal with any problems. On our first night the water supply ran out (owing to exceptional circumstances, but bear in mind that this is the sort of place where that sort of thing can happen). Despite, we think, being out of the country, Joanne answered her phone and made sure the supply was restored by the following lunchtime. Generally the facilities were good: plentiful solar hot water, comfortable bed, nice linen. Even a couple of decent wine glasses. All in all, we'd probably rate this place at four-and-a-half stars if that were possible.

Wer Ruhe sucht, ist hier richtig. Abseits jeder Hektik genießt man hier die Stille mit einem zauberhaften Blick über die freundliche Landschaft. Kulturelle Highlights sind gut erreichbar, gute Restaurants finden sich auch in einiger Entfernung.

Très agréable location au calme dans la région des Langhe. Situation idéale pour découvrir la région vinicole et le pays des noisettes ! Propriétaires sympathiques et de bons conseils. Mais tout se mérite... l accès vers l appartement est une petite route à lacets d environ d 2kms 700...La petite piscine est un grand plus pour les journées les chaudes !

Wow, what a beautiful home. And fantastic hosts! They left us a bottle of spumante, and a welcoming letter. Lovingly and stylishly renovated, this house was an amazing place from which to enjoy the surrounding countryside. Couldn't get enough of the views, including from the house itself. Promised to say thanks from our two boys as well - they enjoyed the pool so much. We can only give our best recommendations to Joannes beautiful house. Regards Claus
