We got the Langhe region, which is like a non-mainstream Chianti, where you can find the "king" of the red wines, Barolo, and more cheeses than you can count!!!

    Hi Katie, why don't you also come to Lake Orta and Lake Maggiore in Piedmont? I am a pearl. In the center of Lake Orta there is the beautiful island of San Giulio, where there is one of the few cloistered convents for nuns still existing. Orta is wonderful. On Lake Maggiore there are Isola Bella, Isola Madre, Isola dei Pescatori (a jewel) where Margherita Yourcenare stayed for years in the only small hotel present. The lakefront that from Arona reaches beyond Stresa (Piedmontese shore) is full of famous luxury hotels such as Des Iles Borromees and the Regina Palace that have seen many famous people stay ... So there are places to see and also full of art. I am, we also eat very well 😊 ... A big hug to you and Connor and lots of kisses to Kiro, really beautiful and good 💖

    Ciao, Katie, in the hills above Varenna is a 3 star albergo si chiama, Eremo Gaudia. Not fancy accommodations, but spectacular views. My husband and I did several hikes in these hills and they are, believe me, breathtaking! The small albergo has a wedding chapel (you take a funicular to go even higher to reach it) and i panorami sono mozzafiato! You have probably left by now, but when you return, hike up to Albergo Eremo Gaudia...you won't be sorry!
